Quintuple Chocolate Brownies - Baking With Dorie -- BWD

Quintuple Chocolate Brownies, Page 99       
Baking With Dorie
Selected by Shahieda

Can you imagine five types of chocolate in one little brownie?  Neither can I.   I failed the test and did not use all five.  Knowing how rich it was, I omitted the icing.  Dorie, on the other hand used all five and I can only imagine how fabulous, they have to be.

I used better chocolate than I usually do so I can't tell if these brownies are truly superior because of the recipe or because of the recipe and my chocolate.  I don't care why right now.   I only know these were filled with the richness of chocolate.  I had requests from everyone who tasted these, for the recipe.  I told each and every one of them, they should buy the book.  It is that good.  I am planning to send one to my daughter-in-law, if she does not have it.  I gave one to my older daughter who loves it.  Baking from my Home to Yours by Dorie Greenspan simply rocks.  Every home should have one.  In the meanwhile Shahieda has the recipe on her blog, Decadent Delectables.

If I was a teenager, I would have a photo of Dorie, on my bedroom wall.  A far cry better than sports heroes and movie stars. 

In the meanwhile, if you like luscious brownies, get in the kitchen and rattle those pots and pats. 

I bet some of you Dorie fans or Dorie fans to be would like to bake with us.  Just stop by Grapefruit's and let her know and then, you too can enjoy the very best of baked goods.   To see what others have baked, check out BWD.

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

Carrot Cake _ Power Food - repost

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. 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
