Just prior to serving the dessert, take it out of the fridge and sprinkle on the grape nuts.I use fat free Greek yogurt for this recipe but any fat free unflavoured yogurt will do.If you can’t find sugar free / fat free pistachio pudding mix, read the post above for alternatives that can be used.I will sometimes add a couple of chopped up pistachios on top for even more crunch (but extra Smart Points!).
