I had this recipe on Thanksgiving, during my stay at Duke Diet Fitness Center in Durham NC. It's tasty and sure hits the spot. A real treat for those who are trying to lose weight! I use fat free half and half and Brown Sugar Twin in place of the brown sugar to cut the calories even more. Nutritional Value: Calories 250 Fat 6.3 g Protein 3.3 g Fiber 2.7 g Sodium 149 mg
