Low Fat Gluten Free Dessert Nachos



Ok, Ok, I have other normal meals to put up here. I should be making dinner right now even. BUT... I so had to make these as soon as Mike came up with this wacky idea. He wanted dessert nachos on Saturday, despite feeling kinda under the weather and we started coming up with ideas for how to make them actually work. So once I finally went shopping today, I had to actually give these a quick try. They are good and will definitely impress your friends with their weirdness. :)

Chips:

Corn tortillas
Cinnamon
Sugar

Bake tortillas sprinkeled with cinnamon, cut into triangles on a Pam sprayed pan at 450 for about 5-8 mins until crips. Immediately sprinkle with sugar after taking out of oven.

"Refried Beans"

Betty Crocker Gluten free brownie mix
1/4 cup Applesauce
2 Eggs

Make brownies according to box but substitute applesauce for the butter. This lowers calories but keeps them moist. Allow to cool.

"Cheese"

Mango

Freeze a slice of mango until solid and then shred like cheese.

"Salsa"

6 strawberries
Mint leaves

Food process the strawberries and mint until chunky salsa consistancy.

"Lettuce"

Mint leaves cut thinly- Go lightly on these they are very strong.

"Sour Cream"

Fat free frozen yogurt

Take out a teaspoon scoop on the side of dish.

"Guacamole"

Lime sorbet
Kiwi

Slice up the kiwi and mix with a small amount of sorbet.

Combine ingredients as you would on a normal plate of nachos. Serve up to your amazed family and friends. :)
