Delicious Discovery

The Laughing Cow


Who doesn't love cheese?  Anyone?  I didn't think so.  However, it can be pretty hard to stick to a healthy diet when you feel the need to add cheese to everything...sandwiches, pasta, pizza etc.  Thanks to the people at Laughing Cow--eating cheese and sticking to your diet is a whole lot easier.


Laughing Cow specializes in what I like to call "portable cheese".  Mini Babybel comes in 5 varieties--original, light, gouda, bonbel and cheddar.  The light version is delicious and has just 50 calories and 3 grams of fat.  It comes wrapped up in a red wax coating, which prevents it from getting squished in your lunch.  It's great to pair with some almonds or with fruit.  


The Laughing Cow wedges are equally delicious.  It is much softer, spreadable cheese.  There are 4 varieties: swiss, light swiss, light garlic and herb and light french onion.  One light wedge has just 35 calories and 2 grams of fat.  It is yummy.  I promise that one wedge goes a long long way.  Spread it on a sandwich or on a cracker.  You will think you are cheating on your diet-- it's that decadent.  


Laughing Cow is sold in most grocery stores.  I like to buy it at BJ's--it comes in a 3 pack so you don't have to keep running to the store to stock up.  So go ahead...have a little bit of cheese!
