Ingredients
- 1 package of sugar-free instant vanilla pudding mix
- 1/2 cup plain fat-free yogurt
- 1/2 cup skim milk
- 1/2 cup crushed pineapple with juice
- 1/2 cup coconut flakes (optional, for added texture and flavor)
Instructions
-
Combine the Basics: In a large mixing bowl, blend the sugar-free instant vanilla pudding mix with the plain fat-free yogurt and skim milk. Use a whisk to mix thoroughly until the pudding mixture is smooth and well combined.
-
Add the Pineapple: Stir in the crushed pineapple along with its juice into the pudding mixture. Ensure that the pineapple is evenly distributed throughout the pudding for a consistent flavor in every bite.
-
Mix to Perfection: Continue to mix the pudding until the pineapple and juice are fully incorporated. If you’re using coconut flakes, fold them in at this stage for a tropical twist.
-
Chill: Cover the bowl with plastic wrap and refrigerate the pudding for at least 30 minutes. This chilling step allows the flavors to meld and the pudding to set to a creamy consistency.
-
Serve and Enjoy: After chilling, give the pudding a quick stir before serving. Spoon into individual bowls or cups, and garnish with a sprinkle of coconut flakes or a slice of fresh pineapple, if desired.
