How about a super yummy dessert cone?

or ….. a decadent looking parfait? At first glance these treats appear to be high sugar, high fat party desserts, but they are actually Healthy Snacks in Disguise! (I get nervous calling anything healthy — this recipe still has sugar, but it’s a healthier alternative to many snacks. Please review the nutrition facts for yourself below.)

*I was chosen by Family Review Network to come up with a healthy, kid-friendly, California Grape Healthy Recipe for The California Table Grape Commission and was provided a Green, Black, Red cookbook and a $10 to shop for fresh grapes from California for my recipe. This recipe was created by me and all opinions are mine alone.
