This is as much a dessert as it is a breakfast. Seriously, when’s the last time you had dessert for breakfast, and didn’t feel guilty about it? These parfaits taste like a decadent frozen dessert, but only involve layers of overnight chia-seed pudding, frozen banana cream, and an array of mix-ins (or you can also plop everything in a bowl if you prefer not to layer them).
