Spaghetti Squash

I am attempting to come up with frugal meal ideas on the heels of the new $4 fast food meal ads that have been going around; to try to prove a point that you can eat so much better with $4 or less! I don't have the exact breakdown to this; however the ingredients are super simple: medium spaghetti squash (less than $2; in season), lentil sprouts (sprouted in my kitchen) & 2 T parm cheese. You do the math! lol I did add a bit of butter to it as well; about 1T.

Below is the yummy picture. Did not do anything special; cooked the squash & then mixed everything together.

Delicioso!

Paleo pumpkin cupcakes

This isn't my recipe....I got it (http://mywholefoodlife.com/2014/09/07/paleo-pumpkin-pie-cupcakes/) and made them tonight....without the topping since not a real fan of frosting. My husband wasn't too keen on the idea and typically I don't go overly crazy when it comes to pumpkin; however the driving force behind making these tonight was due to having two roped bananas ready and willing to be whipped up into something yummy!

After baking, they cooked for about 20-30 mins, then I popped them in the fridge for a while...then finally removed from the cupcake pan. They. Were. Wet. Moist if you will. The liner was drenched. 

Despite the soggy cupcake liner, the cupcakes were actually quite delicious. Will have to add the nutritional information to this blog tomorrow. 

Glad I could share! 

Enjoy, 

Nancy
