I make these and freeze them to use for quick breakfasts on school days. Ingredients: 12 eggs 1/2 pound Honeysuckle White Turkey Breakfast Sausage 16 Mission Carb Balance Flour Tortillas (small size) Directions: Brown the sausage over medium heat in a nonstick skillet. Drain. ...
One of my favorite things about summertime is peach season. I love going to the local orchard and getting a box of peaches. My sweet husband knows how much I hate peach fuzz (it makes my teeth tingle!), and always peels them for me. I love to chow down on a bowl of freshly cut peaches, ...
One the most popular restaurants in our town is Lambert's Cafe. They are famous for their "throwed rolls". Yes, this is a restaurant where they actually throw the rolls at you! There is always a huge line to get into the restaurant, and they feed you huge portions of food. I saw ...
This is a very easy way to make a brisket, and it is perfect for summer cooking when you don't want to turn on the oven. :) The burgundy sauce is wonderful, so be sure to put some on top of your beef. Ingredients: 1 large brisket, visible fat trimmed (mine was 3 lbs) 1 large ...
The boys loved these! Ingredients: 8 oz cooked shredded chicken breast 1 cup Ragu Light Basil and Tomato Pasta Sauce 8 egg roll wrappers 1 cup baby spinach leaves 2 oz shredded part skim mozzarella cheese 1/4 cup parmesan cheese Directions: Mix the shredded chicken and ...
It's funny how the shape of food can make it appetizing or not. If you ask if I want meat "loaf" for dinner, I will almost always tell you no. But if you ask if I want meat "balls", that changes everything. And how silly is that? They both basically have the same ingredients. :) ...
Well, our holiday weekend didn't turn out quite as planned. We picked up Corey from Scholars Academy on Saturday, and decided to go on to my mom's house to swim for a while and watch the fireworks that night (it seems not many towns around here are actually doing fireworks on the ...
Last Thursday I hosted 11 teachers for my first summer Mark Twain Award Book Club luncheon. Each summer I invite my 3rd and 4th grade teachers to read all 12 of the nominated books for the coming year, and we get together twice over the summer to discuss the books. My theme for ...

I've been enjoying different twists on BLTs this summer. I had some extra French bread and some extra chipotle chiles I needed to use up, so this was the perfect way to use those extra ingredients. My boys really liked these mildly spicy sandwiches. Ingredients: 10 slices French ...
The 4th of July holiday makes us think of family, outdoor activities, and picnics. My family often heads over to my mom's house to hang out for the day, go swimming in her pool, watch the local fireworks display at night, and eat lots of food. Here are some of my favorite recipes ...
This is a great spread to prepare when you don't have a lot of time, but you need to serve an appetizer. Serve it on crackers or cocktail bread. Ingredients: 8 oz. crumbled reduced fat feta cheese 8 oz. fat free cream cheese 1 green onion, finely chopped 2 T dried parsley ...
Sinfully sweet and gooey, these bars will have your family begging for more. The gooey peanut butter topping makes these fabulous. If white chocolate is not your thing, then go for regular chocolate. I promise you'll still love them. Ingredients: 1 box Yellow Cake Mix 1 large ...
I love finding new uses for won ton wrappers. These personal-sized lasagnas were just the right thing for my "Mini Munchies" themed book club luncheon. I assembled them the night before and just covered the pan and put it in the refrigerator until it was time to cook them. Ingredients: 8 ...

This is a creamy, rich dessert that is perfect for serving in mini dishes. The next time I make it, I'm going to layer it differently. I will put half of the peanut butter mixture on the bottom, then put the crunchy layer, and top it with the rest of the peanut butter layer. Serve ...
