Stonyfield Yogurt… Good Morning Parfait

October 22, 2015 · by Carrie Trax ·

2015.10.18@15.50.34._K3I5238Yogurt is one of my favorite morning meals.  I have enjoyed it with just a spoon right out of the container, with fresh fruit or topped with homemade granola.  This morning I decided to make a parfait with fresh strawberries and my Homemade Baked Oatmeal.  Inspired by Stonyfield Yogurt who sponsored breakfast at the International Food Blogger Conference in Seattle last month.  At the conference we started off our first morning bright and early with a breakfast bar sponsored by Stonyfield Yogurt.   Pineapple Banana Smoothie and a Mixed Berry Smoothie Bowl, both made using Stonyfield Organic Greek Yogurt were two of the morning treats we enjoyed.  But the most unique parfait at the breakfast bar was in a Martina glass, a savory dish with beets, citrus and dill on top of Stonyfield Organic Greek Yogurt.  So simple just layer some Stonyfield Organic Greek plain yogurt in the bottom of a glass and top with some shredded beets, fresh orange segments and a sprig of dill.  Here is my Stonyfield inspired parfait in one of my glass canning jars.

Good Morning Parfait ~ Makes one parfait2015.10.18@15.51.50._K3I5242
5.3 oz container of your favorite Stonyfield Organic Greek Yogurt
4 strawberries, cleaned and sliced
1/2 cup Baked Oatmeal*

Start by layering 1/4 cup of Baked Oatmeal in the bottom of a 1/2 pint glass canning jar.  Add 1/2 of the Stonyfield Greek Yogurt and 3 of the sliced strawberries.  Spoon in the remaining Baked Oatmeal and yogurt.  Top with the last sliced strawberry.  Get a spoon and enjoy.  These would be great for a family brunch and you can make them earlier in the day!

*I like making a batch of the Baked Oatmeal and placing in small freezer containers to pull out whenever I am ready to make these parfaits or just to enjoy with fresh strawberries and milk.

Baked Oatmeal with Fresh Strawberries

June 10, 2013 · by Carrie Trax ·

Baked Oatmeal

My favorite morning meal this time of year when the strawberries are Fresh From Oregon is Baked Oatmeal.   This is not the typical oatmeal you may be used to, it is a fluffy brown bowl of oatmeal that tastes like you are eating an oatmeal cookie.  The only oats I use in my oatmeal is Bob’s Red Mill and they are made right here in Oregon.  Bob’s Red Mill Whole Grain Store and Visitors Center is located just 15 minutes from Portland, Oregon.  As you arrive at the store you will see it is a big red barn with a large water wheel out front.  When you enter the store you will see rows of Bob’s Red Mill products,  bulk foods, kitchen essentials and more.  You will also get the great aroma of fresh baked bread and more coming from their kitchen.  So if you are not from Oregon and ever come for a visit this is a must see stop you need to add to your list.  If you can not get to the store you can get everything online and shipped right to your house or check their store locator to find a store near you that carries their product.

Baked Oatmeal with Strawberries
3/4 cup canola oil
1 cup sugar
3 large eggs
3 cups milk
1 teaspoon salt
1 1/2 tablespoons baking powder
4 1/2 cups Bob’s Red Mill quick cooking rolled oats
1/4 cup brown sugar
1 teaspoon cinnamon

In large bowl beat together the oil and sugar with a hand whisk.  Mix in eggs and milk until combined.  With a large spoon add the oats, salt and baking powder, mix well.  Spray 4 small casseroles dishes with baking spray and divide oatmeal mixture evenly between dishes.  Divide the brown sugar and cinnamon and sprinkle over top of each oatmeal. Cover each with foil and place in refrigerate at least 8 hours or overnight.  This is a must the oatmeal needs time to absorb the liquid.

Preheat oven to 350 degrees.  Baked covered  for 20 minutes, remove foil and bake another 15 minutes and remove from the oven.  Let set 5 minutes and with a fork mix the outer part of the oatmeal with the center part.  Top with your strawberries or any fresh fruit and enjoy!

This also freezers well, I portion it into small freezer containers and place in the freezer for up to 3 months (If it lasts that long.)  The night before I place it in my refrigerator to thaw.  The next morning  put the oatmeal in a microwave safe bowl add just a little milk to moisten and cover with some plastic wrap.  Heat for 30 seconds, give it a stir and heat for another 30 seconds.  Fluff with a fork and it is ready to enjoy.
