I make this recipe every week. My entire family loves them and I always have some on hand in the freezer. I have added to the health benifits by using whole wheat flour, dropping the sugar to 1/2 cup (I use raw sugar) and I don't do the frosting because the bar just doesn't need it. Even if you make the recipe as is you are only talking 2 Weight Watchers points. I do find a 9X13 creates a thinner bar so I do a square pan to make them a bit thicker. It does reduce your portions so WW folks need to factor that in.

Randy's Texas Tea

Reviewed: Sep. 22, 2008

I love this recipe and have used it over and over for large summer parties. A couple of things. This tea is only as good as the ingredients you put in it. You must use good quality (not from concentrate) orange juice and real lemon juice, you cannot omit the salt and make sure the glasses are full of ice when you serve. You will be rewarded with a party tea worth serving again and again.

Fresh Ginger Cookies

Reviewed: May 24, 2008

My family loves this recipe. I use 3-4tbs of ginger. It helps that you can find fresh grated ginger in a jar now in most produce sections. Yum!

Roasted Asparagus With Thyme

Reviewed: May 24, 2008

I love this recipe. Using fresh thyme just makes it. I like to put a squeeze of fresh lemon juice over it too and I sometimes dust with coarse grated parmesean cheese just before serving.

If you have a hard time finding lady fingers in your area, try this for your crust. 1 cup AP flour, 1/4 cup sugar, 1/2 tsp lemon juice, 1 egg yolk and 1/4 cup butter. Mix crust press into springform pan with wax paper. Bake at 450 for 6-8 minutes.
