Fruit Salad With Yogurt
The fruit is quite high in natural sugar (fructose) so keep the portion of fruit still reasonable. Berries and kiwis tend to be better for sugar content than bananas and oranges.
Natural yogurt is a lower calorie cream alternative, and if you pay attention to your calories, low-fat yogurt will reduce calories even further.
Vegan Oatmeal Cookies Without Sugar
Soft, chewy and without added sugar. Sweeten this classic oatmeal cake with ripe bananas and raisins or dates. Plus, a touch of peanut butter adds a lot of flavor and brings the cake together while keeping it vegan and gluten-free.

Mousse and Sugar Free Jelly
Most supermarkets today have a range of sugar-free desserts, including mousse and jelly. Sugar-free desserts are often easy to prepare and also low in calories, especially if you use skim or semi-skimmed milk in mousses.
Low-carb cheesecake
Low-carb cheesecakes can be obtained by replacing crushed digestive biscuits for base with lower carb alternatives. Almond foods are a good substitute for digestive biscuits.
Sugar is usually used in cheesecake stuffing, but this can be replaced with sweeteners. Add the fruit of your choice to an appetizing topping.
Chocolate strawberries
Give variety to your fruit intake by making chocolate-coated strawberries. Using concentrated cooked chocolate will help you maintain the carbohydrate value.
Start by preparing the chocolate. Take the cooked chocolate and cut it into equal sized pieces. You will need a glass bowl that can be tightly over the top of the pan without getting too close to the bottom of the pan.
Put an inch or so of water in the pan and apply over a low heat and when it starts to boil, turn off the heat and place a glass bowl, with chunks of chocolate over the pan.
The chocolate will melt on steam in the pan. When the chocolate starts to melt, stir with a spatula until the chocolate completely melts.
At this stage, remove from the glass bowl from the pan and continue stirring until the viscosity of the chocolate is smooth. Keep the stems on top of strawberries to make them easier to dip and when closed, put them on a plate or baking sheet. Place a plate or tray into the fridge for a few minutes for the chocolate to harden.
