Friday Five Foodie Finds #2

September 30, 2011 by Amanda R DeWitt

Happy Friday Everyone!  
Seriously can’t believe it’s Friday, this week seems to have gone by so fast!  Two tests, work, homework and a couple of lazy sicky days this week..

The BF brought me soup and sprite (which I mixed with orange juice and water)

AND Happy Birthday to my little bro!!

Lil bro!  We tried to do trick candles but they didn’t work!!  I was so excited the let down LOL (how old am I?)

And here we are..back to Friday!  I’ve decided to keep doin this Friday Five Foodie Finds and I found some goodies this week! 🙂

Courtney from Sweet Tooth Sweet Life:  
Sensational Stuffed Spaghetti Squash

 I have never tried spaghetti squash before, but it looked fun to make..and I like spaghetti so why not try??

 The amount of vegetables in this dish makes me so happy! 🙂


Finding Joy in my Kitchen:
Crock Pot Lemon Garlic Chicken

Goodness how long has it been since I’ve used my crockpot??  I really need to break that thing out again!  And this just looks sensational.  This gal knows what she’s doing in the kitchen!  Check out her site for more Friday Finds (I am linking up to her site).

Lee at Fit Foodie Finds:
Van-Blueberry Protein Fro-Yo 

I haven’t made fro-yo yet but I stumbled on this recipe of Lee’s from December of last year!  I’m excited that I did because I love trying new things and since I don’t like berries plain (sad face) or even in pies (even sadder face) I think a fro-yo would be a perfect way to get those nutrients!  You also have to check out my guest post I did for this girl while she was outa town this week!   So excited for my first guest postie! 🙂

 Pumpkin Spice Orange-Soaked Muffins

Evan at Wannabe Chef
Homemade Peppermint Patties

Are you kidding me??  Homemade peppermint patties??  These make me excited for Christmas for some reason, not to mention on of my favorite snacks are the peppermint patties pieces!  LOVE.

Kristin at Iowa Girl Eats:
Caprese Baked Eggs

Hello does this not look amazing!?  Then again I am in LOVE with eggs and I have never before even heard of baking them…which makes me feel very uninformed yet intrigued…
I found this recipe today for my final fifth food and I am so happy I couldn’t find the perfect one until today! 🙂

Any favorite recipes this week?  And have YOU ever heard of baked eggs??

Have a wonderful weekend!
