Fruit Recipes

Serve these fruit kebabs at your next party.

Whole wheat bread gives this side staying power. The fruits and vegetables bulk up the dish, so a little goes a long way. A bit of turkey bacon adds another layer of flavor without adding many calories.

In summertime, I like to use this stone fruit salsa over fish or chicken, or as a topping for Greek yogurt.

Good as a side dish or dessert, this salad made from fresh fruit is naturally low in fat, saturated fat, and sodium. Plus, it's cholesterol free.

We love all the sweet flavors and contrasting textures in this simple fruit salad. Sprinkle chopped, toasted nuts or granola on top for crunch.

All I did was toss a bunch of fruit I love into a large bowl and served it up. It's fresh and very yummy. It's a good PCOS friendly recipe. FRESH IS BEST!

Fresh fruit served as kabobs with an orange/coconut dressing to dip.

A sweet treat that's healthy and tasty to eat.

I made this trifle for my mom (who is diabetic) for her birthday. It turned out REALLY yummy. What little bit of sugar is in here, could either be left out completely or could be replaced with another sweetener. The agave nectar is low on the glycemic index.

A yummy low fat snack

By chilling the dessert overnight, the fruits moisten the cake for easier cutting and meld the flavors. Yummy! Great in the summer and company loves it!

Editor's note: Use your favorite milk or yogurt in this recipe. Use ice cubes instead of water for a frozen treat.

Most of the smoothie recipes I've seen are for 3-6 servings. This is a good smoothie for just 1 person. It can be made with a stick blender instead of getting the big one dirty for just one drink!

This dip tastes decadent but is very healthy. Great Valentine to share with someone you love!

Although these contain approximately 200 calories each, they are an all natural granola bar, rich in omega-3 fatty acid with 4 grams of fiber and 4 grams of protein. To save on some calories, you can make this without the ground flaxseed meal and almonds to make each bar approximately 150-160 calories each. If you don't have the dried fruit and nut mixutre, you can just use any kind of dried fruit - raisins, craisins, prunes (chopped), mangoes (chopped), papaya... you get the idea

A favorite at potlucks when I was a kid. Very quick and easy to make. 100 calories per 1/2 cup serving. Could be a fruit side dish or a dessert.

A yummy snack with only 0.2 fat and 50 calories. Enjoy it as ice cream or as a smoothie.

A hearty and healthy cookie that is slightly sweet and perfect for breakfast

Easy to make and take to a picnic! Or just keep them in the fridge to encourage the family to eat more fruit.

Your going to love this recipe. I just threw it together using some sliced 40 calorie per slice bread that was not as fresh as my family or I desire for sandwiches. I wanted to make a healthy treat that was no t yogurt but did not have much more Calories or fat than yogurt and I pretty much did it!

My hubby isn't a breakfast guy, but he will gladly consume a smoothie every morning. The secret is the frozen banana! Otherwise, I mix it up every day and simply follow the basic formula of one cup fresh fruit + 1/2 c. frozen fruit and 1/2 frozen banana + 1/2 c. liquid. The liquid can be fruit juice or milk or even yogurt. When that bunch of bananas on your counter is starting to look sad, peel 'em, break in half and stick in the freezer so the secret ingredient is always on hand!

Very low cal and low fat. Healthy way to satisfy sweet tooth.

Better than store-bought, these granola bars include healthy almonds, whole grain, natural sweeteners and a touch of fruit.

This delicious breakfast (or dessert) comes together in minutes but looks as good as it tastes!
