Individual fruit puddings made with guava juice, another good source of lycopene, are topped with yogurt and heart-beneficial almonds.

Ingredients

  • 1/4 cup cornstarch

  • 4 1/4 cups guava juice

  • 1/4 cup sugar

  • 2 teaspoons fresh lemon juice

  • 6 tablespoons plain low-fat yogurt

  • 6 tablespoons sliced almonds, toasted

Directions

  • Whisk cornstarch and 1/4 cup guava juice in a bowl until smooth; set aside.
  • Bring the remaining 4 cups guava juice and the sugar to a boil in a medium saucepan, stirring until sugar has dissolved. Reduce heat. Stir in cornstarch mixture; simmer, stirring occasionally, until mixture is thick enough to coat the back of a wooden spoon, 4 to 5 minutes. Stir in lemon juice.
  • Pour mixture through a fine sieve into a bowl; discard solids. Divide among six 6-ounce ramekins or bowls. Refrigerate puddings, uncovered, 30 minutes. Cover loosely with plastic wrap, and refrigerate until set, at least 3 hours (up to 3 days).
  • To serve, top each pudding with 1 tablespoon each yogurt and almonds.
