Dessert Recipes That Are A *Little* Less Unhealthy

September 7, 2008 · 2 comments

INDEX OF DESSERT RECIPES:

Just to be clear, as I’ve said before, you really shouldn’t have sugar / sweet desserts all that much. I admire those who have kicked the sugar habit completely - I’m totally convinced that their bodies are much healthier, and will be for much longer, than someone like me who indulges now and then. (Read more about the various types of sweeteners.)  But I have found some ways to at least make the following recipes a little less unhealthy…

  1. Chocolate or Lemon Torte - there are many delicious variations to this recipe.
  2. Healthy Dessert? Zucchini Chocolate Chip Cookies from Sonia - Soft, Delicious, and Even a Little Healthy! - but only a little, as you’ll read more about in the comments here.
  3. Lemon Blueberry Pie - my favorite dessert of the summer!
  4. Crystal’s Healthy Chocolate Mousse Recipe - when you see the ingredients you won’t expect this to be as dreamy as it is.
  5. Healthy Popsicle Alternatives - thankfully, many of you commented to tell us about the healthy options out there.
  6. Sonia’s Organic Strawberry Bruschetta - Mmmm, nothing better in the middle of strawberry season.
  7. Organic Homemade Chocolate Brownies Recipe - no more need for the boxed brownies full of trans fats.
  8. Organic Hot Fudge Sauce Recipe - I stumbled upon this recipe by accident.
  9. Uncooked/Raw Applesauce in my Bosch - More Nutrition! This is so good, you could call it a dessert…but I’m still calling it a side-dish.
  10. The BEST Homemade Vanilla or Chocolate Ice Cream - amazingly smooth, creamy and delectable…I’m craving some right now. You don’t have to feel guilty, either! There are many nutrients in it!
  11. Crème Brule - another one that is full of nutrients!
  12. Homemade Strawberry Ice Cream - the creamiest and dreamiest
  13. Smoothies - a great way to get more coconut into your diet!
  14. Better than Garrett’s caramel corn / Christmas baking
  15. Organic Homemade Hot Cocoa Recipe
  16. Coconut Chocolate Candy/fudge
  17. Double Chocolate Raspberry Bars
  18. Homemade organic pie filling or fruit syrup recipe - also at the comments here you’ll find good recipes for apple custard bars and fruit crisp!
  19. Organic lemon cherry coffee cake
  20. Probiotic Fudgesicles!
  21. Nut Bars/Energy Bars
  22. Strawberries & Cream (& other seasonal fruit treats)
  23. How to make real whipped cream
  24. Sonia’s multi-grain chocolate chips cookies (they don’t taste ‘healthy’, honest!)

I loved the idea of good pudding but teh Dr stuff is out of stock , so I thought why not ask if any body has a SCRATCH receipe for pudding and Jello that is healthy and nutritious and TASTY. I have used the beef gelatiun for jello but I can’t get a good flavor so far.I use only stevia or Xylitol or agave for sweetener.
