Faux Sausage and Rice Cakes - Miriam


I have decided to select one of my cook books or one of my cooking magazines, each week, and make some of the recipes found in the weekly choice.  I decided to start with one of our fellow bloggers, Miriam from Meatless Meals for Meat Eaters.  I have more papers sticking out of this book then one would imagine.  Each time, I open to book, I find another recipe, I have to mark.

 I cooked from Miriam's blog first so when her book was published, I did not hesitate to order it.  I knew, I would love it and cook from it, the latter being more important.  I will share one here and post the other two, I just made, on My Sweet and Savory, in the next few days.

Miriam has divided the book into sections, my favorite being Dairy and Egg Dishes.  Despite this, the three recipes, I plan to share, do not come from that section.  Tonight's dish comes from , Beans, Legumes and Grains.  The book is laid out well with a recipe to a page which makes it easy to work from.  I like how Miriam makes suggestions to get a better result, through the recipes.  It personalizes the book and it is useful.  I have found the direction to be clear and have found it easy to follow directions.  So far, all the results are successes.  I am looking forward to more of these.

I have not asked Miriam permission to print the recipe so I am only listing the ingredients.

    I've only made faux sausage once, but it was a pretty big hit.

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
