Weight Loss-Friendly Dessert . . . Because We All Need Dessert

Jump to Comments

I have to confess. Although I usually believe in cooking everything we make from scratch (within reason), my strong commitment to losing weight with Shawn has made me do something I normally wouldn’t: eat a packaged dessert or two. See, I have a huge sweet tooth (if you’ve ever read my cooking blog, Sarah’s Cucina Bella, you’ve probably seen one of the sweets benders I’ve gone on.) I love to cook sweets. I love to eat them. I love to look at them.

But I can’t justify eating a slice of cheesecake with this extra weight on me. Seriously. What sense would that make?

So Shawn has turned me on to Jell-o Sugar Free Puddings (I think they are fat free too, but can’t be sure). He whips up a batch of instant pudding and I toss a dollop of Fat Free Cool Whip on top. And you know what? It’s pretty darn tasty.

I also like the Smart Ones desserts. They are pretty tasty. However, they have more calories then the Jell-o puddings. So, they are for days when I am really good.

What do you quench your sweet tooth with?
