Skinny Vanilla coffee Latte


Vanilla Latte1

About:

This drink is pretty easy to make,  It has more of a vanilla flavor and I can make it as sweet as I like.  The key to this drink is whipping the milk together. Here I used non-fat milk to a sauce pan along with vanilla extract and sugar and whisk until the milk is warm and frothy.  This was the first time I frothed milk on the stove and it turned out pretty good!!!  I’m impressed!!

Veg Gratin – Brussels sprouts and Spinach


Brussel Sprouts final

About:

A cozy little casserole filled with roasted brussel sprouts, a thick and creamy sauce and tons of crispy, crunchy homemade croutons. It’s everything I love in this world rolled up into one perfect dish.

Health benefits:

Brussels sprouts are very high in fiber, and they belong to the disease-fighting cabbage family. Indeed, they look like miniature cabbages. Brussels sprouts are also particularly rich in vitamin C, another anti-cancer agent. You will be getting a good-for-the-body food that is high in protein and low in fat and calories.

Yields: 4-5 servings
Preparation time: 10 minutes
