Marie Callender's Honey Butter Corn Bread & Muffin Mix


Found a not spicy one. I believe i found this one at Safeway instead of Walmart this time. Again i wanted to get and try this because of the option to make it in the microwave. Then you can have cornbread even on hot days.

Simple enough to make, just add water and cook. This time it said that you should put an upside down plate in the microwave to put the cornbread on when cooking. Don't think you are suppose to on the other one...or i missed it.

Messy microwave >.<

So got it all cooked and took it out and ate it. Well only like half of it. It's crumbly. It could probably be good if you needed cornbread that is crumbled. Just wasn't that good to just cut a piece and eat. Was hard to butter too.


I normally use Jiffy for my cornbread. So when i compare the two, i prefer Jiffy. I also normally make cornbread muffins instead of one large one because then it's more likely to get eaten in my house.

All in all, I probably won't be buying this again. I like trying new things, so since i tried it, i know i don't like it.

Bacon Egg Cups


Followed this recipe: http://www.fatgirltrappedinaskinnybody.com/2011/04/bacon-egg-cups/

For the love of bacon and all that is yummy!!
I've seen the pictures for this for some time and finally decided to make it because we had bacon left over. I didn't have enough to make to the full recipe, i had 11 half slices of bacon and 3 eggs. There was enough for making 4 cups and i had 3 half slices of bacon left.

It was actually really good. Sure it's just eggs and bacon(and cheese), but cooking it in the oven just seems to give it a completely yummier taste. I maybe could of cooked it for a tiny bit longer, it wasn't raw, but some of the bacon seemed like it could of been cooked more to be crispier. The eggs were fluffy. I will make these again when i have more bacon and eggs again. Maybe not even the full 12 but making the 4 again or just 2 of them. I pretty much was full after 2 of these(and the extra slices of bacon i cooked lol).

Didn't hear from my brother on what he thought of it, but my mom liked it.

two ingredient lemon bars (cake)



These two ingredient cake things are just awesome and easy to make. I did one that was pineapple based, i think i forgot to write about that one.

Anyways, this is what i followed: http://rachelschultz.com/2012/09/23/two-ingredient-lemon-bars/

The sounds of just using 2 things to make some sort of flavored cake is great. For those who aren't that great at baking can make these, or if you just want something simple and fairly quick to make. I also love angel food cake so having different flavors of it is really nice. I like to think of angel food cake as magical, so i don't really feel like looking up as to why mixing the mix with pie filling turns into cake lol.

Now this recipe calls them lemon bars, then state they have a cake texture. I call this more of a lemon cake, or just lemon angel food cake. I also think the picture they have looks a little different than how mine turned out. Maybe it really does maybe it doesn't, i don't really know, hard to tell just judging from the pictures. I just think theirs looks fluffier than mine. Since there's no picture of it in the pan, hard to judge.

With not comparing it to trying to be a lemon bar but just how it is with the end result, I could eat this whole thing. It still has an angel food cake taste to it, with a not super strong lemon taste to it.

Here's some pictures of it being made...

Here's all it took to make.

In the process of mixing.

after being in the pan

After it came out of the oven. I read some people said that it puffed up a lot while cooking, i didn't check while it was cooking, so i don't really know on that.

This is with the powder sugar on it and with my piece taken out for my first picture.


Some one said that they tried it with a berry pie filling and it worked also. So possibly a lot of pie filling will work like this. I want to see what other pie fillings i can find to see if anything intrigues me to try it myself.
