Since itโs “Dr. Seuss Week” at our house, I knew that I wanted to create a red-and-white โCat in the Hatโ-themed treat, but I also wanted it to taste great. My solution? These absolutely delicious โCat in the Hatโ Strawberry Cheesecake Breakfast Parfaits. They sound totally decadent, but theyโre actually a healthy way to start your day.
The โcheesecakeโ is really just some protein-rich ricotta cheese, mixed with a little bit of vanilla, sugar, and salt for extra flavor. Add some diced strawberries and a bit of strawberry preserves and you have an amazingly tasty breakfast thatโs very similar to a fancy, rich cheesecakeโฆminus most of the calories. Serve these with graham crackers or toast for a balanced breakfast or snack.
The parfaits pictured are actually โminiโ parfaits that I served in little shot glasses. Theyโre perfectly kid-sized, and would also be cute on a dessert or breakfast buffet at a party. Enjoy these year-round, even when itโs not Dr. Seussโs birthday!
