Chocolate Cream Pie!

This was a picture from Thanksgiving 11. I posted the recipe in one of my earlier blog posts... For this recipe, I used semi sweet chocolate chips instead of grating unsweetened chocolate , and I lessened the sugar content to maybe 1/2 c or to taste. Also instead of 1 egg I used 3 beaten egg yolks for this recipe.

Green Smoothie

Photo: Typorama  On this year's birthday I made a trip to Lansdale to Arnold's Way cafe. I tried their famous green smoothie. People travel all over to get a hold of Arnold's Way smoothies and their only vegan menu such as their banana ice cream (no dairy)... I got this recipe from Arnold's website, so if you want to start a green smoothie revolution...pass this on to your friends especially those battling with cancer or chronic diseases. Chop and peel: 1 apple 1 ripe pear 2 ripe bananas 1 handful of greens (no stems) like spinach 16 oz water mixed with ice Mix everything in a blender until smooth. Serves 2.
