Pineapple Cream Cheese Pie with Berries

Dietitian's tip: Instead of a whipped cream pie, this dessert — similar to a tart — has more healthy fruit. If you prefer, you can use any type of fresh, unsweetened berries, such as strawberries, blueberries or blackberries.

Serves 8

Ingredients

    • 8 ounces fat-free cream cheese, softened
    • 2 tablespoons granulated sugar
    • 1 prepared graham cracker crust, about 9 inches in diameter
    • 1 can (16 ounces) unsweetened crushed pineapple, drained
    • 1 pint raspberries, rinsed and drained

Directions

1.      In a small bowl, mix the softened cream cheese with the sugar.

2.      Gently spread over the graham cracker crust.

3.      Refrigerate until well chilled, about 2 hours.

4.      Just before serving, spread the crushed pineapple over the cream cheese.

5.      Add the raspberries.

6.      Cut the pie into 8 wedges and serve immediately.
