RECIPE: WATERMELON BREAKFAST LASAGNA

Like most of my favorite watermelon-related recipes, this one combines two things I love: watermelon and lasagna. It’s also related to one of my favorite meals – breakfast.

And while this “lasagna” contains none of the sausage, pasta, and gooey mozzarella cheese that make the real thing so delicious, it more than makes up for it with layers of other goodies. I recently prepared this recipe, and even though it looked only vaguely like lasagna, it’s still a worthy addition to my morning meal rotation.

Like mom’s lasagna, you can probably tweak the recipe by adding all sorts of other ingredients to it. If anyone has any ideas for additions, leave a comment!

WATERMELON BREAKFAST LASAGNA

INGREDIENTS

4 cups cornflakes
2 cups minced watermelon
2 cups fresh blueberries or sliced strawberries
2 cups vanilla yogurt

DIRECTIONS

Place 1/3 of the cornflakes in an even layer in the bottom of an 8 X 8 serving dish. Mix together the watermelon, blueberries and yogurt and evenly spoon half the mixture over the cornflake layer. Sprinkle another layer of cornflakes over the yogurt and then layer the remaining yogurt over that. Sprinkle the remaining cornflakes evenly over the top.
