"Nice Cream" Pie

Craving a cool refreshing ice cream dessert as the weather is getting warmer? Watching your calorie intake too? This pie is like an ice cream dessert but nicer on your waistline. Ice Cream... Nice Cream... Get it? Fine, the name is lame, but the pie is delish!

1/2 tub Lite Cool Whip
1 individual container lowfat yogurt (any flavor, but lime is especially fabulous - key lime pie without the guilt!)
6 prepared individual graham cracker crusts

Fold the yogurt into the Cool Whip and divide among graham cracker crusts. Freeze, defrost for about 20 minutes before eating... & devour!

Each pie has around 160 calories. Yum!

I'm baaaaack...

Blogger forgive me. It has been a year and a half since my last post. But I'm back!

Man have I been busy! To sum up the past 18 months or so... I finally got pregnant (woo hoo) and welcomed my son into the world on November 24, 2010 (double woo hoo!). The past 6 months have been a whirlwind. My little family and I moved to a new city, I quit my job, and am now a stay at home mom. I have been so focused on my attempts to be the best Mom ever that I forgot about being the best Me ever. Which brings me to today's post.
Just because I have a new baby doesn't mean I have been away from the kitchen. In fact, I think I might even cook more now that I am a full time mom... probably because I am one of those moms that make their own baby food (Take that, Gerber).
But I digress.
I missed blogging. I missed sharing my recipes. I missed hearing if anyone has tried any of these ideas in their own kitchens. I missed forming sentences that didn't include the word "diaper" or "binkie." I missed this.
It's good to be back.
