Starbucks 'Trenta': How The New Size Compares To Your Stomach
Famous Death Row Last Meals
I don't know about you, but I don't want to eat a lot of heavy desserts in the summer. Somehow, in the hot weather, a heavy dessert sits more uncomfortably in the stomach than it does in the winter. And, when you might have to put on a swimsuit and jump in the pool to cool down, you might be better off avoiding the desserts that look like you're sitting in your stomach, too. The American Heart Association's Low-Fat & Luscious Desserts is a cookbook that tries to keep your health (and your waistline) in check while still giving you a full range of dessert possibilities, including cakes and cookies. Since the book is sponsored by the AHA, they tried to keep the recipes heart-healthy, so they have tried to reduce the calories, saturated fat and cholesterol in the dishes. This also means that many of them will be appropriate for family members with health or dietary concerns who still want to share in lightened versions of favorites, like Upside Down Cake and Chocolate Chip Cookies, with family and friends.
