Go For Healthy Desserts
Go to: Previous Article Next Article
Its always satisfying to end your meal with a great dessert but the sad truth is that many of them are laced with sugar, can make you fat and are not healthy. Still, that doesn't mean you should not have dessert anymore. The good news is that there are healthy desserts. To convince you, below are some healthy dessert alternatives that can satisfy your sweet tooth without giving you extra pounds:
Go for fresh fruit. Mix low fat yogurt with low fat whipped cream and put in on some fresh fruit. Add a little cinnamon and you're ready to go. Or cut an apple or peach in half. Apply some canola oil spray, sprinkle it with brown sugar and grill until its soft and fragrant. Top it off with sugar-free syrup or low fat whipped topping.
Want more? Put a scoop of fat-free vanilla ice cream into a bowl. Add your favorite sugar-free coffee syrup that comes in yummy flavors like almond, vanilla, caramel or raspberry. Sprinkle lightly with nuts and you're done.
Another good dessert is fat-free and sugar-free Jell-O. This is very affordable and only has 5 calories per serving. You can combine this with some canned fruit or non-fat dairy whipped topping. You can also treat yourself to some fat-free or sugar-free frozen yogurt. This tastes great and has only a fraction of the calories that ice cream has.
To save a bundle, why not have sugar-free chewing gum for dessert? This will satisfy your sweet tooth and keep your waistline healthy at the same time. When dining out, a good strategy is to order just one dessert and split it with your partner. Thus, you get only half the fat and half the calories. Lastly, try eating dessert just after a 1/2-hour walk. Do so after breakfast or dinner. If you still crave for dessert when you return, do so since you've had a good exercise.
