Stacked Fruit Salad for One

(Gluten-free)

Ingredients

  • 2 tbsp. fat-free vanilla yogurt

  • 2 tbsp. fat-free ricotta cheese

  • 1/4 cup crushed pineapple, drained

  • 1/4 cup blueberries

  • 1/4 cup mandarin oranges

  • 1/2 small kiwi, peeled and sliced

  • 1 ring spiced apple

Directions

Mix the yogurt and ricotta cheese in a small bowl. Use a small spatula to smooth each of the following ingredients into a parfait glass or a ring mold (place the mold on a plate). Spread 1/4 cup drained pineapple in the bottom. Spread half the yogurt-ricotta mixture over the pineapple. Top with a layer of blueberries. Mandarin orange segments come next, then another yogurt-ricotta layer. Arrange slices of peeled kiwi. Top with the spiced apple ring. Cover loosely and refrigerate, unless you're ready to eat it at once. If you use the ring mold, some juice may leak out during refrigeration. Use a paper towel to dry the plate just before serving.
