    My go-to is banana "pudding". Perfect because its sweet, no added sugar, and soooooper lazy :) for a pure and simple version, banana blended/food processed with psyllium husk. Fave add-ins are peanut butter and cocoa powder, but berries are yummy too. Sometimes thin with milk to desired consistency.
    Might sound gross to some, but its my nightly treat and I can't go to bed without it or ill stay awake thinking about it :embarassed:

    Popsicles like Dryer’s/Edy’s Fruit bars have around 80 calories per bar (depending on flavor - http://www.dreyers.com/fruitbars) and they are VERY tasty! You can also get Fudgesicles and Creamsicle that have between 60 and 100 calories (http://www.popsicle.com/product/category/107675/fudgsicle).

    In the past I have sliced up apples and warmed them in a frying pan with some cinnamon, yummy.
  • I make cheesecake with fat free cream cheese, Greek yogurt, and vanilla protein powder (among other ingredients) that tastes no different from the high calorie/high sugar/high fat ones...

    Recipe?

    Sometimes I will take brownie/cake mix and instead of oil I will add the same amount of unsweetened applesauce.
