Summer is perhaps the BEST and EASIEST season to cut back on sugar. Why? There is so much fresh fruit that needs little to no adornment, delivers a vitamin boost, and curbs your sugar cravings! Below are some of our favorite summer "desserts":
1. Watermelon (growing up, our family of four would quarter a watermelon, each wield a knife and fork, and go to town.... Mmmmm....)
2. Peaches (peel if you want, slice/chop, and sprinkle with a small amount of sugar. Let sit while you eat dinner. They'll be ready for a decadent-tasting, low calorie, perfect summer dessert. No cake or cobbler topping needed!)
3. Berries (all berries are divine with a little heavy cream poured over....)
4. Fruit salad (use this as your final course for dinner and you won't be craving dessert; melons, berries, bananas, peaches and/or nectarines all are good and can all be cut up ahead of time)
5. Fruit and cheese platter (this is a good appetizer as well; apples, grapes and melons work well paired with various cheeses)
