Feed this to the kids (and adults) instead of ice cream.

You’ll be amazed! When this comes out of the oven, it smells just like the famous cookie! Use this in any pie that does not need to be baked.

Just 10 minutes to bake the crust and the rest sets up in the refrigerator. EASY!

There’s something about the potential of smelling apples baking with cinnamon and nutmeg that conjures up fond memories of my mother in the kitchen. She taught me as a small girl to make apple crisp so I did it often. This also makes a wonderful little breakfast the next day.

AKA VP Anger's 65th Birthday Dessert. This super-simple, light and dreamy dessert is easy enough for a weeknight treat and fancy enough to serve to a dinner party.

This recipe works for breakfast or for dessert. Really satisfying! A great treat and super fast!

This is a must try, a wonderfully light and healthy dessert.

This is a pretty popular low carb pie crust recipe. I adjusted it to Zolafy it. Be sure to get some of the new sugar substitute. The Swerve people even make a powdered version you can use to make frosting!

Think peanut butter cups. The sugar has all but been taken out of these little treats. And that’s the operative word. Little. Neither kids nor adults need big treats. One or two of these can satisfy that craving in anyone. They are divine. Serve one to your kid as a treat after dinner or set out a platter of them at a dinner party. The package of two Reese’s Peanut Butter Cups has 24 grams of carbs. One of these has 4.9 grams of carbs.

I call this “pie” because it tastes like the middle of a peach pie; just no crust. I call it Southern because the Southerners are known for putting cinnamon and nutmeg in their peach pie recipes.

I have not perfected low carb baking yet but these are pretty good. They have a little denser texture than a light and fluffy cupcake but these are made the old-fashioned way so they don’t have chemical ingredients that processed cupcakes do. They might remind you of a cupcake your grandma made.

Cherries that are a YES/Caution are Montmorency cherries. They are the same ones used in pies. This tastes just like pie filling. The color will be more pale because you will not be pouring in a bunch of red dye. You don’t need those chemicals in your system.

This recipe contributed by Dieter Victoria. Victoria told us ‘With Memorial Day weekend right around the corner, I was trying to come up with a fun ”dip” for apples.

This is one of my favorite, QUICK recipes for an impromptu dinner party.

This tasted more like a smooth pumpkin pie than a cheesecake to me, but in either case I found it to be a heavenly option for a pumpkin dessert destined for Thanksgiving.

Light and dreamy. If you like pumpkin you’ll love this smooth and easy dessert.

Think peanut butter chiffon pie without the crust. For a low carb diet this is perfect.

We have never worked with fruit pectin in this diet. Plan Z dieter Amy came up with the idea to try it. Brilliant idea! This opens up a whole new world of opportunity for thickening.

When we were at lunch the other day, Jen mentioned how dieters miss their crunch. She wondered if we could come up with a recipe for apple chips.

Place on dish, sprinkle ¼ tsp of cinnamon over apple slices, and serve.
