How to Make Orange Lemon Parfaits Low Fat Low Sugar

  1. In a small saucepan, sprinkle 1 tablespoon of unflavored gelatin over 1/2 cup of freshly squeezed orange juice.
  2. Place the saucepan over medium-high heat and bring to a simmer, stirring constantly until the gelatin is completely dissolved. This should take about 1-2 minutes.
  3. Remove from heat and set aside to cool slightly.
  4. While the gelatin mixture cools, combine the following ingredients in a blender: 1 cup plain nonfat Greek yogurt, 1/4 cup freshly squeezed lemon juice, 1/4 cup orange juice, 1 tablespoon honey (or to taste), and 1 teaspoon lemon zest.
  5. Slowly add the cooled gelatin mixture to the blender and blend until smooth and well combined.
  6. Divide the mixture evenly among individual serving glasses or parfait dishes.
  7. Refrigerate for at least 2 hours, or until set, before serving. Garnish with fresh orange slices and/or a sprinkle of lemon zest for an extra touch of elegance.
