Carob Zucchini Cake


This is another found recipe that looks to be far more healthy than the average dessert cake!

This is definitely one I want to try in the near future!

Better For My HEART Cake???


I found this interesting recipe clipping tucked between the pages of an old cookbook.
The picture itself was rather off-putting to me ...
Cakes, with their sugar, butter, processed flours ... are so way off limits for me and my HEART!

Then I started reading the ingredients for this cake.
Whole wheat flour ... wheat bran cereal ... very little sugar ...

My sweet tooth may have the final say on this one ...
And maybe my heart will thank me???

If I do try this recipe, I will let you know if it really is as good as it sounds!
Without the maraschino cherries, though. I hate those things. I have a jar of regular canned cherries somewhere, don't I????

In the meantime, I'm going to go out on a limb today ... and while this post doesn't have a heart photo/art/poem/etc ... it is still heart conscious - and I am therefore going to link up with Guest Heart Thursday!!! To see hearts from around the world, visit "Random Hearts" - and share YOUR heart on Guest Heart Thursday!!!

Louisiana Yam Corn Bread


I found this recipe in a mostly-ruined hand-written cookbook. I saved as many pages as I could.

Chicken and Rice (Casserole)


This is a simple recipe that sounds really good!
I would think it could be easily modified as well -

For instance ...
Instead of onions, use fresh (or canned) asparagus. Then substitute a can of cream of asparagus soup for the cream of celery ... mmmmm

OR add a can of your fave veggies before pouring on the soup mix.

OR ... (okay I'll stop now - I'm getting hungry!!!)

Beef Stew Spices


This isn't exactly a recipe ... but several years ago I made a stew that turned out so well that Mom asked if I would write down the spices I used.

So I did.
