This recipe was created by Cat Cora, from the TV show "Iron Chef America," and is featured in the cookbook Great Chefs Cook Vegan (Gibbs Smith 2008)

Kiwi parfait
5 kiwis, peeled and cut into bite-size pieces
1 pint soy yogurt [use coconut yogurt for soy-free]
1 cup crushed graham crackers [use health valley or other gluten-free grahams for gluten-free]
Curried cashews (recipe below)

For the curried cashews
1 cup raw cashews
1/2 teaspoon canola oil
1/2 teaspoon curry powder
Salt to taste

For the curried cashews, preheat oven to 350 degrees. Place cashews on an unlined baking sheet and bake for 12 minutes, or until fragrant and slightly browned. Toss nuts with canola oil and curry powder in a bowl. Add salt, if desired, and then cool.

To assemble parfait, place a spoonful of kiwi pieces in the bottom of a martini glass. Top with soy yogurt to cover, and then add a layer of graham crackers.

Notice how the layers are shaping from the outside of the glass. Repeat layers of kiwi and yogurt. Top with curried cashews and a few kiwi pieces.

Serves 6.
