Lite Fruit Pizza | Life With Garnish

This past weekend I was fortunate enough to be able to go to one of my most favorite places. THE FLEA MARKET!

The closest one I have to me is an hour away and only open on Saturdays and Sundays so I’m not able to go too often. I’m like a kid in a candy store when I get to visit that land of awesome treasures.

Not only did I come away with some really awesome Pyrex dishes at an extremely cheap, cheap price, I was also able to snag me some really delicious strawberries and pineapples for a very reasonable price.

These are Plant City, FL strawberries, mind you. Have you ever been to the Strawberry Festival in Plant City? I was able to go a few years ago and it was awesome! Tons of food, rides, shows and lots and lots of fresh juicy strawberries.

When I’m able to come across lots of yummy fruit I like to make this lite fruit pizza for the kids. It’s just fun, you know? And so pretty.

I use the Sweet As Sugar Cookies Recipe from the Splenda website to make the “pizza crust” and Neufchatel cheese in place of regular cream cheese for the topping.
