Holiday
Pistachio Dessert
For my best festive menu, I make this "famous" Holiday
Pistachio Dessert, which my children gobble up immediately. It's a
hit at every gathering!

St.
Patrick's Day Cupcakes
These stir-and-bake St.

mix gives them a mild flavor and pretty pastel color that makes them
perfect for St. Patrick's Day.

Key Lime Pie
For a taste of paradise, try this light and creamy confection. Fluffy Key
Lime Pie is low in fat, sugar and fuss. Dessert doesn't get any
easier!

Skinny
Mint-Chip Ice Cream
No one will ever guess that this smooth and creamy Skinny
Mint-Chip Ice Cream is light. For the holidays, it's fun to
substitute 2 cups of crushed peppermint candy canes for the chocolate
chunks.

Shamrock
Meringue Cups
Celebrate St. Patrick's Day with these cute Shamrock
Meringue Cups. The recipe is a low-fat take on an old
family-favorite lime pie. It's always a hit at potlucks and church
suppers.

Pudding Parfaits
I made this Pistachio

Patrick's Day. Everyone loved it. It can be made right before you eat it
or a few hours before hand.

Lemon-Lime
Punch
This frothy citrusy refresher topped with lime sherbet is a longtime
family favorite and the best punch I've ever had. Lemon-Lime
Punch is so fast, festive and easy to mix up for all kinds of
occasions.

fun green swirls are great for St. Patrick's Day.

Lime Salad
To start your feast off right, be sure to hand out lucky shamrocks—in
the shape of those that top this sweet Lucky Lime
Salad! Making them is merely a matter of cutting gelatin with a
cookie cutter.
