These were so good. I think what I liked about them was the lack of green pepper, since green pepper throws the taste of baked beans off for me. The flavors were wonderful.
Lick-the-Bowl-Good Cream Cheese Frosting
I’m a big fan of simple is better. Since Gregg’s favorite cake is red velvet cake, I’ve tried many cream cheese frosting recipes seeking the best one. This recipe, with its four simple ingredients, is the best I’ve ever found. It’s light, creamy, and beyond delicious.
Whole Wheat Dark Chocolate Chip Cookies
I try to keep chocolate chip cookies in our cookie jar all the time. My kids love them. Molasses keeps them chewy and gives them a more brown sugar flavor than most recipes.
Marinated Meatballs
These are good with a toothpick at an hors d’oeuvres party, or added to spaghetti sauce as a wonderful topper for pasta. You can cut the meat in half with ground turkey.
Whole Wheat Pumpkin Cream Cheese Muffins
This is the perfect recipe to make for a breakfast or brunch. They are packed with flavor from all of the spices, and the cream cheese is a beautifully decadent addition.
Scrumptious Cookie Pizza
I love making this and taking it to events. It’s attractive, striking to the eye, and delicious. And, as far as desserts go, it’s moderately healthy compared to what desserts could be.
Whole Wheat Blueberry Muffins
I love blueberry muffins. I always have blueberries in the freezer for making smoothies, and all summer I keep fresh blueberries on hand in the refrigerator. About once a week, I make muffins for breakfast, and blueberry muffins are a family favorite.
Creamy Potato Soup
Potato soup is one of my favorite dishes. The way my mom makes it is meat-free and very, very simple, and the flavor combination of the cream and the celery is really what makes it taste so good to me. This soup is filling, hearty, and goes wonderfully with Crusty Whole Wheat Cheese Bread.
High Protein Breakfast Smoothie
We love smoothies. I use organic plain yogurt, so there is no added sugar there, and whey powder that doesn’t have any artificial sweeteners in it. It’s an amazing and healthy breakfast that is easily consumed “on the run,” and I have this for breakfast at least once a week, and often for a mid-morning snack.
Sweetheart Steak for Two
A “Sweetheart Steak” is a rib-eye steak specially cut to resemble a heart, with a membrane running down the middle of it that separates the two steaks. It is a tender, beautiful cut of meat, and just fun enough to be a perfect main course for a Valentine’s Day dinner.
