Been craving ice cream but not the cost or calories? I was, but didn't have an ice cream maker. I was fortunate to find a recipe online for vanilla, and adapted it to suit my craving for fruit ice cream. You may substitute any fruit you really like; I'm going to try peach next.

Delicous and quick!

Make these potatoes for a quick and easy side dish perfect with any meal!

I found this recipe someplace online over a year ago and tweaked it to taste. VERY EASY, very juicy and goes great with green beans and applesauce.
I "eye-ball" measure when I cook this sort of thing, so the measurements given for the marinade ingredients should be to your taste (but DON'T use less Hoison than listed- this is the main taste of the dish!)
This has become the recipe everyone who comes over for dinner wants me to make....and it is SO EASY!
(BTW-you can find Hoison sauce in the asian area of your grocery store-it will be by the soy sauce, teriyaki and other asian sauces and seasonings)

Don't let their looks scare you; They're great for those who love the onions and the "cruch" more than the greasy batter in traditional onion rings. Try them with some reduced calorie ketchup and you'll be in heaven.

Low Fat + Low Salt + Low Calorie = Guiltless

This is a super yummy, super easy recipe that is sure to satisfy your sweet tooth. They are very rich, so you only need 1 or 2 to satisfy that craving. After you've made this flavor - its easy to find other flavors - just mix and match the flavor cookies and chocolate (ex: PB cookies and dark chocolate, etc) - just be sure to recalculate your calories. Can be made with Neufchatel cheese too. Calories are usually a little lower, because I don't usually use all of the chocolate, but I calculated with the whole bag. Calculate your nutritionals based on how many balls you make. I usually make about 100. Great for parties - especially at Halloween - and great to make for gifts.
