Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Grease muffin cups or line with paper muffin liners.
Mix together flour, baking powder, baking soda and salt. In a separate bowl, beat together banana, sugar, egg and vanilla. Stir in the yogurt (I've used applesauce when out of plain yogurt as well). Stir banana mixture into flour until just combined. Scoop batter into prepared muffin cups.
Bake in preheated oven for 15 to 20 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into center of a muffin comes out clean. Let cool before serving.

This is another recipe that started out from the Eat Up Slim Down book. I had some broccoli from my garden and it tasted awesome. I left out the milk and flour base and just used the evaporated skimmed milk and it was delicious. I used to make broccoli cheese soup with cream and cheese, but this tastes so good I probably won't go back. My kids love it, too. It's great with a grilled cheese and tomato sandwich. Makes 8 - 1 cup servings.

I LOVE chicken & dumplings so when I found this I added my own spin to it and lowered the fat and calories. This is the best chicken and dumplings I've ever had which is amazing since I'm never satisfied with my cooking! You can have a full cup of this hearty comfort food for only 284 calories and 3.8 grams of fat! The sodium could be reduced if homemade biscuits are used instead of the canned biscuits, but if sodium isn't a problem this is a very fast and easy way to make chicken & dumplings!

I made Crock Pot Recipe this morning so it was all ready when I got home for dinner tonight and it is just too good to keep to myself! It felt like it was made by a real chef. Mmm. I served this with wheat pasta and broccoli and drizzled the sauce over that with the chicken on top. There was a lot of left over sauce, so I'm not sure how to account for it nutritionally, but most of the fat/calories weren't eaten with the chicken. I bet you could even take out/reduce the olive oil in the recipe, but it's a healthy amount, so Ieft it in. Any kind of chicken can be used, but I went with the low fat chicken breast. It's really yummy, so give it a try!

It can also be a marinade - 2 hours (or overnight) then BBQ.

These are a delicious treat or on-the-go breakfast.. If done in the dehydrator, they are like homemade granola bars.

The original recipe called for quick oats, but we like the chewyness of the regular ones and use those instead.

Any chopped nuts work well, but walnuts are easiest to find in Michigan.
*****
The original recipe calls for 1/2 tsp. salt, but my husband and mother are salt sensitive, so we leave it out.
*****
The original recipe does not call for cinnamon, but it's our favorite spice flavor, so we added it. My sister adds 1 tsp.; I add 2.

This is a mysterious recipe to me.

Farming in Greece is limiting. The staples for Greek farmers are barley, wheat, olives, & grapes. This is due to the rocky terrain & shallow top soil. These conditions are perfect for shallow or lateral rooting plants, but not tubers.

I am about to assume that the Greek merchants ship in their potatoes from neighboring countries. If I'm wrong...I am certain you will write me.

This recipe comes from a country inn in Mikrolivado.

Nancy's Ol' Fashioned, Easy, Simple Chicken Soup...Un-Chained Recipe Contest!
Very Good 4.1/5

This is (a) an improvement on Corner Bakery Cafe's Mom's Chicken Noodle Soup; (b) a large pot of vitamin-rich, naturally sweet, nutritious, chicken soup that (c) is very easy to make, (d) freezes well, (e) feeds about a dozen hungry people, and (f) I make throughout the year after having and making many different variations on a theme for many years

Although it can take a little time to get the chicken off the bones, it's SO worth it! Also, if you don't want to use a whole chicken or shredding it just isn't your thing, you can use chicken parts or whole breasts instead, cut off the big chunks, and dice or shred them. They'll take less cooking time, too.

There's nothing better for you, especially when ONLY chicken soup will do! It's not ambrosia (nectar of the gods), but it's as close as I can get! I appreciate your feedback and input. Enjoy! SparkPeople rocks my world! Nancy, a/k/a KEEPITMOVING
