Forum Post: What is a new recipe you've tried lately?

Sara — Thu, 14 Apr 2011 15:50:00 GMT

I tried these for breakfast last weekend and they are a.w.e.s.o.m.e. I will definitely be making them again. The best part is that these did good with my blood sugar (many new things I've tried lately sky rocket my sugars, but this one didn't!). Has anyone else tried a new recipe lately?

Here it is:

Bacon Cheddar Wraps

1 can of crescent rolls

8 slices of bacon, cooked and crumbled

1 cup of sharp cheddar cheese, grated

4 peppadew peppers, chopped (optional)

cooking spray

Instructions: Spray a baking sheet with cooking spray. Preheat oven to 375. Lay crescent rolls out (do not have them rolled together, instead "undo" them so that they lay flat). Lay the cheese, bacon, and peppedew peppers on the crescents. Fold over and make sure to seal the edges. Bake for 20 minutes. Flip over and bake for another 5-10 minutes.

Forum Post: Fennel the Food for Kings and Queens- A Great Low Carb Snack

ClaudetteSanDiego — Sun, 03 Oct 2010 21:46:00 GMT

Always on the search for tasty low carb snacks. You can add fennel to the list. It has a wonderful licorice taste and is wonderful eaten raw or cooked and can be thrown into tomato sauce or soups for added flavor.

Kings and Queens of France and England fell in love with it. Thomas Jefferson imported fennel seeds from Italy even before the Declaration of Independence was written.

You can roast the white bulb, slice it toss in olive oil and bake it in the oven. It will taste like sweet onions with a little crunch. Chop the bulb and green stalks and use as a base for tomato sauce.

It is a great snack for children or anyone who tire of having the same old vegetables for snacks.

What other exotic vegetables have you tried to cook to add that special zing to meals ?

This is from the JDRF San Diego Forum. Look at all the posts on this site and feel free to leave comments and ideas.

Bring roasted fennel to a dinner party. Spread a herbal cream cheese spread on it as you would do for celery. You can also spread peanut butter as you would on celery. It makes for some really good finger food at a party.

Stephanie Martin — Tue, 06 Jul 2010 19:58:00 GMT

I just found a Rachel Ray recipe for Fettuccini with Garden vegetables and Greens. I havent tried it yet but am planning on cooking it tommorrow night so ill let you know how it is! Heres the recipe though in case you wanna try it out too.

salt

12 oz fettuccini (im using wheat)

3TB extra virgin olive oil

1 small onion, very thinly sliced

2 cloves garlic, chopped or sliced

2 med zucchini,cut julienne or matchsticks

2-3 small firm eggplant, about 1 lb, peeled and cut into batons

1 small red bell pepper,seeded, rounded ends trimmed and thinly sliced

generous handful basil leaves, shredded

1/2 cupgrated pecorino, plus more for serving(im using asiago instead)

freshly ground black pepper

8-10 leaves green or red leaf lettuce, shredded

Bring a large pot of water to boil over medium heat. When boiling, salt the water and add the pasta. Cook until just shy of al dente.

Meanwhile, heat 2 tablespoons evoo in large skillet over med heat. Add the onions garlic and vegetables as you chop them, zucchini, eggplant and red pepper. Season vegetables with salt and cover, cook until tender, about 10-12 minutes.

Just before draining the pasta, add about 1 cup starchy cooking liquid to the vegetables. Drain the pasta and add to the vegetables, tossing to combine. Stir in the basil and the cheese and a little black pepper, to taste. Transfer to a serving bowl and top with the shredded lettuce. Serve with an extra sprinkle of cheese and drizzle with the remaining tablespoon of evoo.

Forum Post: Goat Cheese and asparagus fritata

nannimae — Tue, 15 Jun 2010 02:41:00 GMT

My husband got excited about this recipe and brought it home. I'm basically writing it from memory, it was so easy!

Dice and saute a scallion in an oven-proof skillet (cast iron) over medium heat; when limp, add sliced mushrooms, saute until golden brown. Remove mushrooms, add 6 oz diced fresh asparagus, cook until tender (recipe called for cooking in butter, but I think olive or canola oil will work, too). Remove asparagus from pan.

Whisk 2 eggs per person, milk, salt and pepper to taste; add to pan, arrange vegetables over eggs, cover, and cook over med heat until eggs are set (10-12 minutes).

When eggs are set, remove cover, sprinkle 3 oz goat cheese over eggs, put under broiler (on low?) for 2 min, or eggs are golden brown.

Enjoy!

Ok, I'll get this started. Know we're all looking for low-carb recipes. This chicken recipe is great - and easy. Enjoy!

3 Tblsp of jalapeno/pepper jelly

Preheat oven to 375. Mix jelly, vinegar, honey and dijon in smallish baking dish (like a pyrex bread pan). Dip chicken in the mixture (both sides) and lay in bottom so it soaks. Put in oven and cook for 15 -18 minutes. Take out of oven, put medium-thick slice of jack cheese on top of each ***. Cut chile to make 2 flat pieces. Lay a piece over each piece of cheese.

Forum Post: No milk hot chocolate!

stilledlife — Tue, 16 Feb 2010 21:24:00 GMT

Um, so I am very allergic to milk. Most of the time it isn't to bad, I just can't share in most holiday meals and no pizza.

However today I invented the best No Milk Hot-Chocolate recipe ever. Here is what you need.

2 tsp coconut milk
1 tsp coco powder
8 oz light chocolate soy milk

Set stove to medium heat pour the 8oz light chocolate soy milk into sm. sauce pan, add the chocolate powder and coconut milk. Whisk. Heat until warm.

The drink will taste very rich and nutty.

Use the rest of the soy milk to make curry!!

Forum Post: Hungry Girl Crispy Chicken sandwich

Jason — Wed, 09 Dec 2009 05:47:00 GMT

Just tried this for the first time tonight. Made one for the whole family and it seemed to be a hit.

Ingredients

1/3 cup Fiber One bran cereal (original)
Dash each salt, black pepper, garlic powder, and onion powder, or more to taste
1/4 cup fat-free liquid egg substitute (like Egg Beaters Original)
3 oz. raw boneless skinless lean chicken ***
1 tbsp. fat-free mayonnaise
1 small hamburger bun (light, if available)
2 slices tomato
2 hamburger dill pickle chips
1 leaf romaine lettuce

PER SERVING (1 sandwich): 283 calories, 3.75g fat, 940mg sodium, 45g carbs, 11.5g fiber, 5.5g sugars, 28g protein

Saw this on Rachel Ray one day and thought it may be worth a shot. Only thing I would recommend is maybe less salt but add your own spices (maybe extra garlic powder) for flavor. Otherwise it can be a little bland.
