What happens when you have<br />

a craving for a warm and gooey<br />

brownie and have none in the house?<br />

Well you make one special brownie<br />

just for you. ese ingredients are<br />

usually on hand in my house and<br />

only take two minutes to make.<br />

Seriously...two minutes is all it takes.<br />

Careful though, I think this recipe will<br />

be super dangerous to have in your<br />

possession when a craving strikes.<br />

Two Minute Mug Brownie<br />

1/4 cup our<br />

1/4 cup packed brown sugar<br />

2 Tbsp unsweetened cocoa powder<br />

2 Tbsp canola or other mild vegetable<br />

oil<br />

2 Tbsp milk, coee or water<br />

In a nonstick skillet<br />

well sprayed with<br />

cooking spray, brown<br />

the chops in a single<br />

layer over moderate<br />

heat. In saucepan,<br />

put pork chops and<br />

remaining ingredients<br />

except the apple slices. Cover tightly<br />

and lower the heat. Simmer the<br />

mixture, turning chops occasionally,<br />

for about 1 hour until the chops are<br />

very tender. (Add water if necessary.)<br />

Uncover the saucepan and simmer<br />

the mixture until nearly all the liquid<br />

milk until you have a thick paste.<br />

Microwave on high for a<br />

minute, checking it after 30<br />

seconds (microwaves vary)—it<br />

will be done when it’s springy on<br />

top but still a bit gooey—like the<br />

very best brownie. Eat warm.<br />

I am a huge fan of the slow cooker<br />

and use mine several times a week. I<br />

always forget to plan for my breakfast<br />

every day and usually grab something<br />

as I am running out the door to work<br />

that usually is not good for me. is<br />

oatmeal solved that dilemma for me.<br />

evaporates into a thick sauce. Add the<br />

apples. Cover and cook for about 5-7<br />

minutes until the apples are barely<br />

tender. Makes 4 servings. 305 calories<br />

each.<br />

Vegetable<br />

Beef Soup<br />

2 cups<br />

of fattrimmed<br />

cubed lean<br />

beef<br />

2 cans (10 1/2 oz. each) condensed<br />

beef broth<br />

2 soup cans of water (2 1/2cups)<br />

e steel cut oatmeal is less processed<br />

than the quick cook oatmeal and is<br />

so much better for your body. If you<br />

need to sweeten a little, add a little<br />

honey or if you would like this a little<br />

creamier, add some milk. Also, my<br />

slow cooker cooks a little hot so mine<br />

was starting to burn. If yours cooks a<br />

little warmer, one suggestion would<br />

be to add a little more liquid to it.<br />

e rst time cooking this I cooked<br />

during the day so I could judge how<br />

they cooked in my slow cooker.<br />

is oatmeal is worth the wait.<br />
