Pammy's Better for You Brownies
"(No Cholesterol, Less "Bad" Fats and More "Good" Fats) If you want "real" Brownies, this is not for you. You need all the fats and cholesterol to get those. This is a version of "Brownies" I came up with for my brownie loving hubby. He has heart problems and I am trying to come up with recipes he likes but are better for his heart. I don't qualify as a "Brownie Critic" as I am not the brownie lover in the house but I even like these. Hubby really liked them (thankfully!) and our 91 year old neighbor even thought they were very good and I am sure she has tasted alot of brownies over the years! PLEASE NOTE - I MADE THESE IN MY TOASTER OVEN. These would be fairly simple for children to make - with an adult supervising the oven. Servings depends on the size you cut them...smaller or bigger."

You may have noticed alot of my recipes are "Pammy's". This is so family and friends can know which one's are mine.
My hubby, "Davey", is very "picky" when it comes to food. He will try SOME foods but I really have to search for new ideas....I love Recipezaar! (Thanks!)
"Pammy" and "Davey" are "pet" names given by some of our family and friends. :)
"Davey" was my High School Sweetheart...I married him about 18 or 19 years AFTER I fell madly in love with him. lol! Better late than never! This is the second marriage for both of us, but, should have been our first and only.
We are huge Green Bay Packer fans. Our "Packer" room is our hang-out/TV room.
Together we have one child, a daughter, Michelle, and 3 beautiful grandchildren, Kody, Mayklin, and Nicolas. "Davey" also has a son, Robert, from his first marriage. I had 3 children from my first marriage...son, Nicolas, died at 3 1/2 months old and 2 daughters, Melinda and Sandra, died during pregnancy. "Gone but not forgotten."
We have a dog, we sort of "rescued". Her name is River. We kinda think of her as our "Toddler". She LOVES toys! She drags them all out and all over the place but she NEVER picks them up and puts them away! lol! She is pretty sure she is a "person", and thus, she thinks she is entitled to "people" rights. lol! We love her anyways. :)
I hope to post some of my Grandma Ida's recipes on recipezaar. The whole family LOVED her cooking and she loved cooking for all! Even when using her actual recipes...it never taste like when Grandma made it. It had to be that "special love" she added.
