Dieting Tips for Grapes
1. Use a flat baking sheet that will withstand the temperature of the freezer.
Place a sheet of wax paper on the pan. Line it with green seedless grapes and place into the freezer until frozen solid.
This is a very refreshing and low calorie treat for the summer months of the year. If the grapes tend to be on the sour side, try rolling into a bit of sugar.
2. Combine different varieties and colors of seedless grapes, placing them into a pretty see-through glass. Top with a serving of light whipped cream.
3. Add them to your next healthy salad mix of greens, cherry tomatoes, cucumber, and lean meat OR drained beans.
