Pistachio Parfaits are an effortless dessert that are festive enough for St. Patrick’s Day.
I’m a sucker for pudding. I always have been. I’m especially a sucker for pistachio pudding. I’ve always loved the stuff since I was a kid. I know it can be a polarizing flavor. I really made these for me. I love the flavor and they are green.

Do you celebrate St. Patrick’s Day? I always have. Even before my last name (thanks to my husband) turned Irish. I’m past the age of thinking green beer or kegs and eggs at an Irish pub are a good idea. So I decided to make a dessert that the whole family could enjoy this year. And if pistachio is not your thing use vanilla pudding. The rainbow on top makes this little dessert festive enough.
