Healthy Valentine's Day dessert - Very Vanilla Fruit Salad


By This Mama Cooks! On a Diet? (Visit website)



Very Vanilla Fruit SaladJust when you thought the eating holidays were over with the end of football season, here comes Valentine?s Day! It?s a challenging holiday because it?s all about sharing sweets with your family or significant other. Unfortunately, all you end up sharing are expanding waistlines and having to deal with sugared out kids.

Instead, try this healthy alternative from the folks at McCormick, the spice folks. Only 1 Weight Watchers POINT for half a cup.

Very Vanilla Fruit Salad
Makes 10 (1/2-cup) servings.

Prep Time: 15 minutes

Ingredients:


2 cups strawberries, halved
1 cup blueberries
1 cup fresh or canned pineapple chunks
1 cup cantaloupe chunks
2 kiwis, peeled and sliced
1/4 cup confectioners' sugar
2 teaspoons McCormick® Pure Vanilla Extract

Directions:


Mix fruit, confectioners' sugar and vanilla in large bowl. 
Refrigerate 1 hour or until ready to serve.

Tips:


You can use McCormick Raspberry Extract in place of the vanilla to make a raspberry salad.
If certain types of fresh fruit aren?t available in your area, feel free to make substitutions or to use frozen fruit.
You can use Truvia or Purvia instead of confectioner?s sugar. Since each packet equals 2 teaspoons of sugar, you?ll need 6 packets to have the equivalent of 1/4 of regular sugar. You may want to use less depending on your sweet tooth.
