6 oz carton Raspberries
6 oz carton Blackberries
4 tablespoons sugar
1/4 cup fresh lemon juice
1 tsp vanilla extract
1 cup Chobani fat free vanilla yogurt
9 Dixie Cups and 9 popsicle sticks
Using a food processor or blender, process raspberries until smooth. If you like your popsicles to have a little bit more pulp too it, pour puree into medium size mixing bowl. If you would rather have no fruit pieces, using a fine mesh strainer, strain puree into a medium size mixing bowl and throw away excess fruit away. Then combine 2 tablespoons sugar, 1/8 cup lemon juice, 1/2 tsp vanilla extract, and 1/2 cup vanilla yogurt until mixed thoroughly.
Repeat the exact same process with the blackberries, and make sure and rinse all utensils in between to ensure the flavors/colors do not mix.
To create the layered look in the popsicles, pour about 1/4 to 1/2 inch of the blackberry mixture and place in the freezer for 15 minutes or until it is mostly frozen. Next carefully pour a 1/4 to 1/2 inch layer of raspberry on top and stick in the popsicle stick; allow to freeze for 15 minutes or until mostly frozen. Repeat this process until full and then allow to freeze for 2 hours before eating. To remove from Dixie cup, cut lip of dixie cup and peel away from popsicle.

(Non-fat, vegan) Créme Brulée
Ingredients:
Directions:
1. Put all the ingredients in a food processor or vitamix and mix, at medium-high speed, for 30 seconds, or until everything is well blended.
2. In a large pot over medium heat, pour the mixture and stir with a spoon, until it barely starts boiling. It might happen that some scum forms on the surface – you can skim it off easily with a metal spoon. As soon as the liquid is boiling, decrease the heat to low and continue to whisk vigourously for 10 to 12 minutes longer. The mixture should thicken up substancially and you’ll know it’s ready when, while stirring, the spoon leaves trail marks, showing off the bottom of the pot.
3. Divide the créme brulée among 5 ramekins, and let them cool at room temperature. Once cooled, refrigerate for at least 30 minutes.
4. To make the “burnt” topping, add 1 tablespoon of sugar on top of each serving and, using a kitchen torch, caramelize the sugar, working in circular moves. Let it set for 5 minutes before serving. Bon appetit!
Each Créme Brulée will have 160 calories, 0% fat, trans-fat and cholesterol.
Adzuki Chocolate Bites
Ingredients:
For the adzuki balls:
For the topping:
Directions:
Put the adzuki beans in a small pot and cover with a couple inches of water. Boil for about an hour, making sure you don’t let them dry out, until they are soft. Drain. Add 3/4 cup cooked adzuki beans (they will have swollen up so your 1/2 cup should have turned into at least 3/4 cup), 3/4 cup pecans, dates, cocoa powder, vanilla, and salt. Blend until smooth, scraping down the sides of the bowl if necessary. If it is too dry to blend well, you can add 1 tsp rice milk and a teaspoon of agave nectar to make it a little more sweet.
Scoop out the dough a tablespoon or so at a time and roll into 24 balls. Sprinkle them with just a bit of the sea salt and then roll the balls in the shredded coconut until they are coated, then put them in the fridge for about an hour to firm up.
Each chocolate adzuki ball will have 58 calories.
