I'm looking for some more cool weather recipes and dishes to add to my repetoire.
I just love spending a Sunday afternoon slow cooking or baking something delicious to end a weekend.
Do you have those favorites when the weather turns?
I'm currently baking some pumpkin-cream cheese muffins based on that Weight Watchers recipe where you mix a 15 oz can of pumpkin and a box of spice cake mix. But I mix up a container of neufchatel cheese, 1/2t of vanilla, a splash of almond milk and two egg whites and blend until smooth with some freshly grated cinnamon and nutmeg. Layer them in large tinfoil muffin liners and bake for 30 minutes at 350. They're the bomb, baby. And really good for you. Good for the GI tract. LOL.
I also love to cook up a big pot of chili, though I can't post the recipe because it's a secret.
It's got Guinness, cocoa, coffee and some other yumminess in it. We keep a fish chowder, a chicken noodle, a sundried tomato tortellini, a tomato basil florentine and a beef and barley soup in the freezer most of the time. But since the weather is getting colder, I'm looking to add more hearty (and still healthy) stuff to the menu. Any ideas?
