Baking

I made three recipes out of the Hungry Girl cookbooks/recipe cards. Dreamy Chocolate Peanut Butter Fudge, Big Fat Blueberry Muffins, and Mug ‘o Pumpkin Crème. For supper I made a Mac and Cheese. It was healthy. Basically skim milk, cheddar cheese, little flour for the sauce and bread crumbs on top baked in the oven. I added some vegetables though to make it more filling.

So on to the recipes.

Dreamy Chocolate Peanut Butter Fudge - I made it before. It's yummy! I added a little less pumpkin because I found when I made it before, it tasted to pumpkiny. But it may be not getting the exact ingredients here. It's in the first HG book and recipe cards. Try it! It is so good! Beyond good!

Big Fat Blueberry Muffins - I didn't have apple sauce, so I added just a bit of pumpkin so it wouldn't be too dry. Anyway, they turned out good. I think I would perfer them with apple sauce, but I liked them and will make them again. Not too sweet. And loads of blueberries and a good size too.

Mug ‘o Pumpkin Crème - Omg. It's like drinking pumpkin pie. And I love my pumpkin pie. PIE!! It's great for a cold night. Easy to make and something different when you don't want tea or hot chocolate.

Hungry Girl has the best recipes. They are all about flavor. Everything tastes great. I'm a vegetarian and even the recipes with meat in them, I can change them for things I like. Even when I sneak things to the bf or my family members, they like them. Healthy and tastes great. It feels like you are cheating when you're not. She does use Splenda instead of sugar. I don't use Splenda for two reasons: it's kind of expensive and I'm a little leery on it. But I just use real sugar and change points or calories. If you want to eat healthy, but don't want to sacrifice taste, definitely get the Hungry Girl Cookbooks and recipe cards.

My next post will talk about my lack of sleep. I will get to it tomorrow hopefully.

Till then :)
