Corn Fritters. I have really been enjoying the fresh local corn.
I have mostly been eating it off the cob with salt and butter, which is great, but now I was looking for something different. I recalled seeing Michael Smith on Chef at Home on the Food Network making these corn fritters that looked pretty good. Since corn was not in season at the time I had bookmarked the recipe to try later. His recipe had cheese and there was maple butter, but I was thinking more Mexican. I dropped the cheese and maple butter and added some cumin, cilantro and lime and then topped them with some salsa. Ingredients:2 cups of corn1/4 cup cornmeal1/4 cup flour1 teaspoon cumin1 egg1 green onion (chopped)1 handful cilantro (chopped)1 tablespoon lime juicesalt and pepper to taste2 tablespoons oil Directions:1.

Maple Glazed Carrots. Spinach Rice Gratin Recipe. I opened my sister's freezer the other day and was greeted by stacks of individually portioned, vacuum sealed lasagnas.
My sister is seventeen months pregnant right now - kidding, but that's how she feels. She told me they've been stock-piling easy, meals they can simply reheat or pop in the oven once the baby arrives. This got me thinking about healthy, baked, single-pan recipes. I threw this together the other night using a bunch of things I had on hand - brown rice, spinach, black olives, crumbled tofu, a bit of cheese, pine nuts, and a few eggs. It's the kind of thing you could prep in advance and pop in the oven anytime it's convenient. Come to think of it - you could bake portions of the rice mixture in individual ramekins - that might be cute. Update: Look who made his appearance yesterday. :) Preheat oven to 400F degrees.
In a large bowl combine the rice, spinach, and tofu. Baked Penne with Roasted Vegetables. This pasta dish was my last supper.
I went out with a bang, three types of cheeses and somewhere around 3 pounds of vegetables. (What a way to go.) And what I mean to say is that this was my last supper before the moratorium on exercise was put into action by my orthopedist. He wants me to not move for two months. Seeing as how I haven’t taken off more than two days in a row for the past four years…I don’t even know how to begin to do that. I am a mover by nature. But somehow, I have to try. Here’s the other thing. Recipe for Roasted Green Beans with Mushrooms, Balsamic, and Parmesan. (Todays pick for A Month of Daily Phase One Recipes is these delicious Roasted Green Beans with Mushrooms, Balsamic, and Parmesan.
You might think of green beans as a summertime vegetable, but I first made these in January 2009, and since then this has become the most-pinned recipe from my blog on Pinterest. Apparently a lot of people like green beans! And these beans are so delicious, you won't even think about Phase One while you're eating them.) Back in the days when most of my exposure to green beans meant the ones that came from a can, I wasn't too much of a green bean fan.
Then Costco started carrying these lovely thin French beans, and I fell in love with green beans. I do think that roasting vegetables is the greatest trick to add to your cooking repertoire, because nothing concentrates and sweetens the flavor of vegetables more than roasting. Lightened-Up Cheesy Pastitsio. Yes you read that correctly.
Leave it to Cooking Light to give me a cheesy pasta dish that I can indulge in enjoy to a minimum. I wouldn’t suggest making this every single night to lose weight, but it’s definitely AMAZING and a great substitute for heavier pasta dishes. Plus it’s super eeeeasy. Hell to the yeah. I chose to use beef since the BF refused ground turkey {stubborn}, but that would be a perfect healthier alternative! Yeah I chose to walk the safer route and used lean beef. Lightened-Up Cheesy Pastitsio Ingredients 1 box uncooked penne (I use Dreamfields) Cooking spray 1 lb. 93% lean ground beef 1/2 Tbsp olive oil 1 medium onion 5 garlic cloves, minced 3/4 tsp. salt 2 cups fat-free milk 1 (14.5 oz) can diced tomatoes, drained 6 oz fat-free cream cheese 3/4 cup (3 oz) shredded fat-free mozzarella cheese 2 Tbsp chopped fresh parsley Instructions Preheat broiler.
