I am always looking for yummy new recipes to try and when I came across this Red, White and Blue Trifle recipe on pinterest from skinnytaste.com I hit the jackpot. Not only was it amazing to eat but you would never believe that it ended up being a lower calorie dessert option! You can have your cake and eat it too! I did make a few changes to the original recipe which I will listed in parenthesis. I made this for a 4th of July get together and everyone loved it! I thought with Labor Day coming up this weekend it would be a fun dish for a BBQ. There are tons of fresh fruit in season right now so feel free to add or change the berries to your liking. If your interested in the nutritional content you should check out here posting. She even has the weight watcher points calculated.
