A Few Good Ones...


It's been about six weeks since we got here. I've been doing quite a bit of cooking, and I figured I'd share some of the good ones I've found. No, I don't cook for low calorie, sugar, sodium, grain...or whatever else people aren't eating right now. I do try to make what ingredients I can, which seems to work out. So don't read this if you're on a diet. ;)

This one was a pretty big hit. My favorite part was the crust. It's made from coconut. It has the best texture. I'm pretty big on texture, and this is my favorite crust ever. It would be so good for a cheesecake I think. Not that it probably adds much, but I toasted the coconut for the top.
Oh, and if you want to enjoy this, don't look at the calories before you eat it. Or after for that matter.

I didn't try this one myself, but it seemed to be well liked.

Another Fave:
I did make the bread sticks, but also doubled the recipe so I could make pizzas that night. I used the ingredient list on Idaho Pizza's website to make the Sun Valley Veggie, and a chicken bacon pizza. I searched and searched for a good cream sauce. The best and simplest solution was SO good! Just make ranch dressing, of course nothing from a bottle. Spread that on, then spread Alfredo sauce on top of that. Also, of course, don't use it from a can. 

Well, there have been more, but at the moment, I have Dinner Rolls that have finished rising.
Goodnight! 

As a side note, these rolls were really good. Super delight.
