]]> strawberriesLast week I gave you a recipe for a yummy low fat chocolate chip cookie dessert.  This week try this low fat strawberry crunch recipe.  I’ve never made it before, but my aunt gave me this recipe and I’ve heard it’s yummy.  I’m looking forward to trying it.  It’s a perfect time to try it, now that the temperatures are rising and fruit is in season.  Enjoy!

2 small strawberry sugar free jello (boxes)
1 cup boiling water
4 cups unsweeted strawberries, sliced
1 cup crushed pineapple, drained
3 mashed bananas
1/3 cup pecans
1/2 cup nonfat plain yogurt

Mix jello and boiling water until dissolved.  Add fruit and mix. Add nuts.  Pour 1/2 mixture in 9×13 pan and reserve remaining mixture at room temperature.  Chill mixture in pan for 1 hour.  Spread yogurt on top of chilled mixture, then top with remaining mixture.  Chill until firm.

]]> I’ve had this recipe before using regular cookies and whipped topping, but I recently discovered that there is a low fat version. This dessert is super easy to make. When you’re going to a potluck dinner, take this dish along. You’ll know you can eat it and it’s yummy so others will like it too!

You will need:
1 cup skim milk
1 package reduced fat chocolate chip cookies
1 container fat free whipped topping
9×13 dish

You will layer this dessert like a lasagna. First, dunk your cookies in the milk very quickly. After you dunk each one, put it in the pan for your bottom layer. You will use almost 1 sleeve of cookies for this. Next, top the cookie layer with about 1/2 of the whipped topping and spread evenly. Then comes another cookie layer and another whipped topping. You will probably have about 4-5 cookies left over. Crush them and sprinkle on top of the dessert. Chill for a few hours or overnight. Yummy! :D
