This is a revision of the Merry Gingerbread Cookies recipe from the Splenda website. I left the butter and egg portion of the recipe intact for flavour purposes but perhaps it could be altered further to reduce those calories.
This low fat, low sugar hot chocolate is a luxurious way to warm up on a chilly day without all the extra calories. It's easy to transport so you can have a cup wherever you go.
A great way to kick of your morning if you need to eat breakfast on the run.
On the go? In a rush? Need a pre or post workout snack? Blend a banana, peanut butter, and milk for a healthy breakfast or snack you can easily take with you anywhere!
Only 3.8 net carbs per muffin!!! (remember to minus the fiber to get an accurate net carbohydrate count)
These low carb banana flax bread muffins are versatile and delicious! You can omit the banana and just use banana extract to make them even more low carb! Substitute berries or apples instead of the bananas.
My first ever attempt at baking with a sourdough starter, these muffins rose perfectly, are low in fat and are a great spicy blend of sweet and sour!! Original recipe came from Breadchick at The Sour Dough (http://breadchick.com/?p=349).
I've been trying to stay away from white four (all-purpose) so I bought a bag of whole wheat flour. In search of a whole wheat recipe I came across this recipe http://www.recipezaar.com/recipe/Whole-Whe
at-Honey-Banana-Muffins-115432 and thought it would be perfect. I decided to take this recipe to the next level of health by replacing the oil with applesauce, it worked! These are fluffy and moist and just yummy. For fun I sprinkled some with oats and honey. I recommend sprinkling them with honey because it makes the tops kind of gooey and delicious, but only a drizzle or else it will be really doughy on top.
I used mini muffin tins and made about 65 muffins. But towards the end I just got impatient and filled up three regular sized muffin cups.
I think these are the perfect way to get in some complex carbs and fiber and the wheat germ gives it a great extra health kick!

Chocolate and peanut butter for breakfast? Yes, please! Make these special protein-packed pancakes for your next big brunch occasion.
A spin of the Traditional PBJ. Hold the jam please! Its a great snack or something rewarding and delicious for weekend breakfast.
These are so moist and chocolatey I can't believe they are so healthy. They are a very filling and a great low carb treat.
I buy pre-ground flax meal, but you can grind your own.
I grind my almonds in a blender by putting only a small handful in at a time and pulsing the blender. Don't run continuously or you'll have almond butter. You can also buy pre-ground almonds.
A healthier "candy" that kids can make themselves. The only caution is that they will want to eat too much!
1/4 cup Shredded coconut, Half cup pistachio, Half cup almonds, 1 tablespoon coconut oil, 12 dates, and a sprinkle of Craisins on top :)
One of my favorite drinks. The calories are not bad at all. Great to make one pitcher and enjoy with friends.
