If you are like me, you delight in desserts! And, growing up in New England, dessert means ice cream. Check your labels - most gourmet ice cream will provide you with 250-350 calories per 1/2 cup serving! Don't fool yourself about those yummy cones you have at the neighborhood take out - most of these are at least a cup of creamy calories packed into a crispy waffle. That'll cost you. Have you done enough physical activity to burn off a 700 calorie ice cream cone today? (That's about 3 hours walking for me...) If the answer is no - and I suspect it is... try this delicious HMR Pudding Parfait instead. For fewer calories than the average scoop and plenty of protein (28 gms) and fruit to boot - you have a high volume, nutritious dessert to sink your sweet tooth into. Enjoy!

Are you a volume eater? Think you can't eat Italian and still lose weight? Think again. Make this recipe in less than 2 minutes and you are on your way to a delicious, filling Italian meal. Add even more veggies like peppers, onions, spinach or green beans...Volume?!! Now that's what I'm talking about!
