This recipe was from a Pillsbury book and at the top of it said Potluck ideas. This bar is a great idea to bring to a pot luck dinner. Everybody will love them, trust me. These are so good and will definitely kill your sweet tooth craving. I've also tried a rice crispy bar with this dulce de leche filling in the middle of them and those were really good too. The recipe says to drizzle some caramel topping on the top too, but they honestly don't need any of this. They're too sweet without ... continue reading...
Julia Child’s Boeuf Bourguignon
Tonight, I made my first recipe from Julia Child's book The Art of French Cooking: Boeuf Bourguignon. This actually turned out better than the molten lava cakes I had made tonight. The cakes never oozed chocolate out of the middle when I cut into them. Kind of disappointing.I decided that this was the first recipe I'd make from this cook book because we already had some beef stew meat in our freezer. I had almost all the ingredients besides the beef stock and onions. The wine was less than ... continue reading...
Favorite Oatmeal-Raisin Cookies
---------------------------------------------------------Another recipe from the Weight Watcher Comfort Classics cook book. These little cookies are addicting. I think it is impossible to eat just one of them a day. I tried one right when they came out of the oven and it was so chewy and gooey. Only 2 points per cookie. When baking, I like using the different sized scoops you can get at a kitchen supply store. I have one small one, which is about a tablespoon in size for cookies. I ... continue reading...

Biggest Loser BBQ Bacon Meatloaf
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...

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...
