Last night, I whipped up some Guinness Molasses Beer Bread. There was one last bottle of Guinness in the fridge, leftover from the Chocolate Stout Cupcakes, the Roast Leg of Lamb recipe, St. Patrick’s Day drinking and the random Guinness fix now and again.
One 12oz bottle was perfect to use to make it so off I went. I learned of this recipe from one of my favorite blogs here.
She got it from Elise at Simply Recipes. Here is the link to the recipe and her post.
I also did not have self rising flour and just followed the instructions to substitute and it worked out great. Dredging the thing with butter at the end was lovely as well. Certainly not low cal, but lovely nonetheless.
A really quick, easy and satisfying recipe. Give it a try!
As P and I have been cooking so much, and so many indulgent recipes, I did a search to find some more low cal options.
I stumbled across a great blog with an excellent archive of recipes. Last night we tried the Spicy Pesto Chicken, and tonight will be Mahogany Chicken.
We added some baked sweet potatoes to last night’s dish for a side and tonight will be red wine risotto…our favorite.
I do apologize for the lack of pictures in the recent posts. I was either too busy or too lazy to take them. I will definitely have some for you all soon though.
Happy Cooking!



Yes, we need pictures of all these fabulous dishes! How was the Spicy Pesto Chicken?
the beer bread sounds great, but then again anything with Guinness sounds great!
I made that Guinness bread this morning – it’s freaking awesome. Thanks for the link.
