Topic: CAKE POPS! I made them VERY low sugar!
x-posted RNY forum:

I had my first cake pop the other day. It was heaven. The hour of vomiting after, was hell.
So I decided - damn it! I want cake just once in a while - and I dont want to get sick. I just want a bite - A BITE! 
Thus, I spent the day today and figured out a way to make cake pops that are tasty and a mere 6-8gr sugar each! 
I blogged it - so you can see the steps here:

Topic: Cheesy Bacon Wrapped Chicken (Alice Springs Chicken)
Bacon...everything can be made better with an application of bacon. Well except chocolate cake of course. Here is my version of a type of Alice Spring Chicken.



Cheesy Bacon Wrapped Chicken

1 1/2 pounds chicken strips (approx 8-3oz strips)
1 Tablespoon Ranch dressing mix
8 slices turkey bacon
7 oz cheese, sliced (I used Asiago cheese)

Line baking pan with foil and spray with non-stick cooking spray.

Sprinkle ranch dressing on both sides of chicken strips. Wrap bacon, spiral method, around chicken strip and place on prepared baking sheet. Bake at 350 degrees for 20-25 minutes.

Remove from oven and turn temperature to broil. Top each chicken/bacon strip with approx 3/4 oz of cheese. Return to oven for 1 minute until cheese is melted. Serve immediately.

Serving size: 1 strip

Topic: RE: Recipe Website
Hi Lisa... So glad you like the site.

I don't include nutrition info because it is something that varies so widely.  Not everyone uses the same brand of ingredients or have the same portion sizes.

You can always use nutritiondata.self.com to find the info for your specific brand.

I hope you continue to visit my site and please let me know if you try any of the recipes and how they turn out for you :)
