Calculate Food I Ate For The Day Recipes

Stretch your party budget by turning pricey smoked salmon into a tasty dip! It's ready in no time and is sure to impress your guests.

Use as a dip for veggies or a spread on pita and sandwiches.

looked through the existing recipes and didn't find one that was identical; used less olive oil - so save a little pasta water to help thin to taste. not outrageously spicy but quite tasty.

This is a great soup for a cold day. Goes great as a starter course but is also hearty enough to hold its own at lunch.

A spicy/sweet marinade with watermelon and jalapenos. It is wonderful with pork, especially grilled pork kebabs (see separate recipe)

I devised this to use up ham scraps from Easter Ham. It is yummy and good for sandwiches or on crackers.

I really enjoy this "comfort food" on a cold, rainy day.

Real comfort food for days when you just can't look at another salad.

Inspired by the Spark 30 day Fit Food Challenge.

Great with pumpkin bread or muffins or with biscuits

This is a high-fat, 'special occassion' (or SMALL portion only!) salad... But SO good! :)

Peanut butter based cole slaw that goes GREAT as a side dish to any Asian flavored fish/poultry/meat. My husband hates cole slaw and couldn't stop eating this!!!

This is a recipe modified from something I invented a long time ago, back when I did survival training. The original "recipe" was squirrel meat, browned on hot rocks, along with cattail roots, wild-grown carrots (probably an old farm), one mint leaf, some wild spices, and water. I'm sure there was some ash and flies in there somewhere; that's what you get when you make stew on rocks and an uncovered metal container over an open fire. Don't worry; this recipe doesn't contain anything gross.

SparkPeople doesn't have mint, cattail roots, or squirrel as ingredients. Since most of you don't live near wetlands with cattails and you can't buy squirrel meat anyway, I substituted a parsnip and a large (3/4 pound) potato for the cattails and beef chuck for the squirrel. You can use any meat you like. I've seen goat, lamb, and other red meats in stores; go wild!

Please comment, including how many servings you get (I guess-timated four cup-plus servings) and how well it tastes with different combinations of meat and spices. It isn't for everyone, but many will like it.

This creamy, tangy dip does double duty: with mint, it's a perfect pair with Greek fare; with coriander and cumin, it cools down spicy Indian curries.

These sweet and spicy shrimp will be the star of your next barbecue!

VERY versatile recipe! Experiment with different extracts and fruits to find your favorite combo! Nutritious cool and creamy breakfast that you can grab and go!

One day I decided to substitute a can of black beans for garbanzo beans while making hummus. t might actually be better than garbanzo bean hummus. I added the basil because I had some growing in my garden.

kid friendly grown up meal

My picky children will eat every bite of this and we still get to eat food designed for adults.

Dominican Sazon is the base for most Dominican dishes. Rice, beans, meats

This is a refleshing and creamy cold soup. It is very easy and packed with vitamins.

This is a variation of one from the Moosewood cookbook that I've made every summer for years. Even kids like this!
