Thursday Weigh-in Recipe List

colby · Nov 20, 2006

OK, to help out with shaking up some of us out of our meal-time ruts, I thought I would start a thread for us Thursday Weigh-in participants, and anyone else who might like to join, to exchange some recipes.

I'll start off with a simple dessert that is very yummy, has good flavour and is very easy to make:

Lemon-Blueberry Parfiat

Start with putting some fresh or thawed bluberries in the bottom of a small bowl or parfait glass. Spoon in some low (or no) fat lemon yogurt, covering the blueberries. (I used no-fat lemon merangue yogurt the other night.) On top, sprinkle some crushed gingersnap coookies to colour and flavour.

Enjoy! :popcorn:

Brownie Cheese Cake

1 package of Brownie Mix

4 packages of Cream Cheese
1 cup sugar
1 tsp vanilla - I use a tablespoon
1/2 cup sour cream
3 eggs

Line a 13x9 pan with foil and spray the foil with spray vegatable oil stuff.
Prepare the brownies according to the directions, pour into pan and bake according to direction until just about done.

Meanwhile, beat together cream cheese, sugar and vanilla. Beat in sour cream. Add 1 egg at a time and beat on low until just mixed.

Pour cream cheese mixture over brownie mixture, bake for about 40 minutes on 350 or until middle is just set.

I have also added chocolate chips to the cream cheese mixture.

Okay.. is the idea to gain weight or lose it?
From the sounds of at least one of those recipes..gained 3 lbs just reading it.

It's supposed to be to help lose weight. Coachrenz, as good as that sounds, it's a little far from the spirit of this particular recipe chain.

I didn't suggest that you actually eat it. I make them and take them to work/school and share with my coworkers. You can actually use low fat cream cheese and sour cream and they won't even notice.

I actually cook as a kind of therapy. I am also losing weight. Have lost over 20 lbs since August.

I have made this particular cheesecake 4 times now and have only had one small slice each time. The rest went bye-bye.

Sorry if I offended anyone or was out of line. I had actually just made one last night for a pie contest at school. Mine didn't win, but, it was a crowd favorite.

Tim,

No offense taken. We've got a great group of people who are currently reporting in every Thursday, see Almity's reference, and a few of us, including me, have reached a bit of a plateau, so I thought I would shake things up a bit. I should have been a bit more explicit in my first post.
