Couscous adds great texture to this pretty parfait. Serve it year-round by using whichever fruits are in season.

Ingredients

Uncooked whole wheat couscous

¼ cup(s)

Fat-free sugar-free instant banana pudding and pie filling mix

1 oz

Fat-free skim milk

2 cup(s), cold

Banana

1 large, ripe, sliced

Strawberries

1 cup(s), sliced

Peppermint leaves

Water

Instructions

  1. Bring water to a boil in a microwave-safe bowl in microwave. Carefully remove from microwave and stir in couscous. Cover with plastic wrap and let stand 5 minutes until couscous is tender.
  2. Meanwhile, prepare pudding according to package directions using fat-free milk. Stir in couscous (it is okay if couscous is still warm). Let stand 5 minutes until pudding is set.
  3. To make parfaits, layer about 2 tablespoons pudding, then 2 tablespoons bananas, 2 tablespoons pudding, then 2 tablespoons sliced strawberries in each of 4 tall parfait or other tall thin glasses. Repeat layers once. Garnish with mint sprigs if desired. Serve immediately. Yields 1 parfait per serving.
