Crackers as Stuffing

Crackers as stuffing

"Ritz crackers are a great shortcut for lobster stuffing. 

Some chefs typically bake sliced bread, dry it out, and salt,

 but Ritz crackers offer a great quick and easy alternative. At the restaurant people try to guess what's in the stuffing 

and no one ever guesses Ritz crackers!"

• 1 small shallot, minced
• 2 clove(s) garlic
• 1 package(s) Ritz crackers
• 6 ounce(s) clean lobster meat
• 2 tablespoon(s) fine herbs (chives, thyme, parsley, tarragon, celery hearts)

Pumpkin Cream Cheese Bars

Skinny Pumpkin Cream Cheese Bars

• 1 box angel food cake mix- the 1 step kind
• 1 (15oz) can Pumpkin 
• 3/4 Cup water
• 1/2 teaspoon cinnamon 
• 1 (8 oz pkg.) reduced fat cream cheese
• -few tablespoons of water, to be mixed with cream cheese

I let the cream cheese soften on the counter for a while then I added it to my stand mixer & beat it with a couple of tablespoons of water until smooth. I just wanted it to thin out a little bit.

In a separate bowl, mix the cake mix, pumpkin, water, & cinnamon together until it is smooth & well mixed.

In a 9x13 pyrex dish- sprayed with PAM- add HALF of the cake –pumpkin mix. Then smooth it out with a rubber spatula. Drizzle half of the cream cheese over the top of it and take a small spatula to smooth it over the top. Add remaining cake-pumpkin mix & also the remaining cream cheese just making layers. Finally take a butter knife- stick it into the mix and go back & forth over the top of the cake making figure “8’s” - to blend it a bit.

Bake for 35 minutes at 375 degrees OR until a toothpick comes out clean.
