Apple Pecan Tart
I am a sinful person (as if the Evil in my blog’s title was not proof enough). This tart is proof of my sinful ways. You see, in my heart of hearts I am a slothful person. Don’t tell anyone, but there is nothing I like better than to spend a lazy day at home in my jammies watching movies while I neglect the housework, and my adult responsibilities. I have overcome my lazy nature for the most part, my lazy days are few and...

In this case I had too many sweet potatoes. What I came up with is all...
Breakfast Bread Pudding
What happens when you combine breakfast and dessert? Answer: Magic! I had actually been contemplating the breakfast/dessert idea for a while. What spurred me into action was the email from the folks at FoodBuzz to let us know that Nature’s Pride would be holding their Bread Ambassador program again.
