P90X Banana Scrunch Parfait

I tried this recipe the other day and thought it was absolutely amazing! Breakfasts are sometimes hard for people since most tend to skip it.

Banana Scrunch Parfait 



* 1 Cup plain nonfat yogurt
*1 Scoop vanilla protein powder
* 1/2 cup oats (traditional or quick, not instant)
* 1/2 cup bran flakes cereal, crushed
* 1 Tbsp honey
* 1 banana sliced


Mix protein powder into yogurt and set aside. Mix crushed bran flakes with oats, and heat mixture in skillet on medium heat for about 2 minutes. Drizzle bran flake and oats mixture with honey, stir and heat for about 2 more minutes (until edges of oats are crunchy). You can make as many layers as you like. Scoop some of the bran flake and oats mixture into the bottom of a tall glass, layer with sliced bananas. Scoop some vanilla protein yogurt on top, then repeat the layering process for as many layers as you like… bran/oat, banana, protein yogurt, etc.
