Happy Birthday Kari!

These perfectly skinny purple beauties are a super fun alternative to the infamous red velvet cake that we all know and love.

Seriously. I don't know anyone that doesn't love red velvet cake. Do you?...

Skinny Banana Bread Cinnamon Rolls

It's the week of mother's day! What better to give the woman in your life other than a nice prepared pan of banana bread cinnamon rolls? Skinny, and just under 200 calories at that!

Or heck, even treat yourself! These are a great make-ahead treat to have ready when you wake up for mothers day breakfast or brunch!

These are soft and fluffy cinnamon rolls that taste like banana bread and are topped with a drizzling of a light cinnamon vanilla frosting. Indulgent and blissful without the guilt!...

Skinny Maple Bacon Cinnamon Rolls

And so the blissful week of bacon inspired recipes continues!

These cinnamon rolls are the perfect morning treat. Reminiscent of pigs-in-a-blanket or pancakes with bacon. The house smelled absolutely wonderful while these were in the oven.

If you're not all about bacon, and I know that there are actually a few of you out there, you can definitely substitute the bacon for another ingredient such as dried fruit or nuts. Yum!...

Skinny Whole Wheat Brownies

Yesterday was cold again and my little girl and I decided to spend the day inside baking up some tasty treats. I made a quick batch of cookies that I was less than impressed with. Needless to say sweet tooth was still not satiated.

Chocolate to the rescue.

These brownies are light, fluffy, chocolatey and cake-like. I ate way more of them than I should have but with less than 150 calories per serving... why not?...
