Call me cliche, but I may have overdone it just a little over the holidays. It is hard for me to say no to the cookies, and fudge, and my grandmother's apple sauce cake.  And just like most of you all, I am ready to get back to better and healthier eating once I break out that new 2015 calendar on the first day of January.  

I have no problem swapping out potato chips for hummus and baby carrots, and those decadent cinnamon rolls for a bowl of whole grain cereal. 
What I do have a problem with is giving up the sweets.
In fact, I just can't give up the desserts.  Anyone else also have a mean sweet tooth that seems to always thwart your best efforts at healthier eating?
That is why I have come up with an arsenal of healthier, low fat sweet treats to tame that sweet tooth without the guilt.  Like this Skinny Tiramisu Smoothie...


This creamy, low fat Skinny Tiramisu Smoothie is a guilt free way to satisfy your craving for a classic Italian dessert.

With a few simple swaps, I have managed to transform my favorite dessert indulgence into a creamy, low fat smoothie.  Nonfat vanilla yogurt and low fat whipped cream cheese replace the rich mascarpone cheese found in traditional tiramisu. And a few crushed vanilla wafers keep you from missing those espresso soaked ladyfingers. ;)
