Mmmm Banana Rama

Mmmm Banana Cupcakes for Landons birthday party. I got the recipe courtesy of Bakerella. I love her recipes. http://www.bakerella.com/monkey-business-2/

The kids taste tested them for me since I don't like banana and said they were yummo! Hopefully the other kids will like them too!

Not so good for the diet

I have been doing pretty good at sticking to my resolutions of eating better and working out. I only cheat a little here and there. All the cooking I did yesterday has done nothing to help me with my goals though...

I saw a quick tut on Skip to My Lou (http://www.skiptomylou.org/) another blog I read religiously for ideas for fried ravioli made with store bought frozen ravioli. Well I do not like ricotta cheese and that is a main ingredient in all ravioli. So the solution I came up with was to make my own. I ordered a ravioli maker/tray and got a dough recipe from Food Network. These are my results..

They turned out really good. The hardest part was rolling out the dough, I think I will get a pasta machine do the work for me next time.
