Welcome to Brunch Week.
Today I have something for all you folks in a hurry in the morning.
Which is likely 99.99% of you.
I mean who are we kidding, most of us are rushing around in the morning.
Some of us find we're too busy to eat. I'd like to change that. I mean who doesn't have 3 minutes in the morning for yummy overload.
I know I make time for yummy overload.
It's the perfect start to any day.

So pretty! Small one would be thrilled!
Kim Beaulieu
Thanks so much. Small one will love these. They are so good.
Suzanne
These parfaits looks so easy and delicious! I really do need to make more time for myself in the morning to have breakfast. Is there a particular brand of cherry jam that you like to use? My favorite was black forest cherry preserves that I had in Germany, but sadly, it is difficult to find in the U.S. I loved that it wasn't too sweet.
Kim Beaulieu
Thanks Suzanne. My sister tends to send me tons of cherry jam. I have some from a little place in B.C. called Horstings that I love. Then I have a couple that are homemade I found at farmers markets. For cheap but good I like the twice the fruit one but for some reason it's practically impossible to find the cherry version here. I also have a sour cherry one from Horstings I sometimes use. Today's choice was Smallwoods Harvest Sweet Cherry Jam. I honestly think I have 12 kinds in my fridge.
Helene Dsouza I Masala Herb
Ah yes I am one of the 99% with little time at hand in the morning. Even the squirrels on our mango tree have proper breakfast in the morning. ^.^ That's one heck of a gorgeous morning breakfast treat Kim. I am all for your parfait! =P
Kim Beaulieu
Lol Helene, I think the birds and squirrels here eat better than us too.
Thanks lady. I just love these things. I'm not typically a breakfast lover but stuff like this I can do.

That's the kind of breakfast I can serve Dudette without her turning her nose up at it. It looks fantastic!
Kim Beaulieu
She would love this. It's so fun to make too. If she likes bacon and/or potatoes tune in tomorrow. Sort of a cool one coming up.
john@kitchenriffs
Why have I never had parfaits for breakfast? I gotta start having these! They look terrific. Truly good stuff - thanks.
Kim Beaulieu
Lol John. You must. These bad boys get even a breakfast hater like me eating breakfast. I love parfaits way too much.
Allison (Spontaneous Tomato)
Your parfaits look lovely! Love the idea to add jam to mix things up a little, so it's not just yogurt and granola... but still so quick to throw together in the mornings. 🙂
Kim Beaulieu
Thanks Allison. I am such a big cherry fan that I'm always dreaming up ways to sneak it into my diet.
Tara
Always excited to come over here and see what you have been up to. Again a delicious recipe!!
Kim Beaulieu
Awe thanks Tara. I feel the same way about you. xx

OK Bestie... LET'S EAT! I'm all about the cheery cherry love! <3
I need to get me some of those gorgeous parfait glasses, too
Kim Beaulieu
I'm in. I adore cherry. It's right up there with peaches. And turtles.
You do woman. Should I talk to da man?
mellissa @ ibreatheimhungry
Hello Gorgeous!!! Love the cherry jam idea for something different!
Kim Beaulieu
Thanks my dear. I am so in love with cherry jam, and cherry granola, and cherry twizzlers....

What's better than dessert for breakfast?
