[4 SP per serving] Right off, I'd like to be perfectly clear, this is not as good as my mother's recipe, but that would be a far cry from something that is healthy. This is a take on my mother's recipe that has been tweaked to be much healthier. I grew up eating this stuff, and I have to say that it is delicious but fattening. So in this recipe, I replaced the sugar with Truvia and the butter with no-fat margarine. The taste is affected a little, but only a little, and it drops from 7 SP to 4. This is healthy enough to eat for breakfast, which I highly recommend.

Notes
This dish reminds me of my mother as she made it for us two only; no one else in the house liked it (they're crazy). Like I stated previously, her recipe was not healthy. This take is much healthier, and still gives me the reminders of my mother. Happy eating!
