Cooking for one is not that exciting to me anymore. Cooking in general is not all that exciting. I can appreciate how much people appreciate a spouse who cooks for them. My son does that for his family. I used to cook for mine, but I was often criticized and my son remembers me as not that good a cook. I was always in a hurry. Back in the day I had a lot to do.
In the tradition of my mother, I am better at desserts than general cooking. I bake. There are some easy low calorie desserts that I like to make. I am sometimes surprised that everybody doesn't make them. This time of year when I can use the oven again encourages baking.
So, peach or blueberry crisps are easy desserts. The crisp part is oatmeal, a little sugar, cinnamon, and some fat, maybe butter is my choice. Mix those together. In a baking dish (like a casserole dish, for example) I dump in some drained peaches or some frozen blueberries. Cover with the crisp mix. Bake for about 30 minutes at around 350. Easy Pea-sy Lemon Squeezy. Serve with ice cream or frozen yogurt.
