Lamb Chops with Mushroom & Cider-Mint GlazeLamb chops are treat enough on our table, but we especially enjoyed them with this mint-infused mushroom sauce. When I spotted O-bone lamb chops on sale and considered my bounty of fresh garden mint, I knew the two were destined to marry! This recipe was inspired by the Longhorn Steak House, though I reverted to packaged gravy mix… |

Baked Stuffed ClamsThese make a great appetizer, or serving a couple they make a nice dinner, and occasionally to make them truly elegant I top them with Hollandaise sauce for a decadent treat. You can get fresh clams and open them yourself and save the shells to reuse, or use large scallop shells which are easier to find, or even place in ramekins,… |

Sour Cream Streusel MuffinsA personal-size coffee cake in a muffin - these are seriously addicting! Increase the streusel topping if you’re crazy about the heavenly crunch on top (1 ½ times streusel topping ingredients should do it.) Be prepared for these gems to disappear quickly. |

Mini Lemon CheesecakeFor my cheesecake, I decided that Greek yogurt would be a great way to cut back a few of the calories, I mean come on it is cheesecake and there is a certain amount of rich decadent creaminess that calls for full fat......but why not make a small concession and cut back the fat just a bit, after all I do love Greek Yogurt! I did end… |

Sweet Zucchini PicklesToo many zucchini - what to do? A recipe by Chuck Allen (Palm Springs) caught my eye. Expectations are high from this retired chef, so he takes this recipe as a hostess gift. It is as colorful as it is delicious and lasts about 6 weeks refrigerated. The only thing I added was small cauliflowerettes. What an attractive conversation… |

I’ve made it skinny by using reduced-fat milk… |

The skinny for 1 serving is only 94 calories, 3.6 grams… |

Best Crispy WafflesThis is my favorite recipe for a crisp waffle. If that’s the way you like them, don’t reduce the oil, cause that’s what makes them crispy! Lazy soul that I am, I mix the batter in a blender and use that as a pitcher to pour them conveniently. I freeze extra waffles for a quick into-the-toaster breakfast. Just add maple syrup, butter… |
