Great Changes at emealsforyou.com

As the leaves are changing colors so is eamealsforyou.com changing their recipes and meal plans in response to member requests. They’ve added the nutritional values to their diet friendly recipes and meal plans (great for you Weight Watcher POINTS folks and anyone keeping an eye on calories, carbs, fiber and fat grams.) They have also added a vegan recipe category and expanded the vegetarian entrée category.

Of course, they have wonderful seasonal recipes to help you with your holiday planning, like this one for pumpkin bread. I’ll be making three loaves my children’s school’s Fall Festival and a loaf for my mom’s club new member luncheon. I think it would be wonderful with butter or whipped cream cheese, don’t you?
