There's nothing better than fresh fruit from the farm-stand. Seasonal summer fruit gets dressed up in these recipes that are perfect for snack-time or dessert.
Cantaloupe Salad With Raspberry Vinaigrette
What could be more refreshing than a fruit-based dessert to cap off dinner? Fruit adds color, flavor, and texture to your meal, along with weight-controlling fiber, vitamins, and a whole host of beneficial nutrients.
Fruit Boats With Orange-Balsamic Glaze
This fruit salad is nutritious and so delicious!
Lime Fruit Medley
A creamy lime dressing gives this colorful summer fruit bowl pizzazz!
Melon Compote
This light dessert gives you your vitamin C for the day, and will still satisfy your sweet tooth -- all in under 90 calories.
Blueberry Bonanza
This light and creamy dessert is made with milk rather than heavy cream to keep calories in check. Blueberries, whether fresh or frozen, are among the fruits that are richest in nutrients and disease-fighting compounds.
Lemon Mousse With Strawberries
Sampling this mousse, which sparkles with fresh lemon flavor, is like spooning up sunshine; jewel-like layers of berries are an unexpected delight. We've lightened the mousse by substituting unflavored gelatin and fat-free yogurt for the usual quantities of eggs and cream.
