Recipes!

I've decided to make a recipe box. I had a binder where I put recipes, but I decided that wasn't cute. When I was little, I LOVED reading my mom's recipes on cute index cards so I decided that, although I don't have any adorable recipe cards (does anyone know where they sell them?!), I do have index cards, and I'd love to have the same sort of system. I think there's something just... so traditional and cute about having your recipes on little cards. You can give them to others to borrow, you can keep them in a nice tidy box... overall just really adorable.

So I've added all the recipes I have to this box (90% of which I haven't actually attempted haha). I color-coded them, too... pink is desserts (duh they need their own category), yellow is entrees, green is appetizers, and orange is random stuff... haha as of now, orange solely consists of really yummy-sounding cocktail recipes I've stolen from Cosmo and other similar places. Mehhh.

Do you guys have any recipes to share?? I'd love to add to my collection! ... Keep in mind that I don't like any chunky foods. Haha.

Here's a SUPER simple one... I probably shouldn't even call it a recipe, it's that easy. It's basically a take on an ice cream sandwich... just like, a thousand times better for you and I personally think it tastes better:

Graham Cracker Ice Cream Sandwich
Ingredients:
Low-fat graham crackers
Low-fat or sugar free Cool Whip

Um... that's basically it. Put one or two spoonfuls of cool whip in between two graham cracker halves. Freeze them in a big Tupperware containers, and enjoy!

Best part: They're 100 calories. Compare this with your average ice cream sandwich which is 240 calories. They're also very low in fat, since you're using low-fat stuff... only about 4-5% of your total saturated fat. The average ice cream sandwich (At least the ones I found online) are 25% of your total saturated fat. Soooo yummy, too, and very light. Perfect for summer :) The only problem is actually only eating one at a time.
