Honey Sweetened, Low Fat Banana Chocolate Chip Muffins








I am kind of in shock over how good these are without having sugar and being so low in fat and calories! I chopped up some dark chocolate for the top and it was a little messy - I'd use mini chocolate chips or mix the chocolate chunks into the batter next time.

For the oat flour I did like she said at the end - I pulverized oats in my food processor. I also used the food processor to puree a peach (I didn't have any applesauce).

I love finding a recipe that feels indulgent but isn't! The oat and whole wheat flour actually improved the flavor and texture of these muffins. They are a satisfying, healthy treat.

Pineapple Salsa / Pineapple Salsa Wraps














Pineapple Salsa

I tried this recipe out at Katie's this weekend for some tacos. It made a big batch (could be easily halved) so I was looking for a way to use the leftovers up. I put them in a tortilla with deli sliced chicken and had a delicious and satisfying lunch for about 300 calories! I'm sure ham or turkey or shrimp would be great too!
