Mine turned out very dry and not very sweet so if you're good at tinkering with recipes, you might be able to make something out of them. Of course, I omitted several ingredients from the original recipe (like blackstrap molasses and honey) which could possibly have something to do with how they turned out! And you can't taste even a hint of fruits in these muffins so I think if I do make them again I will add frozen blueberries or strawberries and at least another 1/2 cup of Splenda. On the plus side, they did stay with me for most of the morning and were a nice change from hot cereal and/or eggs.
Fruit Muffins
1 cup corn meal
1 cup oat bran
1 cup Wheatena (or wheat hot cereal)
2 tsp baking powder
1/2 tsp baking soda
2 tsp cinnamon
1 tsp allspice
1 cup crushed pineapple
1/3 cup unsweetened applesauce
1 cup FF milk
1 egg
1/2 cup Splenda
In large bowl, combine all dry ingredients. In a small bowl, stir together wet ingredients. Add wet to dry ingredients and stir just until blended. Fill 12 large greased muffin tins and bake at 375 degrees for 15 to 20 minutes or until done.

This is my absolute favorite way to eat pumpkin and/or squash. Great for dessert, breakfast, whatever. Is basically pumpkin pie without the crust - try it for Thanksgiving!

-------- ------------ --------------------------------
1 cup canned black beans -- rinsed and drained
1/3 cup chunky salsa
2 whole eggs -- slightly beaten
2 tablespoons skim milk
1/4 teaspoon black pepper
1/8 teaspoon salt
nonstick cooking spray

4 teaspoons snipped fresh mint
In a small saucepan mash the beans slightly. Stir in salsa. Cook and stir over low heat till heated through. Remove from heat; cover and keep warm.
In a small bowl beat together eggs, milk, pepper, and salt. Coat a 10" nonstick omelet pan (or skillet with flared sides) with cooking spray. Heat over med heat till a drop of water sizzles.
For each egg "tortilla," pour about 1/4 cup of the egg mixture into the pan. Lift and tilt pan to spread egg mixture over bottom. Return to heat. Cook for 1 1/2 to 2 min or till ligh brown on bottom (do not turn). Loosen edges with a spatula; carefully slide onto a serving plate, browned side down.
To assemble, spread the bean mixture onto egg tortillas just below centers. Top with tomato and half of the cheese. Fold each in half, then into quarters to form a burrito. Top with sour cream and remaining cheese; sprinkle with mint. If desired, serve with additional salsa.

"Try these zesty burritos for an exciting change of pace."
Here is my basic Core Breakfast I eat most mornings.
1/4 c ff cottage cheese
1/4 c ff plain yogurt
1/4 c pureed pumkin
1/4 of a medium apple, chopped (right now I am using fuji)
cinnamon, nutmeg, ginger and splenda to taste
Mix together and serve. For crunch I sometimes add 1/4 c Uncle Sam Cereal for 1/2 point
For those who have busy mornings, I mix a big batch (except cereal) and store in fridge - mix well before scooping to a bowl. BTW - apples do not get brown and stay crunchy through the week. I usually eat 1/2 c before hitting the gym and 1/2 c when I get back.
1 32 oz carton ff cottage cheese
1 32 oz carton ff yogurt
1 29 oz can pureed pumkin
2 chopped apples

I made these according to the recipe the first time. Then I played with it a little and used 2 cups of crushed pineapple and 1 cup of splenda. I had to increase the cornmeal, wheatina, and oat bran by 1/4 cup to thicken it up. It made for very moist muffins and you can taste the fruit better. I want to try this with peaches or cranberries next. This has become my favorite snack on CORE because it's so filling!
