Lemon Curd Crescents

I don't know about you but I am itching for the tastes and smells of Spring and Summer.  So far the weather has not given me either.    On Friday P & I went to the Linden Hills Co-op for basic necessities.  Walking through the fresh vegetables and finding ramps I was now looking for things to make to bring a little bit of Spring and Summer inside the house since Mother Nature was definitely not in any hurry to give this to us outside.    I bought some ramps (recipe to come later) and a Key Lime Pie for our desert that night.   Thinking the taste of the citrus would help cure us but it only left us wanting more.

This gloomy cold May (yes I did say May) morning, I needed that Summer fix.  Rooting through the fridge and cupboards I found two items, crescent rolls and lemon curd.   So here is my two ingredient easy peasey breakfast treat.



Lemon Curd Crescents

1 can crescent rolls (I used Immaculate Rolls since they are the DFI friendly)
1 jar Lemon Curd (feel free to make your own I just had this on hand)

Preheat the oven per instructions on the crescent roll (I preheated at 350)

Open the crescent rolls and roll each one out flat.  Put a teaspoon of lemon curd on each lightly spreading it over the surface.  Roll each crescent and put them on a parchment lined baking sheet. (This is important as the lemon curd will run a little out the sides.)   Bake per package instructions.  (Mine were done in 12 minutes)

Serve warm.

HFCS - Stop from relabeling to Corn Sugar

http://blogs.consumerreports.org/health/2011/03/high-fructose-corn-syrup-is-not-corn-sugar-corn-refiners-association-.html?EXTKEY=I91CONL&CMP=OTC-ConsumeristRSS Please read the link above.   I am asking people to contact their Senate and House Reps to stop this from happening.    This will cause a lot of issues with people who have DFI as we can have corn sugar but not HFCS.   This will mean we may never really know what is in our food.  Let's hope the FDA will reconsider this proposal.  Thanks is advance for your help to stop this.

HFCS Rant

Since being diagnosed with DFI, I have been reading labels more closely.   Not to say I didn't before but now I am reading labels on things you would never suspect HFCS to be added in.   So here is my rant.   Why does HFCS need to be added to beef consome, saltine crackers, cream of mushroom soup???   Was this how the recipe was intended??   I have made beef consome and mushroom soup from scratch and never once did the recipe call for HFCS.    Why does it need to be added to Crystal Light drink mixes?   Isn't this suppose to be a low calorie drink that encourages people to drink more water.   How can this be helpful?   I really hope the food industry becomes wise to exactly what adding this to products that don't need it is doing to our diets.    Yes there is some personal responsibility and we should be informed consumers.  BUT COME ON!!   I would have never guessed HFCS would be in these items until I really read the label.   I even have to ask about the coating on my med
