You have hit my snack weakness. Going to get some made soon. :thumbsup:We have a winning recipe for a desert/snack.
Cinnamon buns - plant-based-fat free.
Whole Wheat, Fat Free Vegan Cinnamon Buns Recipe | HappyHerbivore.com
The changes I made were:
I made smaller buns, mini-buns, I rolled out 2 small rolls instead of one large one and cut them 3/4" thick.
I doubled the filling. Don't put the raisins in the filling, It's very hard to spread, so after you spread the filling on the dough sprinkle the raisin before you roll them.
I eliminated the greasing of the pan and instead sprinkled wheat germ on the bottom of the pan so they would not stick.
I let the rolls rise for 30 minutes before cooking them.
(The 6g of fat in the entire batch is from the whole wheat flour.)
Make sure you make enough because even the ones not on the diet will gobble them up.
Below is a picture of a double recipe. One to share and one to not share.
They also freeze well.:thumbsup:

On the road is the hardest place to stay clean of the unknown oils. Congratulations on day 13! :thumbsup:
I had to quite viewing the cooking video I got so tired. Yesterday I had a taste of teaching school for three hours - four classes. It was Career day at the school. I kept the kids interested, but the Blue Bell Ice Cream employee (with samples) and a cowboy chuck wagon catering service that also preforms stunts would have been my preference as a kid.

Six weeks ago my cardiologist agreed to temporarialy cut my cholesterol medicine Simvastatin 40mg in half to 20mg because of muscle pains. Today was my official lab test. I obtained his stipulation of LDL less than 70. I'm now officially on the lower dose and the muscle pains are gone.
Total-148
LDL-67
HDL-52
Trigl. 147
Yea Diet!
(FYI- These results were a little lower, within 6 points, of the un-official Walgreens finger stick cholesterol test, three weeks ago.)

Don...those are great numbers...congratulations! TMR
Don - Congrats on those numbers, lookin' good.
Next blood workup for me is in Dec., for Jan check-up. Really curious to see how they come out. HDL, really too low last time at 35. Have also improved in the exercise department so maybe HDL will be better. Hoping the change in diet makes a big improvement too...

Second attempt at a replacement for Friday night pizza. First was ok to me but way too much spinach for Mrs. Pa. This one is a corn polenta crust with hummus from the food processor, stir-fried spinach & cilantro and broiled mushrooms (lots), onions and tomatoes for toppings. Not a prize winner yet, but tasted pretty good. Maybe next time I will try a couple pounds of shredded cheese and see if that helps
Kind of a carppy photo - tasted better than it looks...
