Bobbie, I just read the recipe you posted! Thank you...sounds great and I will try it tomorrow! I love to cook and am always trying new things. One I haven't tried...9X13 pan sprayed with cooking spray. (Pam) Distribute
1 box dry cake mix in baking dish
1 pkg. frozen fruit, cherries, peaches, whatever, that are mixed with splenda (1 cup)
Put fruit over cake mix and pour 16 oz of diet Sprite over it.
Cover with foil and bake at 350 degrees for 25 minutes, uncover and bake for 20 minutes.
I ate some made with chocolate cake mix and bing cherries. It was good!
I haven't figured the calorie count yet.
My friend who made it uses peaches and adds cinnamon to the Splenda to toss the peaches in.
You all have such beautiful homes and gardens. I love to garden. My tulips were so nice this year, but they are gone now. My bluebonnets and Indain Paintbrush were also nice, but they are about gone. I have roses blooming. We have had so much rain that everything is doing good, I dread for the summer to come and bake everything. My tomato plants are blooming, my neightbor has some tomatoes on his. My squash is blooming (zuchinni and yellow). That is all I have planted this year, We are gone so much of the time in the summer that things get neglected here at home. I put out a couple of things at the lake. But I have to put out things that deer don't like or they eat it! Last year I had ornamental sweet potatoes covering a hugh space at the end of the cabin and one week end we drove up to a bunch of stubble! The deer needed salad!
I am sorry that I have not been around much lately. We have been going to the lake and back about every 4 days. And I just have not been on the computer. I have been writing down what I eat and have lost 4 pounds in the past 2 1/2 weeks. I finally got off some meds. that were keeping me from losing.
I have been getting plenty of exercise, walking and working at the lake. And walking and treadmill here at home, plus yard work.
I have found some tortillas that are good...LaTortilla Factory brand. They come in whole wheat low-carb/low fat. 8 grams dietary fiber,
50 calorie, 2 grams fat. They also come in garlic & herb flavor. I put then on an iron flat pan to warm, add baked chicken, onions, tomatoes, lettuce for a wrap and they are wonderful. You can use any kind of meat. I had leftover steak tonight so I made wraps for DH and I. He loves them too!
I have sprayed them with butter flavored Pam and put them in the oven to bake, they get crisp. If you can't find them and are interested they have a web site...
www.latortillafactory.com.
I need to get to bed...early, busy day tomorrow. Getting ready to head for the lake after we vote for local elections. School board and city council.
Will check back in when we get back.
Happy Mother's Day to you all!
