Skinny Summer Dessert: "Deconstructed" Chocolate Strawberry Pie

So, I mentioned that I'm on a summer torture diet plan.  It's really not that bad.  I eat pretty clean already...I've just cut out the snacks (and I'm a snacking girl).  My husband is also eating better, and my parents are both on Weight Watchers right now.  All of these circumstances combined, makes for a grumpy bunch (just kidding!) - the circumstances definitely make "food get-togethers" challenging.
We must have a dessert.  Hence, this tasty treat made it's way into our lives ... to stay!  Everyone was smiling after tasting this sweet treat!
Best dishes and yummy dreams!

Looks delish! I'm all for skinny desserts that taste good - why add fat if you don't have to! :)
