Dessert -- Tropical Fruit Macaroons

2 cups flaked coconut
1 cup dried cherries, chopped
1 cup dried pineapple, chopped
3 egg whites
Two thirds cup sugar
1 tsp. cinnamon
One quarter tsp. ground ginger
One quarter cup Macadamia nuts, chopped

Combine sugar, cinnamon and ginger. Beat egg whites until stiff peaks form. Slowly add sugar mixture and continue beating. Add coconut, dried cherries, dried pineapple and nuts and mix well. Drop tablespoons of mixture on greased cookie sheet. Bake for 15 - 20 minutes at 325 degrees.

The Skinny: Not much you can do to change these ingredients even if you wanted to. The coconut has some fat as do the nuts but just eat one or two of the macaroons and you should be fine.
