On-The-Go Summer Watermelon ParfaitI love watermelon! Living in NYC, where everything is fast-paced. The best time to enjoy watermelon is on-the-go. This time I am sharing a 10-minute on-the-go summer watermelon parfait recipe.

On-The-Go Summer Watermelon Parfait-IngredientsThe ingredients for this parfait are very simple! Besides greek yogurt, granola and watermelon, I also added fermented glutinous rice for a delicious Asian touch!

fermented glutinous riceFermented glutinous rice is a common Chinese ingredient that can be used to make a variety of Chinese deserts. It’s sweet and sour, great for enhancing the flavor and texture of our watermelon parfait.

Ps: You can find the fermented glutinous rice in most Chinese grocery stores.

On-The-Go Watermelon ParfaitWhat I like to do is making the watermelon parfait for my husband and I the night before and store them with small mason jars in the fridge overnight. The watermelon parfait jars are our perfect on-the-go breakfast the next day!

Here’s a great tip I learned from Watermelon board website: you can eat the whole watermelon! Besides the flesh and juice, watermelon rind can also be used to make dishes. For more information, you can check out this post: Three Ways to Eat Watermelon Rind.
