I haven't had cinnamon rolls in years, but the other day I couldn't stop thinking about those warm, sweet treats. These cinnamon rolls  are low fat and whole wheat, so they're a bit healthier than their butter-laden relatives...but you won't be able to taste the difference!  These are lovely right out of the oven with a tall glass of cold milk...

Here is the recipe for the quiche that I made for my Easter brunch. I made a crust-less quiche for health reasons, but I have included a crust recipe below for those of you who may be interested. A store-bought crust would also be fine. I used spinach and onions in my quiche, but the filling options are endless! Imitation...

Barley Beef Stew It has been so cold the past few days, so I decided we needed some soup to warm us up.  We had one of our family favorites:  Vegetable Beef with Barley.  We’ve been making this for years and the whole family loves it.  My kids always want the bowl that has the most barley in it. ...

Spring has just arrived in my part of the country and it makes me want to trade in my hearty winter meals for lighter fare with lots of flavor.  This is a breakfast that you can put together by combining ingredients from your pantry with fresh items from your refrigerator  This would be a simple meal to make if you're just...

I decided to try something new for breakfast this weekend - German pancakes!  I've heard about this delicious, spongy treat but I decided to finally give them a whirl with my new favorite ingredient, Ova Easy egg crystals.  My pancakes weren't very pretty (see note below about opening the oven too early), but they tasted amazing and were a wonderful...

Whether you're  a stay at home parent or a CEO, your job is sure to be full of surprises. There are probably some days when you get stuck at work for longer than you intended, or you just can't find time to fit in a full meal. I found myself unexpectedly working 10 to 12 hours per day last week...

Omelet sausage scrambled Ova Easy Eggs Ova Easy Omelet   It seems as though powdered eggs are one of the long term storage foods that scare people the most.  Fresh eggs have such a unique flavor and texture that the thought of a powder substitute is indeed a little strange. I shied away from egg powder for a long...

My family loves spaghetti.  Because it’s so versatile, I like to keep plenty on hand.  I also find it much cheaper to buy it in larger quantities.  One of our family’s favorite recipes is Pasta in a Creamy Garlic Parmesan Sauce.  Food storage items that can be used in it are:  spaghetti, garlic granules, canned chicken, chopped onions, mixed peppers...
