Creamy Cinnamon Caramel Fruit Dip
This is one of my absolute favorite new healthy recipes - especially since I am not an apple lover.
2 8 oz packages fat free cream cheese, softened
2/3 c brown sugar
1 t cinnamon
1/2 c fat free caramel ice cream topping
Mix well with electric mixer until smooth. This is great with little pieces of bagel, apples, bananas (any fruit really). We've eaten it on graham crackers instead of frosting. We absolutely love it. A serving size is about 2 Tablespoons.

Black Bean Salsa
This is an awesome recipe when you are asked to bring an appetizer or something to share at a party. Serve with baked tortilla chips or baked multi-grain crackers for a very healthy version!
2 cans black beans, drained and rinsed
1 can black eyed peas, drained and rinsed
1 - 2 cans corn
1 bunch cilantro, chopped
1/2 medium onion chopped (sweet purple is the best)
1 chopped red bell pepper
1 chopped green bell pepper
minced garlic to taste
1 t sugar
1 t cumin
1 avocado, diced, if desired
fat free Zesty Italian dressing
Mix all ingredients together except dressing. Then coat with dressing and toss. You can add other items if you would like. Some nummy additions are mandarin oranges, diced fresh tomatoes, diced green chilies (or jalapenos if you like it hot).
I know this is high in carbs but it is also really high in fiber, vitamins and protein and other healthy stuff!
