Anyway, #SRS or “The SRS (Surprise Recipe Swap) is a wonderful opportunity to meet other bloggers, build blogging friendships and explore others recipes.

It’s also a fun and easy way to add more exposure to your blog – increasing your traffic by getting link backs from others, being mentioned on social media networks, simply finding new followers!”

 

You are paired up with a fellow blogger at the beginning of the month.  You stalk their blog and find a fun recipe to try, then you post about making it on the 20th of the month.  Pretty simple?  NO!  OMG there are SO many YUMMY recipes to try on these blogs.  Picking one is just NOT easy.  I actually made two.  LOL  *overachiever*

 

So, this month I was paired with Erika from Learning the Ropes…One Recipe At A Time.  When I first went to check out her blog, she had these Banana Blueberry Mini Muffins that looked TO DIE FOR!  I ALMOST made those, but I thought I’d look around and see what I could come up with.  She has got some yummy recipes, that’s for sure!!  Many of which I have added to my list of things to make.  Especially some of the meatless ones.

As luck would have it, Dad gave us a can of pumpkin in the $200 worth of carb-laden foods this past weekend and, well, S isn’t a HUGE pumpkin fan.  So, when I found Erika’s Pumpkin Cream Cheese Muffins I knew that would be PERFECT!  It was low fat, simple, had whole wheat flour, and cream cheese!  Loves me some cream cheese!!  I have could seriously eat it straight out of the foil.

 

 Before I do and have none left for the muffins, I should get to the recipe:

Preheat oven to 350.  Beat pumpkin, applesauce, and egg substitute until smooth and blended.  In a separate small bowl combine flours, sugar, baking soda, and spices until well blended.

Bake in a preheated 350 degree oven for 20 to 25 minutes or until golden.  Allow to cool for 5 minutes in the pan, then remove to a rack and cool completely.

 

Store in an airtight container in the refrigerator…IF there are any left.  These smell amazing and taste FAB-ulous!  I suggest you check our Erika’s blog then join SRS (Surprise Recipe Swap) and hopefully you’ll be paired up with Erika on the next round!!
