Microwave Sweet Potato Bake

Thu, 14 Jan 2010 11:46:36 -0500

This is a dish my mother created. It is so easy, fast and always gets rave reviews from dinner guests! It is my favourite side-dish. It goes really well with fish or any other white meat. I have always made this by eye, so the measurements are a rough estimate. (Preperation time excludes steaming of the sweet potatoes.) -- posted by Mandy-H

Portabello Bowls With a Warm Spinach Potato Salad

Sun, 17 Jan 2010 15:26:05 -0500

Want a nice twist as a side dish? This is a bit healthier, but still very satisfying. It takes my favorites from a spinach salad; spinach, warm bacon dressing, mushrooms, onions, and add some diced potatoes to make it more of a warm potato salad. All stuffed inside a portabello. I enjoy to serve this dish with pork tenderloin or some roast chicken. -- posted by SarasotaCook

I made this with fat-free half & half to lighten it up a bit. I couldn't tell from the original recipe whether to simmer the carrots covered or uncovered - doing it covered made a fairly thin soup. If you want a thicker soup, I'd imagine leaving it uncovered would help. From The Joy of Cooking. -- posted by mayness

Sarasota's Chicken With Fennel & Olives

Thu, 21 Jan 2010 13:37:08 -0500

This is actually based on a suggestion made by another Recipezaar member, SarasotaCook. I had made a request for ideas to use up some ingredients in my freezer and pantry, and she kindly described how she likes to prepare chicken using the ingredients I had on hand. I took her idea and this is what I came up with. Sarasota told me to go ahead and post the recipe, so here is how I prepared it. I used Muir Glen organic for the diced tomatoes. Note: I removed the skin after cooking and served the meat sliced off the bone; the nutritional facts are assuming you ate all of the marinade, didn't spoon out the fat, and ate the skin. My chicken breasts were huge and had enough meat to feed 3 servings. If you prefer to leave the meat on the bone, you will have 2 larger portions. -- posted by HeatherFeather

This is a lovely soup to serve in the summertime, as it is served chilled. If you prefer, you can substitute sour cream for the creme fraiche. To make creme fraiche, just combine 1 cup of whipping cream with 2 tbsp of buttermilk. Once combined, cover and let stand at room temperature for 8 hours. This will make a cup of creme fraiche. Prep and cooking time does not include the chill time! -- posted by breezermom

My Spiced Butternut Squash, Sweet Potato, Carrot and Orange Soup

Mon, 25 Jan 2010 18:41:04 -0500

This was inspired by my other butternut squash soup recipe (#402703). The orange flavoring is optional. I use pre-cut, cubed squash when I can find it. You can also use a small fresh butternut squash. (The prep time assumes you are using pre-cut squash.) I use almond milk in this recipe (I like Almond Breeze) instead of cream or half and half. You can save a little time by roughly chopping the onion and garlic, because the soup will be pureed later. I do chop the ginger rather finely because it is so fibrous, and I don't want lumps in the soup that didn't get pureed. -- posted by coconutty

Menma - Braised Bamboo Shoots for Ramen Topping

Wed, 27 Jan 2010 06:09:01 -0500

I normally make this using whole refrigerated bamboo shoot that I can purchase in Japanese market nearby in California. If whole bamboo shoot is used, cut lengthwise into about 1/4 in slices first. Then cut into 1/4 inch slices. Finally cut the 1/4 inch slices into half. The slices do not need to be perfect - they will taste great when finished. You can also use canned bamboo as well (although taste will be not as good as the fresh version). Menma is granddaddy of one of ramen toppings. In old days if you ordered ramen in Tokyo this was always one of the toppings along with shoyu or soy sauce flavored soup. You can purchase this in a bottle commercially but the cost is quite high for a small bottle. I like to sometimes serve this as a snack for beer, white wine or sake. If served as snack, it is very good with sprinkling of roasted sesame seeds on top. -- posted by Rinshinomori

Grandma's Cream of Potato or Broccoli Soup

Thu, 28 Jan 2010 13:25:04 -0500

When I was a little girl, cold winter nights at my grandmothers always called for her wonderful potato soup. She would serve it with fresh hot cornbread or home made yeast rolls and it warmed you all the way to your toes. It always brings back memories of a wonderful woman who was a great influence in my life. I still miss her. Sometime she would add fresh broccoli, and it was also great. I misplaced this recipe once and searched the web over never finding another even close. Thankfully, I had given a copy to a friend and was able to get it back. -- posted by Chef #831701

Enough of the justification: this is just plain good. At the end, you've got meaty smokiness from bacon; that incredible sweetness of corn; the fruity acidity of tomato; the tender, smooth fattiness of avocado, and the sharpness of chili. It's a summer winner, one that you shouldn't even try after the first frost. -- posted by Ice Cool Kitty

The combination of ginger and butternut squash is delicious and addictive. This recipe yields a creamy soup without the use of any cream. I love to whip this soup up with my immersion blender right in the pot. This soup also freezes well. You can serve it with a dollop of sour cream if you desire, although I serve it without a garnish. If you want to make this a completely dairy free soup, use dairy free margarine (Fleishman's unsalted, or Earth Balance.) Oh yeah, and you MUST use fresh ginger. -- posted by Lee Hock

Muir Glen Fire Roasted Salsa

Mon, 08 Feb 2010 11:57:57 -0500

This is a recipe that I found on the label of Muir Glen fire roasted tomatoes with green chiles. It's a very simple salsa recipe and doesn't require the addition of a jalapeno pepper, but still has a kick from the chiles in the tomatoes. Cooking time is chilling time. -- posted by LARavenscroft

This is delicious and healthy too! The only changes I made were to substitute the fresh basil with 1 T. dried sweet basil and to omit the salt. -- posted by Scrivener1

Tomato and Fetta Salad

Tue, 09 Feb 2010 14:50:07 -0500

A Greek inspired salad of fresh tomato halves, fetta cheese, olive oil and herbs. Perfect side dish for a meal, or wrapped up in a piece of flat bread it makes a great sandwich. It is absolutely essential to have good quality tomatoes for this dish. Little mini roma tomatoes are ideal, or any vine-ripened or organic fruit. -- posted by becy

Alabama Living Soup

Tue, 09 Feb 2010 14:52:47 -0500

This recipe comes out of a local electric company magazine. We love hearty soups on the cold, damp days. This recipe fits the bill. Just place everything in the crock pot, go to work, come home to a wonderful soup. This makes a large crockpot of soup. For thicker soups you can use less broth, for thinner soups, use more. The cups measurement for the broth is up to your preference. -- posted by Jellyqueen

Picante Ranch Dressing

I tried to make a dressing similar to the one they give you with the taco salad at Qdobo. This came out different but still tasty. Yields a little over 2 cups. -- posted by the80srule

Basic Fresh Tomato Sauce

Tue, 09 Feb 2010 16:28:13 -0500

I discovered this sauce recipe by total accident, randomly paging through a 33 year old Sunset canning book. Once made, it is the BEST fresh tomato sauce I've ever tried or made. Well worth the time it takes to make from scratch. -- posted by The_Swedish_Chef
