Recipe: Breakfast Oatmeal Parfait

Breakfast Oatmeal Parfait
rec.food.recipes/CLEPPER (1994)

I have a really nice recipe for a "breakfast parfait" for want of a better name. This is an adaptation of one made in the Nearly Normals restaurant in Corvallis, Oregon.

Prepare ahead of time:
1 cup quick cook oats
2 Tbsp. unsalted sunflower seeds
2 Tbsp. raisins
1 cup apple juice
1 Tbsp. crushed walnut pieces (optional)

Mix the above, let sit in refrigerator overnight.

Next day, stir up your oatmeal mixture, and spoon out 1 cup into bowl

Add: 1/2 cup fruited yogurt (your choice of flavors)
Top with sliced bananas (or your choice of fruit in season)
And drizzle with fresh raspberry sauce (or again, fresh fruit in season simply crushed or put through the blender)

(Of course when I'm cutting back on fats or don't have all the fruits handy, just the oatmeal mixture (without seeds/nuts) topped with non-fat yogurt makes a great breakfast!

Enjoy! Also makes a great dessert!
