Save Calories this Season

Sunday November 30, 2003
Today's Holiday Quick Tip? Instead of a cornucopia of pies and cakes lining your dessert table, offer fruit-based finishers like fondue, fruit cocktail, yogurt parfaits, and fresh fruit. Not only will this reduce the fat and calorie content of your meal's finale, guests will also find fruit more refreshing than sweets. After all, usually by dessert, you're eating out of sheer habit anyway, not from hunger, so why "waist" the calories?
