Rowing, sailing, swimming, cooking and eating. What's on your plate?
Here's another more "traditional" dessert you might like to try. They're little apple turnovers that are only 49 cals each! I'd substitute 1/2 splenda for the sugar, further lowering the calories and reducing the sugar content for those who are sensitive.
Great served warm!

• 2 1/4 cups peeled, cored, chopped tart (like Granny Smith) apples
• 1 1/2 teaspoons lemon juice
• 1/4 cup granulated sugar
• 1 tablespoon all-purpose flour
• 1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon
• 1/8 teaspoon salt
• dash of ground nutmeg
• 10 sheets frozen phyllo (filo) pastry, thawed
• vegetable cooking spray
Combine apple and lemon juice in a small bowl; toss gently. Add sugar,
flour, and next 3 ingredients and set aside.
Spray 1 phyllo (filo) sheet at a time with cooking spray, and cut each sheet
lengthwise into 4 - 3 1/4 inch wide strips. Stack 2 strips, 1 on top of
the other. Spoon 1 heaping tbsp. apple mixture onto 1 end of each strip,
and spread to within 1 inch of end; fold the left bottom corner over
mixture, forming a triangle. Keep folding back and forth into a triangle to end
of strip. Repeat procedure with remaining ingredients.
Place the triangles, seam side down, on a baking sheet. Lightly spray tops with cooking spray. Bake at 400 degrees for 7 minutes or until golden. Serve warm.
Makes 20 turnovers.
