TODAY on MHTV: Many homemade breakfast foods are so much better than store-bought ones. My healthier, cheaper versions of these recipes will help start your day on the right note, from my from-scratch granola, which is what I grab most mornings, to one of my favorite meals, sausage patties and pancakes. More from the show.

    Frothy Citrus Drink
    Makes 2 8-ounce servings
    If you have a little extra time or an abundance of fresh citrus, offer the boys this drink. It’s slightly frothy, with a perfect balance of sweet and sour-and of course it’s packed with vitamin C. Add a touch of seltzer for a little sparkle.
    2 grapefruits
    2 oranges
    1 lime
    3 tablespoons honey

    Cut the grapefruits, oranges, and lime in half. Juice them with an electric juicer or by hand. Pour the juice into a blender jar. Add the honey and blend on high speed for 30 seconds.

    Pour into a pitcher and chill before serving.

    Mad Hungry:

    It’s the best cooking show on the air. I have told the Hallmark Channel that we want more new episodes. Please keep viewers posted.

    Best,

    Tina

    I so agree with Tina’s comment. There must be new episodes of Mad Hungry made. I hope Hallmark Channel knows how much everyone loves the show.
