Marmalade Cafe Recipes

Low carb, very tasty and very easy to make!! I have had WLS so use chicken thighs because they are so moist but chicken breast can be used. It is up to you as to whether you remove the skin and/or the bone but this will affect the nutritional info.

These are a lovely light muffin. You could also use any jam or jelly you like (even diet marmalade), or change the peel or juice. To make it even lighter use half white and half wholegrain flour.

Easy slaw with no fatty mayonnaise.

These appetizers go great for summer time get togethers or for a holiday appetizer or brunch buffets. Make them fun with novelty toothpicks.

Serve these fruit kebabs at your next party.

After one sip of this savory pumpkin soup, you will be surprised to find it packs a little heat.

Modified from " Low Fat Sweet and Sour Chicken with Brown Rice" to make it serve 2 & use products readily available. make it Beachie, amount of veggies increased & sugar free orange marmalade used. Used mostly frozen veggies as they are out of season & makes for quicker prep.

[Optional to serve over whole grain, brown rice. / separate recipe]

Just like a PB&J sandwich, this recipe can always be made with basic pantry staples. I like strawberry jam, but feel free to use grape jelly or even orange marmalade if that’s your favorite. You can even get wacky and use almond or cashew butter in place of the peanut butter.

This is a sensational sandwich that I had at a trendy little cafe in Michigan, while I was there visiting my family. Now I make it at home for my hubby and our friends for a brunch or for a quick, & interestingly delicious snack!

Pronounced ma-zhe-dra, this is a vegan Middle Eastern bulgur wheat, lentil and onion pilaf that is incredibly yummy! I first had it at a now (unfortunately) defunct Middle Eastern cafe and the full-blooded Syrian owner told me what the ingredients were, so after they closed and I was craving this dish, I threw together the ingredients in amounts I felt were similar to hers and it turned out pretty authentic tasting! You can also use equal amounts of whole-grain brown rice instead of the bulgur, but I prefer the bulgur wheat. Nutritional info listed is using the bulgur.

This is (a) an improvement on Corner Bakery Cafe's Mom's Chicken Noodle Soup; (b) a large pot of vitamin-rich, naturally sweet, nutritious, chicken soup that (c) is very easy to make, (d) freezes well, (e) feeds about a dozen hungry people, and (f) I make throughout the year after having and making many different variations on a theme for many years

Although it can take a little time to get the chicken off the bones, it's SO worth it! Also, if you don't want to use a whole chicken or shredding it just isn't your thing, you can use chicken parts or whole breasts instead, cut off the big chunks, and dice or shred them. They'll take less cooking time, too.

There's nothing better for you, especially when ONLY chicken soup will do! It's not ambrosia (nectar of the gods), but it's as close as I can get! I appreciate your feedback and input. Enjoy! SparkPeople rocks my world! Nancy, a/k/a KEEPITMOVING
