I finally have a some new recipes posted this week! I spent most of the day today getting some stuff cooked and put in the freezer, which is a good thing because I totally depleted my stock. I also made a double batch of Best Ever Blondies (this time with chocolate chips) which ...
The streusel topping makes these muffins! I use 1 cup of regular flour and 3/4 cup of wheat flour to up the fiber. I also substitute applesauce for the oil. Ingredients For Streusel: 1/3 cup packed brown sugar 3 tablespoons all-purpose flour2 teaspoons ground cinnamon ...
This is just the basic meatball recipe I use when making spaghetti, meatball sandwiches, Catalina Meatballs, etc. I bake them and use ground round so they are pretty low fat. Ingredients 1 pound lean ground beef (93/7) 1/2 cups dry bread crumbs 1/4 cup skim milk 1 t onion powder 1 ...

You can make this same recipe with 1 pound cooked ground beef. I use Mission brand Carb Balance tortillas because they taste fantastic - just like a regular flour tortilla - but they are low fat and high in fiber (7 grams of fiber in each one!). Ingredients 8 oz. cooked, shredded ...

These are spectacular! If you have ever eaten one of Panera Bread's baked egg souffles, this recipe will remind you of them. To try to make them a bit lower in fat, I use fat free cream cheese, skim milk, and I use 2% milk cheddar instead of the swiss. I think I might try adding ...
Well, I'm beginning to think I'm not going to have a "normal" week ever again. Ah, what's normal anyway? Sounds boring. Spring break ended up being a bummer for me. I was sick the whole time, and I am still trying to recouperate. I sure wish I could have a spring break do-over. ...
This is a modified version of a Kraft recipe. My friend Sandi recently made an orange version for a teacher luncheon at school. You can substitute any flavor of jello to flavor the dessert. I'm partial to raspberry. I leave out the graham cracker crumbs comepletely, and I put it ...
Chewey, rich and flavorful, these blondies are simply heaven on a plate. I use white chocolate chips when I make mine, but you could easily substitute butterscotch or chocolate, and if you like nuts, feel free to add them in. You won't be able to resist these tasty treats! Serve ...

Well, our spring break starts today, and wouldn't you know it - I'm sick. :( I've been in bed for two days with a nasty cold. So, I have accomplished nothing this weekend. I didn't get my menu planned, and I didn't get my grocery shopping done. I'm hoping that I will feel well enough ...
This is my go-to chicken noodle soup recipe. It's creamy, tasty, and as the title says, very comforting. The best thing is, it's low in calories and sodium. It makes 15 cups of soup. Ingredients 6 cups water 1 quart Imagine Organic Chicken Broth, Low Sodium 1 carrot, finely ...
This soup is mildly spicy, very flavorful, and super healthy. It’s one of my favorite lunch soups. I make a batch and eat it all week for lunch. If you want to make it heartier, add in some diced cooked chicken. Top it with some shredded cheese, sour cream, and cilantro for an extra ...
Well, I'm almost embarrassed to publish my "menu" for this week. We will be gone every night this week, so there won't be much cooking going on. I'm going to make a couple of batches of soups that we can bring with us to our various evening events and quickly heat up so we don't ...
We had an amazing weekend weatherwise. It seems like it has been cold, cloudy, dreary and icy forever. The previous two weeks we had four snow days, and we have had a total of eight snow days so far this year. For southwest Missouri, this is kind of a big deal. We don't usually ...
