If you are active and enjoy performing physical sports, you
probably make an extra effort to watch what you eat. Just because you like to
put in a grueling workout does not necessarily mean that you don’t have a sweet
tooth. However, if you are looking to stay in peak condition, you have to alter
some of your eating habits a bit. This means instead of indulging in the triple
chocolate cake, you need to reach for more health dessert alternatives. There
are so many healthy dessert recipes available that contain so much less fat and
sugar than traditional recipes.
If you are a sporter (boxer, runner or so) that watches the amount of sugar you
put in your body, these are a few of the healthy desserts that you can eat
guilt-free:
Chocolate Covered Strawberries
Even if you are a running enthusiast or spend your weekend’s
mountain biking through the rough terrain, chances are you still have a sweet
spot for chocolate. If you are not a big baker and can’t seem to quit your
chocolate craving, you can feed your body with the best of both worlds. Why not
indulge in chocolate covered fruits. This gives your body the vitamins and
natural nourishment that it desires for fuel, but also helps you feed your
chocolate craving. The best part is that no matter what your baking skills are,
you can make this healthy dessert with nor problem at all.
Blueberry & White Chocolate Chunk Ginger Cookies
Sometimes the healthiest desserts are just a twist on an old
favorite. Instead of reaching for a batch of traditional homemade chocolate
chip cookies, you can make some blueberry and white chocolate chunk ginger
cookies that are just as tasty. These cookies might seem a bit intimidating to
bake due to their name, but they are really simple to whip up. All you have to
do is stir all the ingredients together and give them time to bake. This is one
healthy dessert that you will definitely be baking again. Once bite and you
will be hooked.
Baby Tiramisu
There are some exquisite desserts that you simply can’t live
without no matter how dedicated you are to your body and your sport. If you are
a huge fan of the traditional Italian dessert Tiramisu, you can just trim off
some of the fat and sugar for a lower-calorie version that still hits the spot.
This is a classic dessert that you can make quickly and you can use any type of
ladyfinger that you find most appetizing.
Cherries with Ricotta & Toasted Almonds
You might think that ricotta cheese is just an ingredient
for lasagna, but it actually is the main ingredient in a really tasty and
satisfying dessert. This luscious creation also includes cherries and toasted
almonds that make it low in calories, but big in taste. It is now possible to
indulge without feeling guilty in your dessert selection.
All of these healthy desserts are ideal for sporters just
like you.
