Mom’s Cheesecake – Simply the Best
This recipe has been handed down through the generations and I consider myself very lucky to have gotten a copy. Takes a long time, but it is so worth it. It?s a huge hit if you have to bring a dessert to a party? who doesn?t like cheesecake? I?ve tried making it more ?diet-friendly? but that just doesn?t seem to work out. I was able to swap out low to no fat on the cheeses and sour cream, but when I tried switching out the sugar for splenda or equal, it didn?t rise. But, as long as you don?t overindulge, it can?t be that bad for you ? and you only live once, you have to enjoy excellent tastes! -- posted by Laurita
Sara’s Turkey Chili
I am definitely a chili-lover, and decided to try a healthier variation of my regular chili and add ground turkey instead of my usual ground beef. Definitely a keeper! Even better with some sour cream and shredded cheddar.
To keep it healthier for my current diet, I did not add much turkey. If you are a meat lover, I suggest you add a little more ground turkey, maybe about a pound. You could even do half ground turkey and half ground beef. -- posted by MissSara87
Cookies N Cream Cheesecake Cupcakes
Personal sized Cookies N Cream Cheesecake!! I usually halve the recipe and it works fine. Also, I don't always have room in my fridge for the whole muffin pan so if I have to, I remove them from the pan to refrigerate them. -- posted by c bau
