We Like It Raw – Raw Food Goodness: [Recipe] Lemon Balm Berry Ice …

September 2, 2010recipeNo Comments

Lemon Balm Berry Ice Cream by Heather Pace

Last summer I tried lemon balm in a recipe for the first time. I was so impressed! This tangy refreshing ice cream is packed with the lemony tasting, soft, fuzzy green herb. Lemon balm, part of the mint family, has been used throughout the ages to reduce anxiety, stress, pain, and indigestion.

You can substitute these berries for any other berries of your choice.

Ingredients

1 1/2 cups cashews
1 cup water
1 cup packed lemon balm leaves
1/2 cup blueberries
1/2 cup raspberries
1/2 cup agave
1/2 cup lemon juice
2-3 drops lemon essential oil*

Directions

Blend all but all ingredients until smooth and creamy.
Chill the mixture in the fridge for at least 4 hours.
Process the liquid through an ice cream machine according to the manufacturers instructions.
*Substitute lemon zest to taste.

Eating Vegan: Recipe to Take Charge of Your Unruly Mint – Eat …

September 2, 2010recipeNo Comments

A lot of gardeners shy away from mint because of its invasive reputation. This recipe is my favorite revenge. My kind, old, brassy neighbor was the first person to share the joy of passing along plants with me along with the recipe for Risi E Bisi.

Awesome any time, use your own easy to grow mint instead of shelling out money for the packets of herbs you’ll find at your grocery store.

Risi E Bisi
3/4 cup shredded carrot
1 10 oz pack frozen peas
3 cups cooked brown rice
1/3 cup thinly sliced green onions
2 tbs fresh mint, sliced thinly
1/4 tsp salt
1/4 cup rice vinegar
1 tbs oil

Combine carrots and peas in a colander. Pour 4 cups boiling water over both. Drain and toss together with rice, green onion, and mint. Stir in salt, rice vinegar and olive oil. Yields 4 servings.

Easy Chocolate Dessert Recipe

Chocolate is one of the oldest processed foods enjoyed over the past millennium. It came from the tropical tree called cocoa. This tree is native to South America, Central America and Mexico. The seeds of the cocoa tree are dried and fermented and finally grounded and liquefied. As a result of these processes, pure unsweetened chocolate is formed.

There are different kinds of chocolate. Each is classified according to its composition and color. Milk chocolate is the combination of sugar, cocoa butter and milk. It is considered not a true chocolate because of the absence of cocoa solids formed from the processes involved in production of pure chocolate. White chocolate can be consumed by animals. The addition of sugar and fats makes up the third kind of chocolate. Dark chocolate has high cocoa content and is believed to have health benefits by reducing the occurrence of heart attack. One example of dark chocolate is semisweet chocolate which is used in cooking recipes. Sometimes vanilla is added for a more pleasing aroma.

{ bittensweetblog.com } » Blog Archive » Recipe: Cajun Chicken Pasta

September 2, 2010recipeNo Comments

Remember how I said I used to only eat at chains and order the same thing over and over again?  Well, this dish is one of them.  I used to go to Chili’s on a weekly basis (I know, I’m ashamed) and I would order this dish, their strawberry lemonade, and an extra slice of Texas toast.  Hello carbfest!

Well, I decided I needed to just make it at home and save myself about $20 a week.

So, I did.  And I made it over and over again.  Every time I make it, it tastes even better than the last time and it tastes closer to Chili’s original dish!

I made it again last week when my parents were coming over for dinner.  My dad always forgets that I’m the daughter that actually cooks so he’s amazed every time he comes over for dinner!  And aren’t my parents sweet?  They brought over dessert – leche flan and ube.  My favorite non-pastry filipino desserts!  Well, I guess one could argue that flan is really mexican, but let’s just say I like it either way.

Cajun Chicken Pasta
An original Chili’s recipe
Serves 4

Print this recipe!

You’ll need:
- 4 boneless, skinless chicken breast halves
- 4 tsp cajun seasoning
- 4 tbsp butter or margarine
- 3 cups heavy cream
- ½ tsp lemon pepper seasoning
- 1 tsp salt
- 1 tsp black pepper
- ¼ tsp garlic powder
- 8 oz cooked penne pasta (drained)
- 2 roma tomatoes, diced
- fresh shredded parmesan, to taste

Directions:
Slightly moisten chicken with water. In a large resealable plastic bag, shake chicken and cajun seasoning until chicken is thoroughly coated. In large skillet sauté chicken in 2 tbsp. butter, over medium heat, turning whenever necessary.

When chicken is about half-way done, grab a second skillet and combine heavy cream, 2 tbsp of butter, and remainder of seasonings over medium heat, stirring occasionally. When cream mixture begins to bubble, add the pasta and turn off heat. Stir well.

When chicken is cooked through, place on cutting board and slice into strips. Spoon pasta and sauce onto large serving plates (2) and top with chicken, diced tomatoes, and parmesan. Throw a thick, garlicky slice of Texas toast on that bad boy and enjoy!

Note: if you really want flavor, add some chili powder and about another tbsp of all the other seasoning into the bag!

Thoughts are like fishes///: Kimchi recipe

September 2, 2010recipeNo Comments

Kimchi is a Korean food and probably my favourite pickle. Here’s the recipe I use.

Cut up a cabbage (wombok is best but regular will do)Add a couple of tablespoons of salt and seal in a container and put in the fridge.After a day or so, drain the cabbage. I usually loosen the lid, turn it upside down and let it drain while sitting on the edge of the kitchen sink for 10 minutes.Add 125ml rice wine vinegar, 125ml soy sauce, couple of teaspoons of chilli powder, couple of teaspoons of cayenne pepper, couple of cloves of grated garlic, a few centimetres of grated ginger knob, few tablespoons of sugar. Adjust the ratio of everything but the liquids to suit your preference or spice tolerance.Reseal the container and put it in the fridge. It’ll keep for four weeks but is ready to start eating within an hour or two.Add cut up shallots when serving it up and you can drizzle a bit of sesame oil on too or sesame seeds. I often add the shallots to the kimchi in the container after a day or two when the cabbage has shrunk after absorbing the liquid.The process leaves you with about half the cabbage you started with, after it’s lost water and broken down in the brine.

Red capsicum is the best thing to have with it. Kimchi is great stir fried with vegies and noodles or rice or you can add it to salad leaves. It’s great with fried food like fish, bacon or calamari rings — the vinegar cuts through the grease and it’s good for digestion.

veggie pasta bake $9.62 recipe / $1.20 serving | News Issues Trends

September 2, 2010recipeNo Comments

I found this recipe over at Polywig while doing my daily browse through food-photo sites. The photos made it so enticing with all of it’s vegetables and melted cheesy goodness… it instantly went onto my “to cook” list.

This week I was in the mood for a hearty pasta dish so I pulled this one from the list. It’s pretty tasty and I’ve been eating it happily for the past couple of days but it’s not exactly mind blowing (not like the Asian Sticky Wings or anything). I’d probably rate the recipe a 7 out of 10 but I still wanted to post it because the recipe has good bones. You could add any number of things to transform it into a truly spectacular dish. I might, for instance, add a can of tomato sauce next time for a little more saucy tomato punch. If you’re into canned “cream of” soups, that would act as a great binder and bring everything together nicely too.

Oh, and BTW, Whole Milk mozzarella is absolutely crucial. Most mozzarella that you see in the store is part skim and truly has only part of the flavor as a result. Whole milk mozzarella is usually packaged in a square block, not a long rectangle like most cheese blocks. Don’t be tempted to substitute.

Total Recipe cost: $9.62
Servings Per Recipe: 8-10
Cost per serving: $1.20
Prep time: 15 min. Cook time: 45 min. Total: 1 hr.

STEP 1: Boil a large pot of water and cook the macaroni noodles according to the package directions (boil for 10-15 minutes or until al dente). Drain and set aside until ready to use.

STEP 2: Chop the onion and mince the garlic cloves. Cook both in a large skillet in 2 Tbsp of olive oil over medium heat until soft (about 5 min.). Add the sliced mushrooms and cook until they are soft and brown in color (a dash of salt will help).

STEP 3: Preheat the oven to 350. Add the undrained can of tomatoes and the thawed package of spinach to the skillet. I did not drain either one so that the juices would add more flavor. Heat all of the vegetables through then season to taste with salt, fresh ground pepper, nutmeg, cayenne and red pepper flakes (or whatever seasonings you like).

STEP 4: Stir the cooked vegetables into the pasta (I used the original pasta pot as it was the only thing large enough to hold everything). Dice the mozzarella into small chunks. Combine the parmesan and breadcrumbs in a small bowl. Add the mozzarella and parmesan mixture to the pasta and stir until everything is evenly combined.

STEP 5: Coat a large glass baking dish with non-stick spray and transfer the pasta mixture into it. Cover the dish with foil (to keep the top from drying) and bake for 25-30 minutes or until the cheese has fully melted.

Step By Step Photos


Cook the pasta (boil water, add pasta, boil ’till soft), drain and reserve until ready to assemble the casserole.

This recipe starts with onion, garlic and olive oil… as do many delicious recipes. Cook ‘em till they are soft.

Add the sliced mushrooms and continue to cook until they are soft, brown and have released their juices (a dash of salt helps this along).

Add the can of tomatoes and the thawed spinach. I didn’t bother to drain either because I wanted all of the flavor they had to offer.

Mix the veggies together and heat through. Is this not a gorgeous mix of vegetables? Quite flavorful too!

Stir the cooked veggies into the pasta. The juices from the vegetables will help loosen up the pasta if it has gotten stuck together.

Dice the mozzarella up into small pieces. The smaller the pieces, the more evenly distributed the cheese will be throughout the casserole.

Mix together the parmesan and bread crumbs in a separate bowl then add them to the pasta along with the mozzarella.

Stir it all up and do everything you can not to dive into the pot face first… because it looks that delicious.

Pour the whole mix into a well oiled baking dish and bake for about 30 minutes at 350 degrees. Cover with foil to keep the pasta on top from drying out.

Eat and enjoy.
