Take 5 Carrot Cupcakes

This recipe from Food & Wine was good but could be altered - I've never used so much oil, and think replacing some of it with yogurt or applesauce would not only be healthy, but actually taste better as well. I find it hard to believe this has been "tested and perfected" but maybe it has and I did something wrong. I love carrot cake more than any other! 

Cucumber-Mint Water

I've been putting cucumber and ginger in water for awhile, but wanted to try something else. This minty cucumber water is easy and refreshing....and mine was very green...good for St Pats!

Stuffed Peppers

Every Tuesday I get the Tuesdays With Tori recipe and I usually think they look good, but I almost never make any of the recipes.

Recently she presented something that looked quick, easy, and delicious, so I tried it. I used Pasilla peppers since they were all I could find. I had never heard of Pasilla before so I quickly checked them out on my phone while I was at the store. They had a one out of five heat rating so I figured they would be mild. I found them to be pretty spicy and was sure they would be too spicy for S. However in the end he declared dinner delicious.

Here is the link to the recipe.
