A fruit salad/fruit tray is always good (choose low glycemic mostly).
Also I've made the Dr. Phil cream pie and it is good...here is the recipe:
Banana Cream Pie
Banana cream pie is always a treat and a favorite at family gettogethers.
If you are among the banana cream pie lovers of the
world, you’ll surely enjoy what’s in store for you here. The fat and
calories have been cut back, but with no corresponding loss of
richness or flavor. And, there’s an unexpected nutritional bonus: a
healthy dose of fiber and lots of calcium in every bite.
8 servings
21/2 cups Banana Nut Crunch Cereal
2 tablespoons light margarine spread, at room temperature
2 (1-ounce) packages sugar-free, fat-free instant banana cream
or vanilla pudding mix
2 tablespoons fat-free powdered dry milk
2 cups cold fat-free milk
2 ripe bananas, peeled and roughly chopped
2 cups sugar-free, fat-free vanilla yogurt (I don't do this part; I either put a bit of nutriwhip on it or else I mix 1 packet of dream whip with 1 packet of sugar free vanilla pudding, add milk and whip).
1. Position a rack in the lower third of the oven and preheat to
325°F.
2. Place the cereal in a food processor fitted with the chopping
blade and process until finely ground, about 30 seconds. Add
the margarine spread and process until a soft ball of dough begins
to form. Pour the dough into a 9-inch pie pan and press it
into an even crust across the bottom and up the sides of the pan.
Alternatively, place the cereal in a zipper plastic bag, squeeze out
all the air, and seal tightly. Using a heavy rolling pin or the bottom
of a large, heavy saucepan, pulverize the cereal to the texture of
fine meal, rotating the bag frequently so the cereal is uniformly
crushed. Transfer the cereal to a medium bowl and cut in the
margarine spread with a pastry cutter or two forks, until the mixture
begins to form a dough. Press the dough into the pie pan as
indicated.
3. Bake for 10 minutes, then transfer to a wire rack and cool completely,
about 30 minutes.
4. Place the pudding mix and powdered dry milk in a large bowl.
Pour in the milk and whisk 1 minute. Add the chopped bananas
and continue whisking until somewhat thickened, about 1 more
minute. Pour into the prepared pie shell and refrigerate until set,
about 2 hours. Pie may be stored in the refrigerator, tightly covered,
up to 3 days.
5. Just before serving, spread the yogurt evenly over the pie,
forming a creamy topping.

Get some berries..whatever you like. I like a combination of strawberries raspberries and blueberries. Clean, sort and hull as needed. Place in large bowl, add a couple tablespoons of a good balsamic vinegar and a teasponn or two of splenda.
I know this sounds strange, but the balsamin vinegar just makes the berries POP!!! This is my favorite summertime treat and it's awesome with vanilla yogurt.
I love fruit plates. Berries, watermelon, pineapple, cantelope, grapes, etc.
I know that the non-berries are higher in sugar, but it is still better than other traditional desserts.
