Chile Rellenos Soufflé by Salad Foodie

If you're craving a chile relleno fix, give this light south-of-the-border layered soufflé a try. I looked at several recipes then came up with my own combination and it fits my need for a guilt-free alternative. To save time use canned whole green chiles, or char your fresh garden ones if desired. One batch makes 4 generous-size…

Chocolate Flax Beet Brownies by Monocot

This is one of the best recipes that I've made. Moist Chocolate brownies with Ground flax for a hit of Fibre and beets that had a slight purple tinge and a great flavor. I love them with Fresh Peaches on top!.

Sweet Zucchini Pickles by Salad Foodie

Too many zucchini - what to do? A recipe by Chuck Allen (Palm Springs) caught my eye. Expectations are high from this retired chef, so he takes this recipe as a hostess gift. It is as colorful as it is delicious and lasts about 6 weeks refrigerated. The only thing I added was small cauliflowerettes. What an attractive conversation…

Honey Walnut Bran Muffins by Salad Foodie

I concocted this recipe from ingredients I like a lot. How can you go wrong with wheat bran, buttermilk, walnuts and honey? Half of the walnuts are reserved, get sprinkled on top of the muffin batter, and the subsequent toasting deepens their flavor considerably. I use 100% whole wheat pastry flour for muffins and cookies for the…

Whole Grain Pita Bread by Salad Foodie

Out of pita bread one day and too lazy to go shop, I decided to haul out the bread machine and make pita bread dough. The recipe is whole grain, but not 100%. Still it's a notch up nutritionally from regular white pita bread. Makes 1 1/2 pounds, or ten pita breads. One serving is half of a pocket bread so theoretically the recipe…

Lemonade Syrup Base by Salad Foodie

When there's several lemons to either use up or lose out, make Lemonade Syrup Base. This recipe is from Sunkist and I have made it for years and years. It's special because you make the syrup base and refrigerate. Then whenever the dog days of summer get too much for you, make yourself a glass of lemonade without having to make a…

Chinese Almond Cookies by Salad Foodie

A basic and delicious version of the popular Chinese cookie - minus the lard! I prefer sliced almonds throughout the dough rather than the single almond on top as we often see on those at Chinese buffets.

Irish Spuds (St. Patrick's Day Cookie) by Salad Foodie

Chocolate and chewy, Irish Spuds are a unique cookie for St. Patrick's Day. The stiff chocolate-oatmeal dough is rolled into short ropes that flatten as they bake into oblong shapes resembling potatoes. Don't mind what these little rolls look like before baking, but they are sure to make the kids laugh, or to gross them out, as the…

Italian Short Pastry Dough by Sam

This a great short dough for bases of hors d'ouvres or simpley as a stand alone galleta or cracker.

English Shortbread by Sue Von Hor

Use for cookies, pie dough, excellent medium for a high end product.

Cornbread, Jalapeno Maple Bacon by Amos Miller

When the daytime temperature hits around 50 degrees and the evening plunges to 30 or lower, it is time to begin the annual maple syrup processing in our neck of the woods. We use it for many things and one of them is this cornbread. I first had a jalapeno cornbread in Texas, made by my sister's cowboy husband's aunt Netha, and…

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…

Monkey Bread by Chef Smith

Super quick!
