Three way: enjoyable apple recipes

I’m excited to introduce a new thing to the blog called the three way.  It’s something I thought would be fun, but it’s been a learning experience.  I’m glad I started off with something simple like an apple.  I’m a huge fan of red apples: gala, pink lady, jazz…I can never have enough.  Willie is strictly Granny Smith but that’s too tart for me.

It’s fall and everything is going pumpkin again.  I love pumpkin but we should really enjoy the great selection of apples coming our way.  That’s the reason for the apple three way.  I went sweet this time but these are great low calorie snacks that you won’t feel bad eating.  Remember, it’s about moderation.

This is the first three way and I promise it will only get better from here.  Take the time to watch the video and the recipes will be down below.

I’m super excited to be sharing some apple recipes with you from the video:

The Apple Pizza

The Apple Quesadilla

The Stuffed Apple

I really hope you enjoyed the first three way.  Remember it will only get better from here.  It’s a learn process with the video and recipes.  I always want to keep things simple for everyday life.  Share with your friends and pin away.

What’s your favorite type of apple: green or red?

Recipe: The Apple Pizza

Recipe: The Apple Pizza

This recipe is part of the Apple Three Way Series. The apple pizza isn’t meant to be fancy.  It’s meant to be easy.  I used PB2 again in this recipe because I had it on hand AND it’s something I don’t have to worry about the calories or fat from the peanut butter. You can use peanut butter instead of the PB2 though.  It’s up to you! Also, these apple pizzas are great because you can customize to what you want.  Some people may want shredded coconut on them.  Others may nuts or apple butter or raisins…or all of that.…

Recipe: The Apple Quesadilla

Recipe: The Apple Quesadilla

It’s like an apple pie but in a quesadilla form.  It’s a nice twist and it’s super easy.  If you have a panini press, this would be great. There are two options here: 1. you can sauté the apples with cinnamon in a pan until softened or 2. warm  up your apples with cinnamon in the microwave.  I always do the microwave because it’s easier.  Remember, I’m not a cook so I’m always going the easy route.  The whole idea is not to spend a lot of time making this stuff. To make my cinnamon cream cheese, I used a…

Twist on an broccoli slaw recipe

Twist on an broccoli slaw recipe

I’ve been completely OBSESSED with eggs lately so I’ve been trying new ways to incorporate them in my diet, specifically my snacks. I’ve been craving cole slaw lately for some reason. I don’t post a lot of recipes on the blog because I’m not really cook. I make quick meals but I don’t spend a lot of time making stuff in the kitchen. It’s really practical stuff. That’s why I’m sharing with you the broccoli slaw recipe I’ve been snacking on for a week. Quick and easy and good for you. Egg and ham broccoli slaw Recipe Type: Side dish/snack…

WIAW: Look inside our fridge & eating animal protein again

It’s another Wednesday which means it’s time for WIAW (What I Ate Wednesday). I’m trying to do different things with food post so this week I’m taking you inside of our fridge. This way I can show you what we’re eating. Take a look at the video: Willie and I have switched off our vegetarian diet for one very good reason. We were coming up protein deficient because it became harder and harder for us to find the foods we needed in our city. The egg shortage has become a big issue and there was never any tofu at the…

Meal Prep: Meatloaf all week

Meal Prep: Meatloaf all week

Hey all!  I hope you’re having a great day and enjoying the food that you’re eating.  I know I am.  I wanted to share some tips on making leftovers new again.  I know people who CAN NOT eat the same foods day in and day out.  I am not one of those people.  I am a creature of habit and it really won’t bother me to eat the same meal all week.  That’s probably why I consider meal prepping easy. I’ve been eating the same breakfast everyday for a LONG time.  Some people can’t do that so I want to…

WIAW: This week’s eats and the leftover

WIAW: This week’s eats and the leftover

Hello all.  This week I’m linking up with Peas and Crayongs for WIAW to share what we are eating this week. This week it was all about the leftovers.  I hate wasting food.  The prices at the grocery store seems to be rising so wasting the moolah on food just makes me upset.  Luckily, we had plenty of stuff leftover from last week that I was able to make new this week.  In my opinion, I think it turned out better this week. There is video: Here is a closer look at what we prepped this week: Breakfast is always the same…

Five Things Friday: Things I Want To Try

Five Things Friday: Things I Want To Try

Welcome to this week’s edition of Five Things Friday.  I’m talking about the things I want to to try.  There’s nothing really outlandish going on here, but there is some interesting stuff on this list…well at least to me. I don’t know what has stopped me from trying these things, but something has.  Maybe I should get to the root of the problem or just skip that part and just start trying stuff. I won’t waste any more of your time, so I’ll just get to the list. 1. A zumba class. Technically, I’ve gone to a Zumba class BUT…

The loaf that fell apart and mixed greens recipe

On Sunday, we actually had time to prep out some meals.  It was nice being able to do that so I guess it’s fine the weekend was pretty uneventful. I’ve been dying to make a curried lentil loaf for a few weeks now, but I never had enough time to actually make one or I didn’t buy the right stuff from the store.  Basically bad planning kept me from making a lentil loaf. Here’s a video showing a little of the meal prep this week and I give you tips!  Watch for the tips! So what exactly is the lentil…

Vegetarian eats this week: sloppy joes and some rice “salad”

It’s been a long week and I realized that I didn’t share with you what we made this week to eat. There’s no time like the present to share. It’s nothing spectacular and was kind of a slow week in our house for no reason at all. But it’s the a time of the week where I show my vegetarian eats this week! We haven’t really changed up our breakfast in like 3 years so we’re still eating the same egg and overnight oats. It works. I don’t even do anything different to the overnight oats which I should. I…
