THAMES ROAD NEWS
cooking with memories
BY DEBBY WAGLER
MUFFINS CAN MAKE A GREAT BREAKFAST OPTION WHEN
IN A HURRY. I AM LEARNING THAT NOT ALL MUFFINS ARE
THAT GREAT FOR YOU SO I HAVE TRIED TO ADAPT AN
OLD RECIPE AND TO MAKE IT SOMETHING QUITE
HEALTHY. IT DOES COME OUT A BIT HEAVIER THAN SOME
TYPES OF MUFFINS BUT THE FLAVOR IS TERRIFIC. THE
RECIPE IS WRITTEN ON A SHEET OF PAPER THAT HAS
FADED AND BEEN SPLATTERED AND I ACTUALLY HAD TO
GUESS AT QUANTITIES DUE TO SMUDGES. I'VE NOW
REWRITTEN THE RECIPE, ALTHOUGH I STILL KEEP
REWORKING THE INGREDIENTS AS I FEEL ADVENTUROUS.
Morning Glory Muffins
Step 1: Mix together in a large bowl:
1 cup oatmeal
1 cup flour
1/4 cup all bran
2 tsp baking soda
2 tsp cinnamon
1/2 tsp salt
3/4 cup white sugar
Step 2: Mix together the following in another bowl:
2 mashed bananas
3 grated carrots
1/2 cup each of dates, raisins, walnuts and coconut
2 apples grated
Add to step 2:
3 beaten eggs (or 1 egg and equivalent to two egg
whites in a container)
1 cup unsweetened applesauce (this is completely
substituting for oil)
2 tsp vanilla
Gently stir step 2 into first bowl. Don't overstir. Fill
greased muffin tins 2/3 full and bake muffins at
350degF for about 20 minutes. Makes about 18
smaller sized muffins.
Freeze muffins and pull them out as you want one to
make them a treat throughout a couple of weeks!
Remember to play with a recipe to suit your
fancy and/or health concerns. Add high fibre cereal by
substituting for some of the flour, adjust fruits to your
liking. A good rule of thumb is to try to maintain the
same quantities of wet or dry ingredients. If you do
increase moist ingredients like banana or apples it just
tends to make a heavier product --but still good!

Clean, safe
drinking water
is up to you.
If you serve your community, you have
a responsibility to serve your community
clean drinking water.
Everyone has a stake in clean drinking water. Our families and
friends; our clients and customers. Under Ontario's new Drinking
Water Systems Regulation, owners of drinking water systems now
must comply with strict water quality and operating standards.
If you own or operate a business or service facility of any kind that
serves the public and relies on its own source of water, then you are
affected by the regulation.
Mobile home parks, campgrounds, small hotels, gas stations and places
of worship are some of the establishments subject to the regulation.
So are children's camps, schools, hospitals and any social care facility.
In short, any place where the general public has access to a drinking
water system, such as a washroom, drinking water fountain or shower.
You are also subject to the new regulation if you own or operate
a system that supplies drinking water for a seasonal or permanent
community of six or more residences.
We all share the same water resource. Small drinking water systems
now join municipalities, industries and the agricultural community
in doing their part to protect the quality of Ontario's drinking water.
Find out what you need to do as a responsible
provider of clean, safe drinking water.
