New Recipes... and an Old One

Breck and I have been eating healthier and attempting to lose weight this last month. So, I have enjoyed trying out some new recipes.
Last night I made a Chocolate Diet Dr. Pepper Cake. It was so good! I just took a chocolate cake mix, added a can of Diet Dr. Pepper and 2 egg whites. I layered it with fat free cool whip in between. Yum!!! Breck is sitting here reading over my shoulder talking about how good it was. :)
This morning I got up and made Pumpkin Muffins that my mom gave me a recipe for. These are super easy and super delicious! You use a Spice Cake Mix, a can of pumpkin, and a cup of water. I made little mini muffins that were a perfect fall treat. Again, Breck is reading over my shoulder talking about how incredible these little muffins are! He says they are one of his new favorites! I must admit that I agree. However, next time, I might have to make bigger muffins- these little ones are too easy to just keep popping!

One thing that makes eating healthy a little bit easier is how much Breck and I both like salads. Last night we had huge salads loaded with healthy stuff! I had so much lettuce and veggies leftover that we used it for taco salad tonight! We love taco salad!

One final addition to this post that has nothing to do with food... We bought Bella a new bed today because she chewed up her old one. As it turns out, Spike thinks the bed is for him and seems to enjoy it more than Bella does.
