Ice Cream Sundae Recipes

Fat-Free & Low-Cal Dessert Recipes

Hooray! Summer is here! But like peanut butter and jelly there is something else that also goes together. Summertime and yes, I have to say it, DIETING! I mean let's face it, every woman wants to look good in that itsy bitsy teeny weeny yellow polka dot bikini. Well in my case, a nice one piece bathing suit. But who the hell wants to eat styrofoam-like rice cakes and cardboard-like shredded wheat all summer just to stay slim. After all, it is summertime.

Ladies, don't fret! For those of you with an insatiable summertime sweet tooth like mine, there are options. There are plenty of deliciously decadent treats that a person can eat in moderation and still maintain a healthy weight. One of my personal summertime favorites is the ice cream sundae. For me, summertime just wouldn't be the same without this frosty treat. The only bad thing about the ice cream sundae is the billions of calories in just one sundae. Summer bummer!

So here's the big question. "How does a drop dead gorgeous woman like me fit into a stunning and flattering one piece bathing suit but still be able to eat her favorite summertime dessert?"

Watkins to the rescue! For those of you who are unfamiliar with this company, here's the low-down taken directly from their website, www.watkinsonline.com. 

"Before there was a pharmacy on every corner, or a gourmet shop in every town, there was Watkins. Starting back in 1868, we purveyed the only health "remedies" that came with a money-back guarantee. That guarantee still remains, along with a reputation for using only the finest natural ingredients. 

While we're most famous for our award-winning Vanilla and spices, today we offer a complete line of gourmet specialty foods, botanical personal-and home-care products, elegant gift baskets and — of course — tried and true medicinals."
