Easier-Than-You-Think Strawberry Shake (A.k.a. the Mistake)

Fri, 12 Jun 2009 01:51:35 -0400

Like the title states, this recipe is easier than you think. The original recipe called for a frozen banana but in the morning when I took the banana out of the freezer, it was no good. Having all of the other ingredients in the blender already, I pushed the "BLEND" button and hoped for the best. I guess you could call this "The Mistake". ENJOY! -- posted by Nick R.

Tahini and Caraway Roast

Mon, 15 Jun 2009 18:47:55 -0400

A hearty tasty loaf, the perfect alternative for vegetarians at barbecues, picnics and homemade dinners. Adding courgettes, peppers and other vegetables works very well as well as nuts, seeds and even dried fruits!! I would recommend cooking them in individual portions in a muffin tin but a loaf may work as well. -- posted by the_allergic_chef

1-2-3 Peanut Butter Cookies

Mon, 15 Jun 2009 19:07:14 -0400

I came across these cookies once by accident, and then spent hours looking for them later! This recipe is based one the one from Hannah Kaminsky's blog, BitterSweet (http://bittersweetblog.wordpress.com). These are vegan, gluten-free, and lower carb than most peanut butter cookies. If you're not calorie-counting, I'm sure Hannah's version is better. I just wanted to cut back a bit! -- posted by cooledskin

Wed, 17 Jun 2009 14:39:52 -0400

I recommend using a soft feta, such as Balkan or Macedonian; definitely not Canadian. I most like the flavours of the Balkan yoghurts. If it's too dry, you may want to add a teaspoon or two of olive oil. It really depends on the feta you use. -- posted by BritHans

Sarah's Vegan Oatmeal Amazingness Cookies

Fri, 26 Jun 2009 02:29:43 -0400

This vegan chocolate chip oatmeal cookie eats more like a breakfast food than a cookie. If you are looking for a sweet desert cookie for kids, this recipe might not work. However, if you are trying to eat healthy, preserve the environment, and indulge in a little yumminess, then this is an excellent cookie to bake! (I personally like the cookies chilled.) I thank my friend, Sarah F., for giving me this fabulous recipe. NOTE: For the ease of posting, I listed an egg in the ingredients. Egg Replacer works perfectly well in this recipe and it is usually how I make. If you live near Trader Joe's, their orange flavored cranberries are perfect for this recipe. Also, you can substitute currants or dried berries for the raisins. -- posted by The Bad Cook

Chilled Summer Lettuce, Lovage and Garden Pea Soup

Thu, 02 Jul 2009 02:25:38 -0400

A delightful and refreshing chilled soup for summer - this savoury soup takes its flavour from freshly chopped lovage leaves, which impart a savoury, lemony and celery-like taste. I like to serve this pale green soup in clear glass bowls for maximum impact, with a few chopped leaves sprinkled on top and a swirl of cream. This soup makes an elegant starter for any summer event or a light luncheon dish. Do not be tempted to add more lovage then is suggested, it is a very strong flavoured herb and can be overpowering if used with a heavy hand! -- posted by French Tart

Fat Free, Low Cal Biscuits!

Fri, 03 Jul 2009 16:11:07 -0400

Let me start off by saying HALLELUJAH!! My parents are BIG biscuit eaters, and dinner every night is a battle for me to turn down the biscuits. I adapted this recipe from a traditional "mayo" biscuit, and it is yummy! They come out very fluffy and are not cursed with the nasty baking powder flavor that most healthy biscuits have. I hope to soon experiment with oat flour in this recipe!! This is by far one of my favorite healthified recipes! -- posted by Health Nut 101

Mixed Herb Salad With Borage : La Salade De Plusieurs Herbes

Wed, 15 Jul 2009 10:58:51 -0400

A delightful old French salad recipe, which uses fresh aromatic herbs with fresh lettuce leaves and a simple dressing. Serve this with poached salmon or cold chicken for an elegant dinner party dish. Adapted from a 16th century French translation of a book originally written in Latin in 1474. NB: Borage is an excellent culinary herb and can be used in a variety of ways. Borage is far better used fresh, as the flavour and colour deteriorate when dried and some essential oils lost. Traditional recipes recommend borage leaves and seeds, together with fennel in salads for increasing the milk supply in nursing mothers. The leaves and flowers are still added for flavour and garnish to wine cups, Pimms and gin-based summer cocktails and the flowers are still candied for confectionary as cake and ice cream decorations. -- posted by French Tart

Walnut Brownie Energy Bites

Thu, 13 Aug 2009 11:51:08 -0400

Found this recipe at deliviouslivingmag.com. I haven't tried it, but I've seen recipes like it and wanted to put it here for safe keeping. The brownie bites are super healthy and I think they should be super delicious too. These are essentially raw brownie bites. Here's what it says on the website about them "Decadent and rich, these are made with good-fat almonds and antioxidant-laden cacao and sweetened with fiber-rich Medjool dates. They provide whole-food nutrition, so enjoy as a snack or treat. These can be kept at room temperature for a couple of days or will keep for at least a week refrigerated. Ingredient tips: Bobs Red Mill makes almond meal (flour), but if you cant find it, just use whole raw almonds and process them into a powder using your food processor. Prep tip: Keep batter from sticking to your hands by lightly coating them with coconut oil, olive oil, or even water." -- posted by dimply dots

BBQ Spice Rub

Fri, 21 Aug 2009 12:35:17 -0400

In the September 2009 Australian magazine 'super food ideas', where it features as a Father's Day BBQ Spice Rub, this recipe is described as "perfect for Dad to sprinkle over beef rump steak or other favourite BBQ meats before cooking." I'd hope that any dads worth spoiling won't be expected to BBQ for all and sundry on Father's Day but will be spoilt rotten! But for anyone BBQing at any time, this sounds yummy so I'm posting it here for safe-keeping. Personally, I'll be leaving out the dried chilli flakes. But do feel free to crank up the heat if that's your preference! My only change was to add the black pepper, but I'm in two minds about this as it's perhaps better to add this at the time. -- posted by bluemoon downunder

Homemade Soy Vanilla Ice Cream

Mon, 24 Aug 2009 01:23:39 -0400

Need a healthier alternative to regular ice cream that is easy to make? My family (including the meat and dairy lovers) loved this ice cream, and no one would have known that it didn't have milk or eggs! You can top it however you want, and experiment with the ingredients (we've made blackberry ice cream, strawberry ice cream, healthy chocolate chip cookie dough ice cream, healthy or "fake" butterfinger ice cream), etc.! You can make blizzards (aka Frosty or shake) by briefly blending it a bit in a blender. This recipe is perfect for experimenting! -- posted by Glorify.Jehovah

Mon, 14 Sep 2009 16:11:47 -0400

These cookies are sure to be safe in any school! And taste awesome too! One of our children started at a new school this year and it turns out to be a nut and egg free school because of the seriousness of the allergies that some of the children that go there have. As a result my wife started scouring different recipes for snacks that were egg and nut free to send along with our daughter for school. She didn't really like any of the ones she tried so she ended up creating her own out of a combination of all the cookie recipes she tried. Hope you enjoy them as much as we do. -- posted by Chef Ryoni

Easy Vegetarian/Vegan Black Bean Soup

Wed, 30 Sep 2009 01:10:37 -0400

Hearty, yummy, and healthy! This is a really easy soup to make, it cooks really fast without many steps, and is very rich with black beans. Some fresh cilantro would make a nice replacement to the coriander but I usually don't have it on hand, so I used dry spices for everything but it came out great. I like my soups with a tad of salt, but you can omit the salt if you're watching your sodium intake or lower it/replace with something like SaltSense. It's very pleasant and mild, though you could probably put some Bayou Blast or red cayenne in the spice mixture if you want it hotter. Yields about 2-3 small servings. -- posted by the80srule

Berry Yoghurt Smoothie

Thu, 08 Oct 2009 10:55:23 -0400

I got this recipe from Sarah Owen's book "The Top 100 juices", published by Lifetime Distributers, Castle Hill, Australia. Sarah Owen says "The super-nutrient vitamin C is needed for more than 300 diferent processes in the body, but it is easily wiped out by smoking, pollution and stress. Found in abundance in berries, vitamin C and other antioxidants help to quash the damaging free radicals that are associated with many illnesses." The original recipe calls for natural bio yoghurt to be used, but any yoghurt will do. This makes a large amount of smoothie, and if you're making it just for yourself, I'ld recommend halving it. I hope you enjoy this healthy - but still tasty - smoothie :) -- posted by TALIA #3

Green Herb Seasoned Salt

Fri, 23 Oct 2009 01:11:44 -0400

I like to use this when I reach for salt, So I lower my intake of salt and kick up the flavor of what I cook. I used home grown herbs that I dried whole. Leaves that are loosely packed into measuring cups. So if using store bought do take note the amounts of the whole herbs would be a lot less. I guesstimate my 2/3's. Great to season any game, roast beef or roast poultry. Season roast veggies, stuffing, rice or potatoes. How about a touch on your eggs. I do like heat but I kept it down in this using only peppercorns. You can add chili powder to really make it hot! -- posted by ~Rita~

Chicken 65 Curry

Mon, 26 Oct 2009 18:23:38 -0400

This sticky, spicy chicken curry is deliciously sweet and packs just the right amount of heat. It is to be scooped up with warm, chewy naan, then licked off of fingers.Your first step is to hunt down some curry leaves. Their flavour is irreplaceable in this dish - a bit nutty, warm, and citrusy. Used a lot in South Indian cooking, they have nothing to do with curry powder which is a blend of spices.Start by browning the chicken in a heavy skillet - make sure the oil is good and hot and the chicken has been patted dry before you put it in the pan. Dont flip it until it releases easily - if it is sticking, leave it - it will tear if you try and turn it before it is ready. Next, cook the onions gently over low heat for about 10 minutes to coax out the sweetness. Then add the spices to the pan to saute before the liquid is added. These three steps have a big flavour impact. As far as curries go, the ingredient list is very short. Which makes it a great curry for beginners, if you can track down some curry leaves at an Indian grocer. Serve with naan http://www.recipezaar.com/Naan-56245 . -- posted by College Girl

Apricot-Walnut Oatmeal

Mon, 02 Nov 2009 22:10:15 -0500

My husband and I eat this every morning M-F. The oatmeal is low sodium, low sugar, high fiber. The apricots are high Vit A (beta carotene), the walnuts are high Vit E. Without honey, it's quite bland. Honey, I feel, is a better choice than sugar because it is antiseptic and is thought to help with allergies, from which my DH does suffer. -- posted by DonitaK

Bacon Caramels

Tue, 03 Nov 2009 11:25:40 -0500

Where would we be without salt? James Beard I casually sprinkled the thick-cut Hemplers bacon with cayenne before frying to a nearly blackened crisp. Once the caramel had reached its perfect molten temperature I stirred in a handful of the bacon then reserved the rest to get sprinkled on top. The caramel set beautifully. Some were cut and served as is while a select few were covered in tempered dark chocolate. All of them were devoured. from Not Without Salt Don't knock it til you try it.... -- posted by College Girl

Fri, 13 Nov 2009 11:59:46 -0500

Now that I'm seeing shelled edamame (healthy blanched soybeans) frozen in bags at the store, this soup is easy and quick to make. I used jarred fresh ginger, because I was out of the regular ginger. Other vegetables could be added, but this is the basic redipe. The Asian flavors make this a winner, and even people like me who aren't as health-conscious as they should be should like it.. -- posted by Mareesme
