In the mood to munch, made a light bean, spinach and artichoke dip. This modified recipe to includes 3/4 C light cottage cheese as a filler, grated frozen lemon for the fresh lemon juice and just a bit of grated parmesan on top; for the white beans, I used white kidney beans.

For dessert, I made date bars. However, since the dates were chopped, and very dry chunks, I combined them with the required oil and an applesauce pak - heated for a minute in the microwave and then allowed to sit until the dates plumped, about an hour. The bars turned out moist and delicious - required a companion glass of milk. Possible variation - addition of 1/2 C of mini chocolate chips - next time! Here is the recipe: Date Walnut Bars
