I'm always on the lookout for low calorie treats to eat after dinner. I came up with one the other night I thought was pretty good.
I took a Great Value 90-calorie granola bar and heated it up for about 20 seconds in the microwave. I added a dollop or two of whipped topping (you could use fat free for an even better treat) and a drizzle of chocolate sauce.
A sprinkle of nuts would make a nice addition too since they are so good for you.It was plenty enough to handle my sweet tooth and not too bad of an indulgence. Just thought I'd share

ReplyDeleteHi! Stopping by from Mom Bloggers Club. Great blog!
Have a nice day!
It really is glorious!
DeleteI love sundaes and I love granolas so this having two of the things I love is a must have for me. Love it!!!
ReplyDeleteMe too! I heard one time that a granola bar is really just a cookie, but at least it's a low-ish calorie cookie with a little fiber in it :) Yum!
DeleteI like this indulgence. Looking forward to trying it. Thanks for sharing.
ReplyDeleteMe too! Thanks!
DeleteYum! This would be good substitute for the ice cream I usually eat after dinner.
ReplyDeleteOh, I know it, I've been having too many treats lately :) Decided I needed to tone them down a bit.
DeleteI make homemade granola and eat it with sherbet--or better yet with yogurt and fruit. LOVE it!
ReplyDeleteOh my gosh, I'll bet the homemade granola is awesome. And with Greek yogurt, that'd be awesome!
DeleteIt looks delicious...If I only had any of those ingredients at home right now, I'd make one!
ReplyDeleteMy boys love granola bars and rice krispie treats so we always have both :)
DeleteWhat a great idea, warming the granola bar up! I definitely see this in my future. Thanks for sharing! :)
ReplyDeleteIt makes it taste like a fresh baked cookie! Yum!
