Simply Tasty

Avocado Grilled Cheese & After Work Dip are two simple delights I've enjoyed recently.


Avocado Grilled Cheese

Made just like regular grilled cheese! Butter the bread and add lots of sliced avocado, pepperoni, mozzarella cheese and sprinkles of Frank's Red Hot. You can certainly make two sandwiches with one avocado, thinly sliced. The more cheese the tastier of course.

After Work Dip

I try to eat an apple everyday - I love Granny Smith apples most. Yesterday I had two apples, one plain, and then I wanted the After Work Dip so I had to have another. It's very simple:

8 oz Nonfat Cream Cheese
1 tbsp Nonfat Milk
3 tbsp Dark Brown Sugar, Packed
1/4 t Pumpkin Pie Spice
1/3 c Craisins

Place cream cheese & milk in food processor or blender. Pulse until creamy; do not over beat. Add brown sugar & pumpkin pie spice. Whirl until blended. Move mixture to small bowl; stir in craisins. Serve with apples! (I'll be adding crushed nuts next time for crunch.)
