We all want to be healthy, but we also want to eat dessert. Luckily, you don't have to give up a sweet treat when you're trying to do what's right for your body. Here are some tasty lazy girl desserts that are easy to make and delicious to eat.
4 tbsp Sugar
1 lb Fresh strawberries
Toss the strawberries with the sugar and bake them at 400 for 15 to 20 minutes. Make sure you use a baking dish and not a baking sheet. The strawberries will release juices. Pour over ice cream for a delicious dessert.
Sprinkles
½ cup chocolate chips
3 bananas
Peel the bananas and cut them in half. Insert a wooden skewer into the cut end of each of the bananas. Lay the bananas on parchment and freeze for four to five hours, or until solid. Melt the chocolate chips, making sure not to burn them. Dip the bananas in the chocolate, working quickly. Sprinkle the bananas with sprinkles and freeze until the chocolate is set.
1 tbsp shredded coconut
½ tsp honey
½ large grapefruit
Preheat the broiler and place the rack on the top rung. Slice around the flesh of the grapefruit to loosen it up. Slice down the segments of the grapefruit. This will make things easier when it comes to eating. Set the grapefruit on a baking pan and top with the honey. Broil for three to five minutes, or until it browns. Top with the coconut and enjoy.
3 tbsp sprinkles
3 tsp vanilla
3 tbsp honey
8 oz cream cheese
1 cup plain yogurt
Place the vanilla, yogurt, honey, and cream cheese in a food processor and mix until creamy. Stir in the sprinkles. Place mixture in a bowl, cover and freeze for at least six hours.
1-2 tsp honey
¼ cup cocoa
1-2 ripe avocados
Mix all of the ingredients in a food processor until smooth.
1 cup water
1 cup pineapple slices
1 cup blueberries
Mix everything in a blender until smooth. Pour the mixture into popsicle molds and freeze for at least six hours.
10 oz semisweet chocolate chopped
15 oz pure sweet potato puree
Bring the sweet potato puree to a simmer and stir often. Take it off the heat and mix in the chocolate, stirring until smooth. You can top any cake with this frosting, or eat it as is.
Toothpicks
3 lbs seedless grapes
Instant flavored gelatin
Bowl of water – enough to hold the grapes
