  1. Enjoyed by my DH and I.I did add 2 tablespoons flour to the topping.Skipped the lemon peel in the batter. Over 2 teaspoons in the topping and blueberries was enough.Didn`t need the ice cream! Thanks!

<p>I love cooking and trying different foods, but my favorite cookbooks are now Weight Watchers or low fat/low cal cookbooks as I tend to try and make low fat/low cal recipes. I lost over 90 pounds on Weight Watchers and have maintained for over a year now -- so my cooking/eating habits have changed drastically following my weight loss and to keep it off!</p>
