CZfDEFINE DESSERTS
DIFFERENTLY
Reserve fattening pastries
and other sweet desserts for
special occasions. A typical
ending to a meal should be fruit.
Make it special by choosing
perfectly ripe fruits and using
your imagination to concoct fruit
salads (pomegranate and orange
taste great with walnuts and a
drizzle of maple syrup). Make
wine-poached pears or peaches.
If you have a hard time giving up
sweets, reduce your usual dessert
portion and add fruit. Instead of
two biscotti, for instance, have one
with an apricot. Top a small dish
of ice cream or frozen yogurt with
fresh blueberries.
