Dessert Fruit Pizza


Recipe: 
  • 1 boxed brownies mix (follow directions on back of box)
  • 8 oz cream cheese, softened
  • 1/2 cup powdered sugar
  • Bananas
  • lemon juice
  • Diced strawberries
  • Blueberries 

Preheat the oven to 350. Grease a 12-inch round pizza pan with nonstick spray; set aside. (We split our batter up and made 2 smaller pies.) 

Follow brownie mix directions on the back of the box. 

In a medium bowl, cream together the cream cheese and powdered sugar until smooth. Spread evenly over the top of the cooled brownie round. Slice the bananas and sprinkle with lemon juice to preserve the coloring. Place the banana slices evenly over the top of the cream cheese layer. Sprinkle with strawberries and blueberries.  

Note to self: Next time, add more berries!! It was delicious, but too cream cheesy for me!

Greek Yogurt Waffles

Yummy!
I've been on a Greek Yogurt kick lately and I found this article online titled, "51 Healthy Greek Yogurt Recipes for Any Meal" by Laura Newcomer. There were many recipes I would like to try however it was 9:30 in the morning so I decided to try a breakfast recipe. I chose to make Greek Yogurt Pancakes. 

Obviously, I turned mine into waffles and they were delicious! I used plain Greek Yogurt and added a Banana and a couple handfuls of blueberries. I'll definitely be making these again, but next time, I want to try Blueberry Greek Yogurt instead of plain.

Toast

I don't like Banana's dipped in Chocolate so why would I like Banana's on Peanut Butter toast? 

Last week, for breakfast, I made peanut butter toast and put four teeny slices of Banana on it. It was delicious! The next morning I tried it again only this time with more Bananas. By day three, I covered the whole piece of toast with Bananas and it was so good! Not only does this breakfast fill me up but it seems to give me energy for the entire day!

Who would've thought?! 

Not the best picture, but you get the idea.

Banana Muffins

In honor of Valentine's Day... I just wanted to use my new heart pan!

 The recipe is for Banana Bread, but I used it to make Banana Muffins instead.

Ingredients:
1/2 c. butter or margarine
1 c. sugar
2 beaten eggs
2 c. flour
1 tsp. baking soda
3 bananas, mashed
1/2 c. chopped nuts (I left these out)
**I added 1 tsp. Vanilla and cinnamon sugar on top. 

Cream together margarine and sugar; add eggs. Combine flour and baking soda. Add bananas. Place in large greased bread pan or 2 small loaf pans or if you're me 2 large muffin pans. Bake at 350 for 40 minutes (loaf) and 10-12 minutes for muffins.
