Pancakes....

Are oh so yummy. And oh so addictive. So I was delighted when I found Fiber One Pancake mix - all you have to do is add water & they are just as good as bisquick. A serving is 3 pancakes and that's only 3 pts. I also found Joe's Market No-Sugar Added Whole Blueberry Syrup at Ukrop's - delicious!!

I bought the Hungry-Girl Cookbook but our oven has been on the fritz all week. We had it fixed Friday so now I'll start exploring it a little closer. But without the oven I was able to make Chilly Chocolate Cheesecake Bites and the Chocolate Mousse Cream Cones. The cheesecake bites were not very good, and they made a mess and were extremely difficult to get out of the ice cube tray.
BUT...The chocolate mousse cream cones are going to be a staple! And they are so easy! I made them for dessert one night and everybody liked them, with one pitfall - the Hershey Lite Syrup - it did not taste like any chocolate I know and I almost spit it out, but you don't really need that step.

Chocolate Mousse Cream Cones (adapted from Hungry Girl)

Mix one jell-o pudding snack with 1/2 cup of Cool Whip Free, put in freezer for 45 minutes or until mousse sets. Spoon into 2 flat bottom ice cream cones and serve. That easy, and really yummy. Makes 2 servings. (1 serving = 2 points). ***The original recipe says to put 1 tbsp of lite chocolate syrup in the bottom of the cone and swirl around to coat the cone, then put the cone in the freezer with the mousse. I'd skip that! ***


More WW Success - I've been steadily losing b/n .5 and 1 lb a week. Which isn't a lot but at this point it's not going to come off fast. I went shopping with my sis yesterday and was shocked to find that I'm now a size 6 and even had to go down to a small in some tops! That's 2 sizes in 2 months! And 5 sizes in a year! Yipee!!

  1. I have been meaning to try the mousse recipe. Maybe tonight. I just ordered her new cookbook that comes out next month. She is running a promo buy 2 get 24 vitatops.
