SWEET SUNDAY

When I saw this twist on the traditional dessert on Bakers Royale, I couldn't wait to share them with you. The once large and messy banana split has gone marvelously mini for some bite size fun! And yes, there is actually a tiny scoop of ice cream inside these darling desserts. Whip these babies up for your next party or playdate. They are the perfect size for kid's to pop into their mouths without the melted ice cream mess. Little tip – make more than you think. They go FAST!

~BANANA SPLIT BITES~

Ingredients:
FIRM Banana
Ice Cream of choice
Chocolate
Whip Cream
Sprinkles or nuts
Maraschino Cherries

Directions:
Cut bananas into 1 inch sections. Leave the peel on for easy handling.
With a melon baller, dig a well in the middle of each banana sections.

Melt chocolate in the microwave.
Dip the bottom portion of the banana in chocolate and then dip it once again in either sprinkles or chopped peanuts.
To quickly harden the chocolate, place dipped bananas in the freezer for five minutes.Fill each well with ice cream of choice.
Top with whip cream and a maraschino cherry.

I hope this ends 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!

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...
