This recipe I found surfing the Weight Watcher boards Recipe Review forums. It is from the Biggest Loser cook book. Another recipe I've tried from that book that was really really good was the Baked Ziti. That recipe is also on the menu for this week. It makes a lot for two people so we will have a lot of left overs. I didn't use any turkey bacon at all because I tried it once and didn't really care for it at all. Turkey bacon is good, but it isn't Bacon. The recipe ended up being a little bit ... continue reading...
Sherried Sardine Toast
First, I burned the toast. I can see why Rachel Ray always says on her show that she is notorious for doing that. Then, I made the sardine mixture. After the sardine mixture you mash up the avocados with some salt and a little bit of lemon juice. And this is the final yummy result (Without the burned toast). Alton Brown, you are genius! I will definitely be making this for lunch again, even Ben liked it. I also hope that he has more healthy recipes like this on his show. ... continue reading...
Pecan Sticky Buns
--------------------------------------------------------- I shouldn't have made these pecan sticky buns tonight, but I had wanted to get rid of some dough that was leftover. This recipe I found on myrecipes.com and it is from the magazine Real Simple. These sticky buns were REAL SIMPLE to make. Nothing much else to say about the sticky buns. Look forward to more posts this weekend and new recipes this next week. I'm looking forward to a new meatloaf recipe from the Biggest Looser cook ... continue reading...

Chicken Cheese Hotdish
------------------------------------------------ This was my favorite dish growing up as a kid, that I always loved to eat. My Dad would make it the best. I have this recipe memorized because once you make it, it is so easy to remember. If you wish to make this recipe healthier you can use brown rice instead of white rice. 98% reduced fat cream of chicken soup, low fat milk, and reduced fat cheddar cheese. I haven't been eating well lately... Lately it's mostly been crap. This weekend I ... continue reading...
Trader Joe’s Mandarin Orange Chicken
I first read about Trader Joe's on the Weight Watcher boards. I post there and have found many great recipes on that site. People on that board kept on mentioning all their favorite food that they buy at Trader Joe's and so I googled the store and the closest one by us was is in Maple Grove, MN. I HAD to go there and see what that place was like. The store was almost 300 miles away. :( We travel a lot to Minneapolis because of relatives living there and my mom and I love to go shopping. The ... continue reading...
Canned Biscuit Dough Donuts
------------------------------------------------- Can you guess who's recipe this is? She likes to fry everything, and likes butter. You guessed it, it's Paula Dean! I've eaten 3 of these things so far and I know I must stop, but I can't because they're so good! I didn't have any large biscuits, just small ones. So, no little donut holes were made. I sprinkled them with cinnamon and sugar. A perfect little treat after having fish and chips. We normally don't fry food that ... continue reading...
Fry Fest
Tonight, we had fish and chips and after that I made canned biscuit donuts with cinnamon and sugar. Probably not the most healthiest thing to eat, but my friend Ben over at guygoesgreen.com caught some walleye at Lake of the Woods this weekend and was kind enough to let Ben and I have some. Thanks Ben!!! I love walleye! I hope to catch one this summer if I can, if not a walleye than a Northern. For the Fish I used Alton Brown's recipe for Chips and Fish, but halved it since we didn't have quite ... continue reading...
