Better Banana Walnut Bread

Thu, 28 Jan 2010 16:16:26 -0500

I love banana bread! Unfortunately, it is always loaded in fat when you buy it or follow traditional recipes. There are tons of low fat recipe options out there but the always take out the walnut. Removing them will take away from those "scary numbers" we all watch; however, walnuts are such a rich source of nutrition that they are worth keeping. Side Note: Many people use "Splenda" as a sugar substitute, if you get an icky aftertaste try Stevia, like "Truvia". I personally prefer "Sun Crystal", a mix of natural sugar cane and stevia. Ultimately, it's your choice. -- posted by Southern Kitchen Gardener

Date Balls

Thu, 28 Jan 2010 16:39:55 -0500

Alternative version of my recipe for Algerian Date Balls that calls for anise in the recipe. My husband and I don't care for the anise, so I tweeked the recipe and used the rice crispy cereal version. my husband loves them. You may also decide to roll into flaked coconut tinted with food coloring for a festive look instead of the powdered sugar. :) Prep time includes cooling time. -- posted by Kamsgrl

Roasted Pork Chops With Caramelized Quince

Fri, 29 Jan 2010 18:01:23 -0500

This is a meal suitable for a cool, autumn dinner. The pork chops turn out moist and savory and pair nicely with the sweet and somewhat tangy flavor of quince. I like to eat a slice of quince with each bite of pork chop, as the combination reminds me of harvest season. If you are unable to find quince, two large apples would substitute well (any tart variety such as Macintosh, Granny Smith or Cortland). -- posted by MarthaStewartWanabe

Power Packed Purple Smoothie

Mon, 01 Feb 2010 10:24:14 -0500

I've gotten really into having smoothies for breakfast lately. They taste great and it helps me get in some great nutrients to start my day. This one contains a couple ingredients that will make you think "What??!!" Trust me on this one. The cottage cheese adds lots of protein and gives the smoothie a creamy texture. Spinach adds lots of vitamin A and you can't even taste it (really, I promise!). ___________________________________________ Recipezaar does not have light soy milk in their nutrition database and therefore, the nutrition data is incorrect. When I make this smoothie with Silk's light plain soy milk it has: 372 Calories, 6g Fat, 60g Carbs, 7g Fiber, 24g Protein, 1,082mg Potassium, 42% RDA Calcium, 25% RDA Magnesium, 44% RDA Vitamin A, 63% RDA Vitamin B-12, 33% RDA Vitamin B-6, 92% RDA Vitamin C, 30% RDA Vitamin D -- posted by muncheechee

Lemoniest Lemon Squares

Mon, 01 Feb 2010 23:08:24 -0500

These are the best lemon bars I've ever tried. They have a fabulously buttery crust, a not too sweet or too tart curd-like lemony filling, and a thin chewy top. The recipe is from San Francisco pastry chef Emily Luchetti's cookbook, "Classic Stars Desserts". With more than a cup of fresh lemon juice, the lemon flavour is really pronounced, the filling sets up real well and the dusted sugar makes for a beautiful presentation. NOTE: The squares can be made a day in advance, covered and refrigerated. Bring to room temperature before serving. Dust with confectioner's sugar before serving. -- posted by blucoat

This recipe came from a choir member more years ago than I wish to remember. It is the only date nut bread my family will eat. I'm putting it here for safe keeping as I have worn out several recipe cards for this one. While the ingredients may be the same as other breads, the preparation method is totally different. It will make 2 - 3 standard sized loaves and sometimes it may take a bit longer than the stated bake time. Prep time includes cooling time before baking. Cooking time includes the boiling and cooling time during prep. -- posted by Aubergine910

Harissa-Spiked Houmous

Wed, 03 Feb 2010 10:38:58 -0500

This recipe is delicous -- for a nosh, cocktail party or just an evening snack! I love these kinds of appetizers because they don't take much time, this one is vegan -- so almost anyone can eat it. I like to serve them with Pita Crisps: preheat oven to 375ºF. Split 6 pitas hrizontally into circles, then cut each circle into 6 triangles. Lay them in a single layer, rough side up, on 2 or 3 baking sheets. Use a pastry brush to brush triangles with olive oil, then sprinkle with fennel seeds and a pinch of sea salt or instead of fennel and sea salt use Mrs Dash salt free seasonings. For example: Table Blend, Original or Garlic & Herb, these have a flavor all their own -- try it you might like it. These can be made about a week ahead, just store in airtight container. -- posted by Manami

Peach & Pear Muffins

This recipe was designed in answer to a request from my son for crocodile muffins. The pear skins are the crocodile skin, the peaches are the eyeballs and the butterscotch chips are the teeth. My version is wheat, egg, and (almost) dairy free, but feel free to switch it up and use eggs and milk if you prefer. I haven't found dairy free butterscotch chips, so you could leave them out of the recipe if you needed to. There is no added sugar in this recipe because the fruit and butterscotch are plenty sweet. -- posted by DiabeticMom

A Mere Trifle! Strawberries and Clotted Cream Trifle

Mon, 08 Feb 2010 10:20:30 -0500

Luscious fresh strawberries nestle amongst light sponge cake sandwiched with strawberry jam, which are then covered with creamy custard and topped with clotted cream. Simple! This trifle may be simple but it is the star on any tea-time or dessert table and if you cannot obtain clotted cream, use whipping cream, heavy cream or double cream instead. Madeira is used in place of sherry in this trifle, which gives a mellow flavour to the trifle. This is a recipe that my mum sent to me, from a cutting in a British magazine promoting Devon and Cornwall in the West Country - home of the Cream Tea! If you wish to serve this to children or non-drinkers, substitute the Madeira with fruit juice of your choice. In the summer scatter some pink rose petals over the top for the ultimate and romantic finish! (Prep time includes the chilling and soaking time.) -- posted by French Tart

Slovenian Traditional - Prekmurska Gibanica

Mon, 08 Feb 2010 16:20:54 -0500

The best way to translate the name is folded cake. This is one of the most famous and loved Slovenian dishes.

I got this one from a Slovenian cookbook to be certain that all the measurements are correct. The preparation takes quite some time but it is all worth it. -- posted by Meme*

Tangy Blueberry Vinaigrette

Tue, 09 Feb 2010 14:05:12 -0500

A different and colorful salad dressing, not too oil-heavy. And it's vegan! I can get sunflower oil cheaply from a Mexican grocer nearby but if you can't find it, canola oil or salad oil will work in a pinch. I prefer to use frozen blueberries because I think the consistency's better plus I don't have to sift through them for moldy/rotten berries (and cost and storage reasons) but I'm sure fresh blueberries would work great too. -- posted by the80srule

Black Forest Trifle

Delicious bing cherries, with devils food cake, mousse and whipped cream combine a dish to die for! I found it at The Food Channel while trying to find something similar here and couldn't find anything, after asking and receiving permission to repost it here, I'm excited to share it with everyone on RecipeZaar! The only difference I made to it was using mostly almond extract and a touch of vanilla in the whipped cream, and because I don't have alchohol on hand I used grape juice in place of the chambord. I also couldn't find any commercially prepared chocolate mousse, so used one small packet of chocolate jello pudding, and mixed some of it with whipped cream I had whipped up. -- posted by Houdini's Mom
