YOGURT PARFAIT WITH MULLED RED WINE SYRUP, ORANGES, AND ALMONDS
Another parfait idea, using the same principle and base (Greek-style yogurt) but different accompanying layers. Feel free to use higher-fat yogurt if desired. I like to use Cara Cara oranges, those vibrant pink-fleshed ones, but blood oranges are deliciously striking here, and regular navel oranges or ruby red grapefruit are no slouches, either.

Steps:
- Toast the almond slices in a small dry skillet over medium-high heat, stirring constantly, until they are lightly browned and begin to smell toasty, 2 to 3 minutes. Watch carefully; nuts can burn quickly. Transfer to a dish to cool.
- Use a chef's knife to slice off both ends of the orange. Stand the orange on one end, hold it steady with one hand, and slice from the top edge downward along the curve of the fruit, cutting away both the peel and the pith but leaving as much of the flesh as possible. Working over a bowl to catch the juices, hold the orange in one hand and use a paring knife in the other to cut between the sections, detaching each section of fruit from its surrounding membrane. Let the sections fall into the bowl as you work.
- Drop a few orange sections into the bottom of a large-bowled wineglass or champagne flute. Drizzle with a tablespoon of red wine syrup and top with a few almonds and then 2 or 3 tablespoons of yogurt. Repeat several times until the ingredients are used up, ending with oranges, syrup, and almonds on top if possible, and eat.
