Slow Cooker Chicken Parisienne
This was awesome! I brought my slow cooker out of hibernation and I am now a believer! I used chicken thighs on the bone and boneless chicken tenders and the chicken on the bone was definitely the winner. The chicken literally fell off the bone with a spoon, it was so tender and succulent. Love the gravy, too! It tastes like a stroganoff and with only half a cup of white wine, I didn't notice a strong wine taste at all. I am thinking that I just might have to substitute the egg noodles for mashed potatoes and the chicken for a small turkey and make this for Thanksgiving! Also, I used low-fat sour cream and fat-free cream of 'shroom soup and it was still extremely flavorful with a few shakes of onion and garlic powder. Outstanding recipe!

Pumpkin Cream Cheese Muffins
These are the muffins to make when you're aiming to impress. They look like they came straight from the bakery. Awesome. Unless you're working with jumbo muffin tins, even 1 tablespoon of filling was a little too much to fit in there. I made this with whole wheat flour, but in retrospect, would increase the white to WW ratio. I also used reduced-fat cream cheese and it worked great. Love that crumbly topping!

Mommy's Banana Suzy Q's
I think this would've been great, but reeeeally didn't want to use full fat butter AND shortening, so I used reduced-fat Blue Bonnet margarine. The end result; the frosting tasted right, but the texture was running and greasy-looking. Not appetizing, not that fluffy filling I was so excited about. Not even usable. Bummer! So, my advice is to definitely use full-fat butter/shortening if you make this.
