Face it: everybody loves dessert. Most of us would eat dessert with every meal, including breakfast, if we had our way. So why not have dessert as often as you like? With these four healthy dessert categories, you can eat dessert without guilt. Enjoy!

• Category 1: Desserts that include fruit. Instead of plain fruit, transform fruit into a tempting dessert by baking apples with cinnamon and raisins, topping canned fruit with vanilla yogurt and granola, or making a fruit pizza using slices of fresh fruit layered on refrigerated biscuit dough spread with cream cheese. Or try these recipes: Banana Ice "Creamless" and Poached Pears.
• Category 2: Desserts with yogurt or milk to boost calcium intake. Dessert can be as simple as pudding or as fancy as a mousse. Make your choice based on the amount of preparation time required, and try these recipes: Yogurt Pie and Chocolate Mousse.
• Category 3: Desserts with oats for added fiber and whole grains, two things usually lacking in our diets. Include oats in your favorite baked goods, or try Cranberry Orange Oatmeal Cookies or Oatmeal Applesauce Cookies for fruit and oats in one dessert.
• Category 4: Chocolate! But instead of looking for a decadently rich dessert, choose a lower-fat recipe that still packs in the flavor. Try Peanut Butter ChocOats or Chocolate Pudding for a new family favorite.
