Instead, serve a lightened-up version of dessert that still tastes every bit as indulgent… without the regret.
These healthy Valentine treats are packed with flavor, conceal hidden nutrition, and make stunning presentations from breakfast and brunch clear through to dessert. Think smoothies, frozen treats, meringues, bars, cookies, and more.
