Flourless PB&J Cookies: Two Ways
This is the craving that got me back in the kitchen to try something new. The Recipe Girl mentioned her mother's flourless peanut butter cookies on Twitter, and off I went. These are so delish - chewy, crunchy, not too sweet, and so easy, made with just five ingredients!

Bread Pudding in a Pan
 Sometimes, a little too often and late at night, I get this craving for sweets that I just can't ignore, but the thought of turning on the oven to bake anything just won't do it - nevermind having to wait for something to bake! So, I did what any dessert-crazy girl would do: I reinvented bread pudding using my handy-dandy IMUSA egg pan to make a decadent and easy dessert!

Carrot Coconut Flan
Here's the SKINNY on this dessert: if my math is right, one serving has about 80 calories! Yup, 80 - and they're guilt free! That's because I did away with the traditional recipe and came up with a light, healthy and super yummy version. Don't be intimidated: flan isn't as hard as it looks!

"FIT" Chocolate Chip Cookies
It was with the biggest of chocolate chip cookie cravings that I swapped a few ingredients to make a healthier cookie that I wouldn't feel too guilty about. Five cookies later, maybe it wasn't the best of ideas. I'm told these are way good!

Crispy Pear Crumble


A weeknight or weekend treat, this isn’t your average, made-crisp-with-a-cup-of-butter crumble. These sweet pears are topped with wholesome oats, brown sugar, all-natural honey, spicy cinnamon and a splash of heart-healthy canola oil.
