French Recipes (Most Popular)
This is adapted from a Hungry Girl Recipe... I use light whole wheat bread instead of the hot dog buns the recipe calls for.
Traditional French Canadian desert. My Grandma used to make them out of the scraps when she made pies but I needed something to take to work for a pot luck so I made a batch from scratch and thought I'd see just how bad for me they were. Now that I know, I think they're actually worth the price. Yum.
Adapted from Patricia Wells' recipe in "At Home in Provence", this egglass, mostly whole grain version gets a delicate texture and flavour from ground almonds and almond extract, the zest of a lemon and a bevy of fresh wine-making grapes (and their seeds). It is rich thanks to a blend of table cream, olive oil and melted butter, but not overly sweet - perfect with a glass of sherry after a meal.
So light and flaky, with the unmistakeable flavour of cultured butter and a bit of buttermilk, you'll forget that there's whole wheat flour in each bite!
Adapted from Foods For The Soul, I used non-fat Greek yogurt, local berries, extra sugar-free (stevia sweetened) chocolate and LOT of extra cocoa for consistency. A little extra stevia helped sweeten the deal before the balls were coated in cocoa.
Creamy, cheesy, fairly healthy, 1/2 the fat and cholesterol of the full fat version!
So tasty, yet so low in calories and high in protein! My husband's favorite breakfast.
These luxurious little desserts are like gooey flourless chocolate pudding cakes. Perfect for Valentine's Day!
This is an adapted version of Martha Stewart's recipe using an entire kale plant from my garden
