Guacamole
-
1 Avocado
-
1 Roma tomato
-
cilantro
-
cumin
-
salt
-
pepper
-
lime juice
Chop the tomatoes and cilantro, mash the avocados, and mix together, add spices and lime juice to taste.
If you want to make a bigger batch, just add more of everything, but keep the ratio 1
avocado per 1 tomato.
Also, for a change I sometimes add some diced cucumber.
Tortilla Chips - When the Chips Are Down?
If you love tortilla chips but hate the fat, make your own! Just cut five flour tortillas (preferably whole wheat) into eighths to make 40 wedges. Arrange them on baking sheets, coat them with cooking spray, and sprinkle them with 1/2 teaspoon each of salt and chili powder. Bake at 350?F for about 10 minutes, or until crisp.
Healthy Pancakes
Substitute Oatmeal and
low fat cottage cheese for pancake mix. Sounds weird but its actually kinda good
and gets rid of those bad carbs (45g elim/pancake) Mix together in blender 1/2
cup oatmeal, 1/4 cup low fat cottage cheese, two eggs, a dash each of vanilla,
cinnamon and nutmeg. Blend and cook like regular pancake mix. Makes 4 normal
size pancakes.

Awesome Pancakes
Ingredients
Flour 2 Cups
Sugar 2 Tbsp.
Baking Powder 1 Tbsp.
Eggs 2
Cooking Oil 1/3 Cup
Milk 1 1/2 Cups
* Mix dry ingredients and set aside.
* In two separate bowls, separate the egg yolks and egg whites
* Beat egg whites until stiff
* Slightly beat egg yolks and add oil and milk. Beat until well mixed.
* Add egg, milk and oil mixture to dry ingredients and mix by hand. Beat slightly with mixer until just smooth.
* Mixture should be thick and creamy.
* Then "fold" the egg whites into the mixture until just blended.
Our favorite variation is to drop 6-8 blueberries in the batter after the pancake is spooned onto the griddle or pan. Top with maple syrup and enjoy.
