Here’s another good one for the 4th of July… or if you just have some fresh berries lying around: Red, White and Blueberry Cheesecake Bars.
Believe it or not, this is a lighter fat recipe! Yay for still getting to enjoy treats when you have to diet on the 4th of July 
200 calories and 5 Weight Watcher points for a bar. Not too bad.
You can be flexible with the berries… blueberry, raspberry, blackberry (I wouldn’t do strawberry). Throw in whatever is fresh and on sale.
A foil-lined pan means you just let it cool and then lift it out gently and slice. Easy!
They’re easiest to cut when well chilled. Use a sharp knife and wipe it down between slices for cleanest cuts. Enjoy!
This recipe can be found HERE.

Funny…I saw this post/picture and instantly thought “I love cheesecake…but if I eat it it will go straight to my thighs!” I was happy to read on and see that you have put together a lower fat version here. Our family gathers each year in the Adirondacks for the 4th where we are lucky to have wild blueberries this time of year…we will give this one a try!
Hi – can’t believe these are low fat – they look amazing and think that will be my Sunday bake this week. I love your recipes and have put your weblink on my site bar on my blog. And the pics of the food are great too – make my mouth water!
Oooh these are perfect for the 4th! I find a lot of red, white, and blue, 4th of July desserts to be super tacky, but these actually look classy and fun! Thanks
It does not look low fat which makes them even better! I can’t freaking believe July 4th is right around the corner. It just feels like last week I was cleaning up from NYE party.
