    Default Low Calorie Blueberry-Lemon Tiramisu

    Sometimes it wouldn't hurt if we say yes to desserts and give in to our sweet tooth. I found this recipe from delish and I just couldn't wait to share it with you. This is a delicious and healthy desert that dieters shouldn't miss with just 165 calories! I couldn't believe it when I first read it. You have to try this one

    Ingredients

    1 lemons (up to 2)
    3 3/4 cup(s) blueberries
    3/4 cup(s) sugar
    4 tablespoon(s) water
    1 container(s) (17.6-ounce ) nonfat Greek yogurt
    1 package(s) (3-ounce) ladyfingers
    Mint sprig for garnish

    Directions

    1.) From lemon(s), grate 1 1/2 teaspoons peel and squeeze 1/4 cup juice.

    2.) In medium saucepan, combine 1 1/2 cups blueberries, 1/4 cup sugar, and 1 tablespoon water. Heat on medium 5 minutes, or until blueberries soften and juices thicken, stirring occasionally. Transfer to medium bowl and stir in 1 1/2 cups blueberries. Set aside.

    3.) Prepare lemon syrup: In microwave-safe small bowl, combine 1/4 cup sugar and remaining 3 tablespoons water. Cook in microwave on High 1 minute. Stir in 3 tablespoons lemon juice and 1 teaspoon lemon peel.

    4.) In medium bowl, stir together nonfat yogurt and remaining 1/4 cup sugar, 1 tablespoon lemon juice, and 1/2 teaspoon lemon peel.

    5.) In 8" by 8" ceramic or glass baking dish, arrange half of ladyfingers. Brush with half of lemon syrup. Spoon blueberry mixture evenly over ladyfingers. Arrange remaining ladyfingers over blueberries. Brush with remaining lemon syrup. Spoon yogurt mixture on top, spreading evenly. Cover and refrigerate overnight. To serve, top tiramisu with remaining 3/4 cup blueberries and garnish with mint sprig.

    Tips & Techniques

    We tested this recipe with both soft and hard (Italian-style) ladyfingers (sometimes called Savoiardi) and had good results with both types. For the best texture, let the tiramisu sit in the refrigerator overnight.

    This is a great recipe Mikaela! This surely is a treat that dieters shouldn't miss. I never expected this to only be 165 . Totally guilt free!

    I agree! This is a must taste dessert . If my mom makes this today, I'll surely grab a piece this time! I think I'm going to use brown sugar instead of the refined one to make it healthier
