It was healthy and filling. The meatloaf was lowfat (I used 96% lean beef) and only 5 pts. per serving. The family was none the wiser!
Since dinner was so healthful, I thought I could indulge in a little ice cream. I have been buying this Breyers Double Churn Fat Free ice cream. It is very good. Even the husband will eat it! I made a chocolate caramel "sundae" with 1/2 c. of the fat free chocolate ice cream, a container of the caramel dip and a tiny blob of fat free cool whip. I put a Cafe Twist in to fancy it up. I warmed the caramel a bit so it started to melt the ice cream a little. It was ooey gooey goodness.
These Cafe Twists are crunchy, flaky and very sweet. They come in quite a few flavors. Two of these guys are only 1 pt.! Yummy with a steaming cup of tea...
Have a great night!

I do not like sweet potatoes and have never made them. I don't even eat the Christmas full of fat sweet potatoe caserole! But I'm willing to give these fries a shot if your husband & kids eat them. Do you mind sharing recipe? Thanks. Helen
Helen-
All I do is take a large sweet potato or two, cut it in half, then slice each half into "fry -size". Place them in a bowl, add about 1-2 tsp. of olive oil and season well with salt and pepper. I spray a baking sheet with nonstick spray and place the fries in a single layer. Put them in a 400 degree oven for about 15-20 min. or until done. You can flip them halfway through if you want. You get a lot of bang for your buck; 7 oz. of cooked sweet potato is only 3 pts! I only had about 4 oz. in my picture and it was a lot! Also, these don't come out very crispy, so the word "fry" may be misleading. They are slightly crispy and firm in texture. Really tasty!
