This is not my original recipe. I found it on food.com submitted by Laurie150. This fudge comes out creamy, sets well and is addictive.
Milk and Honey. This walnut bread is filling, fragrant and has a fine crumb. This is not a low calorie item but a little bit goes a long way.
A dense, hearty, sweet loaf filled with raisins and candied fruit and spiced with the warm flavours of the Caribbean, this is definitely the cake to make if you want to escape from the cold, blustery weather!
A simple filling of over ripe bananas, toasted sesame seeds and muscovado sugar is just the right balance of richness for the wafer thin, crisp spring roll wraps. Baking instead of frying them keeps the whole recipe 99% fat free, and they're great for advance party planning too - make a huge batch and freeze whatever you don't need that moment!
These canned beauties are the precursor to some killer Harvard Beets - simply drain and thicken the brine with cornstarch, heat and serve. They're not super sweet, but of course that depends on the type of beets you're using.
Delicious and super fast seafood dish. Tastes like a million dollars for small calories!
You would never guess this recipe is lightened just by tasting. Perfect for company or a special occasion, your guests will be impressed and beg for the recipe. Use your favorite seafood for the haddock, can be shrinp, scallops or almost anything.
Serve with roasted asparagus and a lovely green salad dressed with a light vinaigrette.
I have no idea what to call these things but they are a staple in our house for baking. You can make them for any occasion and add seasonal sprinkles on top. They are basically peanut butter cookies in miniature cupcake cups with a miniature Reese's in the middle.
Why miss the traditiional cranberry sauce when you can easliy make your own sugar-free version. Good for you and everyone else.

Adapted from Anna Olson, these are very much the Christmas cookie - studded throughout with gorgeously bright and clear candied cherries. You can't use maraschinos in syrup for this - look for the dry-packed glace kind. Store in an airtight container for up to 2 weeks or freeze up to 3 months.
From an Oliver & Bonacini offering that they have at their establishments. No butter, oil, or cream is used in their recipe, but the flavour is all there! Its called "Wild & Tame" because they utilize several different types of wild and "regular" mushrooms in the dish. If you can't get mushroom stock cubes, use veggie ones or make your own.
A hearty, simple and fruity pasta and scallop curry made lighter with evaporated milk and chicken broth in place of the usual heavy cream. Adapted from M&M Meat Shops' 2009 calendar.
Heavily adapted from Meg Kat's recipe (http://imperrfections.blogspot.com/2008/1
1/so-ive-been-wanting-to-make-cinnamon
.html) to make a loaf instead of rolls. I used my mincemeat as a filling for a delicious Christmas treat!
When I saw this recipe for zucchini cupcakes at Blake Bakes (http://www.blakebakes.com/2008/09/donna-b
akeschocolate-chip-zucchini-cupcakes/) I knew I would have to make it! A quick consultation with The Other Half proved it. But could it be done with carrots? I decided to find out and I began to tinker around. These aren't too sweet, but they're light in texture and you still definitely know that it's dessert!
