Instant Pot Garlic Potatoes

A sugar-free version.

Base Ingredients for Turmeric Smoothie

Low call veggie filled Asian soup

Yield 4 cups per recipe

I never have ice cubes to make smoothies, so I use frozen fruit. My husband and my picky 10 year old son say these are better than Jamba Juice! It has protein, dairy, carbs and is relatively low fat!

From the post punk kitchen

Lots of protein, packed with calcium, vitamins and minerals. Use any veggies you like. Sodium probably a little lower than the calc. because you don't actually eat all of it - some is drained away in the marindade.

2 tablespoons refined coconut oil, divided
12 oz Brussel sprouts, trimmed and quartered
1 large carrot, peeled and sliced into thin half-moons
1/4 cup pine nuts
1/4 cup fresh basil
1 cup loosely packed fresh cilantro
1 cup finely chopped scallions
2 cloves garlic, minced
1 tablespoon fresh minced ginger
4 cups cooked and cooled jasmine rice [see note]
1/4 teaspoon red pepper flakes
2 tablespoons soy sauce or tamari
1 tablespoon fresh lime juice
1/2 teaspoon agave
Sriracha to serve

i-peanut-butter-recipe.html

This is an old family recipe. To make it completely vegetarian you can replace the beef bouillon with vegetable bouillon. The corn flakes can be replaced with Special K Cereal too - we just usually had corn flakes on hand.

from the New York Times. The recipe in the newspaper doesn't provide the nutritional information - I estimated as best I could. Didn't include cheese or egg.

Traditional mediterranean stir fry breakfast. Great for a weekend morning alternative to "sausage & eggs". It's not really an omelette because the eggs are optional & even if you do put them on, they are just "drizzled" over the top, not stirred in.

Serve it with chopped cucumbers, feta cheese & black olives. Dip into it with whole wheat pita bread.
Serve with tea (traditional mediterranean tea is similar to Orange Pekoe, served black, with sugar or sweetener, but no milk).

As a side, you can also take whole hot banana peppers or the long green chili peppers & roast them directly on the burner (med heat, no pan necessary - just watch them carefully). They will turn a bit black on the outside. Flip them over to cook evenly.

Variations on the melamen:
-Use with Hot Banana Peppers for a yummy "hot" variety
-Add mushrooms if you like them (I don't which is why I don't add them).
-Eliminate the egg, it is not a necessary ingredient (This makes it vegan friendly.)
-If you like eggs, then add 2 egg-whites instead of 1 whole egg for lower cholesterol version.
-This is SO YUMMY with butter (add 1-2 tbsp at the same time as the tomatoes), if you can afford the fat & cholesterol.

This will be my first attempt at making my "own" Veggie Burgers.

Rozoni Healthy Harvest with peppers and onion

Slow cooker meal

This is really yummy, and you can save a few calories based on your pita pocket choice.

This recipe is from the back of the Thompson's Green Lentils package. It's a good staple. Low in fat, easy to make.

To kick start your day with lots of veggies, plus good carbs and protein. To reduce prep time in the morning, it helps to chop and/or pre-sautee the vegetables the night before. The shredded parmesan and garlic powder add a great touch. You can also add pepper, basil, and a dash of salt.

Really tasty with peanut butter and strawberries on top.

This is good as a side dish (1/2 cup serving) or served as a main course (1 cup serving) over brown rice.
