Low-Fat Apple Spice Muffins
What I like the most about these muffins is that the spices make the muffin what it is. The raw cane sugar and whole wheat pastry flour are the best to use because they are the least processed ingredients available and retain more of their natural goodness. The chunky apple bits give me more for my bite and add another level of sweetness to the muffin. These make a great breakfast or brunch item, or you can have one with a cup of coffee and unwind! Enjoy!
Turkey Sliders
These little turkey slider sandwiches, made with deli turkey, come together in minutes and are perfect for parties, lunches, dinner, and game day snacks. We particularly enjoy using black pepper turkey for these sliders.
Steak and Kidney Pie
This hearty steak and kidney pie is a meal in itself! Perfectly seasoned beef and potatoes simmer in a rich gravy beneath a flaky crust for a comforting, hearty old-fashioned pie. I like to use milder flavored lamb kidneys instead of beef.
