Default Helpful hints when making MRC Turkey Lasagna from Recipe book

I make the turkey lasagna with zucchini as well. I hate the tomato supplement so I skip it and the zucchini always makes it watery so I have a new trick to that. I actually use a mandolin slicer to slice thin strips of the zucchini (long or round, it doesn't really matter in the end) and I then place them on papertowels, spread out, cover with more papertowels and press down trying to get out all the excess water I can. I'll go through this several times, change the papertowels a few times and then go for it. During baking process if still wet I will drain out some of the water. This has made it a much better lasagna. I might also try the ground buffalo in substitute for the turkey next time. I love it!! Have a great day :0)

I take 1 pound of ground bison, put in some mustard, garlic powder, onion powder 1 egg. Use a muffin tin and make 6 of them. Bake at 400 until browned. After the water/fat cooks out, two of them should make 4 oz of meat. Not sure how much the egg throws stuff off but it holds it together. You could just use egg whites also. Add mustard for topping and done! Freeze the other 4 for later meals. Sorry I don't measure out seasonings so you will have to judge that on your own.

Here's a recipe for turkey sausage that I just LOVE LOVE LOVE!! It uses a few more spices than the MRC recipe does.

1 lb. ground turkey breast
2 t. dried sage
1 t. sea salt
1 t. pepper
1/4 t. marjoram
2 packets splenda
1/8 t. red pepper, optional
1 pinch ground cloves
1/4 t. cumin
1/4 t. curry

Where do you buy bison? I've never seen it at the grocery store, but I guess I've never looked for it. How good does it taste? Really good or is it just tolerable? (Great idea to put the meatloaf in a muffin tin to control portions!)

I buy mine at our Neighborhood Walmart between the beef and pork. It only comes in small square packages minced at this store, and it is tasty, great substitute for beef, I started using it for my family's meals too, when ever a recipe calls for ground beef I use ground bison...it is a bit drier but I add olive oil when cooking.

Talking Chili Relleno

I developed this recipe when I was at the MRC in Colo Springs.

You'll have to adjust this for your own programs.

All you need:

yellow cheese
eggs
roasted chilis

spray a 9x13 with Pam

I like to make this into 6 servings.

If you have 2 eggs per meal serving, then use
12 eggs, scrambled

If you have 3 oz of cheese per meal serving,
18 oz of cheese, shredded

Again, decide how many oz of chilis are a serving for you
x6, cleaned, veined and seeded, open them and lay them flat

Lay chilis in the pan in a single layer
Cover with cheese, shredded
Pour half of the eggs
REPEAT (I like to have cheese on the top)

Bake at 350 for about an hour. Make sure the eggs are done in the middle.

OMG!!! This is sooooooooooo good!!! I took it to one of the cooking classes that we had in CSprings and everyone LOVED it! It was really good with the mexican cole slaw that's in the MRC cookbook!!

Default Pancakes

Pancakes:
1/2 cup dry oatmeal
2 eggs
1 tsp of vanilla
1 pckt of splenda
1 pinch (or about 1/4 tsp) of baking powder
a sprinkle of cinnamon

Place dry oatmeal in food processor and grind until a course powder. Pour into bowl. Add remaining ingredients. Whisk together until you see bubbles forming in batter. Heat non-stick pan, spray with pam butter cooking spray, use large spoon to place 2-3 spoonfuls of batter into pan making each pancake about 3 inches round. Cook on each side until golden brown.

Recipe makes 2 servings = 1 starch, 2 oz protein each. Will need to add 2 oz of protein to get full breakfast serving.

I bought my first spagetti squash and I have searching for recipes. I know they are here but I am having problems finding them. So much to wade through even using the search engine.

So....if anyone could share some I would really appreciate it.

Thank you all for taking the time to post these recipes, I was getting really board with eating the same things over again... Loved those Lemon Poppy Muffins... Better than eating 2 eggs every morning!

Default New Dish

I made dinner tonight and it turned out really good in my opinion.

1 chicken breast
zucchini
yellow squash
green onion
eggplant
paprika (quite a bit)
sea salt (a dash)
olive oil (dribbled over the eggplant)

Put it all in heavy duty tin foil, wrapped it up tight and cooked it in the oven at 350 for an hour. Weighed the veggies after they cooked because they will cook down quite a it.

I'm not one to cook without a recipe but I thought what the hey! Even my 8 year old ate it!
