Caramel Apple Dip the Healthy Way

Memorial Day is just around the corner which means cookouts, pool time and FOOD!!! Now as a pregnant lady I could just say "F this, I'm eating what I want" BUT that will not serve me well come late November when I am able to get my workout back on... I have SUCH a sweet tooth (even before I got pregnant) that I find myself looking for options that satisfy both my inner fat kid and won't add to my growing belly. My sister always makes this dip for large family gatherings so I revamped it to be a bit healthier... Super excited to try this version out this weekend!

What You Need
* 8 oz low fat cream cheese (softened- this means leave it out of the fridge for at least an hour)
* 1/2 tub of fat free Cool Whip (about 6 oz)
*16 oz jar of caramel sauce (there are healthy options low sugar options, stick with one of those)
* 1 cup of granola
*1/2 cup semi sweet mini morsel chocolate chips (optional- sweet tooth remember)
* apple slices- I like Granny smith since they are a tad bitter

What You Need To Do
1. Mix together SOFTENED cream cheese and Cool Whip. You can hand mix or use electric mixer but you want it smooth so the softer the cream cheese the easier this will be if mixing by hand.

2. Place mixture in shallow serving bowl.

3. Top with layer of caramel sauce.

4. If you are serving right away you can add the granola immediately. If traveling to your gathering, wait to put the granola on when you get there.. it keeps it crunchy!
