    Mini meringue nests, a tablespoon of low fat vanilla yoghurt, 5 raspberries (I use frozen) and half a passion fruit... About 40 calories depending on your brands. If I want indulgence, I swap yoghurt for icecream.... About 5 extra calories.... Sometimes I have 2!!!!

    B&J's Frozen Yoghurts :D

    I love those. Sadly I have only ever seen Chocolate Fudge Brownie. I would like for them to make a Baked Alaska version.
    The problem with these is that they are quite high in sugar.


    I have another suggestion, I've never tried it myself, but you could try a 0% Fat Greek Yoghurt. It only has 4g sugar per 100g. Try adding some whey protein of a certain flavor. That's what I was thinking of doing, getting a tub of protein powder and using it in soya milk, Greek yoghurts, etc. Might get the Chocolate version.

    My kids love this ... 1 Box of Sugar Free Cake Mix (I use Pillsbury Devils Food) and 1 can of Room Temp Diet Soda ( I use Diet Black Cherry Kroger Brand). Pour cake mix into a large mixing bowl and slowly pour the soda in and mix until well blended and
    bake as usual. You don't need to add oil eggs or water, just the cake mix and soda. I make cupcakes so that portion control is easier for us. Sometimes we like to use the Sugar Free Whipped Topping, but most of the time we eat them naked.

    I also bake Sugar Free Cake mix or the Low Fat Brownie mix with one 15oz can of pumpkin. Just put the cake mix and pumpkin in a large mixing bowl and whip it very good and bake!!! I use the Yellow cake when I'm in the mood for pumpkin bread. I add a little cinnamon and vanilla extract to to mix. When I am having a chocolate craving I use the Devils Food or the Brownie mix. The Brownie mix is more dense, almost like fudge.

    Oatmeal Cookies (Clean Eating Magazine)


    Nonstick cooking spray
    1/2 canola oil
    1/3 cup plus 2T. sucanat
    1 egg white
    3/4 tsp. vanilla
    3 T. water
    2 cups old fashioned oatmeal Quaker oatmeal (large flakes)
    2/3 cup whole wheat flour
    1/4 tsp. sea salt
    1/2 tsp. baking soda
    2/3 cup raisins
    1 tsp. cinnamon

    Preheat oven to 350. Grease baking sheet with cooking spray (I did not grease mine). In a bowl hand mix oil and sucanat. Add egg whites, vanilla and water, mix well. Add oats, flour, salt, baking soda, raisins and cinnamon, and mix until just blended to retain the texture of the oats. Drop by teaspoonfuls on baking sheets and bake for 10-15 or until bottoms are lightly browned. Sometimes I add chopped dark chocolate (70% cocoa)

    when you say a can of pumpkin do you mean like condensed pumpkin soup?... thats the only kind of canned pumpkin we have here

    Scrumptious Chocolate Peanut Butter Cottage Cheese
    Submitted by: EAGLES17


    Yes- that says "scrumptious" and "cottage cheese" together. A protein packed, super easy, yet savory snack that will leave you wanting more (at least that's what it did to me)! I'll admit, I was doubtful at first when I found it on 'The Cottage Cheese Page,' but TRY IT, it's well worth it!

    Minutes to Prepare: 1
    Number of Servings: 1


    Ingredients
    1/2 c. nonfat cottage cheese
    1-2 tsp. peanut butter
    1 tsp. cocoa powder
    1 tsp. vanilla extract
    1 packet Splenda



    Directions
    *Makes 1 serving, although you'll want 2!*

    1. Mix all of the ingredients in a bowl, and stir until well combined.
    2. If you prefer it warm, pop it in the microwave for a few seconds. If not, dig in!

    I have used the pumpkin with cake mixes and it does well. It is just canned pumpkin but sometimes it is hard to find. it is plentiful around Thanksgiving/Christmas. You might find a store that carries it year round.
