Blueberry Brunch Casserole Recipe
Robin Decker, of Kalispell, Mont., created a wonderful fruit casserole perfect for brunch. To “lighten” it, we’ve used a combination of egg whites and whole eggs, 2% reduced-fat milk, fat-free cream cheese and fat-free yogurt. The savings: 120 calories, 18g fat and 140mg cholesterol.Ingredients
