Healthier Baked Pasta & Cheese
The other day, my wife and I were jonesing for something cheesy for dinner, and so I took to looking for a healthy “mac and cheese” recipe to satisfy our taste for all things cheesy, while keeping it nutritious. I found a recipe for Broccoli Mac and Cheese in my Good Housekeeping 400 Calorie Meals cookbook, and gave it a whirl. Admittedly, I altered the recipe a bit to suit the types of cheese I had on hand (and to use a different pasta noodle other than macaroni). But after all was said, done, and baked, the end result was nothing short of delicious. If you’re in the mood for some homemade “mac and cheese”, give this recipe a shot — it’s sure to satisfy your craving for all things cheesy!
Cauliflower Pasta and Cheese al Forno
The other night I wanted to try a new recipe, and was jonesing for some cauliflower. My cousin shared a Cauliflower Mac n Cheese recipe from the My Fitness Pal blog. With a few minor modifications to the original recipe, I ended up with a delicious and healthy result that I highly suggest you make. If you love “mac and cheese”, I see no reason why you won’t love this even more!
Broiled Brown Sugar Banana Pancakes
This Saturday I was in the mood for making a nice new breakfast recipe, and found an amazing recipe for Broiled Brown Sugar Bananas in the Good Housekeeping 400 Calorie Meals cookbook. I decided to try it, but rather than just making them on their own, I chose to pair it with some homemade pancakes. The result was an amazingly tasty, warm, and comforting breakfast that I’ll gladly make again. So if you’re in the mood for a new twist on boring old pancakes, give this a try — it’s super easy, and is sure to please your taste buds.
Sweet Potato Pizza
One of my favorite kinds of pizza is my Sweet Potato Pizza. It’s not your stereotypical pizza, as most Americans envision. It doesn’t use any marinara sauce, doesn’t have any of the standard toppings, yet is delightfully flavorful and unique in its own right. The sweetness of the cheese paired with the savory richness of the caramelized onion and oven-roasted sweet potatoes makes for an absolutely delicious end product that’s sure to please!
Pizza Americana
This is my go-to pizza dough recipe for pizzas I make in my oven. It’s a great all-purpose recipe, and is useful in its strength and ability to hold more toppings than other styles of dough. It produces a bread-like crust that’s both filling and deliciously tasty. And we all know that the dough is arguably the most important part of the pizza, as it is more often than not the culprit of making or breaking the final product.
