Favorites

So lately I've been going through my favorite recipes and putting them on an app on the iPod. I hate clutter, but it never seems to go away, so this is one of my ideas to declutter my recipe book. Anyways....one of my favorite recipes happens to be Banana Muffins. These are the most easy and delicious muffins I've ever come across. Here's the recipe:


Banana Muffins

3 bananas
1/2 cup (1 stick) butter
1 cup Sugar
2 cups Flour
1 tsp baking soda

Put the ingredients together, mixing the sugar, butter and bananas first. Them plop them into a greased muffin tin, usually makes 12 small and 11 big muffins. I like making the small ones for Gavin. 350 degrees on the oven. 12-15 minutes-though my oven does cook hot. and Voila....easy home made breakfast. Here's a picture. Yummy, right?

Here are the 2 recipes from the blessing. Enjoy!


Veggie Pizza- here's the link for the webpage I got the recipe from.

*2 pkgs. crescent rolls (8 in each)




Press onto cookie sheet overlapping edges to seal. Bake at 350 F for 10 to 15 minutes or until done. Let cool.



*1/2 cup mayonnaise

*2 8oz pkgs. cream cheese

*1 pkg. Hidden Valley Ranch Dressing Mix

*1 tablespoon milk



Mix together the above ingredients and spread over crescent roll crust.



Finely chop or pulse in food processor:



*3/4 cup broccoli

*3/4 cup cauliflower

*3/4 cup red or green pepper

*1/2 cup green onion

*1/4 cup radishes

*1/4 cup celery



Combine vegetables and sprinkle over the top of cream cheese. Gently press veggies into cream cheese mixture. For best results, make one day before serving and refrigerate until needed. The flavors really benefit from sitting overnight. Serve cold or at room temperature.
