Honey-Mustard Green Beans

Tue, 19 Jan 2010 17:25:31 -0500

This is such a tasty, fresh way to serve green beans! Very quick and simple; it can even be made a day ahead. The kiddos will eat it up! I have an aunt who requests that I bring this every Thanksgiving. I originally got this recipe from Parenting magazine. If you want to prepare ahead of time, just fully prepare as directed then cover and refrigerate. Bring it to room temperature before serving. -- posted by MN*Kelly

Valentine Candy Cones

Wed, 20 Jan 2010 11:56:49 -0500

These are so neat! My sister sent me pictures of these, and they are just darling! She is making them for Valentine's Day with her grandkids. Really cute thing to do with kids. You could probably make things for other holidays such as little eggs for an Easter cone,or candy corn for a Thanksgiving cone! They're really easy and would take no time at all. Note** the amounts of M&M's are a guestimate. You can use more or less accordingly. -- posted by FLUFFSTER

(Lighter) Cottage Pie

Thu, 21 Jan 2010 13:24:30 -0500

In the winter cold, I always feel like heavy, stodgy comfort foods, but I know that I'll regret them when summer comes and none of my clothes fit. This cottage pie is a healthier version of the popular British dinner, which uses lean ground beef, and skim milk and margarine in the potato topping to cut calories. I serve it with carrots and peas. -- posted by Chef #601730

Three-Ingredient Sticky Baked Chicken

Thu, 21 Jan 2010 13:32:42 -0500

From the Canadian Family Website: Sticky, sweet with a little savory soy sauce, this chicken is pure yummy. Destined to become a family favorite because kids love it and parents love the simplicity of this oven-to-table meal. I had a great result making this with bone in chicken leg thigh quarters. I had one piece that was skinless, and we discovered that using skinless does allow the flavor of the glaze to permeate the chicken better. This was a hit with my whole family - including my hard to please 3 year old. I used ketchup, reduced sodium soy, and lite maple syrup. Ingredients I happened to have on hand. This could NOT be easier. Adjust cooking times as needed for bone in cuts. Great with white rice and steamed broccoli. This recipe is so simple that you will probably have this assembled before your oven is preheated. -- posted by Linda Sue

Death by Chocolate Trifle

Mon, 25 Jan 2010 12:41:29 -0500

This I have made many ways. If you don't like coffee and want a sweet dessert kids will LOVE, use sweetened condensed milk to pour over the cake (about 2/3 of the can) and refrigerate until completely cool. If you want a party dessert adults will love, use Kaluha, about 1/2 cup. Cool whip makes a great sub for whipped cream (might even be better!) but I am trying to use less "fake" foods so I choose to do real. the cool whip holds up better if this will be around for days though! Chocolate mousse is my favorite here, but lots of people have a hard time finding it, i know only a few stores around me carry it so I am listing it with pudding, but if you can find mousse, USE IT! -- posted by newmama

Sopes

Mon, 25 Jan 2010 16:17:44 -0500

Sopes are very traditional in mexican households. The toppings range from just beans and cheese, to eggs, shredded chicken or beef, picadillo, or even just guacamole. To form the sopes you will need either a tortilla press orflat plate or the bottom of a skillet. Also, you will need plastic wrap or a small ziploc bag cut into two pieces and the zipper cut off. -- posted by Tiny_Toodles

Creamy Leftover Chicken Surprise

Wed, 27 Jan 2010 09:24:34 -0500

I invented this recipe a long time ago and make it when I have leftover chicken. It's quick and made with simple ingredients. Feel free to make substitutions and experiment with it. Fresh or frozen broccoli. Cream of chicken soup or cream of mushroom. Any type of cooked chicken will do, but I prefer breast. If the leftover chicken has been marinated or seasoned, it will be a bonus. Any type of small pasta. Cheeses are flexible as well. I often use a combination of whatever I have on hand. Just be sure its sliced or shredded so that it melts quickly.It's a great all in one meal to keep on the stove on nights when family members are coming and going at different times. -- posted by veggienut

This is a quick hot fudge recipe that I use when I really want to indulge. You can mix in any kind of 70% Cocoa and above chocolate bars (bars usually come as 2 oz, so you would need 2).

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

I got this off the box of Kelloggs corn flakes- but it actually calls for cocoa krispies! LOL My kids wanted to make this, but oldest needed the box for school, so here it is, on zaar for safe keeping! Guessed on servings/yield because I have never made them before.... -- posted by Jennywren93

Bisquick Chocolate Chip Cookies- Just 6 Ingredients!

Tue, 09 Feb 2010 15:16:18 -0500

Classic comfort food. I remember making these in home ec back in the day. God I hated junior high and would never want to relive that torture: but those cookies were good! That good to make me want to remember it. And we didn't keep Bisquick in my house so it was an especially great delight for me. Makes about 16-24 cookies depending on how big you make them. They may not taste as fine as pure from scratch cookies, but they still taste good and are a time-tested kid pleaser. Can sub vegetable oil or shortening for the butter but the butter tastes better. And to make these a tad fancier, I suggest using 1/2 tsp vanilla and 1/2 tsp almond extract. -- posted by the80srule

Vegan Dlt (Dulse, Lettuce, and Tomato) Sandwiches

Dulse is a delicious and very nutritious sea vegetable. Its salty flavor and crispy texture make it an excellent substitute for bacon in this sandwich with much less sodium and fat than the "real" thing. -- posted by Prose
