Your Just Desserts

Posted by Daniel

Sometimes it's wise to skip the dessert. Other times - for example, when your brother-in-law's buying - you have to take advantage of the dessert tray. At home or in a fancy bistro, here are some smart moves.

Stop viewing cookies in black and white:

Put away the Oreos (213 calories and nine grams of fat for four) and try low-fat and no-fat cookies. It’ll not only expand your cookie horizons, it’ll help keep those tasty snacks from sticking to your stomach. Tasty choices: R.W. Frookie Fat-Free Apple Spice Cookies, Entenmann’s Oatmeal Raisin Cookies, Nabisco SnackWell’s Reduced-Fat Chocolate Sandwich Cookies and A Whade of a Snack fat-free fruit bars (fig, apple, blueberry and strawberry) from Fleetwood snacks.

Get Cultures with yogurt:

Substitute nonfat frozen yogurt for ice cream and you’ll save more than seven grams of fat per single-scoop cone. But make sure you look for “nonfat” on the label; some frozen yogurts have as much fat as ice cream.

Dig divine dessert for snack attacks:

Instead of taking a huge gooey hunk of Black Forest cake, go for the dessert of the gods: angel food cake. Get a huge slice of angel food cake topped with sliced fresh strawberries or peaches and a scoop of frozen yogurt. Since angel food cake has no fat, you’ll get the fat only from the yogurt. Not a bad deal for satisfying dessert.
