Virtuous Dessert Challenge

[pegkerr]

Perhaps, like me, you have not yet let go of your New Year's resolution to lose weight. Give me a recipe for your favorite guilt-free dessert. Something you really like, which is easy to fix, but won't adhere immediately to your hips. I need some new ideas.

Here's one I had tonight:

Glazed Grapefruit

1 medium grapefruit
2 tsp orange marmalade (I use Smucker's Low Sugar)
1/4 tsp cinnamon

Preheat broiler. Cut grapefruit in half. Combine orange marmalade and cinnamon and spread over grapefruit.

Set grapefruit 4 to 6 inches from heat and broil 3 to 4 minutes, until carmelized and nicely glazed. Serve warm.

Here's another one I use a lot:

Microwave Apple Crisp

1 medium tart cooking apple (like Granny Smith)
1 TB orange juice concentrate
2 TB Quick oats
1 TB wheat germ
1 TB chopped nuts

Core, peel and chop apple into bite sized chunks. Melt the 1 TB orange juice concentrate in the microwave for 15-30 seconds, add the other ingredients and mix them together, and then sprinkle over chopped apple. Microwave for 2 minutes. Serve warm.
