No Grease Crispy Sweet Potato Fries « ~ Mary ~ I’ve been gearing up for our Burger Extravaganza it starts June 1st.
So what do you serve with those burgers? Fries of course! If you follow/fan us on FaceBook you’ll be able to keep up with what delectables are coming up – there are even a couple of sneak peek photos! Since we pack a lot of calories in those burgers, I like/try to keep the accompaniment on the less greasy side. What’s the trick? One year ago: Dutch Baby, Prime Rib on the Grill, Devilish Wings Crispy Sweet Potato Fries Pre-heat oven to 475°-500° Get your spice mix ready I’ve used Justin’s Smoky Paprika one, the Memphis Rub and a very basic one that consists of: 1 Tbsp Kosher Salt 1/2 Tbsp Course Ground Black Pepper 1/2 Tbsp Brown Sugar 1 Tbsp Granulated Garlic 1 Tbsp Dried Parsley Mix together and set aside 1/4 Cup Spice Mix 1/4 Cup Flour Peel, rinse and cut into strips – the thinner the strips the faster they cook! Spicy Buffalo Cauliflower 'Wings'. Looking for a healthier (and kinder) alternative to chicken wings?
Try these juicy, tangy, and spicy buffalo cauliflower “wings”!

I may even serve these at my next dinner party, they were that good! While babysitting for my 6 year old picky eater niece, I had to come up with a good lunch that would be fun for the two of us to make together. She is not a big broccoli fan (or any vegetable fan), but I told her we would add melted gooey cheese and form the patties with our hands. She was sold. Please don't laugh when you read this recipe, it is terrific and easy. I made it my own by adding homemade breadcrumbs and fresh chopped steamed broccoli along with lowfat mozzarella cheese mixed with the cheddar. Broccoli Cheese Bites (adapted from My Tasty Treasures & WholeSomeBabyFood.com): 16 oz. package of frozen chopped broccoli, thawed and drained of liquid (I used fresh steamed broccoli) 1 1/2 cup of grated cheddar cheese 3 eggs salt & pepper 1 cup of seasoned Italian breadcrumbs Let cool and enjoy!
Curry Grilled Zucchini Roll Ups. This recipe was a total accident.
Kelsey was over for dinner the other week and we both contributed whatever vegetables we had in our fridge. Our plan was to make a big pot of quinoa, grill a boat-load of veggies, top them with goat cheese + avocado, eat from a massive bowl, and feast. I started the pot of quinoa with a few Italian seasonings thrown in before thinking about how we were going to spice the veggies. Then I asked Kelsey what flavor she was in the mood for, for the veggies. Barbeque sauced, herby, smoked, Mexican, curry spiced? She jumped all over curry spiced idea. And who would have thought goat cheese + curry would pair so well together? Why not wrap up curry grilled zucchini with a little goat cheese and roasted red pepper? Print this!
