| Lemon Blueberry Cheesecake Tarts |
If one of your resolutions this year was to eat healthier and practice portion control, but you still miss a little treat now and then–keep reading!
While no one professes that cheesecake is a healthy choice, it can certainly be part of a healthy eating plan. Portion control is the key here. Since these tarts are only the size of a smallish cupcake, you get all the taste, yet much fewer calories and fat. Not guiltless, but pretty close to it.
These tarts have a light, lemony flavor in the filling. More lemon in the base, which is a lemon sandwich cookie, and the bright flavor of blueberry in the topping.
