Baked Banana With Cinnamon & Honey (Low Fat / Healthy)

Posted by Wendy-Bob  

Delicious! I had an overripe banana sitting around and was hopeful it could be saved, and this recipe did it. I put the parcel on an oven try and I'm glad I did as somehow the honey managed to leak out and would have made a huge mess of the... — Talicca Feb 7, 2008

Bob's Red Mill Easy Gluten Free Banana Bread

(1 person found this helpful) Posted by GreenFish  

Wonderful! I used a standard commercial flour mix and it was simply delicious. Moist and tender with a lovely banana flavour. You'd hardly know it was gluten free! I used half Splenda and half sugar as I didn't have any brown sugar handy, and... — Talicca Jan 29, 2008

Brown Rice and Lentil Casserole

(21 people found this helpful) Posted by ladypit  

It doesn't get much easier and cheaper than this! I threw in a punnet of grape tomatoes that were about to go off in my fridge, and they were an excellent addition. I did find the flavour a tad blah though, I thought it needed some jazzing up.... — Talicca Jun 22, 2007

Kelly's Favourite - French Toast in a Bowl - for One or Two

Posted by Diana #2  

Talk about fast and easy! Similar to a bread pudding in taste, but not as sweet, and seriously delicious. Unable to eat wheat, I used a commercial gluten-free bread and gluten-free puffed rice for the cereal, plus I subbed sultanas for the... — Talicca May 10, 2007

Sweet Potato Pecan Pancakes

(1 person found this helpful) Posted by Geema  

Delicious! I made them gluten-free using a standard commercial flour mix (Orgran), and they came out wonderfully (they needed a touch more liquid, but that was probably the flour type I used). I halved the recipe, used fat-free milk and splenda,... — Talicca May 6, 2007

Oatmeal Cottage Cheese Pancakes

(2 people found this helpful) Posted by bramble  

These were great, not as good as "real" pancakes but a good compromise on healthy and tasty, and they were very filling. Like someone else suggested, I would say this makes two servings rather than one. Next time, I think I will add some splenda... — Talicca May 6, 2007

Addicted To Porridge

Posted by catxx  

Wonderful recipe! I had some polenta sitting in my cupboard and was looking for an interesting use for it. The porridge was thick, creamy and satisfying, and made a bigger serve than I thought it would. I served mine topped with fresh sliced... — Talicca Apr 2, 2007

Wasabi Salmon Cakes

(1 person found this helpful) Posted by its_me_susan  

These were surprisingly good for something so simple. I'm allergic to wheat, so used gluten-free packaged breadcrumbs. I guessed at the amount of salmon and used a 400g can, and like others, used more breadcrumbs than the recipe called for (I... — Talicca Dec 16, 2006

Sticky Onion Marmalade Sausages

(1 person found this helpful) Posted by Ozzy  

This was great, especially for such a simple, no-fuss kind of recipe. I didn't have merlot, but just subbed another red wine I had hanging around, and it turned out great. I used kangaroo sausages, and the sweetness of the balsamic vinegar and... — Talicca Dec 1, 2006

Gluten Free Melt-In-Your-Mouth Shortbread

(10 people found this helpful) Posted by Nana Lee  

Outstanding recipe! These really taste just like wheat-based shortbread, and they do just melt away in your mouth. It really doesn't scale well (I did originally try halving the recipe, but I ended up with super-thin shortbread wafers), but I... — Talicca Nov 24, 2006

Easy Chicken Satay Peanut Curry

(2 people found this helpful) Posted by amanda l b  

I made this on the stove-top using pork instead of chicken, and it came out wonderfully. I browned some cubed pork in a pan with the onion and a little peanut oil, then whisked the sauce ingredients together in a bowl and added it to the pan.... — Talicca Sep 10, 2006

Flourless Peanut Butter Cookies

(1 person found this helpful) Posted by Bev  

Not that this recipe needs another five-star rating, but I just couldn't resist! Having been put on a no-grains, no-dairy allergy elimination diet by my Dr, I had despaired of finding cookies that I could have. Needless to say, I was delighted... — Talicca Aug 27, 2006

Pareve Brown Rice Pudding

(2 people found this helpful) Posted by h_metts  

This was fantastic, rich and creamy and pretty simple to make. If you have to boil the rice first it can take a while, but thankfully I had some brown rice leftover from an earlier meal. I would suggest being super careful adding the hot liquid... — Talicca Aug 27, 2006

Coconut Peach Muffins

Posted by Roosie  

I won't rate these seeing as I made so many changes to "healthy them up", but I found the combination of peaches and coconut to be lovely! I used non-fat vanilla yoghurt instead of the butter, whole-wheat flour instead of the white, and low-fat... — Talicca Jul 30, 2006

Apple-Cranberry Wheat Muffins

Apple and cranberry make a fantastic combination! These were moist, tender and very tasty. I did play with things a little, using all whole wheat flour (no white), lowfat vanilla yoghurt instead of the oil (applesauce would probably work even... — Talicca Jul 10, 2006

Crock Pot Peanut Chicken

Posted by Charmie777  

I also found this really, really salty, but then I don't generally have a lot of salt in my diet so perhaps I'm just not used to it. I will definitely cut down on the soy sauce next time, or find a salt-reduced one. I used a reduced-fat peanut... — Talicca Jul 8, 2006

Chicken and Red Pepper Stir Fry

(2 people found this helpful) Posted by evelyn/athens  

I found I didn't care for the taste of the orange rind and ended up picking it out. I'm still giving the recipe 5 stars though, as the sauce is lovely and matches with the chicken and red pepper perfectly. I had no pepper flakes, so instead I... — Talicca Jul 8, 2006

Whole Wheat Cinnamon Apple Pancakes

(1 person found this helpful) Posted by A Messy Cook  

Delicious, light (especially for whole-wheat!) and really simple. Personally, I like my pancakes a little sweeter so will probably use a tad more honey, or add a bit of brown sugar next time, and increase the cinnamon (I love cinnamon). I served... — Talicca Jun 30, 2006

Curried Sweet Potato Fritters (Pancakes)

Posted by KITTENCAL  

Very tasty! Crisp on the outside, moist and tender on the inside. Love the slightly exotic curry flavour! (Didn't have any cayenne, but will definitely add it next time) I did healthy them up a bit, subbing whole-wheat flour, leaving the peel... — Talicca Jun 9, 2006

Veggie Frittata Muffins - Low Carb

What a fantastic recipe! Fast to make, high in protein, and best of all, they freeze and re-heat really well in the microwave! I threw a couple in my lunchbox today with a salad for a quick and tasty lunch. I left out the parmesan cheese to cut... — Talicca May 29, 2006
