Perfect mix of sweet and salty! Pretzels add crunch and bring out the peanutty flavor of the peanut butter.

Green beans are braised in skillet with orange juice and chicken stock, and served with toasted butter-maple pecans. Make a double-batch because your kids will become veggie lovers once they try this.

A moist cake, that has the kumquat hint. it wasn't sour, but if you want that taste, then add more kumquat. :)

Applesauce replace the fat and keeps the cake moist.

This recipe was the first-place winner at the Ventura country fair. Moist and delicious with a tangy frosting and it freezes very well.

Turned out very well. I seasoned the chicken on both sides with salt and pepper before dipping in the flour and egg. The thin sauce added a nice tang. I also added a teaspoon of cornstarch blended in water to the sauce and cooked for about one minute to thicken up the sauce a bit.

These apple and oat muffins are so moist, and they are delicious too, good for breakfast or a tasty snack.

Classic banana bread combined with plump juicy blueberries. Turns out moist and fluffy with rich banana aroma with big juicy bursts of blueberries (I used fresh berries) when eating. This takes banana bread to the next level.

There's not much better than smelling the house filled with the aroma from cinnamon buns. These buns are nearly identical to the buns purchase from the Cinnabon chain of stores.

Chocolate shouldn't go together with "low-fat" but this decadent recipe will change this fact!

A German take on pancakes. Very flexible, toss in some apples or other fruit and your children or hubby will love you.

Classic way to grill and serve a great sirloin steak. The mushroom red wine sauce had a perfect balance and was very easy to prepare. I grilled my steak in a cast iron grill pan to medium-rare and served with a stuffed tomato and a green salad.

Cheesy, moist and delicious! These biscuits are certainly one of the best ones we have ever had.

Herb and goat cheese stuffed crepes with a reduction sauce. Very sophisticated
