Mini Cake or Cupcakes

 Is your kid begging to bake a cake or cupcakes and you really don't want that much sugar around your house?

This recipe makes one 8 inch round cake or 12 regular cupcakes so you can get your sugar fix.

At my son's request, we made the cake chocolate with strawberry frosting, but I've also made this as a yellow cake with vanilla frosting too.

Breakfast Cookies

 Who wants cookies for breakfast?

Me!

Chewy Peanut Butter Granola Bars

I love chewy peanut butter granola bars and so have been experimenting with some recipes.

I was looking for ones with lots of protein, whole grains, and inexpensive ingredients. I adapted and tried several recipes until I came up with this one. It is kind of messy, but delicious. These are very thick -- I usually slice them into squares instead of bars.

Baked Egg Rolls

I've been making these egg rolls for over a year now and everyone always really likes them, despite the fact that they are baked instead of deep fried.

If I want the recipe to be easier, I buy a bag of shredded cabbage. I like to pair them with microwave sweet and sour sauce.
