Dietitian's tip: This fruit cobbler is a lighter, fresher version of the fat-laden, biscuit-topped dessert. 1 cup fresh raspberries For the topping Preheat the oven to 350 F. Lightly coat 6 individual oven-proof ramekins or souffle dishes with cooking spray. In a medium bowl, add the raspberries, blueberries, apples, sugar, cinnamon, lemon zest and lemon juice. Stir to mix evenly. Add the cornstarch and stir until the cornstarch dissolves. Set aside. In a separate bowl add the egg white and whisk until lightly beaten. Add the soy milk, salt, vanilla, sugar and pastry flour. Stir to mix well. Divide the berry mixture evenly among the prepared dishes. Pour the topping over each. Arrange the ramekins on a large baking pan and place in oven. Bake until the berries are tender and the topping is golden brown, about 30 minutes. Serve warm. Nutritional Analysis (per serve) Dietitian's tip: Fattoush is a traditional Lebanese salad seasoned with sumac, a tart, deep red spice made from the dried berries of the sumac bush. It can be found in Middle Eastern groceries and well-stocked supermarkets. For the dressing 2 whole-wheat (whole-meal) pita breads, 6 inches in diameter, torn into 1/2-inch pieces To make the dressing, combine the lemon juice, garlic, cumin, sumac (if using), salt, red pepper flakes and black pepper in a blender or a food processor. Process until smooth. With the motor running, slowly add the olive oil in a thin stream until emulsified. Set the dressing aside. Preheat the oven to 400 F. Spread the pita bread pieces in a single layer on a baking sheet and bake until crisp and lightly golden, about 8 minutes. Set aside to cool. In a large bowl, combine the lettuce, tomatoes, cucumbers, bell pepper, green onions, mint and parsley and toss. Add the dressing and toss lightly to coat evenly. Divide the salad among individual plates. Top with the pita croutons, dividing evenly. Serve immediately. Nutritional Analysis (per serve)Apple berry cobbler
