I was thinking last night that if people don't care for the lemon that maybe small oranges could be substituted instead. We will have to try it out! :)
 
For those who don't have the medium scoop, you should get it! It saves a lot of hassle. I had to send back my large scoop and I miss it so bad.

Yummy!!!!!!!I had these at a cluster meeting last night and they were SO GOOOOOOD!! There were two kinds one from a jiffy mix and one from Betty Crocker, and the Betty Crocker was better.

They were so moist and delicious and had been sitting out for over an hour for the meeting, and they were still so good. Not rock hard, and not undercooked. Perfect. :love:

The sweetness and the tartness of the lemon were a perfect balance. I would have eaten them all because I hadn't eaten dinner but I restrained myself. I will make my own and eat them all!!! It's that time of the month for me when sweets are so important!!! :cry: :p :yuck: :rolleyes:

I have been pregnant three times in the past three years, I forgot what cramps felt like and how horrible this is. Ok sorry TMI!! LOL :sing:

OMG>..I SooOO love the Prep Bowls...DEFINITELY worth getting the whole set. I often just take 2 or 3 to a show, but at home...I've been feeling like I should get another set even before this recipe!

I suggest to guests to make the individual 'omlet' in them in the microwave, everyone loves that tip. I say "mix one egg, add cheese and other of your favorite omlet ingredients. Stack them in the fridge, and in the morning when the kids come down for breakfast before school - or anytime- they can take it out, remove the lid, micro for one minute...THAT'S much healthier than a POP TART! "

And I love the tip about using the Chef's Tongs to remove it from the microwave!

I use them to store leftovers, melt butter/chocolate in micro, measure, --everyone loves the Batter Bowls...so they'll love these mini versions!
:love:

Hello, I'm Carol, and I am a Prep Bowl Addict! There, I have said it. So far, I have 3 sets, and can't keep them around. 2-3 are in my kit, the rest migrate into the garage, others grow feet and leave the house! The ones I can manage to hang on to sit on the counter in a stack, and they are soooooo handy. One of the few PC products I have multiples of! Can't wait to get the pinch bowls.

Now back to my Prep Bowl Addicts meeting!!
