Peachy Sweet Potatoes - Ever so Easy

This is an easy recipe and can be thrown together almost 1-2-3.  It turned out to be delicious and I would suggest that when you need a side quickly and easily, you might want to select this one.  I added sugar to it but I don't think it is necessary .  That would make it a lot healthier.


Peachy Sweet Potatoes

Ingredients:

2 large sweet potatoes
1 can sliced peaches (16 ounces)  (includes juice) or 1 cup frozen peaches or 2 fresh peaches, sliced
1 tablespoon brown sugar
1 teaspoon pumpkin pie spice

Method:

Peel and chop sweet potatoes and place in medium saucepan of boiling water.  Boil till just soft about 20 minutes.

Place cooked sweet potatoes in a small baking dish (1 quart). Add peaches and if using canned,  add 1/2 cup of the juice.  If using frozen or fresh peaches, use 1/2 cup apple or orange juice.  Mix sugar, pumpkin pie spice and juice and sprinkle over the peaches and sweet potatoes.

Bake at 350 degrees F. for 20 minutes.

Thai Chicken San Choy Bau

It says, "thai" so I have to like the Thai Chicken San Choy Bau that we are making this week in our Donna Hay Wednesday group.  It was a bit spicy and the chopped chicken was a nice change of pace. Kayte selected this recipe from On the Shelf on page 124.   I tried it with the greens and it was very good and then I put it on spaghetti and it was spectacular.  My toddler granddaughter even liked it.  Must have been the hot sauce. I used romaine for the greens and I subbed in red pepper and added some Sirracha to spice it up to make up for the real chilis. Do check out the other cooks' dishes at our   Wednesday with Donna Hay site.

Brussels Sprouts - Power Food - Re-post

Another week, another vegetable for our Power Food group, a bunch of women who strive for healthy eating with the most delicious dishes. Each blog is inspiration . Each week, we choose a recipe based on the power food which comes from the book, Power Foods, 150 delicious recipes with the 38 healthiest ingredients from the editors of Whole Living magazine. Brussels sprouts like broccoli and cabbage are cruciferous. This group offers a unique composition of antioxidants that may provide several health benefits. Brussels sprouts are low in calories and offer protein, vitamins and minerals to help build a healthy human. My first issue with brussels sprouts is that it took me years to spell it correctly. Each time, it came up, in writing, and I admit, that was not too often, I would stare into space asking myself does brussel get an S, at the end or is it sprout that gets the S. For some reason, I could not remember that both end with that S. I am happy to tell you, I overcame thi

Each week, we choose a recipe based on the power food which comes from the book, Power Foods, 150 delicious recipes with the 38 healthiest ingredients from the editors of Whole Living magazine. That week, we concentrated on carrots. I like to check out our vegetable, not only for health benefits, but also for the names of their sisters. Carrots are related to parsnips, fennel, parsley, anise, caraway, cumin and dill. I didn't have a clue about many of these. I, have never seen carrots of other colors or at least, if I had, I didn't know, they were carrots. I am going to a good produce store, looking for purple or red carrots, to start my search. It is fun, shopping when purposely looking for new vegetables. I have definitely expanded my horizons. When, I was thinking about what to make with carrots, I
