PARFAIT CUPS

Use these 5 oz. clear plastic appetizer cups (comes in a pkg of 20 with spoons included) to make yogurt parfaits. Perfect for a baby shower brunch!

Serving Options:

  • Simply add granola, then yogurt, more granola, and top with fruit.

  • Fill with berries - strawberries, blueberries, raspberries - and top with whipped cream

  • Sprinkle crushed graham crackers in the bottom, add vanilla or chocolate pudding. Top with whipped cream. You could also layer it like a parfait - a layer of crushed graham crackers, a layer of chocolate pudding, another layer of graham crackers, a layer of vanilla pudding

  • Blend frozen fruit (strawberries. bananas, mango, etc) add milk, water or almond milk and blend to make a smoothie. Pour into each cup and top with whipped cream and a blueberry

SALAD IN A CUP - Appetizer Cups

  • You can also the plastic appetizer cups with colorful salads! Add lettuce, carrots, cucumbers, celery, tomatoes - whatever fixins' you choose. Add a bit of Italian, Ranch or oil and vinegar.

  • Or you could do a Caesar Salad with romaine lettuce, parmesan cheese, Caesar dressing and croutons.

  • Pasta salad is another idea - cooked spiral pasta, Olive Garden Italian dressing (in the bottle - from the grocery store), sliced black olives, cubed pepper jack cheese, chopped salami, marinated artichoke hearts, grated parmesan cheese. So delicious! (this is my go-to salad for any get together)
