Skinny Funfetti Cupcakes

Easy, yummy recipe here!

Cupcakes. They are everywhere nowadays. If you crave cupcakes, sans calories but keeping flavor, these are for you!

Made them for the book club, a few girls are health conscious and jumped at the mention of a "skinny" cupcake. As I was making them they cancelled, but I shared the yumminess with friends (and ate many myself!)

There's 4 ingredients, gotta love that! Easy to make. The one concern is the recipe states 24 are made, but I came up with 12...hmm. 

The are the most FLUFFY and MOIST cupcakes I've ever had! It's like little air bubbles were baking right in (thanks Sprite Zero!). The frosting is equally as delicious. I may never may cupcakes the old way again! You will NOT regret making these!

Difficulty Level: 0 woo!

Yum Factor: 4-5 :)

Avocado Egg Salad

Avocado Egg Salad Recipe

Recipes for variations on this avocado egg salad have been traveling around Pinterest for over a year. I always pin them because they look delicious, but many of them call for green onions or lemon or lime juice. Being a single gal, I just don't stock those things, nor do I see the value of purchasing them for 1 tablespoon!

Back to the recipe, I originally saw it on a Weight Watchers recipes blog. This recipe is the easiest I've seen of all the incarnations. What's even better is that the link above has a link to cook the perfect hard-boiled eggs, Martha Stewart style. The link is also here. It is magical!

There are few ingredients in this recipe, which is a plus on the pocketbook. I used Trader Joe's Wasabi Mayo which provides a nice zip and omits the need for the curry. I did add a splash of taco seasoning in place of the curry, but in retrospect it wasn't necessary. Very yummy and when served with boneless skinless chicken breast, it becomes a super protein and filling meal. I would make this again!

Difficulty Level: 2-3. Peeling hard-boiled eggs is time consuming!
Yum Factor: 4 MmmMmm!
