Quickie Kit Kat Bars Here’s this week’s Meatless Monday entry–Quickie Kit Kat Bars.

Orange Creamsicles
Orange Creamsicle You won’t be able to stop at one! Oh my, but these are good! I’ve always loved this treat, even from childhood. I’ve tried to duplicate it a few times in the past without much success. But then I thought, why try to “duplicate” it? By and large, the product was artificially…

Apple Flautas
Apple Flautas Warm and delicious…nothing beats a flauta! And they can also be made on a gas BBQ grill–great for an outdoor party dessert. Not bad calorie-wise either (if you can stop at one). I’ve always been intrigued by these ever since a neighbor gave me a bag of some from Schwan’s a few years…
Mint Chocolate Chip Mousse
