Red Velvet Cookie Bars


Who else is as smitten with red velvet as I am?!  My love for all things red velvet is why I decided to bake up a batch of these delicious Red Velvet Cookie Bars topped with M&M's® Red Velvet candies to share with my friends and family.  Why not?  Valentine's Day is right around the corner and I can't think of a better way to say, "I love you!"

Cheesy Sausage Pinwheels


When I made the Skinny Zuppa Toscana Soup the other day, I decided to brown up some extra turkey Italian sausage to use in other recipes during the week.  I kept thinking about this combination I put together below and Cheesy Sausage Pinwheels were born!  Oh my goodness...these are delish!  Turkey Sausage, cheese, and banana peppers all rolled into a slightly sweet crescent roll base.   They would be a great addition to any spread this weekend for the Superbowl!

Skinny Banana Split Trifle

Skinny Banana Split Trifle is a delicious, figure friendly ending to any meal. This No-bake dessert could not be any easier to throw together either!

 Chunks of store-bought angel food cake are smothered in a vanilla sugar-free pudding "cream" and layered with all that is good in a banana split: fresh banana slices, pineapple, fresh sliced strawberries, chocolate fudge topping and, of course, walnuts, whipped topping and cherries to finish it all off for a spectacular presentation!
