It has started out to be an absolutely beautiful March here in Minnesota! We hit a record-setting 70 degrees yesterday in the Twin Cities. Now this type of weather I can handle. Bring on the sunny and 75 for sure. I’m a warm weather girl stuck in this tundra called Minnesota and summer can’t come soon enough. Meanwhile I’ll just sit here and face plant into these light and fruity Lemon Curd Blueberry Parfaits!

I was given the pleasure to sample an array of Sweet Home Farms granolas. OMG yum. The flavors that they have are seriously awesome. They are all natural with no GMO, preservatives or added flavors. So straight up farm fresh here!

I’m prone to loving blueberry flavors so I was drawn to their Blueberry with Flax. I knew I wanted to use that in a Spring type of recipe so what better than using it in these parfaits! To see all their flavors and recipe inspirations, head over here and check them out!

Have you ever tried lemon curd? It is one of the most delicious flavors I have ever put in my mouth. It is so versatile and can be used for toppings, fillings, spreads, parfaits, etc. I decided to turn my curd into a mousse.

Pretty much just blended in whipped cream and made it light and fluffy. Don’t let the curd scare you, its pretty simple and doesn’t have a lot of steps to it. 

The only thing you really need to worry about when making this is it curdling. But if you can keep it from boiling, you’re in the clear!! Anyways, layer that up with some of the granola, top with whipped cream and fresh blueberries and you have yourself a tasty, tart but light treat that can be enjoyed for breakfast, brunch, dessert or any time. 

What would you create with some Sweet Home Farms granola?
