Creamy Greek Yogurt & Mango Parfait
A refreshing, probiotic-rich snack. This parfait combines thick Greek yogurt with juicy, diced mango to provide calcium for bone growth and Vitamin C for immunity. No added sugar—just natural fruit sweetness.
Ingredients
- 120 grams Plain Greek Yogurt
- 50 grams Ripe Mango
Instructions
- Select a ripe mango (it should feel slightly soft when pressed).
- Peel the mango and cut the flesh away from the large middle pit.
- Dice the mango into very small, uniform cubes (about 0.5cm to 1cm). This size is perfect for practicing the pincer grasp.
- Place 3-4 tablespoons of full-fat, plain Greek yogurt into a small baby-safe bowl.
- Top the yogurt with the diced mango pieces.
- Optional Texture Boost: Sprinkle a teaspoon of shredded unsweetened coconut or crushed toasted oats on top for added sensory exploration.
- Stir slightly so the mango is coated but still visible. Serve chilled.
