slimmed down dessert

Building Fund service is tomorrow evening at 4 and we have a potluck dinner in between services. I'm going to take a Tiramisu Bowl ( http://www.kraftfoods.com/kf/recipes/tiramisu-bowl-106862.aspx ) that is trimmed back a bit. I've had and made it the regular way before but, well, not only do I need to lose weight but so many in our small congregation need to as well and/or are diabetic. So I'm going to use fat-free/sugar-free vanilla pudding, skim milk (outta skim so watered down whole instead), Reduced Fat Vanilla Wafers, 1/3less fat cream cheese, Splenda, uuuuuuh oh, and either fat-free or low-fat whipped topping.

I'm sure hey won't complain and since I'd like to be able to have a taste of it without feeling like I've cheated, I need to make it this way. So be it.

I'm super sleepy so I need to get to cracking before I end up having to wake up tomorrow morning to make it!

  1. Done. now, bed. I did a little something different with it this time. To make sure it stretches well, I did a top layer of whipped topping as usual but on top of that I added another layer of wafers and then added a mocha pudding layer (regular fat-free/sugar-free chocolate pudding with instant coffee added to the "skim" milk before mixing). It should be enough.

    Okay all, be blessed.

  2. That really sounds good! You've got a wonderful attitude about you...You have exactly what you need to get this done now. You have your motivating thoughts, your "iron clad" decision to do this, and a wonderful attitude along the way. You can't help but win this one!

    I'm so very proud of what you're doing,

    Keep up the good work!
