MMmmmm Pumpkin Muffins....

My customer Debbie, (who makes me a huge fabulous tin of almost too beautiful to eat Christmas cookies) brought me this recipe for these yummy muffins. Not only did she bring the recipe, but she baked some for samples, AND brought me the jar of dry ingredients and can of pumpkin needed to make my own!!! How NICE!!!!

So tonight to take the snowy chill out of the house I turned on my oven and made them!!!

YUMMMMmmmmYYYyyy!!! Only I added dried cranberries instead or raisins or currents (it is what I had in the house). Just look at all those cranberries!
So here is the details:

• 1 c quick oats
• 1 c buttermilk (mix w/oats and let sit 1 hr)
• 1/2 c white flour
• 1/2 c whole wheat flour
• 1/2 tsp salt
• 1 tsp baking powder
• 1 1/2 tsp baking soda
• 1 tsp cinnamon
• 1 tsp pumpkin spice
• 1 egg
• 1/4 c brown sugar
• 1/4 c canola oil
• 1/4 c molasses (I didn't have any)
• 1 tsp vanilla
• 1 can (15oz) pumpkin

Mix everything together, dry ingredients first then wet, then pumpkin.

Line muffin tin with papers and spray with Pam.

Bake 15 - 20 minutes @ 400 Makes 12 muffins

I must have used too many cranberries cuz I got 18 huge wompers!!!

Enjoy!

Sarah is on YOUTUBE!!!!!

From Chrissy's Kitchen...

Lasagna

1 lb. of sliced vegetables (yellow and green zucchini sliced thin)
sliced onion or onion powder to taste ( I use powder)
1 cup of each celery and carrots (sliced small) and one clove garlic
14 oz. of lasagna noodles
2 beaten eggs
2 cups small curd cottage cheese
1/2 cups fresh Parmesan cheese
2 TBSP. parsley
28 oz. can tomatoes
6 oz can tom. paste
16 oz. mozzarella cheese
1 tsp. sugar
1 tsp. oregano
1/2 tsp fennel seed

In skillet - saute the celery, carrots, zucchini and garlic in olive oil until softened. Stir in undrained tomatoes, t. paste, sugar, oregano, fennel seed (optional), 1 tsp. salt, 1/4 tsp. pepper. Bring mixture to a boil, Reduce heat and cover. Simmer 20 minutes stirring occasionally.

Meanwhile, cook lasagna noodles according to directions. Drain and rinse with cold water.

Combine eggs, c. cheese, shredded mozzarella cheese, Parmesan cheese, parsley and 1/4 tsp. pepper.

Grease 13 x 9 pan. Layer lasagna noodles on bottom of pan, next spread with cottage cheese mixture, next veggie sauce mixture. Repeat so there are two layers of each. You can add more mozz. cheese on top but wait until lasagna is half cooked so it does not burn but is just bubbly and slightly brown.

Bake 40 minutes at 375 degrees. Let stand 10 -15 minutes.

ENJOY!

you can substitute for other veggies like broccoli.

IT'S 3:00am SUNDAY MORNING

I CAN'T SLEEP

I WENT TO CHURCH TONIGHT (SAT.)

AND AFTERWARDS I WENT TO THE MATCHBOX

TO HELP WITH THE PUMPKIN SMASH.

THEY HAD 3 REALLY LOUD BANDS THERE,

AND A LOT OF GOOFY KIDS.

THE THING THAT I NOTICED WAS THAT

THESE KIDS WERE ACTING JUST LIKE I DID

AT THAT AGE. BUT NOW IT STRUCK ME

I DIDN'T THINK I WAS THAT GOOFY THEN.

I ACTUALLY KICKED A FEW OF THEM OUT

BECAUSE THEY WERE DANCING TO SUGGESTIVELY (nasty)
IN MY MIND I'M STILL 16,

BUT IN MY MIRROR AND MY HEART I'M AN OLD MAN.

NEEDLESS TO SAY IT WAS AN EYE OPENING EXPERIENCE.

OH YEAH ONE MORE THING:

THEY DON'T HOLD UP LIGHTERS ANYMORE

THEY WAVE THIER CELLPHONES IN THE AIR.
