"100% your own is going to be difficult. I think we all start with a base recipe somewhere and tweak it and those tweaks evolve. There are so many ways you can personalize a cookbook muffin recipe besides just changing the fruit. Change the spices, swap brown sugar for white, add in different grains or flours - oat, ww, cornmeal - add or subtract nuts or chocolate, put a different topping on it, use melted butter instead of oil. So maybe the straightforward raspberry muffin becomes a blueberry cornmeal muffin with ginger almond streusel. I'd eat that!" - babette feasts on creating new recipes for baking

"The best way to avoid sodium is not to eat prepared foods. Fresh fruits and vegetables let you add salt when you want. I regularly see low sodium crackers and such at the market, but we don't buy them no matter the salt content. For spaghetti sauce, you can start with no salt added canned tomatoes--all the markets have them--and then add the other ingredients. It will be much better." - escondido123

"One thing that is HUGE would be to invent incredibly tasty light gluten free bread for those of us with celiac disease. Or a really great GF ciabatta." - chefathome on food goals
