a few pieces of the fruit can be mixed into the low carb puddings, too.

both desserts remind me of the good old days of chocolate covered strawberries and bananas! the new desserts are much easier to deal with re portion control!

Grapes are very high in sugar. That is why I limit myself to just a few a day. My doctor also tells me only to have half a banana in my protein shakes too! Gosh, they take all of the fun out of life!

I see you were originally from Adrian MI? We live in Jackson, MI 6mos and TV 6mos.

Lucky you, to spend half the year in Jackson and the other half in TV!!!

I drove around Jackson this week!! I was originally from Britton and my family later moved to Adrian. I worked in Washington, DC for 26 years before moving back to Adrian to help with my Dad.

It is a small world! Two people in our small subdivision winter in TV!

slice the other half of the banana and freeze the slices, then store in freezer in a plastic baggie - you'll be wowed at just how refreshing one frozen slice can be - and ya don't necessarily feel like ya hafta have another!

after having given up grapes because of the sugar i can't even eat just one without making a face! they are just too sweet now! but my palate finds the frozen banana chips are tasty!
