Kraft Kitchens Tips

Makeover - How We Did It
We saved 90 calories and 6 grams of fat, including 5 grams of saturated fat, per serving by making some simple changes. We decreased the amount of pretzels and margarine used to form the crust. Plus, we used better-for-you versions of the PHILADELPHIA Cream Cheese, COOL WHIP and JELL-O Gelatin.
Star-Spangled Strawberry-Pretzel Squares
Substitute 1 cup fresh blueberries for 1 cup of the sliced strawberries.
