Recipe: Bread Pudding -- back to top

Originally from: http://find.myrecipes.com/recipes/recipefinder.dyn?action=displayRecipe&recipe_id=226018&package_id=384652

Changes

Important Notes

It needed more sweetener. Next time we can add some Splenda to the egg mix. Also, you could use whole wheat bread.

We served with Froyo

Original Recipe

Try this recipe the next time you have a leftover French loaf; the texture of bread pudding is better with day-old bread. You can also use fat-free fudge topping in place of the caramel topping.

Yield: 2 servings

Ingredients

Preparation

Combine the first 4 ingredients in a small bowl, and stir with a whisk. Place 1/2 cup bread cubes into each of 2 (8-ounce) ramekins coated with cooking spray. Spoon 2 tablespoons milk mixture over each serving, and top with 1/4 cup banana. Sprinkle each serving with 1 1/2 teaspoons granulated sugar. Repeat procedure with remaining bread and milk mixture. Chill 30 minutes.

Preheat oven to 350.

Bake at 350 for 50 minutes or until done. Spoon 1 tablespoon caramel sauce over each serving. Sprinkle with powdered sugar, if desired.

Chicken Saltimbocca -- back to top

Chicken Saltimbocca (From Gina's Skinny Taste) -- Original Post

3 (8 oz) chicken cutlet halves (24 oz total) , fat removed

3 (1.5 oz) slices paper thin prosciutto, cut in half

6 sage leaves

1/4 cup flour

olive oil spray

1 tbsp butter

salt and fresh pepper

3/4 cup fat free chicken broth

1/4 cup white wine

Cut each breast into two cutlets to make a total of 6. Pound each one to about 1/4?.

Season chicken with pepper. Lay a sage leaf on top, then a 1/2 slice of prosciutto, fold over and lightly pound ends of chicken to seal.

Place flour in a shallow bowl and lightly dredge chicken in flour, shaking off excess.

Heat a nonstick frying pan. When hot, spray olive oil. Sauté chicken 1 minute on each side. You may have to do this in a few batches.

Remove chicken from pan and deglaze the pan with wine, scraping up any brown bits. Add chicken broth, butter and return chicken to the sauce. Finish cooking on low, 5 minutes. Serve this over a bed of wilted greens and top with sauce.

Coffee Fluff [The Kitchn] -- back to top

Coffee Fluff (From The Kitchn) -- Original Post

about four cups, 8 small servings

Brew the coffee with the water using a French press. (You can substitute espresso or Chemex-brewed coffee if you prefer.) Put in a small bowl or a glass measuring cup. Stir in the sugar and pinch of salt and sprinkle the gelatin over top. Let it soften for a few minutes then whisk vigorously until gelatin is thoroughly dissolved. Refrigerate until it is set - about two hours.

Add the liquor, vanilla and a pinch of the salt to the cream. Whip the cream until it forms soft peaks. Remove the cream to a separate bowl, and whip the coffee gelatin, quite firm by this point, until it is frothy and creamy. It will look like a thick dark mocha espresso drink, or creamy cafe au lait, but still with tiny flecks of brown coffee jelly. Stir this frothed coffee jelly and the cream together. Spoon into a mold or individual cups and refrigerate again until set - at least an hour. It will still be quite soft and creamy, like a refrigerator version of ice cream.

Serve, as Colwin suggests, with a few chocolate shavings on top.



Fiber One Onion Rings -- back to top

Fiber One Onion Rings (from Hungry Girl) -- Original Post

PER SERVING (entire recipe): 155 calories, 1g fat, 515mg sodium, 41g carbs, 16g fiber, 7g sugars, 9g protein -- Points plus value 4*

Originally, we were pretty laid back about the amount of spices in this recipe. These days, we're not taking any chances. No one likes under-seasoned onion rings...

Ingredients:

1 large onion

1/2 cup Fiber One bran cereal (original)

1/2 cup fat-free liquid egg substitute (like Egg Beaters Original)

1/4 tsp. garlic powder, or more to taste

1/8 tsp. onion powder, or more to taste

1/8 tsp. salt, or more to taste

Black pepper, to taste

Directions:

Preheat oven to 375 degrees.

Slice the ends off the onion and remove its outer layer. Cut onion into 1/2-inch-wide slices, and separate into rings. Set aside.

Using a blender or food processor, grind Fiber One to a bread crumb-like consistency. Season the crumbs with spices and transfer to a plate.

Fill a small bowl with egg substitute. Prepare a baking sheet (or two, if you have a lot of rings) by spraying with nonstick spray. Set aside.

Pop-Up Tip! For this next step, try using tongs or a fork to dip the rings into the egg substitute and cereal crumbs -- it'll keep your fingers from getting eggy & crumb-covered. (Don't pierce the rings with the fork; just balance them on it.)

One at a time, dunk each ring in egg substitute, give it a shake to remove any excess, and then coat it in the seasoned crumbs. Evenly place rings on the baking sheet(s).

Bake in the oven for 20 - 25 minutes, carefully flipping rings over about halfway through. Enjoy!

MAKES 1 SERVING

HG FYI! You'll only need about 1/4 cup egg substitute to coat your rings, but using 1/2 cup makes it soooo much easier.

Sea Scallops alla Caprese (from Serious Eats) -- Original Post

Ingredients

Procedures

Preheat a gas or charcoal grill with a piazza or large cast iron griddle inside, or heat the griddle on a stovetop (see note). Place the red onion slices on the hot surface without oil and season the top with salt. Cook until soft and charred, 5-7 minutes. Flip, season second side, and cook until second side is charred.

Meanwhile, place tomatoes in a large mixing bowl and tear the basil leaves over them. Once the onions have cooked and cooled slightly, separate into rings and scatter over the tomatoes. Drizzle with 4 tablespoons olive oil and season to taste with salt and pepper. Lay tomato mixture on a platter.

Carefully carve a checkerboard pattern into one side of each scallop (about 1/4-inch deep) and toss them with salt, pepper, and remaining 2 tablespoons olive oil. Preheat cooking surface until very hot, then cook the scallops, design-side-down, until golden and almost cooked through, 5-7 minutes. Flip and cook for just 30 seconds on the second side, then remove from the heat. Arrange on tomato salad, squeeze the lemon halves over everything, and top with flaky sea salt. Serve immediately.

Whole Wheat Pasta Recipe -- back to top

From: <http://allrecipes.com/Recipe/Whole-Wheat-Pasta/Detail.aspx>

Makes a huge amount. I added a good amount of water and a tiny bit more oil. Pretty good. Also, I used only white whole wheat four instead of half and half. Made it on August 2, 2010

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Ingredients

Directions

  1. Stir together the all-purpose flour, whole wheat flour and salt in a medium bowl, or on a clean board. Make a hollow in the center, and pour in the olive oil. Break eggs into it one at a time, while mixing quickly with a fork until the dough is wet enough to come together. Knead on a lightly floured surface until the dough is stiff and elastic. Cover, and let stand for 30 minutes to relax.

  2. Roll out dough by hand with a rolling pin, or use a pasta machine to achieve the desired thickness of noodles. Cut into desired width and shapes. Allow the pasta to air dry for at least 15 minutes to avoid having it clump together.

Whole Wheat Pizza Crust -- back to top

2017-01-23 Note:

This was moved to the copied recipe page, but contains original post information as well.


Originally from here

I tried it once with all whole wheat flour and I thought it was a bit chewy and not as good. Also, since there is so much fiber, it doesn't change the points very much. This makes 6 large or 12 small pizza's. Large is still single person sized. See 2010-08-24 for points with all whole wheat. Also, I did the yeast with Dad's method and added it.

I started it in the food processor, moved to the dough hook and finally finished kneading by hand (more fun).

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Ingredients

Directions

  1. In a large bowl, dissolve sugar in warm water. Sprinkle yeast over the top, and let stand for about 10 minutes, until foamy.

  2. Stir the olive oil and salt into the yeast mixture, then mix in the whole wheat flour and 1 cup of the all-purpose flour until dough starts to come together. Tip dough out onto a surface floured with the remaining all-purpose flour, and knead until all of the flour has been absorbed, and the ball of dough becomes smooth, about 10 minutes. Place dough in an oiled bowl, and turn to coat the surface. Cover loosely with a towel, and let stand in a warm place until doubled in size, about 1 hour.

  3. When the dough is doubled, tip the dough out onto a lightly floured surface, and divide into 2 pieces for 2 thin crust, or leave whole to make one thick crust. Form into a tight ball. Let rise for about 45 minutes, until doubled.

  4. Preheat the oven to 425 degrees F (220 degrees C). Roll a ball of dough with a rolling pin until it will not stretch any further. Then, drape it over both of your fists, and gently pull the edges outward, while rotating the crust. When the circle has reached the desired size, place on a well oiled pizza pan. Top pizza with your favorite toppings, such as sauce, cheese, meats, or vegetables.

  5. Bake for 16 to 20 minutes (depending on thickness) in the preheated oven, until the crust is crisp and golden at the edges, and cheese is melted on the top.
