Pro 3804 Seacoast, NH! | Subject: RE: BT recipe "book" Spaghetti Squash and ground turkey capow! This is an awesome healthy thing to eat and it's whoa easy. Go buy yourself a spaghetti squash, 1 lb of ground turkey, a jar of marinara sauce. cut the squash lengthwise, brush flat edges with olive oil, place on baking sheet flat sides down, and bake for 35-50 min at 450 degrees F. Time depends on the size of the squash...(It'll be done when soft) Saute ground turkey in non stick pan. Heat marinara sauce as needed. Add some oregano/italian seasoning to your liking. Take squash out of oven and let sit for a few minutes so they can be handled. Using a fork, scrape out the squash (holy crap it actually looks like spaghetti). Mix everything together in the pot and portion out for quick meals. So good so cheap!! |

Pro 4828 The Land of Ice and Snow | Subject: RE: BT recipe "book" Chad is nagging me for my pie crust recipe......here it is! 3 cups all purpose flour 1 tsp salt 1/2 c cold butter, cubed 1/2 c cold lard cubed 1 egg 2 tsp vinegar ice water I always make this in a food processor....its idiot proof that way. Combine flour and salt. Add butter and lard and "pulse" the mixture until you have a coarse meal with lumps the size of peas or so. Beat egg until frothy in a measuring cup. Add vinegar and enough ice water to make 2/3 of a cup. With the motor running add the liquid to the flour, and continue to run the motor just until the dough clumps into a ball. Remove the dough and split into two halves. Shape into discs ,wrap in plastic wrap and chill for 20 minutes or so. At this point it should be easy to roll out. You may also freeze the dough. Just make sure its wrapped up tightly . Thaw and roll out as needed. Pie at your fingertips whenever you want it! Edited by aquagirl 2009-12-11 7:41 PM |

Expert 1027 | Subject: RE: BT recipe "book" Putting this one up soon on my blog with some pics, but this is a big hit everywhere I have taken it and its one of those dishes that you know you can rely on to be "healthy" when there are multiple things offered especially during the holidays: Black Bean and Corn Dip: 1 Can Black Beans - Drained and rinsed 2 Cups Frozen Kernel Corn 1 (Green) Bell Pepper - Any color will work, just found best flavor with green 6-8 Roma Tomatoes - Seeded 1 Red Onion 1/3 bunch of Cilantro 3 Cloves Garlic 2 Tablespoons Sugar 1 Lime I put the corn and black beans in a strainer and run under cool water to thaw the corn and wash the beans, add to large bowl. Seed the pepper and tomatoes, dice all veggies including onion and add to bowl. I tend to cut all veggies the size of a the bean to keep consistency Mince or use a garlic press adding to the bowl. Finely chop the Cilantro and add to bowl Add 1 T of sugar Cut lime in half or quarters, juice 1/2 into bowl Stir Repeat with 1 T sugar, and other 1/2 of lime Serve immediately with chips, also goes great on tacos or any Mexican dish. The more time between prep and serving, it will begin to make more juice. I have found that leftovers of this are scarce, but make an amazing filling for an omlet. |

Expert 1379 Woodland, California | Subject: RE: BT recipe "book" TASTY Lentil & Veggie Stew (no meat!) I concocted this dish yesterday because I'm trying to make veggies and legumes the majority of my diet. It was pretty easy to make and turned out really tasty. I was quite excited about it so I thought I'd share it with the BT world. I didn't measure anything, so quantities of ingredients are very approximate. 1 pound of green lentils
Separately, in a big pot, cook the lentils according to the instructions on the package. Mine said to add 6-8 cups of water per package and simmer over low heat for 20-30 minutes. When finished cooking the lentils, dump out about 2/3 of the water. Add the soupy veggie mix to the pot with the lentils and mix thoroughly. Cut up the fresh cilantro and green onions. Grate some cheese if you want (I used gouda because that's what I had laying around). When you are ready to eat, add cilantro, green onions, and cheese and mix with a hot bowl of the stew.

Extreme Veteran 1996 Halifax, Nova Scotia | Subject: RE: BT recipe "book" Nana Elliot's excellent chocolate cake/cupcake requiring: 1 1/8 cups of all purpose flour 2 squares semi-sweet chocolate 1/4 tsp cream of tartar 1/3 cup of butter pinch of salt 1 tsp baking soda 2 egg yolks plus... 2 Tbsp boiled water add milk to make 1 cup 2 tsp vanilla extract combine flour, cream of tartar, and salt in mixing bowl. Separate 2 egg yolks into measuring cup with milk and beat with a fork until mixed. Add liquid to dry ingredients and stir until batter is smooth. Melt semi-sweet chocolate, then add butter, once melted add to batter and stir until smooth. In a cup place baking soda , then boiled water, mixing until soda is dissolved. Stir immediately into batter, then add splash of vanilla extract, stir until smooth. Pour into 8" baking pan or cupcake paper, then bake at 350 for 25-30 minutes, 15-20 for cupcakes. Cool on racks. note: the batter's only sugar is in the semi-sweet squares, so the cupcakes/ cake must be iced/glazed/frosted my icingrecipe is pretty basic- 2 1/2 sqs of Bakers semi sweet chocolate, melt, add 1/2 stick of butter, melt, add 1/4 cup of icing sugar, mix, splash of milk/cream, mix, taste, icing sugar, mix, taste, milk, taste, repeat etc., until done to taste, or you're so full from tasting you can't taste anymore. Frost cakes and eat. note: I now melt chocolate in a small corningware dish on the 'keep warm' burner of the stovetop. Its great as it warms slowly and the chocolate never burns yet melts relatively quickly. Much quicker than the old pot in a pot of water method. Enjoy! This was my grandmothers recipe and and my mothers recipe from her, both of whom were great cooks, along with some other pretty decent qualities too! May they rest in peace. Yummy stuff. |

Elite 2640 Ontario, Canada | Subject: RE: BT recipe "book" Berry Oats Very simple: boil 300ml of water, add 2/3 cup of real oats, add 1/2 cup of frozen or fresh berries. Cook until it reaches your desired texture. (I usually cook mine about 10-15 minutes.) Finish with a half a tablespoon of honey (optional). = about 320 calories and is very filling! |

Extreme Veteran 487 | Subject: RE: BT recipe "book" I posted this to another thread before I saw this one, but thought I would add it here as well. This is my basic stir-fried vegetables. It's delicious, nutritious, and can easily be scaled up to have enough left-overs for three or four meals. Tofu or chicken, if desired, should be cooked first or in a separate pan. Do a big pot of brown rice, and as it's close to getting done, chop an onion, mince a few cloves of garlic (it's nearly impossible to add too much cooked garlic -- raw is another story), mince 1/2" or 1" of ginger, and all that too a pan with a tablespoon or two of olive oil on med-high heat. Add enough red pepper to your desired spiciness level (remember the old adage -- you can always add more later, but if you add too much...). As those are cooking, chop a few carrots and add. As those are cooking, chop a zucchini and add. As those are cooking, chop up a red bell pepper and add. As those are cooking, chop up a head of broccoli and add. Generally, that timing works well and is convenient. Guage done-ness by the broccoli, which should probably cook about 5-7 minutes. If you want to add some sugar snap or snow peas, they go in about with the bell pepper. Spinach or any other green (not lettuce, but kale, bok choi, or chard would work well) goes in last. If you want to, you can fry a couple eggs at the end too -- just move all the veggies to one side, add a little more oil, drop the eggs in and kind of scramble them as they start to cook. As it's getting close, add some soy sauce (tamari is a better version of the same thing) and some sugar (or honey or maple syrup) to taste. Obviously, the particular veggies can be played with, but the onion/garlic/ginger base and the soy sauce/sugar finish pretty much guarantees deliciousness. And your house will smell delicious too. |

Champion 5312 Calgary | Subject: RE: BT recipe "book" So I have to share this thing my wife made which was awesome. We don't measure, so I will do some guessing. 2 cup brussel sprouts cut in half may quarters 1 cup broccoli 1 cup cauliflower 1 squash (I think she used acorn, it was a sickly sweet one, one I normally don't like) 1/4 pound bacon Pasta (we used spirals, big ones, probably 7-8 cups fully cooked) So, simple, fry up the bacon, use some of the grease to saute the vegetable so they are crispy and caramelized a bit. Cook the squash in the microwave until real tender. Cook the pasta. Cut up the bacon. Mix it up. Throw in some cheese if you want or not. It is awesome. Now, honestly, my wife sauteed the vegetables in water and maybe a teaspoon of oil, I figure use the bacon grease, why not huh. The point is that the sickly sweet squash is mixed up with all these nasty tasty vegetables and just a touch of bacon. I mean I'll eat squash even though I dislike it. I will eat brussel sprouts even though I hate them. Broccoli and cauliflower are okay, but, I mean, never a big hit. You mix it all up, it is awesome. And, you probably don't even need the bacon, eek. |

Stab several holes in the squash with a knife and put it in the microwave. Microwave on high (flipping the squash over halfway) until it's soft. Exactly how long to microwave it is a bit of a wag, but I cooked by 2-ish lb squash last night for 6' per side and that might have been a little long. Either way 10-12' is a lot shorter than 35' in the oven! THIS WEBSITE has a slightly different approach to the microwaving. I might try it next time. Edited by jldicarlo 2011-08-11 11:21 AM |
