Healthy Chickpea Recipes - Gluten Free Goldfish Crackers by Aaron

Here's a childhood favorite that's actually healthy. Using the powerhouse vegetable chickpea. Yes, it's used for other recipes than just Hummus. Mom was right - eat your vegetables. So here's your chance! My recipe is free of the top eight common allergens.

Sugar Pumpkin Curry Cream Soup by Amos Miller

We grow sugar pumpkins and after the harvest, I always break them down and puree them and pop them into the freezer for a long Winter's use. In addition to pies (of course), tarts, cookies, breads, custard and sauce - I love sugar pumpkin soup. As you can imagine, this member of the squash family is somewhat sweeter, has fewer seeds…

Here is my famous Happy Saint Patricks Day Guinness Chili Loaded Baked Potatoes! WE love these!

Peanutty Oatmeal Cookies by Salad Foodie

A different take on peanut butter cookies. The oatmeal adds chewiness, and the chopped peanuts add extra crunch. For an over-the-top serving, spread a cookie with a smear of peanut butter and dab of jelly.

Banana Bread with Streusel Nut Topping by Salad Foodie

My all-time favorite banana bread recipe was unseated when I came across this scrumptious streusel-topped version. A tastier bonus for a bit more effort!

Pumpkin Nut Bread with Streusel Topping by Salad Foodie

The comforting smell of fall and winter is in the air as you bake this crunchy and moist pumpkin spice bread. Make the whole loaf for the family or divide into smaller loaf pans for gifting. I love to have an extra loaf in the freezer for those days you just "need something."

Zucchini Golden Raisin and Sunflower Seeds Bread by Salad Foodie

I haven’t tasted a better zucchini quick bread than this. The moist golden loaf makes a great seasonal or hostess gift. I almost tampered with perfection on my trial run with the recipe (from Lou Seibert Pappas’ A Harvest of Pumpkins and Squash), but then decided to go with the original version, and am I ever glad I did - it’s…

Perfect snack for game day.

Leftover Oatmeal Raisin Nut Muffins by Salad Foodie

Leftover cooked oatmeal joins basic quickbread ingredients to make a delicious batch of muffins. Rather than wasting excess cooked oatmeal, freeze in measured batches for using up in baked goods such as this recipe. It's surprising what a win/win this can turn out to be.

Favorite Gingerbread Cake by Salad Foodie

Gingerbread cake addicts, rejoice - this recipe makes the right size gingerbread cake for a crowd! Lightly moist and lightly sweet, this version I developed over time is a good fit for a holiday dessert or treat for company. I like just a dusting of powdered sugar rather than a frosting. It’s my gingerbread cake FAV - hope you’ll try…

Roasted Banana Bars with Browned Butter Pecan Frosting by Salad Foodie

This recipe was a finalist in Cooking Light Magazine's "Twenty-five Favorite Dessert Recipes" several years ago. The notion of roasting a banana intrigued me so I was up to the challenge of trying it out. MY VERDICT: THEY ARE VERY TASTY AND I WILL MAKE THEM AGAIN. However, they are more cake-like than bar-like, and the extra steps,…

Oatmeal Chocolate Chip Bars by Salad Foodie

An oatmeal streusel mixture serves as both crust and topping in this delightfully chewy cookie bar. The secret ingredient in the filling is purchased caramel topping. These bars are very sweet so cutting them in smaller portion sizes is appropriate. It just extends the sublime enjoyment of the treats - unless you just keep snitching…
