When you love food and you’re trying to lose weight, finding desserts that won’t completely sabotage your diet can be hard.  Especially if you have a sweet tooth like me!  Dessert is my jam.

I can’t remember if I told you I’m back on Weight Watchers.  I know I mentioned in my weekly newsletter.  Anywho, I’ve lost 9 pounds and I am determined to lose 50 pounds or more this time around.  I even joined a gym.  I truly want this to be a lifestyle change, but we all know how easy it is to fall of the wagon.

So, with weight loss on my mind and a love for dessert lingering in the distance, what’s a girl to do?  Find delicious low-point desserts.  That’s where these Mini Lemon Cheesecake Tarts come into the picture, a Weight Watcher dessert that is low on points and scores high in flavor.

Did I mention this is a Weight Watchers dessert with only one point per tart. Recipe at livelaughrowe.comI was so excited to try this recipe, but couldn’t find the mini phyllo shells anywhere.  It crossed my mind to try making them on my own — and that didn’t really go as planned.  Phyllo fail… haha!  I had already make the cream cheese filling, so I had to figure something out.

Guess where I looked next? Amazon!  I ordered a set of three boxes and had them in two days.  Woo hoo!  I couldn’t wait to assemble these bite-size treats.

    I’m planning to make this tomorrow. I was wondering if you thought the 2 t. Of lemon juice was enough? Was it tart/tangy enough? Thanks!
