from ww - i have yet to try but it sounds fab! only 4 points, 183 calories, 4 grams of fat! much better then some of the others!
💬 Reviews (PERFECT dessert! I had DH's students come over for advisee dinner and one of them was lactose intolerent so this was perfect and VERY quick and looked VERY fanciful as well!! I used cran-raspberry juice, mixed frozen berries- raspberries, blueberries, red currants and black currants (can't get fresh this time of the year) and skipped the liqueur. Since I had to serve 15, I poured it in individual glasses and I doubled the recipe. Got thumbs up from ALL! Thank you, Roxygirl..., for sharing your wonderful recipe. Will be making it again... and again. For sure!)

this is a colorful main dish that's easy to prepare. serve it over rice, as the recipe suggests or over al dente linguine. great with a side salad and crusty rolls or garlic bread. originally from the cook's exchange- reader's best recipes from a june 1983 issue of bon apetit.
💬 Reviews (This was very good and low cal because I used diet ocean spray cranberry juice and it only has 5 calories per serving and I also used Sugar free jello. I used strawberries and raspberries. Thanks for posting the recipe.)

this quesadilla has everything in it to make my mouth water! :) the caramelized onions make this recipe for me - that's why we added them!!! loosley based on recipe in cooking light magazine, july 2009 edition. here they suggest: watermelon-jicama salad is a refreshing side dish. combine 4 cups (1/2-inch) cubed seedless watermelon, 1 1/2 cups (1/2-inch) cubed peeled jicama, 1 cup chopped english cucumber, and 1/2 cup chopped red onion. add 2 tablespoons fresh lemon juice, 2 teaspoons sugar, and 1 teaspoon olive oil; toss well. any fruit salad side dish would be great & very refreshing! have tweaked it to suit our personal taste!! :).if the rondele cheese is a bit too pricey - you can take a sharp cheddar, jalapenos, salt, pepper & some light, no-fat sour cream and beat it until it becomes soft & spreadable - of course, with the cheddar at room temp. the same can be done with the horseradish! this is fly-by-night recipe - i make these kinds of concotions off the top of my head, but i am sure someone made them before i! ;)
💬 Reviews (Yum! This is so refreshing and easy. I used light cran-raspberry juice, raspberry jell-o, diet Squirt, and frozen fruit. It looks so pretty and everyone is always so surprised at the flavor. I will definitely be making this again!)

this recipe is super simple to make and you can tailor it to your own taste, making it cajun, using different veggies, or using different meat (would also be good with italian sausage, fish, or steak) you can also leave off the meat to make a delicious vegetarian dish.
