Ingredients
1 pkg Yellow Cake Mix
2 Med over ripe bananas (mashed)

Instructions Place yellow cake mix in blender, add mashed bananas and mix well. Divide between 24 cupcake papers and bake @ 350 for approximately 22-25 minutes

Recipe Review:
I made these after dinner the other night. They were easy to make and they made the house smell soooo yummy. Next time, I will either spray the papers w/ pam or not use the papers at all- they kind of stuck. Great for breakfast or an on the go snack. Since it makes 24- you can freeze a batch for later!

WELCOME TO MY BLOG

Hello to everyone in the blog world. This is my 1st attempt at creating and keeping a blog, I am really excited about it. I have been attending Weight Watchers since September 2007. I started printing out recipes for 2 women at my WW meeting. After a short while, I started sending the recipes out via e-mail – and the list keeps growing and growing. Each Monday, I have more gals join the e-mail chain, it’s wonderful. We all send in our reviews after we have tried a new recipe. It’s a great way to network and encourage each other on our WW journey. So after so many months sending out e-mail, I have decided to add a Blog along with the e-mails. This way, I can reach more and more people who are on the WW program. Most of the post will be the e-mails that I send out, and maybe a few personal ideas and thoughts that I might have that day. If you would like to be added to my e-mail chain (I send out pictures of the recipes, as well as attachments of the recipes) – send me a message and I can add you on right away.
Enjoy and God Bless!
