To end a long and hard week of school, I decided to make a delicious dessert recipe. I chose to make a low calorie vanilla cupcake with rasberry frosting. This cupcake contains a mere 79.6 calories, whereas the typical cupcake has 179! Thats 100 calories less. This recipe uses egg whites, salt, honey, vanilla extract, Greek yogurt, whole wheat flour, baking powder, low-fat cream cheese, and fresh rasberries. This cupcake is the perfect ending to any meal, especially a party or game-day meal. They are extremely easy to eat when on the go because they are small and simple to eat and make. I recommend this recipe to everyone!
After researching for several weeks, I have learned that greek yogurt is a healthy ingredient to incorporate into cooking. It is extremely low in calories, and extremely high in protein. I am going to continue looking for recipes in that I can use greek yogurt to lower the calories and increase the nutrients and protein.
This weekend I am going to research and relax. It has been a very busy week, and next week I will continue cooking new recipes to add to my final cookbook!
