Bars made with applesauce and spices. Honestly, this isn’t a decision I would have made on my own. It turned out to be quite good, as with most of my recipes. We spiced it up with cinnamon, allspice, and brandy and finished it off with a splash of bourbon. It was the moistest cake I’ve… Continue reading Apple Flavored Spice Bars
Healthy Strawberry Muffin Recipe
You may recall that I posted some weeks ago about strawberry bread that I made with butter and mascarpone cheese. I enjoyed it very much. Here are some strawberry muffins for you. Unfortunately, they aren’t as delicious as strawberry bread. Despite this, eating more than a sliver at a time can lead to weight loss.… Continue reading Healthy Strawberry Muffin Recipe
Stuffed Turkey Burgers Recipe
Sarah chose the recipe for this week’s recipe: stuffed turkey burgers. I liked them. They weren’t my favorite, but they were good. I filled lean ground turkey with mozzarella cheese, roasted red peppers, and jalapenos in this recipe. They are stuffed by creating eight small patties, flattening them, placing your stuffing on top of one,… Continue reading Stuffed Turkey Burgers Recipe
Orange Brownie Buttons
Although they look like ordinary mini brownies, they are not, and they are bursting with vibrant flavors. Their secret is orange zest. These brownies are relatively basic. They’re made with butter, sugar, chocolate, flour, eggs, and vanilla extract. Adding orange zest gives the recipe an excellent brightness. I used almost a whole orange zest, so… Continue reading Orange Brownie Buttons

Well, these don’t look like much, but this is yet another winner from my girl. Jeridth chose these muffins for this week’s recipe.Is this a muffin or a cupcake? Because I didn’t frost them, I’m going with muffins. I believe you could easily pass these off as cupcakes if you made the lemony cream cheese… Continue reading Low Fat Carrot Cake Muffins Recipe

Authentic Italian Bruschetta Recipe
Since the 15th century, bruschetta has existed. Of course, it comes from central Italy. The word bruschetta derives from the Roman dialect brucare, which means “to roast over coals.” (Thanks to Wikipedia). Many people assume that bruschetta refers to the delicious topping on this Italian snack, but it refers to the grilled bread. I believe… Continue reading Authentic Italian Bruschetta Recipe
Cinnamon Swirl Bread Recipe
A quality recipe like this is hard to find. I knew what I was going to make when I saw that our friend made this. The recipe title pretty much speaks for itself. In the original recipe, walnuts are also called for, but I decided not to include them this time. Overall, I was pleased… Continue reading Cinnamon Swirl Bread Recipe
Healthy Cobb Salad
Salads aren’t my favorite food unless they are terrible for you. A perfect example: I like the Caesar salad at my local restaurant, as well as the BBQ steak salad. I used to eat cobb salad regularly at a restaurant called Chadsmiths, though. Over the weekend, I was pleased to try out this lightened-up version.… Continue reading Healthy Cobb Salad
