Fruit Pizza

I made this one up the other day and we really liked it. Ever other time I have made this I have used cookie dough to make the crust but as we are trying to be healthy and I wanted this it be our dinner I did this instead.

*PS the pic is not mine I stole it of some other gals blog. :)

2 cups reduced fat Bisquick
1/3 cup Splenda
1 tsp. Vanilla
1/2 small carton of raspberry or strawberry cream cheese spread
1 tub low fat whipped cream
your favorite fruits( we used blueberries, strawberries, black berries, and banana)

Mix Bisquick, Splenda, vanilla together will enough water to make the consistency of a thick pancake batter. Pour and spread on a prepared cookies sheet and bake at 350 degrees until cooked through. About 10 minutes

When the pancake like "pizza crust" is done let cool on the counter. In a medium bowl whip together half the whipped cream and the cream cheese until well incorporated and set in fridge until the "crust" is completely cooled.

In the mean time chop up your desired fruit.

When the "crust" in cooled spread the cream cheese mixture evenly on top of the "crust" then place the fruit on it in a repeating pattern across the top.

You can serve with remaining whipped cream. My kids loved helping me make this and each had like three servings. Super yummy fun spring time dinner, treat, or breakfast!

Easy Chicken Satay

1 envelope Onion Soup Mix
1/4 cup oil or vegetable oil
2 TB firmly packed brown sugar
2 TB peanut butter
1 pound chicken breasts cut into thin strips or thin chunks
* I added a little super hot garlic pepper sauce.

In a large glass bowl combine soup mix, oil, brown sugar, peanut butter. Then add the cut chicken breasts and toss to coat well. Marinate for 30 minutes.

You can either thread the chicken onto water soaked wooden skewers or spread out on a large cookie sheet. Then Broil or grill chicken. Cook until no longer pink. About 4 minutes each side in the broiler.

Serve with any favorite Thai dipping sauce or by its self. This is Stew's favorite these days.
