# Expert Advice:

01 -

It takes 10 minutes but tastes like you spent way more effort than you actually did.
The cashew butter melts into the yogurt creating this lush, almost dessert-like texture without any guilt.
It's flexible enough to use whatever fruit is hanging around your kitchen at the moment.

02 -

Don't stir the whole parfait together right before eating—that's the one mistake that kills it; the layers are the whole point.
If your cashew butter is separated with oil on top, stir it back in first, or that oil will pool at the bottom and things get slippery.
