Thank you House Foods for sponsoring this post.

My daughter is enjoying her last few days of summer break, and I am thinking ahead to next week when school starts back up for the year. Even though we do not know quite yet what her second grade year will bring, one thing is for certain- she will come through the door just about every afternoon after school proclaiming how hungry she is. So I am making a mental list now of fun & easy snacks that she can help me make when her after school munchies hit.

Inspired by her recent reading of The Tales of Tofu from House Foods ebook, my daughter asked if we could try one of the recipes from the ebook. My daughter loves any & all smoothies, so she of course requested that we whip up the Strawberry Papaya Tofu Smoothie in preparation for all that upcoming back to school snacking. 

Skinny Tiramisu Smoothie

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

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...

Pumpkin Pie Cookie Butter Smoothie

Post updated 11/4/17- This perfect for fall Pumpkin Pie Cookie Butter Smoothie deserved some updated photos. I did leave one of the originals below just so you all can see for yourself why this recipe so desperately needed a little face lift. ;)
