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
Traditional Banana Bundt Cake
Classic Banana Bundt Cake is this week’s recipe. I highly recommend it. This cake was delicious. Although it’s not a spectacular cake, it is a solid, easy-to-make cake, something everyone should have in their repertoire. Bringing this dessert to a party or giving it as a gift or a welcome to the neighborhood gesture is… Continue reading Traditional Banana Bundt Cake
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
Homemade Cheese Straws
It’s fresh-baked cheddar crackers in a straw shape, which is fine with me. The crackers are crisp, cheesy, and buttery. Delicious in every way. I did not have a party to bring these to, but they would make a great party appetizer. I made these mainly because I saw them on a popular blog and… Continue reading Homemade Cheese Straws
Simple & Pure Vanilla Ice Cream Recipe
Vanilla Ice Cream. Just the way it should be. Delightful. It was topped with colored sprinkles, my favorite ice cream topping. Hot fudge was on my agenda, but I was too lazy to make it. As I was taking this picture, my first thought was to add some sprinkles to the ice cream, which made… Continue reading Simple & Pure Vanilla Ice Cream Recipe
Low Fat Baked Onion Rings Recipe
Our family loves these oven-baked onion rings, and we’ve been making them for a long time. Sweet Vidalia onions are coated in flour, then buttermilk, and then crushed potato chips. To spice things up a bit, I add dried herbs to my friend’s recipe along with cayenne pepper. My recommendation is to cut your rings… Continue reading Low Fat Baked Onion Rings Recipe
Homemade Peanut Butter Recipe
It’s straightforward to make your own peanut butter, and everyone should try it. I bought some honey-roasted peanuts soon after seeing this recipe on another blog a while back. Sadly, I didn’t make it. Then, this past weekend, as I was preparing the Udon Noodles with a lime-peanut sauce, I realized that I didn’t have… Continue reading Homemade Peanut Butter Recipe
Peanut Sauce Udon Dinner Recipe
One of my cookbook’s best recipes. The dish starts with whole wheat noodles and then adds tons of delicious green vegetables, followed by a tasty peanut sauce. It comprises creamy peanut butter (I made my own – more on that in another post), soy sauce, vinegar, lime juice, scallion, ginger, brown sugar, and red pepper… Continue reading Peanut Sauce Udon Dinner Recipe
