It's Mardi Gras! I love this season, it is so full of life and fun and always reminds me of home and my family. And the food. The food...yeah, not the healthiest. I have yet to actually travel home to Louisiana and last longer than three days of healthy eating before I totally cave and give in to the delicious food found at every turn. Luckily my brother and sister are usually up for a run to burn off the calories or I would be in trouble!
But, you know I believe that any food can be "healthified."
well, the jury is out on biegnets...
So, I set out to healthify some of my local favorites. I brought a homemade, whole wheat, low-sugar king cake to some hungry preschool teachers this morning...which I guess makes me a feeder now. They seemed to be okay with it.
Check out my recipes here...and share yours, please, as well!
Laissez les bons temps roulez!
