Coconut Cream Pie….Without Guilt!

Submitted by Judy on February 16, 2007 – 11:35 amNo Comment

coconutcreampieCoconut Cream Pie Without Guilt

8 oz container of fat-free light coconut creme pie yogurt
1 tablespoon light whipped cream

Top yogurt with whipped cream; enjoy!

I found a whole selection of fat-free light (sweetened with aspartame and fructose) yogurts in the grocery store with a creme pie theme: Lemon Chiffon, Key Lime, Coconut Creme and Banana Creme. They do satisfy a sweet tooth! And they can be counted as a fat-free, good-calcium serving of dairy.

The best part is that they are not that high in calories:

Serving size – 8 ounces
Calories – 130
Fat – 0g
Cholesterol – <5mg
Sodium – 160 mg
Potassium – 460 mg
Carbohydrate – 23 g
Fiber – 0 g
Sugars – 16 g
Protein – 10 g

A cup of frozen yogurt would be double the calories (and who only eats a half cup of THAT?). And a real coconut cream pie would be much more – like 480 calories and 31 g fat per slice!!
