Roasted Red Bell Pepper and Garlic Dip

Sun, 23 Sep 2001 15:35:03 -0400

This is a wonderful dip for crackers, the sweetness of the peppers is mellowed with the spicyness of the garlic. I use one fresh lime for the juice, it works fine. Very elegant looking on a cracker tray and it is also good on veggies. -- posted by Dawnab

A nice change of pace from the regular tortilla-wrapped pinwheels, these rolled appetizers are wrapped in the meat themselves and baked, then sliced. And they're great for folks looking for lowcarb appetizers, too. -- posted by Julesong

Pumpkin Butter (No cook)

Sun, 06 Oct 2002 22:02:16 -0400

This recipe is a bit different than most pumpkin butter recipes because it contains "butter". It makes a very tasty spread for toast, especially over a "schmear" of cream cheese. Although I think of it as a "Fall" item (when pumpkins are in season), it can be made anytime of year because canned pumpkin is used. Prep time includes 3 hour chilling time. -- posted by Dee514

Pumpkin Butter (Cooked)

Sun, 06 Oct 2002 22:02:36 -0400

This is a "more traditional" pumpkin butter recipe, since it is cooked. Its very yummy as a spread, or used as the pumpkin layer in "pumpkin cheese pie". In a fancy canning jar, it makes a tasty gift. (Cook time includes 10 minute water bath.) You can use Libby's "Solid Pack" canned pumpkin, or your own homemade pumpkin puree for this recipe. Recipe posted on Oct.2, 2002 http://www.fcs.uga.edu/pubs/current/FDNS-E-P.html FYI - NOTE: It is true that previous USDA recommendations had directions for canning mashed winter squash, but USDA withdrew those recommendations. Any publications preceding the Complete Guide to Home Canning (September 1994 revision) are considered out of date. (FYI posted on May 21, 2008) -- posted by Dee514

Pumpkin Butter (Crock Pot)

This recipe was posted in answer to a message board request. It is from an old cookbook I have (the cover is missing, so I can't tell you which one). Since I don't own a crock pot, I haven't tried it, therefore the "cook time" is an estimate on my part (it was not specified in the recipe). -- posted by Dee514

This is my healthy version of artichoke dip. Everyone loves artichoke dip, and sometimes I will make the normal version for most people at my parties and then have this version for myself and a few other fat-conscious people. I often add some sauteed fresh spinach, squeezed very dry. Enjoy! -- posted by spatchcock

Here is my favorite Hoagie sandwich in dip form! I was so surprised to find this recipe on the Net. I wonder why I didn't think of this? I served this at a barbecue the other day and everyone raved about it. It's not a 'pretty' dip that's for sure.. but it is very good. Serve in a bowl surrounded by slices of Italian bread. Cook time is time to chill. -- posted by luvmybge

My wonderful late father-in-law taught me his favorite way to make guacamole many years ago. I wasn't too sure about the dill pickle and juice he added, but it is really good. This is the only way I make it, and my hubby too when he is in a cooking mood. We hope you enjoy it. -- posted by peppermintkitty

Served with pumpernickle cocktail rounds, sliced baguette, pita rounds or several differently shaped crackers, your guests will feel comfortable enjoying this vitamin-rich natural, delight. No left-overs guaranteed. Prep. time does not include refrigeration time to allow ingredients to "season". Can be made today for tomorrow's party. -- posted by TOOLBELT DIVA

White Bean & Pork Pate

Mon, 07 Jul 2003 20:05:59 -0400

Creamy textured white beans blended with bits of seasoned pork make this a savory pate. Serve it as a hearty first course to spread on crusty bread or to scoop upon crisp vegetables. The recipe was taken from "Sunset Magazine". Preparation time is the time it takes to slice carrot, celery, and onion. -- posted by James Craig

Rainbow Roasted Salsa & Gazpacho Bonus

Tue, 15 Jul 2003 20:07:40 -0400

Made this myself. The only non-roasted veggie is ONE, solitary garlic clove which just punches up the flavor. The salsa is not spicy at all. My mom described it as a little sweet. The salsa was a hit. I was tempted to title this Witchin' Salsa (replace the W with a B), but this is more kid-friendly. For you heat-eaters (myself included), you can add cayenne, hot sauce, or replace the jalepenos with other chiles. I just had to go wimpy because of my mom. I swear, I can practicially DRINK tobasco. My mom enjoyed the gazpacho part with a grilled cheese. You can even spread the salsa on crusty bread and call it 'Bruschetta'. Alternatively, you can GRILL the veggies -- posted by nomnom

Spinach-Garlic-Edamame Hummus

Thu, 20 Nov 2003 20:00:44 -0500

Whipped this up tonight since we have been a bit vegetable deficient lately. I LOVE hummus, as does my fiancé, so I thought this would be perfect. It turned out really well. This is based on my Lebanese friend's recipe for hummus--she is religious about hummus and tabbouleh, so I know I have the basic recipe down pat!! :-) Be sure to adjust anything you want; it is possible to make hummus more low in fat by reducing the amount of tahini or olive oil you add, and if you hate edamame, then omit it. Just make it up with water, stock, or the liquid from the can of garbanzo beans. IT occurs to me that this would be perfect for St Patrick's Day....it's completely green, with all the spinach and edamame. -- posted by spatchcock

Have no fear - there's really nothing fishy about this recipe. I got it from my Russian Culture teacher after a food-sharing day. It's a wonderful and intriguing appetizer, great with small squares of dark bread. The small amount of garlic remains raw to give it a subtle bite. I substitute the mayo for a store-bought vegan version, but any creamy mayo will work for a more traditional recipe. -- posted by groovyrooby

Can use with just about any kind of dried fruit, though DH insists you can't do it without at least the apricots. It's also great with turkey or ham on a sandwich. -- posted by Battle in Seattle
