Ingredients
- Cooking spray
- 1 1/3 cups seedless black grapes
- 1 1/3 cups seedless red grapes
- 1 1/3 cups seedless green grapes
- 3 tablespoons sugar
- 2 cups plain fat-free Greek-style yogurt, divided
- 1/4 cup walnut halves, toasted and coarsely chopped, divided
- 8 teaspoons honey, divided

Instructions

- Spoon 1/4 cup yogurt into the bottom of each of 4 parfait glasses. Top each serving with about 1/3 cup grapes, 1 1/2 teaspoons walnuts, and 1 teaspoon honey. Repeat layers with remaining ingredients; garnish with sliced mint, if desired.
