Sweet Potato Buttermilk Pancakes

Sweet Potato Buttermilk Pancakes
Thanks for all your kind comments to yesterday’s post – you guys are the best and have some great ideas.  I agree with a fresh mouthwashed mouth I’ll have less temptation to mess it up – and have deemed the bedroom a beverage and food free zone, except for water.  šŸ˜€ I am really starting to like sweet potatoes, and while I am still on...

Sweet Potato Hash and Weekly WI

Sweet Potato Hash and Weekly WI
When Tony and I went out to eat the other night I got sweet potato fries.  I didn’t eat them all and was going to just leave them on the plate until Tony said “can’t you make a sweet potato hash with those?” Genius.  This breakfast was so good!  Slightly sweet, savory . . . yum! Sweet Potato Hash (serves 1 for 8 WW points...

Breakfast Calzone and Pasta Fagioli

Breakfast Calzone and Pasta Fagioli
I love sleep.  So after sleeping in until 10:00 and 10:30 respectively over the weekend, let’s just say the only thing that made me get out of bed at a decent hour was that I wanted to make a breakfast calzone for breakfast. I had leftover pizza dough from a while back – I almost like the dough better the longer it sits in the fridge. ...

Banana and Granola Pancakes

Banana and Granola Pancakes
I think these are my new favorite pancakes.  They are light, fluffy, slightly sweet, crunchy.  Thanks Jenn for the idea of these!  And if I ever find myself in Seattle – we are definitely getting together! šŸ˜€ I kinda just made these up with what I had on hand.  I had buttermilk, so I decided to make banana, granola buttermilk pancakes.  Each pancake is 3...

Crunchy Sesame Seed and Dried Cherry Granola

Crunchy Sesame Seed and Dried Cherry Granola
Hi guys!  Well, with storms the last couple days, I have been off the computer – we need to unplug it when the weather gets bad, just in case.  I am finally logging on this morning with bright blue skies and warm weather – love it! One of my bosses eats granola just about every day.  We have a busy work week coming up, so...

WI Saturday and Crab Rangoon Breakfast Wontons

WI Saturday and Crab Rangoon Breakfast Wontons
Thanks for all your well wishes to Joe’s big news!  He really appreciates it, and so do I. šŸ˜€  I went into my WI today with positive thoughts like I normally do, and was actually thinking I’d lost another 1.5 this week.  I actually “feel” smaller if that makes any sense.  So I was a tiny bit bummed with the scale today: But I have...

Easiest Pancakes

Easiest Pancakes
It seems to never fail that after a weekend of crappy weather, the first day of the work week is actually nice.  Although it was on the cool side, I’ll take sunshine over warmer temperatures any day of the week. Over the weekend I made the easiest pancakes.  I tweaked a recipe, so as I was making it I wasn’t sure of the points.  The...

4 Point Apple Muffins That Don’t Taste Like Ass

4 Point Apple Muffins That Don’t Taste Like Ass
Where the hell are my manners?!Ā  Thank you for all your sweet comments on my new hair cut – so far I’ve been able to style it – so instead of taking 2 minutes to get ready for work, I am now up to a whole five minutes, including make-up. šŸ˜€ There is a reason I don’t bake very often.Ā  Simply put, I am not...

Potato Crusted Goat Cheese Quiche and Clean Eating’s Pulled Pork (kinda!)

Potato Crusted Goat Cheese Quiche and Clean Eating’s Pulled Pork (kinda!)
I was reading Nicole’s blog the other day and she made a potato crusted quiche.  What?!  You know I am the queen of crustless quiche.  Without a crust I can add more cheese. šŸ˜€  Her question of the day was what is your favorite quiche.  Hands down mine is spinach and goat cheese.  The biggest problem with ordering quiche in a restaurant?  The damn onions!...
