Ingredients for Apple Orange And Yogurt Delight

  • 1 (11-ounce) can mandarin oranges
  • Granny Smith Apple
  • Nonfat Vanilla Yogurt
  • ¼ cup wheat germ (optional)
  • 1 teaspoon honey (optional)

How to Make Apple Orange And Yogurt Delight

  1. Drain 1 (11-ounce) can mandarin oranges, reserving 2 tablespoons of juice. Roughly chop 1 medium apple (about 1 cup, unpeeled).
  2. Combine the chopped apple and drained mandarin oranges in a medium bowl.
  3. Optionally, add ½ medium banana (about ½ cup), sliced.
  4. If desired, add 1 tablespoon of the reserved mandarin orange juice to coat the apples and prevent browning.
  5. Divide the fruit mixture evenly between two small containers (approximately 1 ½ cups total).
  6. Top each container with ½ cup of vanilla yogurt (nonfat or Greek).
  7. Cover and refrigerate overnight (or for at least 2 hours).
  8. (Optional) Before serving, top one parfait with ¼ cup wheat germ and 1 teaspoon of honey.

Chef's Tip for Extra Flavor

Small additions can make a big impact! Try a sprinkle of fresh herbs, a dash of your favorite spice blend, or a squeeze of citrus just before serving to really enhance the flavors of your dish.
