Raspberry Honey Parfait

Sometimes the quickest and easiest things to make always end up being the sweetest.  This is a treat I often throw together for breakfast when I have some extra fruit on hand.  It's quick, easy and won't hurt your diet!  Instead of sugar I drizzled a bit of honey over the raspberries for some added sweetness and whipped together some Greek yogurt and fat-free Cool Whip for a creamy, yet light texture.  Top your parfait with granola of your choice and you've got dessert for breakfast!
