Quinoa - Risotto Style 1

Mon, 19 Oct 2009 13:07:28 -0400

This is my own recipe. I like it, as it's a fast way to eat well and feel great... Quinoa, poblano peppers and parmesan ! Don't use kraft powder. Buy some real parmesan or, even better, Belgioioso 'American Grana' if you're in the USA -- by far one of the best "parmesan" style cheeses you can find in the states. The fact that they admit it's American, gets you over a psychological barrier, and it's just a great product. You'll become addicted...eat it with fruit : figs, mango, guava... -- posted by Asd;MRS-NYC

Summer Camp Gorp

Tue, 20 Oct 2009 13:12:51 -0400

I used to work in the kitchen of a summer camp back in the day and we would always make this recipe for the kids at snack time and set some out for breakfast. During the breakfast hours I would see some kids pour milk over it and have it as a kind of makeshift cereal. Of course we would make this in tremendous quantities so I've had to do some math and lessen the ingredient amounts needed. So just a quick tip: if you decide to double this recipe, please use 3 large eggs instead of 4 small eggs. Also keep an eye on the oats as they're cooking, as all ovens are different, so they don't burn. -- posted by NapalmFairy

Buckingham Palace Scones

Wed, 21 Oct 2009 13:41:32 -0400

!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!HAPPY BIRTHDAY BARBARA!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! "What better for this Buckingham Palace than a scone recipe from the lovely Kew Royal Botanical Gardens Maids in Waiting Reportedly from the restaurant across from the Kew The Maids in Waiting (I think that is the name) in KEW right across the street from the Royal Botanical Gardens ..they also make these wonderful little cakes called Maids in Waiting!! otherwise, the Orangerie in Kensington." The above was from my friend Katharine who came over to the house with more friends, to make me a post party brunch. What a kind and thoughtful present! We all had a wonderful time. I relaxed with one of my friends in the parlor, while the others cooked. This is why they called the scones, "Buckingham Palace Scones". -- posted by Sweetiebarbara

Mom's Simple Granola

Wed, 21 Oct 2009 20:51:33 -0400

My Mom literally makes this granola every other day. It barely makes it off the cookie sheet before it is gone. Great as a cereal with milk, as a snack, as a topping to yogurt, OR dare I say, a topping to create fruit crisp. I like to make mine with milk chocolate chips or dried cranberries, but you can add any extras you like! -- posted by Hadice

Mom's Thanksgiving Stuffing

Wed, 21 Oct 2009 21:44:03 -0400

Most Americans no doubt love their family's traditional Thanksgiving stuffing. Here's my mom's recipe that I have used and adapted for many years. It's always been my favorite part of the holiday meal. I hope you enjoy it! This is a good amount for an 18 pound turkey. The amounts may be easily increased or decreased. I make bread crumbs by slicing and cutting different types of bread, like whole wheat, sourdough, and potato. I usually dry the bread in a large, deep pan in the oven, stirring often for about 15-20 minutes at around 350 degrees. My mom used to prepare the bread cubes on the Monday evening before Thanksgiving, putting them in bowls or pans, covering them with cloths, and stirring occasionally to achieve a dry texture in a few days. -- posted by rochsann

Moist Cornbread Muffins

Teff Muffins With Fruit & Nuts

Mon, 26 Oct 2009 13:34:56 -0400

The grains of teff are so small, the bulk of the grain consists of the bran and germ. This makes teff nutrient dense as the bran and germ are the most nutritious parts of any grain. This grain has a very high calcium content. It is considered to have an excellent amino acid composition, with lysine levels higher than wheat or barley. Teff is high in protein, carbohydrates, and fiber. It contains no gluten so it is appropriate for those with gluten intolerance. Teff flour, brown rice flour & arrowroot flour can be purchased at whole food stores. -- posted by lwatkins

Injera (Ethiopian Flatbread)

Tue, 27 Oct 2009 01:37:52 -0400

This is a sour, spongy bread from Ethiopia, served at nearly every meal. In the homeland this bread is made as a sourdough. This recipe is a modification for America kitchens by Marcus Samuelsson. Lay a piece of it on the hugest plate you have. In the center of it put a dipper of your finest, zestiest, most mouthwatering stew. Now, eat the stew tearing off pieces of the bread from the sides & scooping up the stew. Need another piece of injera?! Sure! It could take 2 or 3 pieces to scoop up all that wonderful stew. -- posted by lwatkins

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

Garth Brook's German Chocolate Cake With Coconut Frosting

Fri, 06 Nov 2009 15:44:53 -0500

Trisha Yearwood says every February, when it's Garth Brooks birthday, she makes this beautiful and delicious cake for him. She says last fall, Garth made a sad statement like only three more months until you make me that awesome German chocolate cake again! She made the cake the next day. She doubles the frosting recipe to frost the entire cake, because Garth likes extra frosting, but one recipe will frost the tops of the layers and do the trick just fine- unless you are Garth! If you have some frosting left over, it's good spread on graham cracker or on brownies. Okay, it's also good right off the spoon! Enjoy! -- posted by Sharon123

I had misplaced this recipe and recently found it again.

This recipe came from Trisha Yearwood, who married Garth Brooks and wrote a cookbook called Georgia Cooking in an Oklahoma kitchen with a forward by Garth Brooks himself! Gotta try these! :) Be sure to use paper liners in the muffin tins and spray them with nonstick spray; otherwise, they will crumble when you peel off the liners. This recipe also makes great mini muffins; just shorten the baking time by 5 minutes. You might also try using oat flour instead of all purpose for a healthier muffin. -- posted by Sharon123

They are also really good dipped in pretty much any kind of mustard, and my little one year old boy loves them. Feel free to experiment with any kind of rice you have on hand for this. I've used 11 different types of rice for it, and each time it was wonderful.

Mon, 16 Nov 2009 11:44:38 -0500

Oh my gosh these are AWESOME! This can of pineapple on the counter was calling to me, and my husband can't eat wheat, so if I make pancakes they're gonna have oats in them. Plus, the Tahitian Pancakes came up on Heroes in the past week or so, so that's on my mind. I combined two different recipes that I found online, one for pineapple pancakes and one for oatmeal pancakes. Neither one is like this new version though. SO AWESOME! One last thing, I used coconut milk instead of cow milk, since my husband is also on this non-dairy kick. This recipe makes A LOT of pancakes, and they're very filling.

Also try using different types and boldness variations of Cheddar, or sub Monterrey Jack or a mixture thereof. Those shredded Mexican/Taco cheese packages work well too. I use lots of jalapenos!!! Sometimes I add cayenne as well. If you want a milder version, remove the seeds of the jalapenos before you cut them. But try to use as much peppers as you can stand as it really gives it more dimension. Check your local gourmet market for milder peppers as well if you are sensitive to the heat. -- posted by GoldsmithLissa

Grandma Linda's Thanksgiving Dressing

Sun, 22 Nov 2009 17:22:41 -0500

My mother has made this dressing for our family since I was a little girl. It is the only Thanksgiving dressing my family will eat. I would weigh 500 pounds if I made this dressing as often as I craved it! Although I know most people prefer holiday recipes that have been passed down in their own families, I hope you will enjoy this Thanksgiving dressing recipe that the McWell's have enjoyed for many, many years! My mother used Jiffy corn bread mix in the old days, then later switched to Marie Calender's corn bread mix. In this recipe, I am using the "sweet corn muffins" recipe on a box of Albers Yellow Corn Meal. Because I am using Albers brand corn meal, all ingredients up to "12 Tbs butter" are for this particular brand cornmeal. If using any other cornbread mix, follow directions on the box, then add ingredients beginning with "1 Lb bacon." This recipe is for Thanksgiving so it makes quite a large amount. Thanks Mom! -- posted by Mrs Cook

Mon, 23 Nov 2009 14:19:10 -0500

This is from the King Arthur website and is for a loaf made with white whole wheat. These directions are for a 1 1/2 pound loaf, but you can adjust to a 1-pound or a 2-pound loaf based on the flour/liquid/yeast proportions your bread machine requires. I am posting this recipe here b/c this is our go-to bread recipe (I typically make a couple of loaves a week) and I wanted easy access to it in my Zaar Cookbook. -- posted by Rubies

Crispy on the outside, soft and melting on the inside, these delicious snacks are a great alternative to regular chips or fries or served on their own perhaps with a tomato relish to accompany them. You can use any cup or mug to measure the ingredients, adjust salt accordingly -- posted by robd16

Holiday Nut Roll (Americanized Croatian Nut Roll)

Mon, 23 Nov 2009 17:16:56 -0500

While similar to other nut roll recipes, this filling is unique because it uses no egg whites or lemon and includes a delicious "Americanization" of the Slavic recipe by adding--whiskey! It adds a fantastic additional flavor; feel free to split the filling before adding whiskey if you'd like to reserve some spirit-free for the kids (though it cooks off and I've never met a kid who didn't like this). Makes a big batch--perfect for giving away. Freezes very well. My sister and I will make double this batch all at once and freeze them until we're ready to give/send them out. -- posted by Tlharin

Southern Grits Rice-Style

Mon, 23 Nov 2009 18:10:29 -0500

I've been researching better ways to cook my grains. I scrapped everything I knew about how to cook grits and decided to try cooking them as if I were cooking Japonica rice. The result? The creamiest grits I've ever made. I will never make grits another way again. -- posted by EdithAnn

Tim's Midwestern Dressing

Thu, 26 Nov 2009 02:12:05 -0500

This simple stuffing/dressing recipe has been passed down for several generations in Ohio. Now that I'm in Texas, I kept losing the darn recipe, so I decided to upload it here. BTW, you can add cooked and chopped giblets and neck to this dressing, if desired. Just simmer them in water or chicken broth for several minutes or so to ensure they're properly cooked before adding to mix. -- posted by Toby's Foods

Lemony Vegetable Barley Pilaf

Thu, 26 Nov 2009 09:55:47 -0500

A simple side dish, and what is so nice with this is you can use any vegetables you like. I happen to like asparagus and red pepper, but you could use peas, lima beans, broccoli, etc. It does take 25 minutes for the barley cook up, but it is very easy. -- posted by SarasotaCook
