Yummy Corn Muffins

I'm only brand loyal to a handful of products. White Lily flour and cornmeal are two of them!
If you're not wanting to cook low-fat muffins, use full-fat versions of the fat free ingredients, 2 real eggs and add butter.

1 cup White Lily Buttermilk self-rising white cornmeal mix (1/4 of a cup has 1 gram of fat, so 1 cup = 4 grams of fat)
1 cup White Lily self-rising flour
1 cup whole kernel corn (This has about 1.5 grams of fat.)
Eggbeaters to equal 2 eggs
1 cup fat-free buttermilk
2 tablespoons light sour cream (2.5 grams of fat per tablespoon, so 2 tablespoons = 5 grams of fat) (You can use fat-free sour cream, but the 5 grams of fat in the light sour cream really does make a difference in the texture.)

If you're not looking to cook low-fat muffins, add 3 tablespoons of melted butter

Preheat oven to 400F. Coat muffin tin with cooking spray.
Whisk together cornmeal and flour. Add corn, tossing to coat well. Make a well in the center; set aside.
In a separate bowl, whisk together Egg Beaters, buttermilk, sour cream and butter, if using.

 Pour buttermilk mixture into cornmeal mixture, stirring just until ingredients are moistened.

Spoon batter into muffin pan. Bake for about 15 minutes. Do not over bake, particularly if you are making the low-fat version!

Makes 12 muffins. Low-fat version has less than a gram of fat per muffin! These are really good to be low-fat. The full-fat version are super!!

Condensed Cheddar Cheese Soup Substitute - Regular and Reduced-Fat Versions

Although very convenient, commercially prepared condensed soups are expensive and may contain additives and ingredients you'd prefer to skip. You can use these condensed soup substitutes in dishes instead of commercially prepared condensed soups. These homemade substitutes are very easy and quick to make! They taste much better, too. I have almost stopped purchasing the canned versions. Using heart-healthy butter spreads, low-fat or fat-free milk, and low-sodium broth allows you to make these recipes more healthful. You can customize with these simple recipes by adding other seasonings such as garlic powder, celery salt, onion powder, etc. Condensed Cream of Celery Soup Condensed Cream of Chicken Substitute Condensed Cream of Mushroom Substitute Condensed Cheddar Cheese Soup Substitute 3 tablespoons butter 3 tablespoons all-purpose flour 1 cup milk 1 cup shredded cheddar cheese salt, to taste Melt butter in a saucepan over medium-low heat; add flour and whisk until s...

Dough Burgers

  Dough Burgers Dough burgers are popular in our neck of the woods. Phillips Grocery in Oxford has received national acclaim for their top-secret-recipe dough burger. I ate two while I was staying at the hospital with my dad recently! It is the nearest restaurant!  When Larry and I were newlyweds and living in New Albany, we loved going to Latham’s for their yummy version of this delicious sandwich. Several other area cities also offer well-known versions of this unique burger. Tupelo’s Johnny’s Drive-In has the "Johnnieburger," and Corinth even has a festival named in honor of their dough burger, affectionately known as “The Slugburger.” Here in our own dear Pontotoc, we love the "Wonderburger" at Butcher Block! Dough burgers supposedly originated during the Great Depression. Adding flour was a great way to stretch hamburger meat. While possibly born out of necessity, it has remained a part of the Southern diet due to its delectable taste. I’ve eaten my share ...

 Mrs. Carter's Jubilee Jumbles  Mrs. Carter's Jubilee Jumbles Many thanks to my friend, Wayne, for posting this delicious recipe! I knew when I saw it that I had to make these for the "Lost Crew." They were a hit!  These cake-like cookies are simply delicious! The brunt sugar icing is perfect! This was one of Wayne's mom's recipes. Be sure to take a look at Mrs. Carter's original recipe in her own handwriting . I love that! What a treasure! I have formatted the recipe to conform to my usual way of posting (Y'all have been able to tell I have a format, right?;) I do like Mrs. Carter's version better, though! I am sure her icing looked much neater than mine! The kids were rushing me. Lost was coming on! Thanks again for sharing this, Wayne! These are wonderful!! ½ cup shortening 1 cup dark brown sugar ½ cup regular sugar 2 eggs 2¾ cups plain flour 1 cup undiluted Carnation evaporated milk 1 teaspoon vanilla ½ teaspoon soda ½ teaspoon s...
