Hawaiian Pita Pizzas By: Lindsey

My husband cooked these tonight and I am telling you they were GOOD! I wish I could eat another one. But that would defeat the point of them being healthy, right? Ha. He did say that he didn't use as much sauce that the recipe called for.


Ingredients

  • 2 pieces whole-wheat pita bread
  • 2 tablespoons olive oil, divided
  • 2 cups low-sugar pizza or pasta sauce, divided
  • 1 tomato, sliced thinly
  • 8 slices deli ham, cut into fourths
  • 1 (6 ounce) can pineapple chunks, drained
  • 1/4 cup low-fat shredded mozzarella cheese

Preparation


Set oven to broil. Brush pita bread with olive oil, put on a baking sheet and broil four inches from the heat for two minutes. Remove from oven. Spread a cup of pizza sauce over each pita and top with equal amounts of tomato, ham and pineapple. Sprinkle with cheese. Return to oven and broil for three more minutes or until cheese is melted.

Sweet Mama Rose's Oatmeal Apple Raisin Muffins By: Lindsey

My husband's grandmother, Mama Rose, is so sweet!! Derek says I don't make any of her stuff....and I will tell you why. It is all made from SCRATCH!! Lasagna, brunswick stew, muffins, cakes, etc. Whew!! It is good food, don't get me wrong. But, my goodness...who has time for recipes all from scratch?? So, I am going to try my hardest to start making some of them. This morning I made her Oatmeal Apple Raisin Muffins. Derek loves them and has mentioned to me before about making them. Keep in mind that Mama Rose is diabetic. Which means, that lots of things she makes is healthier for us. Ha! These muffins are a tasty, healthy treat for you and your kiddos. I love muffins! So, it is fun eating them when I know they have ONLY 1/3 cup sugar and apples and raisins in them. Parker, my son, also loved them. I didn't add any butter to the top of his and he ate them like crazy. 1 egg 3/4 cup milk 1 cup raisins 1 apple, peeled and chopped 1/2 cup oil(I used vegetable oil) ...

Sugar's Sugar Cookies by Ashley

I have never made sugar cookies from scratch before. I have eaten a ton, but never made any. I got this recipe from Taste and See blog. My favorite part is that they are simple to make and they make a ton. I made some for a party we are going to and I had plenty to share with the boys. Recipe for the best "melt-in-your-mouth" sugar cookies in the world: Ingredients : 2 sticks butter, softened 2 cups sugar 2 eggs 3 1/2 cups all-purpose flour 3 teaspoons baking powder 1 teaspoon salt 1 teaspoon vanilla extract Directions : With an electric mixer, cream sugar and butter until fluffy. Add eggs one at a time and beat well. Mix dry ingredients together in a bowl and add to the butter mixture just until combined. Add vanilla. Chill in the refrigerator for about 30 minutes or so. Drop by teaspoonfuls onto a greased cookie sheet. Bake at 350-degrees for 6-8 minutes. Yield: about 6 dozen small cookies
