I am ALL ABOUT the melon lately. While the true mark of summer is a big, juicy bite from a WATERMELON, I’ve been enjoying my fair of cantaloupe lately.
Not that I’m complaining 
Ah, cantaloupe…so delish! Nature’s perfect bowl. Just cut it in half and fill accordingly — cottage cheese, yogurt, ice cream – so many options!
The one melon I can’t stand? honeydew! ACK! I’ll tolerate it if it’s in a fruit salad, but I would never voluntarily eat it. ever.
Where do you stand on melons? Love ‘em all? Hate ‘em all? Play favorites?
What I’m about to share with you is incrediblydelicious. So delicious, it doesn’t even need a space between the two words (and that’s serious stuff!). Rich, sweet and …..drumroll… HEALTHY.
You’ll need:
1 or 2 (or three) whole grain waffles – homemade or FROZEN
Reduced fat cream cheese
Fresh strawberries
SCHMEAR your waffle with as much cream cheese as you want. Layer sliced strawberries on top – they act as a NATURAL jelly! Can you think of a more natural way to add some sugah?! Now bite. Smile. I’ll even forgive you for forgetting to swallow first – it’s that good.
Don’t forget to chew!
What’s your favorite waffle topper? I myself am normally a PB and banana gal.
…that’s what mother called me!
Name that tune.
Anyone?
There it is.
I don’t know about you guys, but every time I watched this movie as a little kid, I wanted a bite of the juicy, sweet peach flesh that James and all his friends enjoyed most of the movie (normally while breaking out in song and dance). Seriously, how could you NOT want to be part of that?
Not having any peaches around, I found the next best thing:
Just look at that juicy goodness! It even LOOKS like the flesh from the peach in the movie! I felt just like James — and I may have even broken out into song and dance (ya know, just to keep things authentic). Unfortunately however, I was unable to find a spider with a hat.
Can you think of any movies that make you crave certain foods?
