Anyone Have a "Healthy" Lemon Bar Recipe?

Yeah, so I tried a lemon bar today, and I realized that I'm going to need to find a lower cal (preferably not all chemical) recipe so that I can just make it myself and not only have a sliver when I do crave it because everything at my work is soo ridiculous in points.
Other than that, the day was alright .. sorta meh. I was pretty queasy, but not awful until right around bedtime.. on that note, I ended up with my head hanging over the toilet bowl (I didnt end up being sick though) and I still didn't succumb and have like toast or something to try to settle my stomach. I figured if I was actually getting stomach flu or something, I'd find out soon enough and that for the moment id just try to wait it out and see how I went.. and this morning I feel a bit icky but certainly not stomach flu-ey, so yay! :)

  1. I'm trying to catch up on all my blog reading from when I was gone, sorry I've been MIA.

    I LOVE lemon bars, but I've never made them myself. Surely it can't be so difficult to find a healthy recipe? I mean, they're made out of LEMONS (essentially), right? If you do find one, please share it.

    Now I want a rueben from Schlotsky's. Thanks a lot. Stupid woman stuff has got me craving nothing but salt and cookie dough!

    Mmmm...cookie dough...
