For an easy showstopper, give Julie Meyer's eye-popping fruit pizza a try. "Like everyone else, I enjoy desserts...but not the calories that come with them," writes the student from Madison, Wisconsin. "My roommates and I don't fell guilty about gobbling down a pizza with good-for-you toppings like strawberries, Kiwifruit and pineapple."

Fruit pizzas are always a big hit when I make them for work. Sometimes I use sugar cookie dough for the crust or I will make a crust using a cake mix. There are so many ways to decorate the top using different fruits. Glaze them with apple jelly or apricot preserves. Yummy
I have never used pie crust guess I willhave to give it a try. I make a crust from scratch but have also used sugar cookie dough. Any way you make it is great.
I've made a similiar 'pizza' using a baked meringue and was a
GREAT hit.
I love Fruit pizza--in the past I have used cressant rolls for the crust and creamcheese and powdered sugar for the "sauce" and have used drained crushed pineapple for the first layer--i will definatly try this one sounds great!!!!
One thing I have been doing lately for a sugar supplement in my pies and cream fillings is using honey. It is all natural and you don't have to use as much and it really adds to the flavor!
Perfect fruit pizza ! breakfast, lunch or dinner !! Delicious +++!
RE: Fruit Pizza
While your nutritional is good, you might want to consided adding sugar grams along with fat, etc. Cooking light also includes monitoring sugar in take. Thanks! I've been making this dessert for years but using a much more fatty/sugary cookie base. Now I will use a prepared pie shell!
GREAT!! I have used the orig recipe with cookie dough base. My husband is diabetic and this is better suitable for him.
Well, I've thoroughly denied this has any sugar or calorie threats...I've made versions of this with a brownie base and since I work at a major pizza franchise, I have also used the thin crust, prebaked also, and it comes out fabulous also. Enjoy!
