Desserts by far are my FAVORITE type of food, but not all desserts are created equal. Some are ladened with trans fats, high fructose corn syrups and many ingredients that I can't even pronounce! But have no fear! Today I'm hooking you up with 35 Dietitian Approved Desserts that taste delicious and will nourish your body!
With daylight savings time just beginning and the temps already increasing down here in Florida, I'm always looking for fresh new ideas to help cool down. Just this past Saturday my boyfriend and I dug out our two 6x12 ft gardens which was no easy task. 2 hours later, we were only halfway through and we decided it was time to take a break, and so did the pup would was watching us from the sidelines. The one time she doesn't want to dig in the yard was the only time that I would have actually appreciated it if she was digging LOL.
Hot times like these are when I turn to my favorite dietitians and ask them for some of their Dietitian Approved Desserts to help me cool off and relax after a long day out in the yard.
