Greek Yogurt Parfaits

I made this last year for my sweetheart's birthday and completely forgot to get a picture.  I'm not a big consumer of Greek yogurt, but have found one brand that I like (interestingly, a store brand), which is apparently no longer being sold.
  • 1 C vanilla Greek yogurt
  • 2 Tbsp honey
  • 2 Tbsp raisins
  • 2 Tbsp toasted sliced almonds
1.  Spoon one quarter of yogurt into each of two thin glasses or parfait cups.  Top with one quarter of honey, raisins, and almonds.  Repeat these layers and serve.

Robyn's notes: he had requested a birthday dessert without sugar, and since we were having lamb with a pomegranate glaze for dinner I thought this would be light and refreshing to follow it.  It had the added benefit of being very quick, especially nice after having spent the afternoon preparing and cooking the entree.  I used golden raisins, but either sort will work.  

*** 3 Stars: Good. At least one of us liked this enough for me to make it again, but not often
