Easy Red, White, and Blue Trifle

Servings:

I call this easy red, white, and blue trifle an "assembly recipe," because very little cooking is involved. Fresh fruit, yogurt, and berry syrup are layered in a clear bowl for a beautiful presentation. Layer in as much fruit as your bowl will hold, for a refreshing and easy summer dessert.
