[quote=Anonymous]We eat something for dessert each night mostly because it’s fun low-stress family time. It’s the time my kids are most likely to talk about their days and the time I’m least likely to be nagging. So please don’t tell me to cut dessert. Instead of eliminating dessert, I’m looking for new, easy, not-too-unhealthy ideas. Store-bought preferred, but easy homemade is fine too. Here’s what’s in our rotation. I’m looking for more ideas: -homemade or store bought popsicles (this is my kid’s favorite) -leftover Halloween candy (yup—it’s never ending) -store bought cookies or granola bars or ice cream Out of these, the only somewhat healthy thing is the homemade popsicles. Anything you’d add that’s more healthy than leftover candy while still being fun and appealing? I’m not trying to take the fun out of our dessert ritual; I just want some options that have a bit less added sugars and dyes and I’m wondering what your kids like as “treats.”[/quote]
