Honey Almond Blueberry Muffins

These are really versatile and easy! Packed with a lot of filling but healthy ingredients.  I subbed blackberries for the blueberries since that is what I had. And peanut butter for the almond butter. Super easy! Could be frozen and microwaved.

No Bake Peanut Butter Pie

Just had this and really enjoyed it. I must confess I cheated a bit with the crust. I did a plain graham cracker crust instead of the one on the recipe. Just processed graham crackers and melted butter and pressed it into a pie pan. The filling was the same as the recipe but I didn't have chocolate chips. Very delicious! And I loved that it didn't have added sugar. :)

Great for summertime when you don't want to turn on the oven!!

Light Key Lime Pie Bars

These are so yummy!! I have made them twice. Once for Easter and then my sister requested them for our mother's day lunch.

I recommend you double the filling ingredients.  Otherwise, the top layer is too thin. Keep the crust as is on the recipe. Use bottled lime juice if you want to save a little time. :)

Changes:
Used honey instead of stevia

Cheesy Greek Style Baked Quinoa

I found this on Pinterest and it is a keeper!! This was so filling and delicious! I had the leftovers for lunch today. I served this with oven roasted veggies to add even more good stuff to it.

My changes:
Omitted artichoke hearts.
Added 2 T. olive oil to the mixture.
Didn't use a food processor. Just stirred everything together and poured it in a dish to bake in the oven.
