Diet Baked Orange Slices Recipe

The Recipe Instructions

Ingredients

1/2 cup orange juice
1/2 cup apple juice
2 tbsp honey
1/4 cup raisins
1 dash cinnamon
1 dash nutmeg
2 or 3 oranges

Directions

Mix ingedients except oranges in a saucepan. Simmer over low heat until
honey is melted about 3 minutes. Set aside. Peel oranges, and slice them
into quarters. Place oranges slices in a small baking dish, and pour sauce
over them. Broil for 6 to 8 minutes. Watch closely. You don't want slices
to burn, but the sauce should thicken slightly. Serve warm. I don't keep
honey in the house....have no idea what this is like with honey in it. I
made it anyhow and used a sugar substitute. My big kid really liked it with
a little whipping cream. (light)

"A good cook is the peculiar gift of the gods. He must be a perfect creature from the brain to the palate, from the palate to the finger's end.
"Walter Savage Landor"

"A diet is the penalty we pay for exceeding the feed limit."

"Reality check: you can never, ever, use weight loss to solve problems that are not related to your weight. At your goal weight or not, you still have to live with yourself and deal with your problems. You will still have the same husband, the same job, the same kids, and the same life. Losing weight is not a cure for life"
Phillip C. McGraw
