Last weekend I did end up making the life changing loaf of bread. I was impressed! Lots of crunch and flavors and really good with almond butter and sliced banana. It's definitely great for part of a lunch. Try it!
There were three recipes I noticed this week that I was intrigued by:
- Peanut Butter Filled Pretzel Bites. I really really like soft pretzels and soft pretzel bites. I've had hard pretzels filled with peanut butter, but not soft. I definitely want to make something like these at some point. Maybe I can make them semi-healthy!
- Blueberry Muffin Bread Pudding Bake. While it hasn't shown on the blog (yet) because most of the recipes here are for dinner, I LOVE blueberries. A ridiculous but true fact is that Mark and I picked and ate 25 pounds of blueberries within a couple of weeks last summer. Also, we may or may not have joined Sam's Club almost exclusively for a better deal on frozen blueberries. So, this bread pudding bake looks good to me! I'll have to come up with an excuse to make it. Also, I can't wait for berry season!
- Crispy Quinoa Granola. I never thought of using uncooked quinoa in this way. Pretty cool! Just might have to experiment with this idea soon...
My mom and I are in charge of desserts for my cousin's wedding in June, so this weekend I'll be doing some dessert recipe testing! Though those desserts will not be healthy, I'll be sure to share the recipes that we decide on. Any dinner recipe requests?
