      Boffo234's Sweet Potato Cheesecake

      Ingredients
      • Fat Free Cream Cheese
      • Splenda
      • 2-3 egg whites
      • 1-2 sweet potatoes
      Directions
      1. Mix the following using a mixer, 1 small container of fat-free cream cheese, and Splenda.
      2. When those two are nice and creamed together, add in some egg whites (experiment with this, but I'm willing to bet 2-3 would do). Continue to mix, while scraping the sides of the bowl to get all the ingredients to mix well. Feel free to add whatever other seasoning you would like also (cinnamon and nutmeg work well).
      3. Boil 1 or 2 sweet potatoes (yams), then mash them into a smooth consistency; add them to the mixing bowl, and mix well.
      4. When all is mixed, depending on how many carbs you want in this meal, you can add some breading in the bottom of a pie/cake pan (I did not and it turned out great). Then, pour the mixture into the pan, preheat the oven to 350 Fahrenheit. Bake at 350 for 1 and a half hours (1 1/2).
      5. Depending if you like your cheesecake hot or cold, chill in the refrigerator, or indulge in it at once!

      Chunky Apple Cheesecake

      Ingredients
      • 1/4 apple
      • 1/3 cup ground oats
      • 1 cup fat free cottage cheese
      • 1/2 scoop vanilla whey
      • 1 tsp honey
      • 1 oz milk
      Directions
      1. In a bowl combine the milk, honey, cottage cheese, and protein powder then stir until you get a nice consistency. You can use a blender to smooth it if you like, but this is not necessary.
      2. Chop up about a quarter of an apple (peeled is preferable) and microwave for 45 seconds to get a nice baked taste to it.
      3. Find a suitable container (I used a square Tupperware bottom) and spray the insides with cooking spray. Toss in about half of the ground oats and shake it around so they stick to the bottom and sides, pour the loose pieces back to be used later.
      4. Take cottage cheese mixture and pour on top of oats in your container.
      5. Take remaining oats and spread them evenly over the top of the cottage cheese mixture.
      6. Apple chunks are placed on top to complete this masterpiece.
      7. Shove in the freezer for an hour or so and its good to go ... may come apart a bit when you take it out of the container, but it tastes just the same right?
