Oh-So-Easy Sweet Tea

Mon, 24 Aug 2009 01:40:55 -0400

This is a recipe for "the wine of the south", otherwise known as sweetened iced tea or "Sweet tea." Forget about waiting for a pot of water to boil, and then waiting for the tea to steep. It doesn't get any easier than this. -- posted by hwmabire3

Banana Almond Date Soy Smoothie

Tue, 25 Aug 2009 02:54:39 -0400

This vegan smoothie is amazingly rich, creamy, filling, and healthy. It has a nice texture to it from the almonds and a natural sweetness from the banana and dates. I like that there is no refined sugar added or any animal products, all good for us and the planet. I like using a frozen banana to make the drink cold, but room temperature works well too. If you want to freeze bananas, peel them before freezing. Peeling frozen bananas doesn't work! And place them separated in the freezer so they don't freeze together. -- posted by Chef #1363287

Healthy Strawberry-Banana Breakfast Smoothie

Fri, 04 Sep 2009 10:09:07 -0400

I've been trying to eat healthier and add in my fruits and vegetables in my diet. For me, that's a huge task since I'm a horribly picky eater! I wanted to get more bananas in my diet for the potassium, but I HATE the taste of them! So basically what I did this morning for breakfast was add everything into this smoothie recipe until I could barely taste the banana and it worked! I calculated that this smoothie is about 470 calories, and almost 9 grams of fiber. I also flax oil to give this drink an extra boost of nutrition. -- posted by Chef #1356549

Homemade Lemonade

Fri, 04 Sep 2009 14:47:24 -0400

I make this by the gallons every summer very refreshing! This summer I made 3 1 gallon jars of this lemonade for Erika's 4Th birthday party we bought the extra - large peanut glass jars at Wal - Mart and they looked really pretty sitting on the counter top and island in the kitchen with the raspberries and sliced lemons floating in the lemonade in the jars with the ice glistening in the sun coming in through the kitchen windows. There was not a drop left after the Birthday Party! Although Deb, Erika's mom did ask for a special request more sugar to go in the lemonade than I usually use so it was much "sweeter" and not as tangy but still very refreshing on a very hot and special day for Erika! -- posted by oilpatchjo

The Adjustable Rate

Thu, 24 Sep 2009 15:03:50 -0400

An interesting cocktail that looks like a great one from Barnonedrinks dot com. Original contributer was-- Bartender: Derek ONeill Butler, Prime One Twelve Restaurant, Miami, FL. I interpretted the amounts as Zaar doesn't allow "parts" (I may update this once I make it). Here is the original for those who want to change it: 5 part(s) Pineapple Juice Fresh 1 part(s) Cruzan Black Cherry Rum 1 part(s) Hornitos Plata Tequila 1 splash(es) Orange Juice 1/2 part(s) DeKuyper Tropical Pineapple Schanpps The website blurb made me laugh...maybe this will explain the drink as well: "What once seemed a bargain came to claim its dues.

Veggie Green Drink

Wed, 14 Oct 2009 14:19:56 -0400

I came up with this one night after a long drive from New York to Philadelphia. All I had eaten were french fries, so I was desperate to get some greens into me fast! This drink took care of the craving right away. The stevia helps to blunt the harsh taste of the veggies. If you want to make it a soup, use less water and perhaps add some spices instead of the stevia. Also, the yogurt can easily be omitted if you are vegan or have dairy issues; just use less water, -- posted by Jainene

Fall Harvest Smoothie

Tue, 27 Oct 2009 01:42:24 -0400

This recipe tastes like pumpkin pie in a glass! You will never know it is packed with veggies and fruits and "good for you stuff". Top with a little fat free whip cream for an extra-special desert. My teen-age daughter begs for this and sometimes we even heat it up for a thick soup. The key to this recipe is to make sure you use a blender/smoothie maker that has enough power to completely puree alll the ingredients; otherwise the squash will stay stringy. -- posted by RackeSRN

Sometimes I just want a strong cinnamon coffee with no other flavors added this was made for just such a time. This is goodness in its purest form but, of course, the amount of liqueur is easily adjustable to personal taste, if you like less or more, just make it as you like it. I prefer it hot but it would be quite adaptable to being made as an iced coffee also. Please note that any cinnamon liqueur that you like will work just fine. -- posted by Annacia

Strawberry Raspberry Smoothie

Thu, 03 Dec 2009 13:51:47 -0500

I made this completely by accident, and i love it! I use Yoplait thick and creamy yougurt, i think it gives the drink the best texture, and I also use the condensed frozen juice, welches white grape is the best, but apple also works, depends on how sweet you like it. I also found substituting 1 Delmonte Fruit chiller in polar raspberry tastes better to me than the frozen berries themselves. To each his own. For a healthier smoothie use light yougurt, no sugar added juice, and skim milk. -- posted by Chef #1470073

This is a great, sorta spicy but refreshing beer cocktail that pairs well with Salt & Vinegar chips and Mexican Novellas! Sort of like a Mexican Bloody Mary.. All the ingredients are adjustable to your own taste; want it spicier? Add more hot sauce. Tangier? More lemon!

As a serious smoothie addict, I have done quite a bit of experimenting to make something both delicious and filling. While I do love smoothies with fresh fruit, this particular recipe works best with frozen fruit because of the addition of cereal. Play around with flavors of yogurt and fruit until you find a pairing that you love! My favorite is Dannon Light and Fit banana yogurt and frozen mixed berries (blueberries, raspberries, strawberries, and blackberries). If you want to make this low-carb, look for SoySlender brand soy milk, as it only has 1g net carbs per serving. -- posted by The Casual Gourmet

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

The only hot cocoa for one recipes that I could find use milk, but I wanted one I could make with coffee......................walah!!!! Update: Upon further investigation I have discovered that this recipe is more for two than one........................so, if you think it is a little thick, try cutting it in half. -- posted by Stephen Shafer

Chilli Cordial

Mon, 08 Feb 2010 10:47:17 -0500

This is a nice flavoured cordial with a bite. The recipe was by Jackie French, although there are others which are similar as it is a simple recipe. You can vary the heat by varying the number of chillies used. I have quite a few chilli plants so I am always looking for ways to use them up. -- posted by The Normans
