Spinach & Tomato Crustless Quiche

Tue, 06 May 2003 20:05:32 -0400

This recipe is slightly altered from Holly Clegg's "Meals on the Move", so it's meant to be fast and healthy. I only changed the garlic and basil, since I've learned to appreciate fresh ingredients. This is tasty and she says it serves 6. Maybe so, but unless it's an appetizer, I say 4 for a light lunch with some fruit on the side. Looks low carb to me, too. -- posted by GinnyP

Warm Spinach Salad

Tue, 05 Aug 2003 20:02:54 -0400

A delicious salad! This recipe is from the revised Joy of Cooking. Prep time is time to prepare the bacon and eggs and assemble the other ingredients. All that can be done in advance. -- posted by GinnyP

Chilled Lentil Soup With Spinach

Fri, 25 Jun 2004 20:00:06 -0400

Lentil soup isn't just for winter anymore! "Minestra Fredda di Lenticchie e Spinaci"...a chilled puree of lentil soup with spinach from The Lighter Side of Italy. You can use a rich veggie broth to make this a vegan soup, although you might want to increase the spices slightly if you do. (I tend to add a bit of rosemary) Best if made the day before so that the flavors can really mingle. Prep time does not include final chilling time. Keeps well in refrigerator for up to a week or in freezer for up to 3 months. -- posted by winkki

Layered Vegetable Casserole

Tue, 29 Jun 2004 20:00:04 -0400

I got this recipe from Canadian Living magazine a few years ago. It is a delicious layered casserole combination of creamy mashed potatoes, spinach and squash, that's a great comfort food laced with zingy fresh ginger. I often receive potluck invitatiions with the requests to bring "That layered thing." -- posted by MarieAlice

Just Peachy Spinach Salad

Thu, 08 Jul 2004 20:00:20 -0400

A low calorie, low fat, delicious and refreshing salad with a citrus dressing which was with a recipe for orange-glazed pork cutlets.

A refreshing and flavoursome salad which is visually appealing and complements any meat, rice or pasta dish. Adapted from a recipe in the latest issue of the Australian magazine 'New Idea'. When I posted this initially, I just listed "pears" in the ingredients, but have since located the pears specified, and I have made the salad with those pears: CORELLA PEARS. See notes below. -- posted by bluemoon downunder

Cool Spinach Soup

Thu, 26 Jan 2006 15:39:17 -0500

This recipe is named Cool Spinach Soup but I eat it hot. I was nervous about eating this soup at first, but now I adore it! For vegatarians, sub veggie broth for the chicken. If you a vegan, omit the milk or sub soy milk. -- posted by BurtonFanatic

A big batch of Oriental-style vegetable soup: enjoy it now and freeze the rest for lunches on the go. I created this one day when I was wanting something to warm me up on a cold winter day in Buffalo. My family loves it! Omit fish oil for vegetarian/vegan fare. For a gluten-free recipe, use tamari rather than soy sauce. -- posted by Sesquipedalian Sapphist

Persian Herb Omelette Kuku

Thu, 12 Apr 2007 15:22:15 -0400

This is mostly greens and very little egg. This recipes makes a lot extra so you can have greens kept in the freezer to pull out and add egg to make in a jiffy. Half a mixing bowl of greens will yield one Kuku omelette for 2 people or slice like pizza and serve for appetizers with pita bread. -- posted by nyamyj

Getting more spinach into our diet is something I've been working on lately, but not everyone likes just plain spinach. This recipe adds spinach to fried onions and mushrooms. The balsamic vinegar is wonderful but substitute a splash of lemon juice if you like. Easily doubled. -- posted by Cookin-jo

Mom's Spinach Quiche

Fri, 19 Oct 2007 17:40:33 -0400

This is a great dish for a weeknight because you can quickly mix up the ingredients and pop it in the oven for an hour while you do other things. I love that it is very versitale and does well with substitutions and differing amounts. If I don't have cottage cheese, I use ricotta or if I have a little left of each I will use both. I've even used up leftover mexican cheese instead of the mozzarella and it still tastes great! My mom used to make this recipe every couple of months when I was growing up and it was always such a treat. I was pleasantly surprised to find out how easy it is to make! Sometimes she made it in a pie crust and of course that was even better! I enjoy topping it with crumbled feta when I have some in the house. I hope your family enjoys it as much as mine! -- posted by Emily Elizabeth

Best Ever Italian Spinach

Thu, 24 Jan 2008 20:24:05 -0500

This is the best ever Italian Spinach. I believe it is very close to the recipe used by the Memphis resteraunt called Grisanti's. This recipe would also be VERY easy to double or triple. I hate eggs, and I love this recipe. My husband is not a huge 'green veggie' fan, and he loves this recipe. It is great, fast, easy, involves common ingredients, and will be a staple in your kitchen. I am going to try cooking in batches and putting in ziplocks to freeze (OAMC). -- posted by Katwomyn

Very Rustic Spinach and Feta Tart (Side Dish or Maybe ...)

Fri, 16 Jan 2009 01:04:11 -0500

A very simple, tasty, CRUSTLESS tart to throw together in minutes! This, to me, is so typical of the wonderfully casual way in which Mediterranean French dishes are made, quickly, fresh, and no-nonsense. I used a pillow pack of pre-washed baby spinach. If you need to wash it, dry in a salad spinner or dry well with paper towels, or you might have too much liquid. This is the very simplest of rustic dishes, requiring not much in the way of seasoning. Add garlic if you wish. Do not add salt if using a salty feta! Very nice with any meat main dish. (You can use swiss chard or any other spinach-type veggie). Please see other suggestions in the directions! -- posted by Zurie

Spinach and Red Grape Salad

Coconut Lime Smoothie

Thu, 02 Apr 2009 01:46:54 -0400

I was just wanting to try to make something new and this is what I threw together. You can't taste the spinach AT ALL. Tastes very limey - add coconut milk if you have it to balance it out if you want. -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------What's great about this pairing is that the ascorbic acid, the vitamin C, in the limes helps the body absorb the iron found in the spinach. Without vitamin C mixed with the spinach, the human body only takes 20% of the available iron in the spinach! Drink up! -- posted by ThatSouthernBelle

Cherry Avocado Smoothie

You can't even taste the veggies - I promise!____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ Made this today on a whim - pretty delicious for no recipe! ____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ Remember, the citrus juice is a must with the combination of spinach so the body can absorb more of the iron available in the spinach. -- posted by ThatSouthernBelle

Cooking Light's Citrus Chicken Cutlets

Fri, 08 May 2009 01:39:10 -0400

This is a fast, easy, and healthy recipe that makes a very moist and flavourful chicken. If you double the marinade you can pour it over some rice and have a complete (and delicious) dinner. Also, if you have the time, let the chicken marinate for longer- it will be even juicier. The marinade would also work well with a mild fish. Recipe is from Cooking Light Magazine (October 2006). -- posted by blucoat

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

Vegan Spinach-Mushroom Quiche

Mon, 16 Nov 2009 09:56:11 -0500

My friends and family are always getting on me to publish my recipes; I don't really use them, nor do I regularly remember even what I put into my dishes. I took this dish to a vegan potluck last night, and it disappeared in seconds. This morning I was awoken at gun point (exaggerated for dramatic effect) to post this recipe.... So, I thought it wise of me to comply. This recipe takes me about an hour of prep time, and about an hour to cook. There are shortcuts one may take to cut down on the prep time, but the first time, I suggest leaving ample time to prepare. I have used a variety of nuts for this recipe, all working out well (this last time I ran out of sesame seeds, so I used 2 tbsp of my tamari roasted pumpkin seeds, and 1 tbsp of raw pecans). I also like to make my dishes gluten free for potlucks, so I used ½ cup of blue corn meal, and ½ garbanzo flour in place of the whole wheat pastry flour, the taste was amazing, but a little more crumbly then whole wheat pastry flower. Finally, I really recommend using sesame oil, but realizing it is expensive, olive oil will work. -- posted by Starvin' Vegan
