    i also make a chocolate brownie cake (no bake) with peanut butter, hazelnuts, dates, honey, coconut oil and cacao (that's it!) - if you want the recipe let me know, it's always a hit with my family!

    Can I please have the recipe Kristen? Sound amazing xxx

    Love the fondue idea! Grilled pineapple is delicious with a small amount of light vanilla ice cream. I have seen tons of recipes for Black bean brownies lately, those might be an option.

    oh my God, you people are amazing. I never thought that there could be such a variety of things. I think I'm gonna mix n match a couple of the suggestions depending on what I have or fancy. But I think maybe some sort of fruit and yoghurt (I make my own) topped with something like meringues or nuts... Now I'm spoilt for choice this time my problem is "which one?" Lol.

    Oh I also found another idea online: frozen yogurt fruit kebabs.

    Try frozen yogurt pie. My family has been making them for years. I use all light ingredients. You can use any fruit you like, any yogurt you like. So good! Just take it out before dinner to thaw a little if you forget serve it with forks instead of spoons. soupspiceeverythingnice.blogspot.com/2014/05/yogurt-pie.html

    Oh YUM.

    Check Skinnytaste too. I think I'd make a fruit tart of some sort (graham cracker crust, a layer of lightly sweetened cream cheese, and fresh fruit), or yeah, fruit pizza.

    How about individual meringue nests either whole or crushed with a dollop of cream (or 0% Greek yogurt which will look the same for those watching the calories) and lots of berries and fruit. You can always add a drizzle of honey if needed. :0)

    Just to let you guys know... I made a fruit salad cocktail with peaches, strawberries and melon chunks with freshly squeezed orange juice. And to go with that- yoghurt (homemade) mixed in with honey and vanilla.

    Not immensely exciting, but tastes surprisingly good. And the yoghurt taste so much like cream its unbelievable.

    Everyone's happy.

    I see a lot of people reference these two sites: http://chocolatecoveredkatie.com/recipes/ & http://www.skinnytaste.com/2007/07/dessert-recipes.html I haven't tried any of the recipes.

    They have the best ideas!

    1carton whipping cream whip up to almost firm and a package of any flavor sugar free jello or pudding put in the cream and mix till firm. Separate in to a cup a day and enjoy it's so good you can add fresh fruit also. if you use 2 cartons whipping cream add 2 boxes of jello or pudding.
