Recipe=Cream of Wheat Bread

Well, as a WW I really really try hard to get/eat what I want without breaking any WW "rules" and trying to get my weight off. Some "tricks" work and some don't. I try really really hard to stay away from the "bad" carbs. So, yeah, I really don't eat bread. Well, I was looking one day a year or so ago and found this GREAT recipe for bread and I don't even have to use flour. I use Cream of Wheat! Sounds weird, but it tastes soooooooo good. If you are one that is also trying to stay away from the "bad" carbs, I suggest you really give this a try. It is really really good and has absolutely NO FLOUR in it. Yes, you still have to eat it in moderation, but you will get your bread fix. My kids really like this too. In order to get my Cream of Wheat/farina for less expensive, I get mine at Winco in the bulk section. Anyway, here you go........

Cream of Wheat Bread

1-2/3 cups of room temperature water
2 teaspoons of salt
4 cups of Cream of Wheat/farina
1 teaspoon of sugar
2 teaspoons of yeast

Put all ingredients in breadmaker in order listed. Use Basic setting for bread, and medium or dark for crust.

Makes 12 servings.

**I haven't tried it, but I think you can probably get away with adding just a pinch of sugar for the yeast instead of a whole teaspoon. I know we want to keep away from the sugar, but it is needed for the yeast here and it is really a minimal amount.

Thanks to the person who shared this years ago.

I also have other variations of this if you are interested. I have cinnamon rolls, Italian herb bread, directions for hand-made bread, rolls, and pretzels. Just shoot me an e-mail and I will get you the directions, if you would like.

Thanks!

Recipe=Lasagna in Slow Cooker

This is really really tasty and very simple. It is one of our favorite recipes. Okay, here goes...

6 dry lasagna noodles (uncooked). I use whole wheat.
1 pound of the leanest hamburger you can find (brown and drain)
1 teaspoon Italian Seasoning
28 ounce jar of spaghetti sauce (I use Hunt's in the can)
1/4 cupof water
16 ounce tub of fat-free cottage cheese
2 cups of shredded fat-free mozzarella cheese

Instructions:
Break the noodles in half. Place half the noodles in bottome of greased 4-quart slow cooker. Sir Italian seasoning into ground beef. Spread half of the ground beef over the noodles. Layer half of the sause and half of the water over beef. Layer half hte cottage cheese over sauce. Layer half the mozzarella cheese over the cottage cheese. Then, you repeat the layers.

Cover and cook on low heat for four to five hours. Do not cook more than five hours or you might have some realy soggy lasagna noodles.

** Once again, this is not my own recipe. I found this one a few years ago on the WW message boards. Much thanks to the person who shared the recipe, as my family and I really enjoy it. I figured this out on weightwatchers.com using the recipe builder at 6 points for a total of 6 servings.

Thanks!
