Hungry Girl Banana-Choco-Rama Oatmeal Parfait

The pudding should be a product like Jell-o sugar-free chocolate pudding snacks (60 calories each). I used a 5-grain cereal instead of old-fashioned oats and dark chocolate sugar-free pudding. Cold oatmeal was okay, but next time I will not chill the oatmeal and have a warm parfait -- afterall warm pudding is so good, why not give it a try?
