Lowfat Apple Pecan Waffle Recipe

Makes 1 waffle
This super-easy, super-delicious waffle is one of my favorites. Did you know that research has shown that ordinary cinnamon is anything but? It can control blood pressure and blood sugar, so sprinkle away!
Ingredients:

Healthy Lowfat Apple Muffins | Applesauce and whole grains

Make a batch of these to freeze for easy breakfasts and snacks. If you don’t have currants — tiny, dried, sweet Zante grapes — substitute dark or golden raisins or snipped dried plums (prunes).  These muffins are made with whole grains, sweetened with fruits and are relatively low fat as well.

Healthier Almond Cookie Recipe

I love almonds and have a soft spot for cookies.  These healthier almond cookies freeze well, but save the dusting of confectioner’s sugar to just before serving. These are a tasty and healthier variation on some familiar holiday cookies!
