1. Grilled Peaches
"In addition to its many vitamins and minerals, low-calorie content and, of course, delicious flavor, the peach also comes packed with great antioxidants, including all five classifications of carotenoids," said Dr. Josh Axe, a clinical nutritionist. Drizzle them with honey if you want to sweeten them up even more.
2. Fruit Salad
You can’t go wrong with eating a bowl of healthy fruit salad. It’s low-fat and all natural! "Healthy fruit salad also contains fiber that helps you feel satisfied after meals and helps move food through the system to avoid constipation," said nutritionist and health blogger Victoria Vito. "Moreover, fruit salad provides beneficial potassium, which is a heart-healthy mineral, as well as orange-red pigments, known as carotenoids that our body turns into vitamin A."
3. Frozen Yogurt
If you’re really craving ice cream, opt for frozen yogurt instead. Look for types that are fat-free and low in calories. "A 1/2-cup serving of frozen yogurt made with nonfat milk and low-calorie sweetener will set you back a mere 71 calories, according to the U.S. Department of Agriculture's National Nutrient Database," Livestrong reports.
4. Oatmeal Cookies
Cookies aren’t usually healthy because of all of the added sugar in them, but you can make recipes without that. Adding antioxidant and fiber-rich oatmeal to a classic cookie gives the dessert a mini health boost. If you limit yourself to just eating one as a snack, it won’t cost you too many calories.
5. Carrot Cake
Most carrot cakes aren’t good for you because they’re made with full-fat cream cheese frosting and a lot of sugar. If you make one with Greek yogurt and Greek cream cheese instead, it will lower the amount of fat in it and give you an extra protein boost. With vitamin-A rich carrots and antioxidant-rich cinnamon and nutmeg, this is a dessert you can feel good about eating.
