Creamy Dreamy Lemon Bars
ZSpecialties,ZS-Holiday,Z3-Desserts
My husband’s favorite dessert flavor is lemon. These hit his tart meter for sure! They taste divine and have no sugar and no gluten. Your friends and family won’t need to know these aren’t “bad” for you!
Lemon Brownies
ZSpecialties,ZS-Holiday,Z3-Desserts
I found a classic Southern Living recipe and took out all the sugar. These are amazing – even if I do say so myself!
Pumpkin Spiced Pecans
ZS-Holiday,Z3-Desserts,ZSpecialties
These sweet and spicy nuts are perfect for snacking, make a great salad topper or adding a special something to your favorite desserts.
Patriotic Cherries
ZS-Holiday,Z2-Desserts,ZSpecialties,ZS-Zola to Go
To make this dish “patriotic’ all you need to do is add blueberries and you have a red and blue dessert. You don’t need to feel left out of the holiday celebration just because you’re on a diet. Yours will be just as colorful and tasty as anything else being served.
Chocolate Liqueur Pots de Crème
When I made it the other night one dinner guest declared it “Birthday Cake Good.” Which means...who needs birthday cake when you can eat this kind of Big YUM stuff!
Cranberry Royale (EASY)
ZSpecialties,Z3.5-Desserts,ZS-Holiday
This is a takeoff of a cranberry bake recipe from Southern Living. This is homey, tasty, and not too sweet. Just a little cranberry twang but plenty of sweetness in the apples.
Healthy Orange Creamsicle
ZSpecialties,Z2-Desserts,Z2-Vegetarian,ZS-Dieter Favorites
We have to thank Dieter Claire for inventing this recipe. She modified the fruit parfait recipe and developed a strawberry "ice cream" recipe and this recipe with frozen mandarin oranges. She says, “it’s like an orange creamsicle.” YUM!
Strawberry “Almost Ice Cream”
ZS-Dieter Favorites,Z2-Vegetarian,Z2-Desserts,ZSpecialties,Z2-Beverages
Dieter Claire invented this recipe by modifying the fruit parfait recipe and adding extra frozen strawberries. She says, "it's as close to ice cream as you can get." We agree.
Caramelized Pears (ZReboot Version)
ZSpecialties,Z3-Desserts,ZS-5 Ingredients or Less
A no sugar variation of my caramelized pears recipe. Still very yummy!
Caramelized Pears (ZReboot 3.5 Version)
ZSpecialties,Z3.5-Desserts,ZS-5 Ingredients or Less
Chris’s cousins sent us a HUGE box of fruit as his get well wish. There are only two of us, so in order to use the fruit I have had to get creative! Oh, my, these are yummy!
No Bake Shortbread Cookie Crust
ZS-5 Ingredients or Less,ZSpecialties,Z3.5-Desserts
I am a huge fan of English shortbread. When I traveled a lot in England on business, the hotel usually left a package or two by the coffee maker. I used to make that my little breakfast while I worked at the desk.
Blueberry Sauce
ZS-Holiday,ZSpecialties,ZS-5 Ingredients or Less,Z2-Desserts
A delicious sauce to pair with your favorite dessert.
Cognac Truffles
ZS-Holiday,ZSpecialties,ZS-5 Ingredients or Less,Z3-Desserts
If you don’t use liquor in your cooking you can leave that out. You can also flavor them with stevia flavorings. You could have coconut, vanilla or other flavors.
Peach Blueberry Slab Pie
ZS-Zola to Go,ZSpecialties,Z3-Desserts
One piece of advice on this recipe, eat it fast. That means invite some folks over and try to polish this off in one seating.
Low Carb Banana Bread
ZS-Holiday,ZSpecialties,Z3.5-Desserts
I eat very few bananas these days because as they ripen their carb count/glycemic index load goes up. So this is a treat. Don’t plan to eat the whole loaf yourself. That could get dangerous.
Fruit Bowl with Luscious Lemon Cream Z3.5 Version
ZS-Holiday,ZSpecialties,ZS-Dieter Favorites,Z3.5-Desserts
This stuff is addictive and so refreshing. RARELY do I take seconds on a dessert. With this one I did.
Raspberry “Ice Cream”
ZSpecialties,ZS-Dieter Favorites,Z2-Desserts,ZS-5 Ingredients or Less
Dieter Margaret offered up a GREAT idea! I scream. You scream. We all scream for ice cream – and we are on a diet! BONUS!
White Chocolate Crème Brulee (custard) with Strawberry Coulis (sauce)
ZSpecialties,ZS-Holiday,Z3-Desserts
Most crème brulee recipes call for caramelizing sugar on top of the custard. I love that, but the sugar is too much. So, in this case, I made up a simple strawberry sauce to go on the top instead.
Chocolate Dipped Pears
ZSpecialties,ZS-5 Ingredients or Less,ZS-Holiday,Z3-Desserts
Pears and chocolate go great together. Who needs candy apples when you've got these?
Chocolate French Silk Dessert
ZSpecialties,Z3-Desserts,ZS-5 Ingredients or Less
