This fruity trifle is made with light ingredients like skim milk, fat-free and sugar-free vanilla pudding mix, and light whipped topping.
A low-fat, low-sugar trifle that the whole family will love! I find that the pudding is usually set by the time I am done adding the other layers so it can be eaten right away. If not, chill in the fridge until the pudding is set. Keep refrigerated (especially if it is warm.)

4 cups cold fat-free milk
2 (1 ounce) packages fat-free, sugar-free vanilla pudding mix (such as Jell-O®)

1 (8 ounce) can pineapple tidbits, drained
1 (8 ounce) container light whipped topping (such as Cool Whip®)
½ cup chopped walnuts (Optional)

Whisk fat-free milk and vanilla pudding mix together in a bowl; pour over angel food layer. Sprinkle strawberries and pineapple over pudding layer; spoon whipped topping over fruit layer. Top with walnuts.
Cook’s Notes:
This dessert can be made so many different ways. You can substitute a low fat chocolate cake for the angel food or use any flavor of pudding you like. I haven’t found a fruit yet that doesn’t taste good in here. You can even add a layer of crumbled vanilla wafer cookies on top of the pudding after it sets up.
