Greek Yogurt Cheese Cake Bites

Published on by lacylynnetteLeave a comment

I don’t know what has been going on but I have been CRAVING cheesecake (and peanut butter!) and these are a nice healthier alternative. Crush up some graham cracker and mix with a touch of water to help it mash and clump together on the bottom of a cupcake baking cup. Mix together some vanilla Greek yogurt with zero sugar cheesecake pudding powder and scoop over the graham cracker crust. Mix up some PB2 (or use really peanut butter) and add a spoonful on top of cheesecake yogurt. Spoon some no sugar added pie filling cherries on top and place in freezer for a bit to set. A great snack in between meals with the added benefit of getting in some protein as well. I don’t really measure anything so just work through each step until it looks/ tastes good to you!

Homemade Bagels

Published on by lacylynnetteLeave a comment

This easy recipe was amazing! I will call out that in the above picture, I missed showing the baking powder and 1 egg used.

  • 1 cup Flour
  • 1 Cup Cottage Cheese (any %, I used 1%)
  • 2 Teaspoons Baking Powder
  • 1/4 cup Shredded Cheese (you could go with more here)
  • 1 Egg
  • Everything Bagel Seasoning
  • Fresh Jalapeno (if desired)

Mix the cottage cheese, flour, baking soda, and shredded cheese together, kneading into a ball. Some mention blending the cottage cheese but I did not do this. Separate into 4 portions and form into little bagels. Brush the tops with some egg and season with everything bagel seasoning and a sprinkle of additional cheese. I added fresh slices of jalapeno to the top of two of them (I love spice!). Bake at 375 degrees for 25 minutes. I didn’t use parchment paper which was mentioned in the various videos where I have seen these made and they still turned out amazing! Nutrition is below per bagel. I did not even find myself needing butter or cream cheese on mine.
