I can’t believe it’s the end of June already! With all the fresh fruit available I made this gorgeous Slow Cooker Light Berry Crisp. Yes it’s healthy recipe, and couldn’t be any easier to boot. I used 5 cups of fresh berries, a squeeze of lemon juice, then for the topping I used my favorite granola. I did not add any sugar. Why you ask? Because I knew I was going to top this beauty with low-fat ice cream, I love Dreyer’s half the fat French Vanilla, which compliments the tart berries perfectly.
Such a perfect dessert for summer time. Light and fresh, with no guilt! I actually saved a bowl of this and at it for breakfast the next day (without ice cream!)

July 9, 2015 at 10:02 pmYou know that fat doesn’t make you fat, right? It’s sugar that does that. So why eat lowfat ice cream?

February 2, 2017 at 11:25 amtoo much fat in your diet is also not healthy. Especially if it isn’t healthy fat. So why does it matter to you what kind of ice cream she eats.

May 31, 2016 at 10:22 amDo you think regular oats would work instead of granola? Thanks!

May 31, 2016 at 10:25 amIt may, you would need to add some flavoring.
