Rachel Ray Week


Menu Plan Monday

This week starts a new and exciting group featuring the recipes of Ellie Krieger.  I belonged, in the past, to a group that cooked Ellie recipes and hubby could not wait for  his weekly Ellie treat.  He really loves her recipes.  They tend to be healthy, easy to make, and really yummy.  We are using Weeknight Wonders plus recipes we find on the Internet for our choices.  The group is open so if you are interested, please let me know.

 The star of this week is Rachel Ray.   I started with her book and ended up looking for specific recipes online.  I finished up with a nice selection, some which I can't wait to make.

 Sunday - Salmon and Leek Chowder - Rachel Ray

Monday - Potato Cake with Green Beans and Apples - Rachel Ray

 Tuesday -  Eggplant with Tomato, Basil and Parmesan Risotto - Donna Hay

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 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

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
