Egg Salad

(aka: Egg and Olive)

My pregnant Body has been Screaming for Protein and so I’ve been eating Egg Salad Practically Everyday for Lunch! I grew up waiting and LOVING what we called Egg and Olive Sandwiches! As an Adult I’ve added a little twist to it and I no longer eat it on bread. I simply eat it out of a bowl just like potato salad! Here’s How I make it.

1 Dozen Hard Boiled eggs.

Approx ¼ mayo

1 TBSP Mustard

1 Can of Olives Chopped real fine.

Salt and pepper to taste.

Place your Chopped, peeled, hard-boiled eggs in a mixing bowl with the Mayo. Use a fork, potato masher or pastry knife to thoroughly blend the eggs and the mayo till the whites are nice and small and the yolks and mayo have creamed. Add the mustard salt and Pepper and Olives, mix well and SERVE! YUM!

Enjoy

Curry Turkey

The day after Thanks-Giving when we have lots of left over turkey, I LOVE to make Curry Turkey for sandwiches and lettuce boats! And Since I love curry so much I also started making it with canned chicken from Costco as well. This is a hard recipe to type because i never measure any of it; I do all the ingredients according to taste! So here’s my Basic Idea, you can taste it as you go and see what you like!

Ingredients

Turkey or chicken

Mayo

Curry

Honey

Diced apple

Raisins

Start with your meat and mayo then mix well. Next add the curry and honey and mix well again before adding the apples and raisins!

MEAT- I start with approx 1-1 ½ cups of diced turkey meat. Or 1 can of Chicken.

MAYO- I add the Mayo to my personal preference. Approx 1-2 Large scoops with the spoon. Use whatever amount you would use for Chicken salad or tuna salad.

CURRY- I start with approx 1TBSP of Curry. You could need less or you could need twice as much curry, it all depends on if you have mild or spicy curry and if your curry is fresh and high quality or if it’s an off brand or been sitting the cupboard for a while. Curry looses it’s potency relatively quick. So I like to buy the good stuff at whole foods cause it’s much stronger and seems to keep it’s flavor longer! But either way, don’t be a sissy, don’t be afraid to dump it on!!! Prepare yourself to feel like you’re adding too much, cause then you’re getting close to adding enough! lol I LOVE a nice strong curry taste! I’ve never had too much curry! lol

HONEY- Depending on how much meat you are using your and the potency of your curry you may need more or less Honey. I’d guess approx 1TBSP of Raw honey.

APPLE- I use approx ¼ of an average apple and a chop it nice and small. I want the apple chunks to be similar in size to the raisins.

RAISINS- I’d say, approx 1/8 cup. More or less to your taste!

ENJOY

Potato Wedges and FRY sauce

Potato Wedges

Sorry this is not an exact science. I tend to make things up as I go and I hardly ever measure, I just taste and tweak and taste and tweak! lol but here is my best description of what I have done. Luckily, It's my current favorite junk fod right now, so Ive made this 3 times in the past week!!good luck!

Preheat oven to 400degrees.

Slice potatoes to approx ½ inch slices or wedges depending on the size of your potatoes. Fingerlings make great wedges. (leave the skin on)

Prep Batter in a Large Ziplock bag.

Approx ½ cup arrowroot starch. (more or less depending on how many potatoes you’re using)

Approx ¼ tsp. Garlic powder

Approx ¼ tsp salt

Approx ½ tsp Organic No-salt seasoning

Couple dashes of pepper 

(remember, i just eyeball it, so you may want more of some of these spices)

Shake to combine batter. Add as many potatoes as you can to the bag with enough room to shake well to coat the potatoes. They should end up with a very thin, somewhat moist layer of batter on each. If they are very dry and heavily coated, add more potatoes and shake more to distribute batter evenly. Dump the battered potatoes onto a cookie sheet drizzle a little olive oil and gently hand toss to spread the oil. Then place all the potatoes flat on the sheet allowing a little space between each. (Too many too close together will cause them to steam instead of getting brown and crispy) Bake in the oven for 12 minutes on each side. And Serve. I like them best with Fry sauce!

Fry sauce

 I start with a 15oz mason jar with a lid.

I fill it half way with equal parts mayo (you could most likely use plain yogurt) and Ketchup. (I use organicville)

3-4 dashes of gf Worcestershire sauce. (I use Lea and Perkins)

Approx 1-2 TBSP lemon juice (according to taste)

approx 2 TBSP dill pickle Relish (more or less to taste)

dash of Pepper

Shake well to combine!
ENJOY 

TIP:When subbing out the mayo and using sour cream or plain yogurt in it's place You may not need as much Lemon Juice because Yogurt and sour cream tend to be tangy anyway!

Raw Cookie Dough Bites

I found a Super Delicious Recipe over at Perry'sPlate.com It was SUPER delicious, But I made a couple of changes so I thought I'd share it here in-case you wanna make it the way I did!!! ENJOY!

((Grain, Sugar, Dairy, & Egg-Free))

Yield: about 15 bites

Prep Time: 15 minutes

Total Time: 15 minutes

Ingredients:

2 cups blanched almond flour
1/2 teaspoon baking soda
1/4 teaspoon sea salt
1/4 cup coconut oil melted
2 Tablespoons honey
2 Tablespoon peanut butter
2 teaspoon GF pure vanilla extract
2 handfuls mini carob chips (if you have too many it will prevent you from forming balls)

Directions:

Whisk together the flour, baking soda, and salt in a medium bowl. Whisk the oil, honey, peanut butter, and vanilla in a separate, smaller bowl. Pour wet mixture into the dry mixture and combine well. Your own two hands to the best job of getting it all combined. If you find the mixture is too dry and crumbly, add a tablespoon of water at a time until you reach cookie dough consistency.

Mix in the desired amount of carob chips and roll into 1 to 1 1/2 inch balls.

Store in the refrigerator. They should keep for several days, although they tend to dry out the longer they are stored. (If they last that long...)

Nat's Notes:
1. The more you work the dough, the more the coconut oil will melt, resulting in the balls getting greasy. Return the dough to the freezer to re-harden if this bothers you.
2. This recipe doubles well.

3. You can even make these in a food processor. Just process the dry ingredients and add the wet ones once you've mixed them together. For those who don't like to get their hands messy...

~Pie Crust~

This is a Super Easy Pie Crust Recipe from the Pillsbury Bake off that I converted.

INGREDIENTS

• 2 cups Whole Wheat Pastry Flour
• 1/2 cup Succant.
• 1 tsp. salt
• 2/3 cup Earth Balance Buttery Spread. or Shortening.
• 5-6 tablespoons ice cold water

Whisk or sift together flour and salt until well mixed. Rub shortening into flour with fingertips or cut in using two knives or a pastry blender until mixture has lumps the size of small peas.

Fill a small glass with ice and water. Using a tablespoon measure, spoon out 1 tablespoon of ice water at a time, stirring quickly into the flour mixture, using only enough water (5 or 6 tablespoons) for the pastry to come together (mixture will be crumbly).

Divide into two portions, with the larger half being for the bottom of the pie crust. Shape each portion into a 1/2" thick disk shape. Smooth the edges. Wrap in plastic wrap and rest for 20 minutes.

Roll out on a lightly floured work surface to a size 1 1/2 inches larger than the pie pan. Fit into pan loosely.

Bake according to directions given in the pie recipe being used.

Indian Spiced Curry

I recently found this Curry Recipe!! It LOOKS Fabulous!! I can't wait to try it!! I'll be using Chicken not Tofu. And I'll try to remember to post pix for you after I try it out!!

Ingredients
Serves 4
1 tsp curry power
1 tsp garam masala
4 tbsp vegetable oil, divided
1 block extra firm tofu or 1 lb chicken breasts, cut into 1/2-in cubes
1 medium onion, cut into large chunks
3 cloves garlic
2 tbsp chopped fresh ginger
1 medium onion, finely diced
1 tbsp ground coriander
1 tbsp ground cumin
1/2 tsp turmeric
1/4 tsp cayenne pepper
1 cup coconut milk
1 cup water
1 (14-oz) can diced tomatoes, including juice
2 tsp salt
Juice of 1 lemon
1/4 cup chopped cilantro
4 cups cooked basmati rice, for serving

Directions
In a medium bowl combine curry powder, garam masala and 2 tablespoons vegetable oil. Add tofu or chicken and toss to coat all pieces. Set aside and allow flavors to develop for 15-20 minutes.

Place a large nonstick pan over medium heat and gently brown curry-oiled tofu or chicken on all sides. Cook in two batches, if necessary. Remove tofu or chicken from pan and set aside.

Place onion chunks, garlic and ginger in the bowl of a mini processor or blender and blend until smooth. Add up to 1/3 cup water if needed to make a smooth paste.

Heat remaining 2 tbsp of vegetable oil in a large nonstick pan over medium heat, add diced onions and cook until golden brown.

~Apple Pear Crisp~

Dairy Free-Sugar Free-Comfort filled Deliciousness

~INGREDIENTS~

1 cooking Spray
8 Apples Approx
4-6 Pears Approx
2 tsp. Lemon Juice
1/4 Cup. Succanat

Topping
1Large Egg
3/4 Cup. Succanat
1/4 tsp. Salt
1 TBSP. Cinnamon
1/4 tsp. Cloves
1 1/2 Cup. Old Fashioned Oats
6 TBSP. Earth Balance Buttery Spread.

Instructions~

Preheat oven to 375ºF. Coat a 9- X 13-inch glass baking dish with cooking spray.

Slice Apples and Pears into approx 1 inch thick slices. Place apple and pear slices in a Large bowl. Toss with lemon juice and Succanat; set aside.

Make topping, in another medium bowl, beat the egg. Add succant, buttery spread, salt and spices; mix to combine. Add oats; mix well.

Pour fruit into prepared baking dish and evenly sprinkle oat mixture on top. Bake until fruit starts to bubble and topping starts to brown, about 45 to 50 minutes. Allow crisp to cool a little before serving!

Notes*
The Apples and Pears Will Cook Down so make sure you fill the pan Full of the fruit.

The longer the crisp is cooled, the more the fruit juices will be absorbed. If the crisp is cut after two hours, the fruit will be a compote-consistency. Let it sit longer and it will become quite firm.

Peeling the fruit is optional.

Add 1/2 teaspoon of ground nutmeg and 1/4 teaspoon of ground ginger for a more robust spice flavor.

Try this recipe with other types of fruit: three pounds of pitted, quartered Italian plums also make a lovely crisp.

~Verry Berry Pie~

All berries are equal in this recipe, adapted from The Bunnery Bakery & Restaurant in Jackson Hole, Wyoming.

Ingredients:

• 8 cups (2 pounds) mixed frozen berries(I used a 3 berry blend blueberries, raspberries, and Marion berries)
  
• 1/2 cup Succanat ** this amount wasn't sweet enough for me on it's own, but perfect with Iceream on top**2025 update, even 1 cup coconut sugar is not enough to really enjoy it plain without ice cream.
  
• 1/4 cup cornstarch ** Arrowrot starch
• 1 tablespoon fresh lemon juice
• 1 large egg yolk

Directions:

1. Preheat the oven to 350°. In a large bowl, toss together the frozen berries, sugar, cornstarch and lemon juice.

2. Unroll a pie crust into a 10-inch pie plate. Using your thumbs, gently press the pastry up the sides of the dish so it is even with the top rim.

3. Pour the fruit mixture into the crust, sprinkle with succanat and dot with the butter. Moisten the rim of the pastry with water. Unroll the second pie crust, set it on top of the berry mixture and pinch the crusts together with your fingers to seal. Cut 3 small slits in the center of the crust.

Take the egg yolk and brush onto the pie, and sprinkle with more succant. Set the pie on a baking sheet and bake for 30 minutes..............



........increase the heat to 375° and bake until the crust is nicely browned, about 20 minutes longer.
