Healthy Mango Parfaits
This is a simple, no bake, no cook recipe. My kind of dessert!
I have made this parfait before with other fruits like strawberries, blueberries, rasberries and a combination of them. With all the mangoes, why not use mangoes.
I made mine with light ingredients to save some calories. It tasted great, but you can always use original ingredients.
One note - make sure your cream cheese is very soft or you will get lumps in your pudding. Don't rely on your mixer to make it smooth - I tried that. Didn't work. You could also use other pudding flavors, like French Vanilla or White Cheesecake.
I placed mine in whiskey glasses instead of parfait ones. I had to go with real whipped cream however. The calories are about the same, but the taste is so much better.
