Recipes

Hey... we were talkin muffin recipes the other day around the table, so here's the one I was mentioning, which I found on the SPARKS RECIPES site. They are 2 weight watchers points each... and I find the texture is pretty good for a lowfat recipe... but better when it's totally cooled off.

APPLESAUCE OATMAL MUFFINS

Ingredients

1 cup old fashion rolled oats (not instant)
1 cup non-fat milk
1 cup whole wheat flour
1/2 cup brown sugar
1/2 cup unsweetened applesauce
2 egg whites
1 tsp. baking powder
1/2 tsp. baking soda
1/2 tsp. salt
1 tsp. cinnamon
1 tsp. sugar
raisins or nuts (optional)



Directions

Soak the oats in milk for about one hour.
Preheat the oven to 400 degrees.
Spray muffin pan with cooking spray.
Combine the oat mixture with the applesauce and egg whites, and mix until combined.
In a separate bowl measure and whisk the dry ingredients together.
Add wet ingredients to dry and mix until just combined. Add nuts or raisins if desired.
Do not over mix the batter or the muffins will be tough. Spoon muffin mixture into muffin pan.
Combine the cinnamon and sugar and top each muffin with some of the mixture.
Bake for 20-25 minutes or until done.
Remove from pan, cool and enjoy.
These can be frozen and reheated in the microwave for a quick breakfast.

Number of Servings: 12

ANYONE ELSE GOT A GOOD ONE TO SHARE???

Hot enought for ya?

Ok, so that's a stretch,but we'll take whatever degree of warming up we're given, right??

Who's runnin' tomorrow?

Nice to have a good group out last weekend. I'm driving from Shannon Lake for a 7:30 start... let me know if you'd like to be picked up!

And if there is anyone who has been meaning to get started again and is looking for some slow company, I'm doing 3 & 1's, just up to the park and back... incase you're looking for someone to do a shorter, manageable run with!

Looking forward to it,
Dawn

Hello ladies,

I am soooo excited to get out running tomorrow--how 'bout you?

I'm going to start running from Bliss at 7:00 and run as far as my legs will take me. I think Colleen is going to do 15k.

Hope to see you there.
