Curried Rice With Smoked Salmon

Sun, 22 Nov 2009 17:57:52 -0500

The idea for this quick dinner is based on a popular English brunch dish. If you don't have smoked salmon on hand, use a 7-1/2 ounce tin of salmon that has been drained and had the skin and bones removed. -- posted by Irmgard

Tuna, Green Bean & Rice Casserole (Gf)

Mon, 23 Nov 2009 15:01:17 -0500

Fee's Special Kitty Cat Renal/Kidney/Diabetes Diet

Thu, 26 Nov 2009 02:25:55 -0500

My cat, Fee, is 22 years old(!), blind and has kidney disease, but his quality of life is still great thanks to daily subcutaneous fluids, a special diet, and daily supplements that lower his BUN and creatinine. For a change of pace from Fee's usual (costly) prescription diet, I occasionally make this for him. Diabetics need fiber and kidney kitties need to limit protein. The inclusion of brown rice addresses these issues. The ingredients as given are minced, but I drop everything into my Magic Bullet yielding the consistency of pate. You can freeze portions, too - handy! Time estimate includes the mixing of all ingredients, cooked and otherwise, and the final quick cook of the mixture that includes the eggs. -- posted by Sandi (From CA)

Ground Lamb, Apricot, and Multi-Grain Pilaf

Sat, 28 Nov 2009 15:31:46 -0500

This is a tasty, easy prep, lower fat, no salt-added adaptation of #60978 by evelyn/athens based on what I had at hand, but enough different to offer on its own. Eveyn/athens introduced us to a new genre; thank you. We buy our multi-grain rice from an Asian food store. Serves 4 with a typical green salad; serves 6 with a more bean-laden salad. -- posted by SBCA Mom

Tue, 01 Dec 2009 20:30:59 -0500

A good fusion home for leftover turkey, dried fruit & water chestnuts that is healthy & tastes great. Adapted from A Taste of Thai. They called for a package of their Yellow Curry Rice and I changed to use what we have on hand (big tub o' Mae Ploy yellow curry paste & brown rice LOL). That also includes substituting a handful of sultanas or fresh cranberries for the dried cranberries as needed. We have also added chopped lightly blanched bok choy to really make it a one dish meal. -- posted by Buster's friend

Saucy Pork Chops

Sat, 05 Dec 2009 12:08:28 -0500

I got this recipe out of a cookbook that uses 5 ingredients or less. It's the simplest way to make tender, tasty pork chops. I always hated pork chops growing up, only ever eating a dried out, fried, and breaded chop. I refuse to make them this way. These are delicious and the sauce is very good over the rice. -- posted by Mrs. Regan

Simple Chicken and Rice (With a Kick)

Fri, 11 Dec 2009 17:18:18 -0500

So easy, but so tasty. I like to top it with some finely grated cheddar. And, of course, I use quite a bit of Tabasco as well. Prep time noted assumes you've got the cooked and cubed chicken on hand already (but it does allow for basil chopping and can opening). -- posted by Cluich

Roasted Acorn Squash With Wild Rice Stuffing

Fri, 11 Dec 2009 17:37:10 -0500

Acorn squash is a satisfying side when roasted and topped with a pat of butter and a drizzle of maple syrup, but filled with a hearty stuffing of wild rice, pecans, and cranberries, its a meal in itself. Loaded with comforting flavors, this dish brings fall home, but it can be made any time of year. The wild rice mixture can be made up to 2 days ahead; keep it refrigerated in an airtight container. You can make the stuffing up to 6 hours ahead; keep it covered in the refrigerator. extracted from Chow.com, haven't tried this yet but posted here for safekeeping -- posted by endeavour

Holubsti--Ukranian Cabbage Rolls

Tue, 29 Dec 2009 00:45:38 -0500

I spent 18 months in central Canada, serving a mission for the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints. While I was there, I fell in love with the people and the food, specifically Ukrainian and Filipino food. The cabbage rolls were my favorite, and when I returned to the US, I began searching for recipes, but could never find one that I liked. This recipe comes from me combining elements of two or three different recipes that I found. The resulting recipe is surprisingly easy--if a bit labor intensive. I included instructions to make a sauce, but, if you run out of energy, the stuff in a can works just as well. If I want to do a homemade sauce, I usually do it a day or so in advance., By omitting the meat, this can be a vegetarian dish. By also omitting the sour cream and using margarine instead of butter, it can be vegan. -- posted by CorianneW

Rice Timbale (Like Baked Arancini)

Tue, 29 Dec 2009 01:55:55 -0500

The arancini (fried rice balls) that are sold in the bars and cafes of Sicily are among my favorite foods. Here is a recipe that is easier for the home cook, and since it is baked and not fried, the fat content may be lower. This recipe has endless variations; I've posted the most complicated version (it's not that hard) which can then be unmolded for a dramatic presentation. But simpler versions abound -- for example, a timbale made in a springform pan and filled simply with ham, peas and a thick bechamel. Chopped spinach or eggplant could be added to the rice. The filling ingredients can be prepared the day before. Just an observation: to make it kid-friendly, keep it simple. -- posted by MariaLuisa

Lemon and Artichoke Risotto With Shrimp

Tue, 29 Dec 2009 14:07:38 -0500

I adapted this recipe from Rachel Ray's 365: No Repeats cookbook. Be careful not to overcook the shrimp or they will be rubbery. The estimate for the amount of liquid will vary depending on the several factors, but you should be safe with at least 6 cups of pre-heated liquid, you can expect your rice to be done once you have added 4-6 cups. Start checking for texture after the 4th cup is added. -- posted by Erindipity

Fried Fish With Rice (Kuwaiti & Emratie)

Tue, 29 Dec 2009 14:20:44 -0500

Fish with rice is often served in homes in the Arabian Gulf. Kuwaitis in particular love their Zubadi (Silver Pomfret) fish that is local to them but can be found in the frozen section of many Middle Eastern & Asian shops. (You may have to degut them yourself). While some prefer to eat them dry with rice, others like ourselves, make Recipe #387327 to serve as an accompaniment. This recipe is a very tasty combination from three sources which all deserve credit, Sa-mak ma-ga-lee - Fried Fish from From "The Complete United Arab Emirates Cookbook", by Celia Ann Brock- Al Ansari, Mtabag Simach from "Cardamom and Lime: Recipes from the Arabian Gulf", by Sarah Al-Hamad, and http://mimisrecipes.blogspot.com. -- posted by UmmBinat

Sun, 03 Jan 2010 17:16:03 -0500

Since starting Weight Watchers, I have missed the flavour of Mexican foods. But with calorie-filled toppings and wraps, they're not always diet-friendly. So I came up with this meal- it has the flavours of Mexican food without the majority of the calories and if you have extra points, you can even add a little guacamole or sour cream on top! It's worth using fresh salsa, not the jarred stuff for this recipe- it adds a lovely fresh bright flavour. Using extra lean beef, this recipe has a total of 19 Weight Watchers points by British points calculations. -- posted by Shuzbud

Five-Jewel-Rice-Stuffed Chicken Breast With Hot Sour Sauce

Fri, 15 Jan 2010 07:33:00 -0500

The five "jewels" of the stuffing are the rice itself, almonds, water chestnuts, scallions & garlic -- none of which requires a trip to a specialty market.;) Garnishing with sesame seeds is entirely optional (white and black) however, it makes a beautiful presence.

Easy nice comfort food. Acorn squash stuffed with wild rice, cherries, pecans and a creamy cheesy topping. I prefer a blend of wild and white for this, but you can really use any rice if you don't like wild rice. And hey, this is the time to take advantage of the boxed rice. Uncle Bens is what I use, but there are many brands available, and I just use the quick cooking kind, but any will work. My favorite is to serve this with roast chicken, but if you want something lighter ... serve with a fresh green salad topped with roasted pears. -- posted by SarasotaCook

Vegetarian Brown Rice Casserole

Tue, 26 Jan 2010 13:31:10 -0500

Vegetarian main dishes often require hours of chopping and cooking, and a laundry list of ingredients but not in this dish. This easy casserole turns a can of vegetarian lentil soup into a hearty casserole with the help of nutritious, ready-to-serve whole-grain brown rice, canned vegetables, and cheddar cheese. Because all of the ingredients go into the casserole already cooked (canned vegetables are simply cooked vegetables in a can), all they need is a few minutes in a microwave before they are delightfully done and ready to serve. -- posted by Chef #1365024

Stuffed Peppers With Pork and Rice

Thu, 28 Jan 2010 15:54:39 -0500

Making the most out a little minced pork, this dish makes for a tasty and different lunch. Originally I came up with a slightly different version without meat which was inspired by holidays to Cyprus, this is a twist on that. -- posted by AskCy

Left-Over Pork Roast Jambalaya

Thu, 28 Jan 2010 16:14:37 -0500

I wanted to make something special out of my left-over pork roast and improvised on a Jambalaya recipe I had used from a Simple and Delicious magazine - the family loved the results. This is not a spicy dish as I had toddlers eating it too but it could very easily be spiced up. -- posted by Chef Learnee

Solo Chicken Mushroom Pilaf

Mon, 01 Feb 2010 10:03:52 -0500

There is usually just enough flavorful liquid in the final dish to prompt me to eat this with a spoon. The natural flavoring of the mushrooms is similar to MSG and when paired with the sweetness of sauted onions, that was enough flavor for me. However Cooking is a Creative Sport, so feel free to add spices. -- posted by Bill Hilbrich

Uyghur Polo (Pilaf)

Fri, 05 Feb 2010 08:53:02 -0500

Polo (a Central Asian variant on the word pilaf) is a food staple found across Central Asia, including Kazakhstan, Kyrgyzstan, Uzbekistan, Turkmenistan, Tajikistan, and parts of northwestern China. The different peoples of each region have their own takes, and their own flavors, for the recipe. This recipe is for Uyghur polo, the variant of the dish found in China's Xinjiang Uyghur Autonomous Region. Uyghur food is on the whole closer in taste to Indian, Persian, or Mediterranean food than it is to conventional Chinese food. I credit this recipe to my Uyghur language instructor. The recipe can be a challenge to cook correctly at first, but the challenge will prove well worth the effort because it is absolutely delicious. -- posted by mpevans

Mommom Faiella's Italian Sausage Scallopini

Fri, 05 Feb 2010 10:10:45 -0500

The aroma of the herbs and mushrooms cooking on the stove will be very pleasant to your senses. This is almost straight out of my grandmother's recipe book. The only changes my mother made to this recipe were to substitute canned mushrooms with fresh mushrooms and to add a bit more seasonings. -- posted by The Foodgitive

Mother's Always Right Stuffed Peppers

Fri, 05 Feb 2010 10:20:14 -0500

Be warned, listen to my mother- when she says to be careful with the peppers when straining because they may fall apart, it means be careful with the peppers when straining because they may fall apart. I broke 2 out of 3 peppers because of my lack of direction following. I had to use the broken peppers and cut them in half, laying the filling on the top. -- posted by The Foodgitive
