This is a Better Homes & Gardens New Dieter's Cook Book, Meredith Books, 1st Ed. 1992, page 62 recipe, with 1 TBSP butter added to start the sauce.
I love sweet potatos better than white and this is a nice alternative. This is not an exact science. All you need is a very soft cooked sweet potato (microwaved is okay too), and butter, salt, and possibly brown sugar (or sugar altherative) to your taste.
Try these with my chicken and biscuits recipe. The broth is not included in the nutritional info since you don't actually eat it. I used 1/2 the amount of bouillon than the container called for.
Quick and easy way to make a healthy guacamole to use as a dip with baked tortilla chips or alone as a snack.
I have come to love roasted veggies! We eat them at my home 2-3 times a week. It doesn't matter how many veggies we roast, they are always a hit, and they always are gone by the end of dinner. This is an excellent side dish to almost any meal. It is healthy, and you can tailor it by adding vegetables that are in season (grape tomatoes are good, poke a hole in them first). I find that this recipe is great for large groups, because, aside from the prep (a bunch of cutting and chopping), it is easy to make a lot of food with minimal effort. Be creative, and enjoy!
Healthier version of basic fried rice. Feel free to swap any veggies that are in the refrigerator for the ones I used!
I wanted fries. So, I developed this recipe to give me the taste. Not as good as fried. But, much more healthier
This is an April 2020 Covid-19 stay-at-home-inspired bread. Very dense, delicious and nutritious. So healthy you shed 1 year with each bite. I'm entering 4th grade next year.
Special Equipment: Covered Dutch Oven cast-iron pot of good quality (i.e. Le Cruset); 2 Cotton towels but not terrycloth because the fibers will stick to the dough; Cooling wire rack or other cooling surface that will allow air to flow around your baked bread; Because there are 20 hours of inactive time, we make the dough in the evening so we have freshly baked bread for the next evening.
Hints:
1. When adding water to dry ingredients, mix thoroughly but dough will be coarse, lumpy and craggy - not smooth like a regular dough. If dough is too sticky, just add a little more flour. If too dry, add more water a tablespoon at a time. Bread dough is very forgiving.
2. Do not use a fat (butter or oil) in the dutch-oven pot. Leave it dry. Bread does not need a fat, and it will NOT stick in the pot.
3. Don't have all of the nuts or seeds? Don't use them or add ones you do have. Improvise!
Fast easy low-fat salad, great do when you have to many Cucumbers... Is there such a thing. LOL=
