Low-calorie and no-sugar dessert recipe that includes strawberries?

Question

Or if you know of a website that offers a variety of low calories recipes would be great. I'm going to my Mother-in-law's this weekend and want to bring something along. Her and her husband can't have sugar and I'm dieting so anything you can find would help out greatly!

Answer 1

Low Carb Cheesecake

This is a basic cheesecake recipe. It is fairly dense (and becomes more so when completely cold). We like it with a strawberry topping, especially when strawberries are in season. I haven't tried very much variation as far as fat levels in the cream cheese, but I think you can substitute, at least to an extent. When I tried just substituting low fat for one of the bricks, the batter seemed slightly looser, but I only detected a slight difference in the final product.

INGREDIENTS:
3 packages (1 and 1/2 lbs) cream cheese (preferably room temperature)
4 eggs (preferably room temperature)
1 and 1/2 teaspoon (1/2 Tablespoon) vanilla
1 and 1/2 teaspoon (1/2 Tablespoon) lemon juice
1 and 1/3 cups worth of artificial sweetener (I like liquid concentrages for this recipe)
1/4 cup sour cream
Crust
1 cup almond meal
2 T melted butter
2T worth artificial sweetener
PREPARATION:
Heat oven to 375 F.

Tip: If you have bricks or a pizza stone or unglazed ceramic tile*, put them on the lower rack of the oven. This will hold the heat in the oven. This is good for cheesecakes not baked in a water bath.
Well, actually, it's helpful for any kind of baking, as it keeps the heat in the oven more constant. I keep a pizza stone in the oven most of the time.)

1. Combine ingredients for crust, and press into the bottom of a springform pan. Bake for 8-10 minutes, until fragrant and beginning to brown.

Raise oven heat to 400 F., or lower to 350 F if you're using a water bath (see below).

2. Put cream cheese in mixing bowl, and beat until fluffy. Add other ingredients, scraping the bowl and beaters each time (this is very important), fully incorporating each ingredient. When all ingredients are combine, scrap one more time, beat one more minute, and pour mixture into pan over crust.


Instructions for water bath: Wrap the bottom and sides of the springform pan in foil, put it in a baking pan and pour boiling water around the sides. Bake at 350 for 60-90 minutes, checking often. When the cake is firm to touch but slightly soft in the center, or the center reaches 155 degress F., remove from oven.


Instructions for non-water bath: For this method, you start the cake at a high temperature, and it slowly drops. If you have stoneware, bricks, etc, this allows it to happen at a slower rate, and I get better results in less time. Put the cheesecake on a sheet pan in case of drippage. After putting the cheesecake in the oven at 400 degrees, turn the oven down to 200. Bake for 60-90 minutes, checking often after an hour. When the cake is firm to touch but slightly soft in the center, or the center reaches 155 degrees F., remove from oven.

Chill completely. Top with fruit, if desired, such as Sugar-Free Strawberry Topping.

If you want to eat truly healthy, lose body fat consistently, normalize your blood pressure, cholesterol levels, prevent cancer, and even boost your brain health and energy levels, you may have heard all over the news that the Paleo Diet has been found to be one of the best methods of achieving all of these benefits compared to any other popular "fad" diets out there. Go here https://bitly.im/aMC3K

The truth is that the Paleo Diet will never be considered a fad because it's just simply the way that humans evolved to eat over approximately 2 million years. And eating in a similar fashion to our ancestors has been proven time and time again to offer amazing health benefits, including prevention of most diseases of civilization such as cancer, heart disease, alzheimers, and other chronic conditions that are mostly caused by poor diet and lifestyle. One of the biggest misunderstandings about the Paleo Diet is that it's a meat-eating diet, or a super low-carb diet. This is not true
