Zucchini Pizza Slices

Zucchini Pizza Slices
This idea of grilled zucchini used as a base for pizza toppings is one of those cooking ideas that swirl around in my head, and sometimes I'm never sure if I thought of it or saw it somewhere else. I kept wondering how it would work to arrange a marriage between Grilled Zucchini and Val's Kid-Friendly Broiled Zucchini Rounds with Cheese, with the offspring having a little pizza personality, and when I saw Alea's Eggplant Pizza Bites on $5 Dinners, it convinced me to try it. Even so, this is only a recipe in the very loosest sense of the word, because anything you like on pizza could be cooked on top of a thick slice of grilled or broiled zucchini. I'm a pepperoni girl, so of course I had to have that, but the topping options are endless here. Admittedly, this is not a pizza in the truest sense of the word, but if you'd like pizza flavors with a "crust" that's gluten-free, low-glycemic, and low-carb, this is an idea you may end up liking just as much as I did!

Peppermint Oreo Pops Oreos on a stick might not seem that special; they certainly aren't that different from Oreos that aren't on a stick! But there's just something about them that is really cute. And really tasty in that I-know-this-is-not-the-least-bit-healthy kind of way. And food on a stick is always more fun to eat, right?! Instead of doing a regular ol' recipe, I figured I'd do a little tutorial. It just seems to call for it. Peppermint Oreo Pops 1 package double-stuffed Oreos (the regular ones aren't thick enough) 2 bags white candy melts (you really only need about 1 1/2 bags, but oh well) paper lollipop sticks (I like the 6-inch ones) 1. 3. 4. 5. 6. 7. 8. 9. 10. Tips: Depending on how successfully you split the Oreos and how many broken ones you find in your package, you can get up to 30 Oreo Pops from this recipe.

Spinach Crust Pizza Woooooooow! Another healthy blog post in the middle of December's Christmas baking frenzy. How does that happen? I have no idea...... I'm as surprised as you are. This recipe is as uber healthy as you can get. Yes. Really. It's delicious. I was trying to think of a way to describe this crust without making it sound like something you wouldn't want to make. Then I had a light bulb moment. The best way to describe this crust is to compare it to a tortilla. If you don't mind getting messy then you can try eating this with your hands (I did!) I was really surprised at how easy this is to make. And how amazingly tasty it is. And how healthy it is. (As per Fitday) Crust only: 400 calories, 29 fat, 5 carbs, 32 protein. With my toppings: 600 calories, 37 fat, 18 carbs, 48.7 protein. That's for the entire pizza. *gasp* I googled the nutritional info a plain cheese pizza of the same size (12 inches). Holy he-double-hockey-sticks. Spinach Crust Pizza Ingredients Crust 2 cups raw spinach leaves 1 egg (large) Toppings

Homemade peanut butter cups I’ve always wanted to make my own chocolate and peanut butter cups. The recipes are so easy, I’m not sure why I’ve never gotten around to it until now. They really took no time at all, in nearly 30 minutes I was already sinking my teeth into these oh-so-rich peanut butter cups. I looked at a few recipes and skipped on most of them. Some of them used shortening, or called for ingredients I didn’t have. I used the recipe from Have Cake, Will Travel; they looked like the perfect ones. My notes: I took the advice from Have Cake, Will Travel and added 2 tablespoons of peanut butter to the melted chocolate; I did not add extra salt; I melted the chocolate in a heavy-bottom saucepan rather than the microwave; I used regular sized cupcake liners, not minis, so mine are closer to Reese’s Peanut Butter Cups size; I used the freezer instead of the refrigerator to set up the chocolate on the bottom. They are so delicious. Homemade Chocolate Peanut Butter CupsAdapted from Have Cake, Will TravelMakes 12
