Lazy Babies Get Cooked in Oven.....For More details, Tune into The 11 o'clock news......Yes, I am Kidding!
My great aunt Mimi really enjoyed nibbling on baby back ribs; it was always such a treat for her. Normally my aunt would always get her baby backs at a local restaurant or at someone’s home if invited and baby back ribs just happened to be on their menu. Making them herself was a different story all together, you see and I do say this lovingly; “My aunt was energetically challenged”! If it wasn’t really, really easy to do, make, prepare etc…. then she wasn’t doing it. When any type of recipe was extremely labor intensive to make she would rely on my grandmother (her sister) to make it. Which in itself was fine because my grandmother always enjoyed cooking for the family plus she was and still is the complete opposite of my aunt, my grandmother is loaded with energy. To this day at age 88 she can walk faster than most of us that are much younger than her and still spends all day in the kitchen cooking. So whenever a recipe came along that listed very few ingredients and required very little preparation time, you would actually get to see my aunt make a mad dash for the kitchen.

Wow! These look good and really simple.
My dad would go crazy for these, Julie!
And your aunt must be so adorable!
Mmmm ribs! :)
The pumpkin oatmeal is great for when you have a craving for pumpkin pie. I usually eat it as a snack rather than breakfast.
Thanks Carla, that's a great idea for a healthier snack.
Thanks Patricia, my aunt was the best, she past away about seven years ago. But she left all of us with so many great memories that keep her with us every day.
Thanks Pam, they are extremely easy to make.

This look really good and so easy - I might have to give them a try pretty soon. Always looking for fresh and easy recipes for during the week...
Thanks Jade, enjoy.
These look Scrumdelicious! I have never had Hoisin sauce...sounds yummy!
Chris, the hoisin is less sweet than any of our BBQ sauces and extremely concentrated in flavor.
Oh yum! I get sad that ribs are only mentioned during the summertime and love that you showcased them in the fall. Warm or cold, gimme some lazy babies any time of the year.
I agree Butta Buns, nothing like a Lazy Baby.
