Savory Cheese Cup - QED

It was time to fulfill a yearning for something savory and something dairy.  In my head, I went through all kinds of combinations. As a cream cheese lover, this was to be my path.  Cream cheese is versatile.  We use it for sweet as in cheesecake and we  use it in savory, such as with potatoes, mushrooms or onions.  Put it on a bagel with smoked salmon. 


Off to combine some ingredients and see what happens.  I am making this for one person and that is me.

Savory Cheese Cup

Ingredients:


1 tablespoon Baco Bits
4 ounces whipped cream cheese
2 eggs
1/4 cup milk
salt and pepper to taste
1 tablespoon chives
(If you want to get your veggies in, chop up some bell pepper or tomatoes and mix in.)

Method:

Preheat oven 400 degrees F.

Beat the eggs with the cream cheese in a medium bowl.  Beat for about two minutes until the two blend into a smooth "batter".

Add eggs and milk and continue to mix until smooth.

Season with salt and pepper.

If you are adding a vegetable, now is the time to mix it in.

Place in small baking dish.

Place in oven and bake for 10 minutes or until top is golden brown and mixture is set.

This makes a great breakfast or lunch.  Serve it with a romaine lettuce salad.  It is easy to make and takes little time.

Thai Chicken San Choy Bau

Image
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

Image
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 ...
