Spinach “burgers” Spinach “burgers” I promised something a bit more “booty-friendly” and here it is! These are high in protein, low in carbs and absolutely delicious.

(or you can do spinach balls) Heat a non stick skillet over med-high.

Some may have to wait their turn, depending on your skillet size. Serve on your choice of bread product, or eat them “naked”.

The site crashed. I was booted out of WordPress. What did I do? Well, moderately calm. Weeelllll… maybe calm isn’t really the right word. I shook my laptop, threw my head down on the keyboard, and wailed in a pitch that probably left my dogs eardrums vibrating for an hour. I lost a few drafts, but at least it’s mostly fixed and everything is okay again in the world. (The server was full. Moving onwards and upwards. The first key to an incredible stew is browning the ingredients. The second key is the long cooking time. The third key is proper seasoning. Pearl onions are adorable little pains in the butt. Or you can buy them peeled, frozen. I used potatoes in carrots in my stew, but traditional Boeuf Bourguignon usually plays host only to onions and mushrooms.

See the browning on those succulent little mushrooms? Boeuf Bourguignon 1. 2. 3. Serves 4 to 6. Rustic Potato Pizza. Potato pizza has a special place in my heart. This simple rustic pizza made with just a few basic ingredients (no tomato sauce) is pretty impossible to find in Swedish restaurants. So the only time we eat it is when we make it ourselves, and it always makes me think of Rome. There you can get it in almost every restaurant but they taste best bought from any of the many hole-in-the-wall ovens. They bake them incredibly looong and you buy a slice of it by showing with your hands how big piece you want. Normally they are baked with lots of olive oil, wheat flour and parmesan cheese, we have made a little healthier version of this recipe from the lovely blog The Italian Dish, by using less olive oil, rye flour and goat cheese.

The rye flour makes it a little bit trickier to knead, but you end up with a very crunchy and tasty crust. We have a special reason for posting this right now. Potato Pizza with Goat CheeseMakes 1 large pizza, 16 small slices Pour warm water in a medium size bowl. Apple Soup Stock Recipe - Relish Blog.

I can tell because most of our counter space is covered with ripening tomatoes and drying bean pods, and shoveling out enough space for a mixing bowl or a chopping block is nearly impossible.

Despite these obstacles, or perhaps because of them, on the first Sunday of fall, I decided I wanted pumpkin pie. Luckily, I had roasted a pie squash the previous night. Though there are some fabulous tried-and-true varieties that I plant every year, I also like to try out new vegetables every year — I’ve found that in our extreme climate, it doesn’t pay to plant only a single variety of anything. So this year, as I have for the past 10 years, I planted ‘Uncle David’s Dakota Dessert Winter Squash’ (Fedco Seeds), which has proven an excellent producer of sweet, flavorful squash that keep well into the winter. This year’s rookie squashes were ‘Snack Face’ a naked-seed (hull-less) pumpkin (Jung Seeds) and ‘Eastern Rise’ winter squash (Fedco Seeds).

Mix in the order given. Bamboo Shoot, Mushroom, and Long Bean Stir-Fry Recipe. Nutritional information Serves 6 30 minutes or fewer The clean, simple flavors of this stir-fry get a hint of spice from dried chiles. Using whole chiles lets you control the heat more easily than with chopped chiles or chile sauce. Check Asian markets for fresh bamboo shoots that are boiled and vacuum-sealed. The pale yellow cones taste so much better than canned.

You can substitute green beans for the long beans, though their texture isn't quite as firm. 2 Tbs. toasted sesame oil 2 dried chiles de arbol or dried cayenne chiles, thinly sliced ½ lb. king oyster mushrooms, cut at an angle crosswise into ¼-inch-thick slices (2½ cups) 2 medium carrots, cut into matchsticks (1½ cups) ⅓ lb. long beans, cut into 1-inch lengths (2 cups) ½ lb. cooked bamboo shoots, cut lengthwise into ¼-inch-thick wedges (2 cups) 2 Tbs. low-sodium soy sauce Heat oil in wok over medium-high heat. December 2011 p.45. Sunday Recipe: Baked Egg in an Avocado with Parsley and Goat Cheese. A high protein breakfast that that you won’t be able to stop making. Earlier this year, pictures of eggs baked in avocado were the darling of the online food porn world. Not until recently did I test out the recipe myself, and the result was so good I wonder how I ever lived without this creation.

The concept is simple: bake an egg in an avocado. If you were looking for a way to put all those eggs from your backyard chicken coop to use you should certainly put this recipe on the breakfast list. Avocados are jam-packed with fiber, potassium and vitamins, and if you like morning meals that are high in protein, this one’s for you. Because you can top off the eggs with pretty much any ingredient you can think of, you are only limited by your own creativity. Ingredients 1 avocado (or more depending on how many you are serving!) Optional: You can garnish the egg with anything you want. Directions Cut the avocado in half and remove the pit. Crack an egg into each avocado half. Easy home made mayonnaise. Very delicious easy peasy home made mayonnaise Once you start making your own mayonnaise, and realise just how simple and tasty it is, you wont be interested in the preservative-laden shop-bought options anymore.

I recently did some experimenting with making aioli and adding a variety of flavours which led into making this very quick and easy mayonnaise. Aioli is wonderful, a bit richer and uses olive oil, but nothing beats a good home-made mayonnnaise to have on hand for sandwiches. I have added a lot of flavour to this recipe, but you can just adjust it however you like. Easy home made mayonnaise Ingredients 2 egg yolks (free range and very fresh eggs) 2 T red wine vinegar 1 T lemon juice 2 t Dijon mustard 1 t salt 3 cloves of garlic crushed (totally optional) a pinch or 2 of sugar black pepper (as much as you like) 500ml / 2 cups of canola oil Instructions In the food processor briefly blend the eggs, vinegar, lemon, garlic, sugar and mustard.

Copyright DrizzleandDip 2013 Like this: Salted Chocolate-Peanut Butter Marshmallow Squares. Wedding brain, part III. I made an appointment to have my wedding dress altered. The tailor told me to bring the undergarments and shoes I’ll be wearing to the big day. I responsibly took note in my calendar to make sure I wouldn’t forget. The day I went for the alterations, I packed my new shoes, I packed my new undergarments, and I headed out the door, rather self-satisfied for having remembered these items. Just one problem. A critical component was conspicuously absent. Um, THE DRESS?! Yes, because the tailor didn’t explicitly mention the dress in her list of things to bring, I was thisclose to showing up at the dressing room with just my wedding underwear. That would have been a very difficult moment to recover from smoothly. “Could you take an inch off the butt cheeks please?

The worst part was, I didn’t even have the dress in my possession – it was still hanging in a bag at the store (which was closed, of course). SERIOUSLY.

Kale Salad with Quinoa, Tangerines and Roasted Almonds. My Kale Crush Something has frozen over. Or maybe pigs are flying. I actually, um, like kale.

I like to remove the ribs- which can be challengingly, jaw-numbingly chewy. Here's how. After washing the kale leaves and patting them dry, lay them on a cutting board, fold them at the rib, and use a sharp knife to slice the rib off the leaf. Slice the trimmed leaves crosswise into ribbons. Toss the kale into a bowl and drizzle with extra virgin olive oil. Blackberry and Apple Cobbler. Make Newsletter - Healthy Recipes - goop.com.
