Rhubarb Cobbler Parfaits
For those of you who follow A Few Short Cuts on Instagram you have seen that I have been working my little tushie off. I hope quite literally. My sister is getting married in October and yours truly needs to fit into a cute little dress by then. I have a little problem. I love food! Big fat hamburgers, french fries, cupcakes…..I could go on, but it is just making me hungry.
For the last 2 weeks straight I have been good (except for that one slice of pizza the other night but I am not counting it) . I have been eating more fruits and veggies, lean meat, and not so many treats. I have been working out too! I feel great, and I know it is good for me, but…..I’M SO HUNGRY! ~giggle~
Dessert tonight is kinda my happy medium right now. These Rhubarb Cobbler Parfaits bring in a great seasonal veggie in a delicious way. I feel a little less guilty about indulging in a small bowlful with some whipped cream. And it is so amazingly tasty it will knock you off your feet.
