Though most caramel apples might be off limits, this sweet snack sure isn’t. It’s easy to throw together and great any time of the day . . . even for breakfast! Next time you go to a warehouse or club store, pick up some clear plastic containers with lids. You can make a few of these at a time and store them in your refrigerator for a few days so they’re ready when you are.

　　

Ingredients

makes 1 serving

　　1/2 cup fat-free artificially sweetened or naturally sweetened apple turnover or apple-flavored yogurt (I used Yoplait)

　　2 tablespoons low-fat granola without raisins

　　1/3 cup chopped apple (about 1/2 small apple)

　　1 1/2 teaspoons fat-free caramel-flavored topping

　　

Step 1

Spoon the yogurt into a sundae dish or small, deep bowl. Top the yogurt evenly with the apples, followed by the granola. Drizzle the caramel over the top. Serve immediately.
