low fat dessert No meal is ever over unless dessert is served. If you are here in America, you know that most of the desserts out there are bad for you, but taste so good! They are loaded with tons of sugar and or fat rich creames / cheeses.

We will discuss some of the more healthy deserts that you can eat. First I want to say, don't get fooled by this low fat stuff. It isn't worth the time. You will eat twice as much of it to fill your cravings. It is because it is missing something, the fat. The one thing that you are craving the most. In the end you aren't really doing yourself any favors. You are falling in the trap that all fat people fall into. They think since it is low fat, they can eat twice as much of it. That maybe true, but only if you don't want to loose weight. So lets get to it, our low fat desert ideas

Low Fat Dessert Ideas - Fresh Fruit

Fresh fruit is always a good desert and is our number one low fat dessert choice. You can prepare it easily and it tastes great. Nothing tastes better than fresh fruit that is in season. Make sure that it is perfectly ripe and ready to eat. If it is ripe, it will be sweet and juicy. If you eat fruit that isn't ripe it will be hard and not have all the flavor that it can yield. You don't have to stick with the ho hum fruit salad. You can choose a ton of different ways to eat fresh fruit. You can bake apples for example wrapped in tin foil with a little bit of brown sugar. This is wonderful.

Do not be affraid to break out whip cream (low fat that is) to top berrys or sprinkle a bit of splenda on a fruit bowl for that extra sweetness.

Depending on the crowd a wine spritzer or champainge complements a fruit tray any day!

If you are into baking make low fat fruit muffins, perfect for sunday brunch or dessert. We like to use cranberries, and blueberries together.

You can also eat some low fat cakes. Just because it is cake, doesn't mean that it is bad for you. Just make sure that there isn't a whole lot of eggs or dairy involved.

Remember, the number of calories you intake counts. So a little amount of fat with low calories will not cause you to gain weight, but fat / low fat and 4,000 calories a day will casue you to become fat.
