Lemon Custard with Blueberries

Photo: 

Dietitian's tip: Tofu — a high-protein bean curd — has a bland, slightly nutty flavor that takes on the flavor of the food with which it's cooked. Here, the silken tofu, along with the soy milk, gives these baked custards a velvety, smooth texture. By Mayo Clinic staff

Grilled Angel Food Cake

Serves 6
 
Dietitian's tip: Angel food cake is a low-fat, airy dessert that is the perfect finish to a summer meal. If you're using the grill for dinner, grill the angel food cake after you finish your meal. Or, if you prefer, broil the angel food cake until it browns.

      1/2 cup unsweetened cocoa powder

      6 tablespoons hot water

      1 tablespoon unsalted butter

      1 tablespoon canola oil
