alright - me and the food questions again
I love anything pumpkin too. But since I don't bake myself.....I don't get much of it. Everyone makes stuff with sugar! LOL
I can't do roasts. I don't know what it is, but yuck! But I am Pennsylvania Dutch so making a big pot of chicken corn soup or homemade potpie is very soothing on cold days. Neither of which is very WLS.
I also like casseroles and baked mac and cheese. I don't tend to make oven dinners too much in the summer so these things are always made mostly in fall and winter.
I do make alot of baked apples this time of year. My mothers best friend owns an Orchard so she stocks us up with apples! My kids just like them peeled, sprinkle a little cinnimon, and lightly cover with SF Pancake syrup, then bake until tender. It's so fast, cheap, and easy. And quite yummy.

When life hands you lemons, ask for tequila & salt and give me a call!
This month is definately out. We are moving. And so busy! But maybe a few of the recipies will be "Jodi" friendly. (Meaning few steps and few ingredients) LOL
I love to cook meals and appetizers but just can't get into the baking thing.

WLS Friendly apple crisp
Slice up a bunch of apples...I don't measure...probably about 6 or 8 of em for a large (9 x 11) baking dish. Toss with a combination of splenda, cinnamon, and lemon juice. Place in pan. Dot with butter if desired
In the meantime, use 4 or more packets of "lower sugar" maple and brown sugar oatmeal with either 1/2 stick of butter, or some butter and some oil to make a crumble topping (You can add some chopped nuts to this too, for extra crunch). Sprinkle on top of apples. (I sometimes add cinnamon to this, too)
Bake at a high temp (about 400ish****il topping is golden brown and apples are soft and bubbling. Serve w/ sf whipped cream, NSA ice cream, or just enjoy!

Instead of complaining that the rosebush has thorns, be happy that the thorn bush has roses.
