Syrup and the Calorie Conundrum

Another weekend breakfast rolls around. Still stewing about keeping the calorie deficit going. 

The sweet tooth jeers, "So whatcha gonna do about it, huh?  Huh?"

Blueberries.  That's what I'm gonna do about it!



Blueberry Maple Syrup

1 c. frozen blueberries
2 T. pure grade B maple syrup
lemon juice
cinnamon

Microwave the blueberries and the syrup together, until thawed and warm.  Mash them a little or a lot.  Add a squirt of lemon and a sprinkle of cinnamon.  Stir it up and pour it on.  

1/4 c. Maple Syrup = 210 calories
1/4 c. Blueberry Maple Syrup = 44 calories

Take that, Mr. Sweet Tooth!
