The Hale Groves Team

INGREDIENTS

¼ cup graham cracker crumbs, divided
½ cup Hale grapefruit juice
1 envelop unflavored gelatin
2 packets low-calorie sugar substitute
1 can (8 ounces) crushed pineapple in its own juice
2 small Hale Ruby Red grapefruit
1 cup vanilla yogurt

PREPARATION

Sprinkle 2 tablespoons graham cracker crumbs evenly in bottom of an 8-inch spring form pan.  In small saucepan combine grapefruit juice, gelatin and sugar substitute.  Let stand 1 minute.  Stir over medium heat until gelatin is dissolved, about 1 minute.  Remove from heat.  Drain juice from pineapple; reserve.  Peel and section grapefruit over a bowl to collect the juice.  Reserve 10 grapefruit sections for garnish; cut remainder into small pieces.  Drain juice from grapefruit sections; add to pineapple juice.  (You should have ½ cup; add more grapefruit juice if necessary.)  Stir juices and yogurt into gelatin mixture.  Chill until mixture mounds slightly when dropped from a spoon.  Fold in cut-up grapefruit pieces.  Spoon grapefruit mixture into prepared pan.  Garnish top with reserved sections.  Chill several hours, until set.  Remove sides of pan.  Pat remaining 2 tablespoons crumbs around the side of the torte.

YIELD:  6 servings.
