BLUEBERRY PANCAKES 2 egg yolks 2 egg whites 4 ounces cream cheese 1/2 cup blueberries, fresh or thawed frozen, 2 1/2 ounces or approximately 60 berries Granular Splenda, optional (not included in counts)  In a small mixing bowl, soften the cream cheese in the microwave about 30 seconds. Separate the eggs, adding the yolks to the cream cheese. In another small mixing bowl, beat the egg whites until stiff. Beat the yolks and cream cheese until creamy and a bit fluffy. Fold yolks into the whites, gently so you don't deflate the whites. Heat some oil in a large, non-stick skillet on medium heat.  Drop the batter by large tablespoonfuls into the hot oil. Immediately drop 6-7 blueberries on each pancake. Gently push them into the batter with your finger. This helps to keep them from falling out when you flip them. When nicely browned on the bottom, flip them over and cook until browned on the other side. Flip them back over before removing so you don't lose any berries w...

GARLIC "BREAD" 4 ounces cream cheese, softened 3 eggs 1/3 cup heavy cream 1/4 cup parmesan cheese, 1 ounce 1/2 teaspoon garlic powder 8 ounces mozzarella cheese, shredded  Beat the cream cheese and eggs with a whisk until smooth. Add the cream, parmesan and seasonings. Grease a jelly roll pan very well (I used an 11 1/2 x 17" pan and it came out very, very thin. I might try a smaller pan next time); spread the mozzarella evenly in pan. Pour the egg mixture over the cheese. Spread slightly with a spatula. Bake at 350� for 20 minutes until lightly browned. Cool on a rack, then cut into 24 pieces. If desired, spread a little butter on them and sprinkle with garlic powder and parmesan cheese; broil just until butter is bubbly and very lightly browned.

Keeping the oven rack in the center position, put the pizza under the broiler until the toppings are hot and any cheese you added is melted and bubbly, about 4-5 minutes.

I made up this yummy recipe because I love the juicy, sweet Grape Tomatoes! This is an especially good side dish for summer meals and a great make-ahead for entertaining. Broiled Grape Tomatoes 2 small crates of grape tomatoes Italian salad dressing Grated Parmesan cheese (Don't use the kind in green canister for this recipe.) Dried oregano leaves freshly ground black pepper Preheat broiler to high or you can do this part ahead if you want to serve it later. Cover a large cookie sheet with non-stick foil. Cut grape tomatoes in half lengthwise and lay them cut-side up on the no-stick foil. Brush the tomatoes with Italian dressing. Actually, it's more like DABBING because you want the tomatoes to stay cut-side up. If you're doing this ahead, just leave the tomatoes on the counter and the Italian dressing will soak into the tomatoes making it yummier. When it's time to prep for serving: Pop the prepared tomatoes under your broiler. Let them broil until they are slightly go...

With the onset of warmer temperatures here in Utah, finally, it's time for some refreshing summer foods. And a summer classic is chicken salad, whether on a croissant or a bed of lettuce. I found this recipe on allrecipes.com and adapted it slightly. The original recipe called for dried cranberries (I substituted grapes) and 1/2 cup chopped green pepper (which I omitted). But I'm sure that a lot of variations are possible. You could use pineapple tidbits or mandarin oranges instead of the grapes, slivered almonds instead of pecans, etc. 4 cups cubed, cooked chicken 1 cup mayonnaise 1 teaspoon paprika 1 1/2 cups seedless grapes, halved 1 cup chopped celery 2 green onions, chopped 1/2 cup minced green bell pepper 1 cup chopped pecans 1 teaspoon seasoning salt ground black pepper to taste In a medium bowl, mix together mayonnaise with paprika and seasoning salt.

I love anything you can put maple syrup on.  And I especially love these.  Justin and I were on a quest for the perfect pancake recipe.  I've always been partial to Bisquik but after doing a little cost comparison (I just thought about it for a second really), homemade pancakes are practically free and Bisquik is a little pricey per pancake. Back to the quest. We tried 2 recipes out of our cookbooks and one I had in my recipe box from who knows where since who knows when.  Yesterday I went to the web and typed in "pancake recipe".  This is the very first one that came up from allrecipes.com.  We loved it.  It helped they were cooked in the fat from the bacon we just fried.  So it was a short quest but nontheless triumphant. This makes about 8 pancakes so those of you with larger families, I'd double it. Or if you like leftovers for the freezer. Ingredients 1 1/2 cups all-purpose flour 3 1/2 teaspoons baking powder 1 teaspoon salt 1 tablespoon...

Cruising the vendors is an exciting and often breathtaking experience, besides being a great way to meet local farmers, while at the same time supplying all of your needs for flavorful and fresh produce, flowers, herbs, honey, crafts, etc. of every variety.

Today I'll give you one of my favorite dessert recipes. Pound Cakes can be eaten anytime you like, at breakfast, as a snack, or with tea in the afternoon. The following ingredients are enough for 2 baking loaf pans. Ingredients: 1 cup butter/ghee. 2 cup sugar. 3 cups flour. 5 eggs. Less than a cup milk (between 3/4 and 1 cup). 1 1/2 tsp Baking Powder. 2 tsp Vanilla extract. Directions: Start by warming up the oven to 350F. Beat the butter (or ghee) with sugar on high speed for 10 minutes!! Add the eggs and vanilla extract and beat again. Add the flour through a * sieve , by adding some of the flour in the  sieve and shake it, until it all goes down onto the mixture. Keep repeating until you finish all the 3 cups of flour. The reason for doing that, is that we need air to come into the mixture. For if you added all your flour without the previous step, your cake will be thick and sticky! And we need it to be fluffy and light! Add the baking powder and beat the mixtur...
