Saved some of the berries and juice and put them on a scoop of ricotta cheese the next day. I will make this again.

Instead of granulated sugar use Splenda. Tastes the same.

Dear HenryH-I just looked at a rhubarb coffee cake that had 66g. carbs per serving--33g. is certainly lighter, wouldn't you say? A recipe can be noted as light for a number of different reasons. There is only 1 g. of fat. If any recipe does not meet the specific needs of any one of us, we have only to find one that does--No need to rail against the site, the contributor, or anyone else. The recipe is not the one who needs to lighten up!

I would like to know the nutrition information if this recipe was served on lettuce leaves instead of in phyllo nests. Thanks

Why can't people just say something good or not say anything at all? Did you try it before writing your post? This was "lighter" as presented in the recipe - great presentation- and very good idea for a Summer dessert. Thank you for the recipe.

I would say this would be considered diet. I attend Weight Watchers and figured the points and it is only 2 points. Not bad for something that sounds so good Am anxious to try.
