Recipe
Ingredients
MIX TOGETHER
1/4 cup unsweetened applesauce
2 tbsp lite preserves or
1 fruit-based jam

1 egg replacer equal to 1 egg
1 (reconstituted to liquid)
STIR IN
2 to 3 mashed very ripe

Recipe
Preparation
Add dry ingredients to the batter, mixing well. Stir in 1/4 C
raisins or date pieces (found in the bulk bins at some health food
stores). Fill cupcake size muffin tins 3/4 full. (Batter is very
thick.) Bake 30 minutes at 350 degrees, until top is brown and has a
hard crust. Cool slightly, then remove from tins. Makes 12. This is a
great recipe to double or triple, depending on how many ripe bananas
you have.
These freeze beautifully and can be popped in the oven or toaster
oven at 350 degrees for about 15 minutes to give them that fresh
baked feel, if desired.
I use a nonstick muffin pan but I just picked up some cushionaire
muffin tins and find the breads came out lighter now. I do NOT spray
the tins with any Pam.

Food Tips of the Week
Advice on losing weight
Make sure that you drink enough fluids. Sometimes at some stage in a hectic work day, you feel you need food when in truth you may need a refreshing glass of water or cranberry juice. The feelings of hunger and thirst are somewhat similar, but one of them ends in weight increase and the other one leads to no damage.
Some low carb diet pointers:
* Make low carb breadcrumbs for deep fried or oven baked foods.
While you can sometimes buy reduced carb breadcrumbs, you can make them yourself by using reduced carbohydrate bread. Simply toast the reduced carbohydrate bread in the oven on a sheet of cookie paper. When it is well browned, grind it in your blender. Store in an airtight jar or container.
Brassicas, Super foods that aid Dieting
(includes Arugula, Celery, Mustard greens and Chinese cabbage)
Known as cruciferous vegetables, these are jam-packed with vitamins (including vitamin c and folate), minerals (including potassium and selenium), fibre, chlorophyll and antioxidents.
Amongst many health giving properties, the vitamins and nutrients in these are believed by nutritionalists to reduce the risk of cancer.
