vegetable platter.

hummus.

greek yogurt dip.

salsa.

stuffed mushrooms. (even though these have butter and breadcrumbs, people who count calories or are on a diet, can choose to have one or two since they are usually small)

shrimp cocktail is a great app for dieters!

fruit for dessert even in chocolate fondue made with dark chocolate for a little something special might be good! or low fat pudding/pudding pie.

My mom used to make Baked Apples when we were growing up - so yummy!

I'm sure there are a ton of recipes out there but basically, take a big apple (like a Delicous) - use an apple corer to get rid of the core, sprinkle with cinnamon, you can put some raisins in the middle if you want - douse apples with diet black cherry soda - can bake in oven or even nuke in microwave. Can eat just like that or with a little Cool Whip.

I love the shrimp cocktail idea! Also marinated chicken skewers. Maybe some Quakes.. I just love them.

Dessert.. how about a trifle made with angel food cake and fruit?
