RealAge effect if eaten 12 times a year:
Berries of all kinds are powerhouses of fiber. That plus the flavonoids in chocolate make your RealAge 7.2 days younger.
RealAge-effect ingredients:
Strawberries, whole-grain granola (fiber, flavonoids)
Ingredients:
• 4 (½-cup) scoops nonfat or low-fat chocolate frozen yogurt
• 1½ cups sliced strawberries
• 1 cup low-fat granola cereal, such as Quaker brand
• 2 teaspoons confectioners’ sugar
Preparation:
Scoop yogurt into four serving bowls; top with strawberries and granola. Place confectioners’ sugar in a strainer and shake over sundaes.
Substitutions:
One cup whole-grain cereal flakes may replace the granola. Coffee-flavored frozen yogurt may replace the chocolate frozen yogurt, and blueberries may replace the strawberries (a Chocolate Blueberry Sundae).
Tips:
For a special occasion, drizzle a bit of Baileys Irish Cream (a cream liqueur) or chocolate liqueur over the sundae just before serving. The confectioners’ sugar brightens the color of the dessert; just ½ teaspoon per serving is all that’s needed. For color, place all the strawberries on top. If you can find them, get the tiny alpine strawberries instead. Nuggets of berry goodness, they still grow wild, and can be found in farmers’ markets.
