Dessert

This is the easiest dessert - literally use a store bought refrigerator pie crust, mix 1.5 cups any fruit with some lemon juice, Splenda, corn starch and bake to delicious perfection.

Who thought that mixing a bit of chocolate granola into my pizza dough would turn into this delicious banana split pizza - seriously tastes like a chocolate chip cookie!

I love all of the Safe + Fair granolas, but I really puffy heart the blueberry cinnamon.  So good.  I was thinking of a different kind of “brunch” pizza I could make with the granola – but I had to make it sweet and savory because that’s my jam. 😀 For two pizzettes, as I am calling them, I used 1/3 cup of the granola. ...

My scone recipe didn't quite work out as a scone, but they made a great cookie - or Scookie! The best of both worlds! Only 2 points for one, 3 points for 2 and 5 points for 3.

These 3 smart point fruit tarts with low calorie pastry cream will be your new go to dessert. Perfect for any occasion!

I never really had a sweet tooth until a few years ago.  Like seriously I could pass by cakes, cupcakes, etc. I was a salty girl through and through – salt and vinegar chips, cheetos, doritos – you name it I loved it!

But I remembered that I have goals and I am going to crush this last quarter of 2018.  Guess what –...

Classic apple pie is probably my favorite pie of all, although truth be told, pretty sure there isn’t a pie I don’t like.  One pie on my list to try though?  Strawberry rhubarb!  Tony had a taste for it towards the end of the summer of 2014, and for some reason by then, I couldn’t find rhubarb anywhere.  And well, after that, he didn’t even...

I had another great weigh in this week! I am tracking all my points and that makes all the difference. I still eat all the things I love, but stick within the points. I posted this picture below and asked how I handle my points. I get 23 points a day and 35 extra weekly points. That’s 196 points a week. Some days I may...
