Creamy Lower Fat Caramel Corn

The secret ingredient in this recipe will have you feeling like there's a ton of butter and cream in there... though there's not. Go ahead and indulge in this ooey-gooey treat!

Cereal Bars (No Bake)

Mon, 30 Nov 2009 02:00:53 -0500

This is a recipe I have adapted from CDkitchen "Gluten-Free Granola Bars Recipe". This has become a staple in our house! We make 2 batches of these a week, wrap them in parchment paper and seal them in an air tight glass container. Note: If you are gluten intolerant, you need to make sure that the rice and corn cereals you choose are gluten free. Some rice and corn cereals contain malt which is derived from barely. We use Nature's Path Rice cereal and Honey Sweetened Corn Flakes. -- posted by Gluten Free Berry's

Mon, 30 Nov 2009 02:01:27 -0500

This recipe is from the Gluten Free Hub "The Classic American Hamburger". This is a scrumptious, simple, gluten free hamburger patty! It stays moist and does not crumble! We usually double the recipe, grill all of the patties and then freeze them for quick use during the week! -- posted by Gluten Free Berry's

I got this recipe from my mom who got it from a breakfast cookbook. There are a few similar recipes on Zaar but none quite the same as this one. Mom makes these occasionally for the Rotary breakfast she serves and I'm always begging for the leftovers (when there are any!) I finally got the recipe from her so I can make them myself! -- posted by flower7

Super Easy Chips

Wed, 02 Dec 2009 18:00:52 -0500

This is more about technique than ingredients. It works for corn or flour tortillas, lavash, and similar flat breads. We love homemade tortilla chips, but turning them was driving me nuts until I had a lightbulb moment--so much nicer than my usual senior moments! Six 6" tortillas will fill a standard cookie sheet. If making a big batch you can have two pans going and reverse the order; it doesn't matter which side is cooked first, but it IS easier to watch the tops after changing position. For best results keep the oven door open during the entire process to insure that the heating elements stay on. A wonderful way to supplement winter heat but not a lot of fun on a hot day! -- posted by firefly68

V's Soft Turkey Taquitos With Southwestern Dip

Thu, 03 Dec 2009 14:58:07 -0500

Every year my dad would make these taquitos with leftover turkey. The corn tortillas are lightly fried in oil, rolled with turkey and sealed on a griddle and come out soft with a nice crunch with the turkey still moist and delicious. These are awesome because they are not deep fried or baked. I took over the tradition and have been making these for years. My family won't eat any leftover turkey in any other form except these soft taquitos. We look forward to these as an appetizer or a meal served with my own Southwestern Dip, Cheese Sauce, Salsa and my Chunky Guacomole the day after thanksgiving. -- posted by Vseward (Chef~V)

My mum bought some of this slice from a local Country Women's Association CWA cake stall. She enjoyed it so much that she asked for the recipe. Posting this recipe for my Mum. I think it would be just as good if made with a gluten-free flour blend, though I haven't tried making it gluten-free yet. -- posted by **Jubes**

Potato & Cheese Latkes With Apple-Pear Sauce

Sun, 06 Dec 2009 11:16:25 -0500

I found these online about 6 years ago and never posted them. What I like is that they are savory and a combination of both cheese and potato.The potato-cheese latkes prep time = 15 mins & frying time = 10 mins per batch. The apple-pear sauce prep time = 10 mins & cooking time = 20 mins. While there is nothing like the traditional applesauce and sour cream, here's this variation - easy to make and tastes great!!!!;) -- posted by Manami

The Worst English Muffin Pizza - "the Saddest Pizza for One

Fri, 18 Dec 2009 01:40:51 -0500

So why are you even looking at this recipe?! It's the worst! My husband and I were talking about how even bad pizza just isn't that bad. He remembered his mom making the box of Chef Boyardee pizza and it being pretty bad. I said I could top that... my mom would make pizza with english muffins and ketchup. Both of our kids were screaming out of fear that I would actually make these pizzas for them. We decided to call it "the Saddest Pizza for One". I had a great time making these for myself when I was four years old. And when you are so desperate for pizza - this is an option. Just thought I'd share our great memories with you! -- posted by Jennibear

Little Tavern Shops Hamburgers

Thu, 24 Dec 2009 12:38:43 -0500

Little Tavern Shops is a now-defunct chain of hamburger restaurants in Baltimore, Maryland, and Washington, D.C. The slogan of the chain was "Buy 'em by the bag", and its signs promised "Cold drinks * Good Coffee". The stores were quite small and could accommodate only a few seated customers, while most business was take-out. This recipe is posted in response to a HUGE forum discussion. If you wish to make larger patties, roll the meat into 1.7 ounce meatballs and cook as directed. -- posted by Molly53

My daughter loves this drink. My husband used to drink it alot as a child. It makes a great snack when paired with buttterd toast or a PB&J! I do not reccomend that you use any milk lower than whole milk because it will be too watery. A sugar subsitute does not alter the taste as much so you can try that. -- posted by Chef Sarita in Austin Texas

This is an evolved recipe. I started with a recipe for cinnamon lime fajitas, but I'm not keen on the potatoes. I didn't have peppers; but I do have cabbage...Look, a recipe for fajitas using cabbage! But it's raw and it's winter....nahhh. This is what I came up with & as weird as it sounds, it is delicious! At least to us - everybody, even THE PICKY ONE, loved this. No leftovers for the 4 of us but it's easily doubled. It says 8 tacos because that is the yield I got with corn tortillas. Please remember that flour tortillas are often bigger & will need more filling. I hope someone else enjoys this, too! -- posted by Elmotoo

Fortnum and Masons Authentic Scotch Eggs With Sausage and Herbs

Tue, 12 Jan 2010 17:06:45 -0500

Freshly boiled eggs are encased in a herb flavoured sausage jacket and are then deep-fried until golden and crisp, delicious! Contrary to popular belief, Scotch eggs are not Scottish, and they were actually invented by the famous London department store Fortnum & Mason in 1738, where they are still available today. The word "Scotch" is an old English word meaning to chop or mince, and obviously, the eggs are covered with chopped or minced pork sausage meat, hence the name Scotch Eggs. They are traditional British picnic food but I also like to serve them as a light lunch or snack, and they make a wonderful addition to the buffet table. These tasty traditional English specialities have had bad press over the years; mainly down to commercial mass production, but if you make them at home with fresh, free-range eggs and the best quality sausage meat, they will taste divine, and they will always be the stars of the picnic hamper or family lunch table! PLEASE use high quality sausage meat or sausages, with at least 70% meat content.Historical Note: Founded in 1707, Fortnum & Mason (F&M) stocks "food fit for a queen". The 300-year-old British department store, famous for its jams, teas, and sauces, provides the Queen with her annual supply of Christmas puddings and holds the "Royal Warrant. -- posted by French Tart

Simply steamed, Broccoli is a perfect finger food. While broccoli is terrific, broccoli and rice casserole is an example of what can be done with pureed broccoli. Its a favorite with my Toddler, and husband. -- posted by Kamden & Alyssas Mommy

Accidentally the Best Baked Chicken Nuggets Ever

Mon, 01 Feb 2010 12:29:57 -0500

Accidentally discovered this while playing around with Chinese restaurant classics. My nugget-expert daughter loved them. I use the marinade from http://www.recipezaar.com/Sweet-and-Sour-Pork-43587 (minus the extra salt) and the flouring and baking technique from http://www.recipezaar.com/Baked-Lemon-Chicken-With-Chinese-Lemon-Sauce-194890. The chicken works great with either sauce but my picky kid just loved the chicken by itself. Infact she liked it so much I had to post the recipe. All measurements are approximate; vary the spices based upon your own taste. -- posted by Jes32

Victorian Watercress Tea Sandwiches for High Tea and Picnics

Mon, 08 Feb 2010 10:20:30 -0500

During Victorian times, children used to take watercress sandwiches to school in place of meat ones. I love them, especially when cut into small trianges and served with a cuppa (cup of tea!). Use the freshest bread - I like to use wholemeal, and a fresh salted farmhouse butter. I have inlcluded a soup idea at the end of the recipe, to be made with the excess stalks! So a soup and sandwich recipe then! -- posted by French Tart

Vegan Dlt (Dulse, Lettuce, and Tomato) Sandwiches

Tue, 09 Feb 2010 16:02:08 -0500

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
