Yummy Recipes

I tried two yummy and mostly healthy recipes recently. We were BBQing and looking for a dessert we could put on the grill. Grilled Peaches. Yum!

Cut peaches in half. Put frozen blueberries in the middle. If they fall out, it really doesn't matter. Sprinkle brown sugar (I did 1 tsp., the recipes calls for 2) and lemon juice (1 tsp.). Wrap it up in tinfoil and put on the grill 15-18 minutes. It really does take a long time to get cooked. We ate ours with vanilla ice cream.

Another recipe is low fat artichoke dip. Mix 1 15 oz. jar of artichokes, rinsed if in oil, 1 cup of plain yogurt (it's supposed to be greek. I didn't have any so I just used regular and it was a little runny.), 3/4 cup shredded parmesan cheese. Top with bread crumbs (I didn't). Bake at 375 for 20-25 min. I just made mine in our toaster oven since I was only making it for myself and didn't want to heat the house up for just that.
