A moist spicy cake...a good way to use some of those extra green tomatoes before frost hits. Sprinkle the finished cake with confectioners' sugar or a nice dollop of vanilla fat free yogurt. This can be made with or without the nuts, either way its very yummy.
Here's a great low-fat way to kick-start your morning or get that much needed afternoon boost.

This is the yummiest way to have Thanksgiving without the holiday...Very filling and delicious with lots of the flavors of home.
A great meal to freeze in an individual serving and take to lunch with you. Lower in sodium than a frozen dinner.
This is a tweaked recipe shared by a Spark friend. It is also my first Spark Recipe, so go easy on me. The nutritional info doesn't match exactly to what I have, but it's pretty close. These muffins are fantastic and I recommend you have plans to freeze or share them so you don't eat them all. Don't be afraid of the whole wheat flour. Due to the bananas these come out moist and delicious, not dry and compact.
This recipe makes about 24 mini muffins or 12 large ones. (It usually seems to make a little more, maybe 28 small ones or 13 large, etc.)

I got this recipe off of the Betty Crocker site and it is delicious.
Enjoy!
