SWEET SUNDAY

Mmmm the thought of an ooey-gooey rice crispy treat right now sounds fabulous. Let's kick up the buttery marshmallow taste and make it even more mouth-watering with chocolate, peanut butter and butterscotch. And while we are at it - let's just forget calories for the moment. :)

~Rice Crispy Roll~

Ingredients:
10 oz. package marshmallows
1/4 c. butter
1/4 c. peanut butter
5 1/2 c. Rice Krispies Cereal (generic is fine)
1 1/3 c. chocolate chips
3/4 c. butterscotch chips

Directions:
Line a 15×10 pan with wax paper, buttered.
Melt marshmallows, butter and peanut butter. Stir until smooth and well blended.
Stir in cereal.
Spread on top of wax paper.
Melt and stir the chocolate and butterscotch chips.
Spread melted chips over the cereal mixture, leaving about 1 inch on each of the long sides. Note: Once started, you need to be rather quick with the assembly and rolling, or it will get stiff and be difficult to roll.

Roll the cereal mixture from the long side, peeling back the wax paper as you go like a jelly roll.
Chill in the refrigerator until firm.
Once rolled, cut into 1/2-1 inch slices like you would slice bread.

Yummo!!! Hope these end your weekend on a sweet note! xo

Tame the Tum: Spare tire or stress bulge?

For many women, getting bikini ready means tackling one dreaded area in particular — our tummies. Most of us still think the best way to achieve a washboard stomach is by doing hundreds of sit-ups. Not so, says A-list trainer and body guru James Duigan. James, who sculpts supermodels Elle Macpherson and Rosie Huntingdon-Whiteley among others, insists there is no ‘one size fits all’ method for getting a flat belly. Instead, he’s identified five key ‘tummy types,’ all of which require a different approach to achieve successful toning. Once you figure out your tummy type (mine is the STRESS BELLY) thanks to the UK Daily Mail , you'll be on your way to getting the perfect midriff... THE SPARE TIRE TUMMY The spare tire: This is one of the easiest tummy troubles to eliminate because it's caused by eating the wrong foods and not exercising enough. HOW TO IDENTIFY THIS TYPE These people are likely to lead sedentary lives, perhaps with jobs that k...

CHICKEN NUGGETS anyone??

If this doesn't stop you from going through the drive thru - then we have quite a bit of work to do! "Mechanically Separated Chicken" is the actual name for this pink paste that looks nothing like chicken. Eventually this pink paste will be shaped into little boots, fried and placed in Happy Meals around the world! Clear explanation of Mechanically Separated Meat: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mechanically_separated_meat Lets choose something else for lunch today shall we?

Fancy Friday

Wondering what tickled my fancy (aka; something I enjoyed, adored or was satisfied by) this week? Hands down the Chicken Taco Chili I made in the crock pot. Similar to last week's " Meal in a Can " recipe but with a little more kick and ingredients. This is so freakin' easy. Beyond delicious on a chilly evening. High in protein and fiber and of course low in fat. Would I make it if it was any other way?!? Nada. And if you're a Weight Watchers guru, it's low in points too! Bonus. Having a Super Bowl gathering at your house? Whip up a big batch of this with some corn bread and you've got yourself a crowd pleaser. Great for the kids too! ~Crock Pot Chicken Taco Chili~ Recipe courtesy of skinnytaste.com Ingredients: 1 onion, chopped 1 16-oz can black beans 1 16-oz can kidney beans 1 8-oz can tomato sauce 10 oz package frozen corn kernels or 1 16 oz. can of corn 2 14.5-oz cans diced tomatoes w/chilies (mild or spicy depending on your tolerance) 3-4 boneless ski...
