Skinnied Up Banana Splits

I love the taste of a banana split, so one day, I decided to make a healthier version of this favourite treat of mine.

Start by cutting up some strawberries and bananas into bite size pieces.

Then, instead of using ice cream, choose a frozen yogurt. Chapman's has the best selections and they are ususally 50% less fat than real ice cream.

See, half a cup has 130 calories and 3g of fat, compare this to ice cream- 290 calories and 18g of fat (ok that's Haagen Dazs, but still!!!).


Et voila, just add some drizzle of chocolate sauce!

Here's a closeup... nice, eh? This little treat was less than 200 calories, so go ahead and impress your friends and family... just remember to put it in a fancy serving dish and you will think you are at one of those fancy gourmet desert places.
