Veggie Stir Fry with WATER CHESTNUTS??? well....almost!!!
so last week i tried the jicama for the first time in my life!! and while it does have a slight faint apple resemblance...i immediately thought of water chestnuts!!! so that got me to thinkin....and you know where that always leads me!! jaja (thats haha in jicama language!!) VEGGiE STiR FRY with JiCAMA CHESTNUTS!!!! http://farm9.staticflickr.com/8442/7...f294be2009.jpg http://farm9.staticflickr.com/8304/7...d469744624.jpg NO NEED TO PEEL!!! just slice to desired thickness and "cut out" your water chestnuts!!! http://farm9.staticflickr.com/8318/7...ce55200270.jpg you can even make fancy ones!!! http://farm9.staticflickr.com/8457/7...5c6ab22f60.jpg i love making squash chips but i save the crook neck parts for soups or veggie stir fry!! i find that making stir fry is an easy way to use up leftover bits and bobs of veggies!! http://farm9.staticflickr.com/8031/7...d8b22d994a.jpg you can use ANY veggies YOU like!! i used jicama, green onions, yellow squash, broccoli, red, yellow and orange bell peppers!!! http://farm9.staticflickr.com/8439/7...c8aede8c21.jpg 2 beautiful cups of veggies!!!!! http://farm9.staticflickr.com/8314/7...8d21cb546d.jpg this is what i used....but you can also use EVOO but that faint taste of toasted coconut really gives the dish a fantastic taste!! i used 2 tsps coconut oil!!! http://farm9.staticflickr.com/8162/7...9c73f57c0a.jpg first i heated up 3 cloves of diced garlic...but i love garlic!! so use the amount YOU like!! http://farm9.staticflickr.com/8456/7...7ec3a493a6.jpg then add your veggies, and some salt and pepper!! saute until desired crispness....i like mine a little firm!! http://farm9.staticflickr.com/8322/7...5a43791b74.jpg i added 1 TBSP amino acids and some red pepper flakes... what can i say... i'M A SPiCE GiRL!!!! :rofl: http://farm9.staticflickr.com/8442/7...f294be2009.jpg ENJOY!!!!!!!!!

P.S. Put in a request to our Publix for frozen rhubarb since you pictured a pack in one of your recipes. I missed buying 30# of fresh frozen up in Michigan by a week. You order it and then they only have it to pick up for one week. Of course, when we're not there. :cry: Molly |

C.R.U.N.C.H.Y!!!!!! http://farm9.staticflickr.com/8171/7...cc7d7bb75e.jpg WANNABiTE????? |
Oh my. Those look sinful.
Might have to leave work early today to pick up some coconut oil. Luckily I have a couple packets of Proti-thin cappuccino at home. |
rainbow,
Okay, they look great, BUT I am not a cappuccino person. Not really even a thin drink person. All I do is shakes from pudding mixes. What's your thoughts on a pudding mix or does it have to be a drink mix? Molly |

i don't think i have any pudding mixes...because i didn't like them either and traded them away....but i will double check and see if i have any and i will give it a test if i do and let you know. :) i am so glad i didn't give the cappuccino mix away!!! can't wait to make these cookies again!!! |
ok...i only had a half packet of lemon pudding mix....to test with...because i traded all the pudding mixes away because i didn't like them.
the recipe stayed the same despite half the packet...i tried with less egg whites but the mixture was too crumbly....and the only thing i added was 1 tsp lemon extract to enhance the flavor it wasn't much dough....so i decided to make tiny cut out lemon cookies. http://farm9.staticflickr.com/8441/7...b8a6ee565f.jpg the dough was a lot like play dough...easy to roll with my hands and easy to cut out. http://farm9.staticflickr.com/8455/7...d0091e8bdd.jpg because they were so tiny, i baked for 10 mins and they were pretty done...starting to brown on the bottom. they were very light inside...a little chewy....and tasted lemony... these are not bad!!! not as good to me as the cappuccino ones....which were extremely CRUNCHY!!! and these....using the ip lemon pudding....STILL HAVE THAT IP PUDDING AFTER TASTE...that does not appeal to ME. but if you like the IP lemon pudding i am sure you'd LOVE these lemon cookies!! :) a little crispy edge and soft chewy center!! hope that helps!! |
I seriously am in love with your thread, rainbow! Thank you so much for all the delicious recipes!
For the summer squash chips, what temp., and how long? Thanks again! Sara |
your original muffin recipe

Hey Rainbow, I looked through the whole thread and couldn't find your original "english muffin" recipe! Please help :?::?::?: |
Quote:
sometimes i make 1 thicker one and sometimes i make 2 thin ones, your choice ENGLISH MUFFINS Ingredients: 1 IP Crepe Mix 1/2 Tsp Baking powder 1/2 Tbsp Olive Oil 1 dash salt 1 oz skim milk (from morning allowance) 6 TBSP Water (just enough to make it a thick but pour-able batter) You can add all the ingredients into a magic bullet hopper and use the flat blade to blend or: if you don't have a magic bullet... Whisk together dry ingredients. Add oil and mix in until it starts to form crumbles. Add milk and mix well (it will become a doughy batter at this point) add enough water so that it is thick but able to be poured. Let it sit a few minutes to thicken. Spray a nonstick pan with Pam and spray inside your English muffin rings also. Put your pan with the muffin rings on the stove and get it nice and hot then pour your batter into the ring. You really don't have to fill them much more than half way. This will make the bottoms nice and crisp. once it has cooked and gotten a nice crispy bottom ....cooked on medium heat for about 3 mins, then I just slipped my spatula under the entire ring and flipped carefully!! cooked on the other side about 3-4 mins. I let it cool on the rack for a few minutes http://farm9.staticflickr.com/8141/7...a87f6fc723.jpg sliced in half!! http://farm8.staticflickr.com/7259/7...e6d154ba02.jpg Optional: then i toasted each half in the toaster on bagel setting, so to only toast the one side that was not already toasted!! IT WAS THAT DELICIOUS!!! |
