I Apologize for the Delay

I know some of you are counting on me to post my Summer Week 2 Challenge Recipes and Shopping List information.  However, due to a family death, week 2 has been pushed off a week, but expect to see the information soon! Food is essential.

In the interim, I will again encourage everyone to look into a local co-op, such as The Neighborhood Garden.  Salad and fruit are always easy, and that is what we have had a lot of this week and I didn't even have to think twice about what to buy or anything.  With the co-op, I knew I had a bag of produce coming that would be AMAZING, and this past week, that is exactly what I needed.

Recipes:

Cereal & Milk is self explanatory as is yogurt, ½ apple, cheese (I normally try for 1 ounce portions), baby carrots (I normally eat about 10 per snack), raisins (I used individually packaged raisins), steak, baked potatoes (just add your favorite toppings like butter, chives, sour cream, cheese, bacon bits, etc. – just make sure if you are counting calories to watch how much you add…) and last but not least ice cream.  In other words, anything that isn’t listed below should be easy enough for you prepare – if you need a recipe, please feel free to message me.

Bread:

Ingredients:

1 cup water

2 tbsps olive oil

3  cups bread flour (I normally use 1 ½ cups whole wheat bread flour and 1 ½ cups white bread flour or 3 cups White Whole Wheat.  My favorite brand of flour is King Arthur, but Pillsbury works great as well and is usually less expensive).

2 tsps sugar

½ tsp salt

1 pkg active dry yeast (or equivalent – I buy bigger container since we use it ever week)

Cornmeal

Directions:

Heat water to approximately 100 degrees.  It should feel warm to the touch, but not hot.  Add sugar to water, and stir.  Then add yeast to water. 

While yeast is becoming nice and active, measure flour (*tip, spoon flour into measuring cup and don’t pack in, and you won’t have to worry about measuring sifted flour).  Combine the flour and salt.  Add the oil and yeast mixture to the flour and knead dough until smooth on a lightly floured surface. 

Place dough in lightly greased bowl; cover with plastic wrap and then put a towel over it, place in microwave or someplace warm and let rise for 30 –  40 minutes.

Next, sprinkle a cookie sheet or piece of stoneware if you have one with some cornmeal.  Punch the dough down and cover with the bowl you just had it in and leave on counter for 15 minutes. 

Finally, shape the dough into a loaf.  Cover it with the towel you used earlier and let it rise for 30 – 40 more minutes. 

Preheat the oven to 375 degrees, make a large deep slit diagonally in three places evenly spaced across the width of the loaf.  Sprinkle with a little bit of water (wet your fingers and flick water over the top 2 or three times) then bake for 25 – 35 minutes.     

Note – if going to use later in the week or need multiple loaves – be sure to make the bread and freeze it.  It preserves the freshness!

Chocolate Chip Cookies:

Ingredients: 

2 ¼ cups all purpose flour

1 tsp baking soda

1 tsp salt

1 cup shortening

¾ cups granulated sugar

¾ cups packed brown sugar

1 tsp vanilla extract

2 eggs

2 cups chocolate chips

Directions:

Preheat oven to 375 degrees. Mix all dry ingredients. In a separate bowl, beat eggs well.  Add remaining wet ingredients to bowl of eggs.  Add dry ingredients until mixed well.  Spoon cookies on cookie sheet and bake for 10 minutes.  (Makes 2 – 3 dozen).

Pot Roast with Stew Vegetables:

Put Roast, one can French Onion Soup, and stew vegetables in a crock pot (I normally quarter an onion, chop up the celery and carrots and use small red potatoes and leave them whole) in the Crockpot. Cook on low 6-8 hours.

**Vegetarian Option** Set aside some vegetables and either prepare them in a separate Crockpot (I have a couple) or put them in the microwave for 10 minutes while you are preparing everyone else’s dinner plates.  I chop them up and drizzle the veggies with a little olive oil, minced garlic, butter, salt, dried thyme and pepper!   If you cook them in the crock pot, add a little vegetable stock to make sure they don’t dry out or burn up!

Brownies:

My favorite brownie recipe is the Toll House brownie recipe.  It is so easy and VERY delicious.  Follow this link for the recipe. 

Spanish Rice:

Ingredients:

2 TBSPs canola oil or olive oil (I usually use garlic infused Canola Oil)

1 onion, chopped fine

1 garlic clove, minced

2 cups of medium or long-grain white rice

3 cups vegetable stock

2 TBSPs tomato paste

1/2 cup of diced fresh tomatoes cooked and strained (usually 1 decent sized roma tomato)

¼ tsp dried oregano

1/2 tsp salt

½ tsp garlic salt

Directions:

In a large skillet brown rice in olive oil, medium/high heat. Add onion and garlic. Cook onion rice mixture, stirring frequently, until onions are softened.
In a sauce pan bring stock to a boil.  Immediately reduce heat to a simmer, add tomato sauce, oregano, and salt. Add rice to broth. Cover and simmer 15-20 minutes.

Tamales: 

My favorite Tamale Recipe is Alton Brown’s – follow this link to view and use his recipe (that man is AMAZING!).  I usually halve his recipe and sometimes even quarter it. 

Frozen Blueberry Yogurt Skewer:

Place blueberries on wooden skewer (I use the longer ones).  Place Vanilla Yogurt (I use Chobani Greek Yogurt) on a plate.  Roll each skewer of blueberries to coat the blueberries.  Place the skewer on parchment paper and then place the skewers on the parchment paper in the freezer.  Let freeze for 2+ hours.  I usually let freeze and then place them in a Ziploc bag to use throughout the week.

Lasagna:

First, I always start off by making a homemade sauce.

Sauce:

1 large (28 oz) can of tomato sauce, 1 can of tomato paste and then season to taste.  I add about 4 cloves fresh minced garlic, ¼ tsp black pepper, 1 tsp Italian Seasoning, ¼ tsp garlic salt and 1 ½ tsp onion powder.  I let the sauce cook while I then prepare what I call the Lasagna Guts

Guts:

Mix together 1 large package Ricotta cheese, ½ lb. Freshly Shredded Mozzarella Cheese[i] and 1 cup bread crumbs (the best bread crumbs are the ones you make yourself – to make bread crumbs, use stale bread or toast fresh bread in the oven on 350 until slightly crunchy, put in the food processor and process until desired crumb size – I like fine!). 

If you desire a meat filling, my husband loves to use sliced Italian meatballs, and I highly recommend this. 

Preheat your oven to 350 degrees.  Line the bottom of your lasagna pan with a little sauce.  Cook your noodles and place a layer on the bottom.  Next, layer in some sauce and “guts”.  Repeat until your dish is almost full, then top with remaining sauce and ½ pound shredded mozzarella cheese.   

Bake covered for 45 minutes, then uncover and bake for 15 more minutes. 

Flan:

Ingredients:

1 ¼ cups sugar

2 cups heavy whipping cream

1 tsp vanilla extract

3 eggs

Directions:

Preheat oven to 325 degrees.

Pour 1 cup sugar in warm pan over medium heat. Constantly stir sugar until it browns and becomes caramel. Quickly pour approximately into a baking dish, I use a large round corning ware piece, tilting it to swirl the caramel around the sides. 

Scald cream in a saucepan.  While waiting on the cream to get warm, whisk the 3 eggs and ¼ cup of sugar together.  When the milk scalds, remove from heat immediately and stir in vanilla.  Then add it slowly to the egg mixture.  Blend till smooth and then pour into baking dish. 

Cook for 45 minutes then check to see if done every 3 minutes after, to ensure you do not over bake.  It should take no longer than 60 minutes it takes me only 50 on average. 

Green Chile Chicken Enchiladas:

The Sauce:

In the food processor, place 1 onion and 28 oz. or 2 cups worth of green chiles (you can buy them online direct for Hatch) in and blend until smooth.  Dump into a saucepan, add 1 cup vegetable stock, ¼ tsp ground cumin, ¼ tsp coriander, ¼ tsp dried oregano and 2 cloves garlic minced.  Bring to a boil and then simmer while you prepare chicken. 

Chicken:

In a 13x9 pan place 2 cups of chicken broth and a pinch of poultry seasoning, stir, then place and 3 breasts of chicken in the pan.  Place in oven and bake on 350 for about 30 to 45 minutes.  Remove from oven and shred the chicken. 

Place the shredded chicken in a skillet with ½ a block of cream cheese cut up into cubes and ½ a can of cream of chicken soup.  Mix well until creamy and well blended.

The Whole Enchilada:

Next, put some vegetable oil in the bottom of a pan.  Heat to medium heat.  Get out a 13 x 9 pan (I usually rinse and reuse the one I just cooked the chicken in).  Fry corn tortillas on each side until they just bubble up in the middle (you just want them soft  - you are not trying to make them crispy at all).  Remove from oil, spoon some chicken mixture in and roll tightly. Repeat.

**Vegetarian Option** replace the chicken with cubes of pepper jack and cheddar cheese.

Final Preparation:

Preheat the oven to 350 degrees.  Cover the enchiladas with green chile sauce then top with shredded cheddar cheese.  Bake covered for 20 minutes and then bake uncovered for 15 more minutes. 

Sopapillas:

There are many easy recipes out there for sopapillas.  They are all very similar and I have yet to find one that tastes bad.  I frequently use All Recipes to find recipes and try a few.  The sopapilla recipe I use most often can be found on their directly website using this link, but feel free to experiment with what you like best. I serve this dessert with honey. 

Pizza:

The Dough:

Okay, it’s confession time – I’m in love with Alton Brown.  He is a mad genius in the kitchen!  I use his pizza dough recipe.  Follow this link to find the most fabulous pizza dough recipe so you can later be transported to a slice of heaven.   I normally follow the recipe but divide the dough into individual sized pizzas.  You can make this fresh on the day of or make earlier in the week and freeze until ready to use later. 

The Sauce:

Ingredients:

2 cloves garlic, minced

1 TBSP olive oil

1 14 oz can tomato puree

1 14 oz can crushed tomatoes

1 TBSP sugar

2 tsps Italian Seasoning

½ tsp onion powder

½ tsp dried basil

¼ tsp garlic salt

1/8 tsp crushed red pepper flakes (optional)

In a large sauce pan, saute garlic in olive oil.  Then add remaining ingredients.  Bring to boil, reduce to simmer while you gather your toppings and round up the family. 

Putting it all together:

Have everyone make pizzas and put whatever toppings they want on them.  This is fun, although sometimes messy!

Apple Pie:

The crust:

For the crust follow this link for a great recipe or use your own.  My adaptation of this recipe calls for 1 cup bread flour and 1 cup all purpose flour.

The Filling:

I have found that I really like the filling in this recipe.  I don’t always use granny smith apples, but regardless it always turns out and is super delicious!  I also always add 1 tsp of Cinnamon Powder to this recipe.

Meatloaf:

Meatloaf in my house is really like an oversized hamburger.  The recipe is so simple.

Ingredients:

2 lbs beef

1 egg

½ cup bread crumbs

2 TBSPs ketchup

Pepper

Garlic salt

Onion Powder

Directions:

Preheat the oven to 350 degrees.  Then just take two pounds of beef, 1 egg, ½ cup of bread crumbs, 2 TBSPs ketchup and mix it up then sprinkle the top with pepper, garlic salt, onion powder and then mix it up again.  Form into a loaf and baked for 30 – 45 minutes.

Chicken Nuggets:

Cut the chicken breasts into nuggets.  In a mixing bowl, stir-up the following ingredients:

¾ cup corn starch

¼ tsp salt

¼ tsp pepper

¼ tsp paprika

¼ tsp baking powder

1/8 tsp baking soda

1/8 tsp xanthum gum

½ cup  milk

2 TBSPs Parmesan Cheese

Dip chicken nuggets in the mixture.  Bake on 350 for 20 minutes.  Take out and flip them over, then bake for another 20 minutes.

Sweet Potato Fries:

Preheat the oven to 450 degrees.  Peel 1 or 2 large sweet potatoes. 

Cut ½ in. to ¾ in. fries from the potato.

Drizzle with Olive Oil or Canola Oil

Sprinkle with Kosher Salt and Fresh Ground Black Pepper

Place on a baking sheet and cook for 15 minutes.

[i] Did you know that shredded cheese, even organic shredded cheese, is packaged with preservatives?  Yuck!  Be sure to use fresh cheese and shred it yourself (and ensure your fresh cheese is preservative free too!) as often as possible – which for me is ALWAYS!    

Meals From Scratch: Meals From Scratch Summer Challenge Meal Plan Week...

Meals From Scratch: Meals From Scratch Summer Challenge Meal Plan Week...: Week 1 Below is the first week’s meal plan.  

Meals From Scratch Summer Challenge Meal Plan Week 1 Preview

Week 1

Below is the first week’s meal plan.  Since this is the kids’ last week of school for us, I am letting them buy their lunch this week. So, if your kids are already out for the summer or you prefer to prep their lunches, you will have to make their lunches this week too.  

On a side note, as I mentioned in an earlier blog post, I made the switch to vegetarian, so I will post my vegetarian alternatives (which usually just includes a larger portion of vegetables and elimination of the meats).  Also, we believe there are some gluten sensitivities in our family as well.  So, I will note the gluten free options as we progress as well.  For example, cookies can easily be replaced with baby carrots, raisins and water for the Snack for the whole week (I do this for myself anyway), or you can follow a gluten free recipe.  Apple pie can be replaced with baked cinnamon apples, ice cream or sorbet, etc.  Last but not least, Marcus is lactose intolerant, so I replace his cheese with Veggies Shreds, if appropriate, or leave it out or replace it (for example, I give him a whole apple instead of the cheese).  So, as you can tell, everything here is flexible…and since my snacks change from week to week, you shouldn’t get too bored with things either, even if you are making substitutions.

Meals From Scratch Meal Planning - June 2012

One of the most gruelling tasks for me following a from scratch lifestyle has actually been the meal planning.  I mean, it takes considerable effort sometimes to plan the meals out in which we are going to eat. After that, I have to create my shopping list, and then I have to buy the groceries and find time to cook everything.  In my house, we eat 6 times a day which while good for you makes planning and shopping time consuming at times! 

Pinterest has become my friend as of late, because it has given me fresh new ideas for summer and reminded me of some old recipes that I know. 

I am clearing out my stock of some things that I have in my pantry and I have planned out my meals for June.  I challenge everyone to do the same and to start a from scratch lifestyle this summer.  I will post my meal plan, weekly shopping list, recipes, etc., and the bulk of the work will be done for you.  All you have to do is go to the grocery store to buy the groceries (something you have to do anyway) and make the meals (making everything from scratch might be a little more time consuming, but I am planning meals which mostly you can prepare and cook in one day and then freeze/refrigerate and reheat for the week).  If this seems like a lot of work, grab a neighbor or friend.  It makes the time go by faster and the extra hand in the kitchen is always a plus. 

I will be grabbing my neighbor and good friend Angie this summer.  We are going to try and bake our bread, make and prepare our snacks and meals for the week on Mondays - which I have also conveniently dubbed crockpot day! 

So, clean out your kitchen this week, and get ready for a from scratch summer with me!  I promise you will feel better if you do it!  I will post in the next couple of days the 1st weeks' meal plan, shopping list and recipes. 

5 Minute Homemade Salsa: Secret Ingredient - Hungarian Wax Pepper

The Hungarian Wax Pepper, is a wonderful pepper.  Although it looks a lot like a Banana Pepper, it is hardly the same.  The to easiest way to tell a Banana Pepper from a Hungarian Wax Pepper, other than tasting it, is the tip of the pepper.  The Hungarian Wax Pepper is rounded.  As far as flavor goes, it is considered a mild-hot pepper, not a sweet pepper like the Banana Pepper.  This guy, about 6 inches in length, is the secret ingredient to my homemade salsa (recipe below).  

Salsa:

3 cans petite diced tomatoes OR 4 cups diced Roma tomatoes
1 Hungarian Wax Pepper
3 jalapenos
1/2 Yellow Onion
6 leaves fresh Cilantro
3-4 cloves garlic
garlic salt, to taste

Dice the peppers, onion and cilantro.  Mince the garlic.  Add all the ingredients to the tomato, then add garlic salt to taste.  

The Magical Fruit - Beans

I can bake and cook a lot of things, but beans has never been one of them.  Thanks to my WONDERFUL neighbor, Angie, I now know how to prepare beans.  Her recipe, below, was a big hit...

2 bags of beans (or a couple cans)
1 onion, chopped
3-4 cloves garlic, minced
1 can tomato sauce (or make your own - I use Roma tomatoes to make my own)
1 bunch cilantro
Water

Brown the chopped onion and garlic.  Remove from heat and put in blender with Cilantro.  Blend until smooth.  Place blended mixture, tomato sauce and beans in crockpot and add just enough water to cover.  Cook on low heat for 8 - 9 hours.

I made this, froze what I thought I wasn't going to use this week and had to go get more out!  My boys ate them up after I informed them that beans make them fart.  They think farting is was the best thing ever, so they kept asking for more!  Gotta love boys - well, at least I do, because I have 4 of them now, sigh! ;) 

Things to take from this week - neighbors and friends are always a great source of information and if you inform your young male children their vegetables will make them fart, they will eat them!  LOL!!!

Our Local Co-op

Like most parents, I’m sure you too try to eat healthy and lead a healthy lifestyle and provide great healthy meals for your family, on a budget.  I've been talking to neighbors and friends lately about the co-op I belong to, because I love it so much.  As it turns out, few people know that we even have a local co-op, so I thought I'd dedicate a blog post to it (I know I've mentioned it in passing too, but it is more than worthy of an entire blog post).

The Neighborhood Garden doesn't have any sign-up fees (the "fee" is the donation of 2 reusable grocery bags), it's flexible - you don't have to order every week, it's inexpensive and there is always a great selection of ORGANIC produce!!  Oh, and if you can't make it to pick-up (I pick up at Durbin Creek Elementary on Monday at 5p), in some locations you can have it delivered for an extra $5 (I did this when I was working). 

This past Monday I received the following (a full-bag) for $33 (half bags are also available):

6oz Blueberries

2 Tangelos

3 Peaches

1 bunch Bananas (about 3 pounds)

2 Alexander Lucas Pears

Green Leaf Lettuce

5 Yukon Gold Potatoes

Green Peppers

Broccoli

1lb. Carrots

2 Roma Tomatoes

2 Yellow Onions

I also ordered the following:

3lb. bag Fuji Apples $5.50

Pineapple $4.50

We use the fruit for breakfast and snacks.  I am eating salads for lunch, and as you can see above, I have two vegetables for the week. 

This may be for you, and it may not, but I wanted to share.  Oh, and feel free to spread the word, because not only do I think it's a great deal (my grocery bill has decreased and I'm making healthier food choices, like salad) , but each week at least 3 families in need receive a free bag of fresh produce! 

If you're not one of my local friends, I strongly encourage seeing if you have a local co-op or even starting one of your own!  It's well worth it! 

Summer Veggies

It has been a little while since I last blogged.  As you all can tell from my "announcements" that I posted, I had a baby.  That left little time for blogging.  Mason is two months old now, so although we are still sleepless, we are falling into a little bit more of a normal routine.

Now that it's summer, there are so many WONDERFUL VEGGIES, which is great, because I've decided to go vegetarian.  As much as I love the taste of meat, I think I felt better not eating it.  I don't want to "torture" (that's what my husband calls it) the rest of my family by not including meat at dinner time, but I am determined to add more vegetables to everyone's diet - especially the kid's.

One of my favorite summer vegetables is yellow squash.  Thus far, I have breaded and fried them, but a healthier option is to make Squash Tots.  The best part about Squash Tots is they are kid approved.

This basically is a twist on my zucchini pancakes, and it compliments barbeque dishes very well.

Squash Tots

1 squash, grated
1 potato grated
1 egg
1/4 cup Parmesan cheese
1/4 cup bread crumbs
Salt and pepper to taste (I also add a little garlic and onion powder)

Preheat oven to 400F.  Grate the zucchini and potato then place in a dish towel to squeeze out the excess water.  In a bowl combine, the egg, onion, cheese, bread crumbs, zucchini, potato, salt and pepper. Grease a mini muffin pan.  Fill the muffin cups to the top. Bake for 15-18 minutes, or until the top is brown.
