Thanks to those who told me that just part of this post went through.

Apparently there was some hidden code in a recipe that meant that nothing

went through afterwards. I did some retyping so this should work. Sorry

to be such a pest today.

4 cups torn spinach

This is a dish designed for leftovers and improvisation based on the odds

and ends in your refrigerator. You can substitute other crunchy vegetables

such as parsnips and fennel for the carrot and bell pepper.

 

1. Heat oil in a large nonstick skillet over medium-high heat. Add onion

and basil; sauté two minutes. Add bell pepper and carrot; saute 4

minutes. Add spinach, mushrooms, salt, and garlic; saute 3 minutes or

until spinach is wilted. Stir in soy sauce and black pepper. Remove from

heat; serve over rice. Yield: 4 servings (serving size: 3/4 cup

Main Dishes, Vegetarian Pasta, Couscous, Etc.

 

Amount Measure Ingredient -- Preparation Method

-------- ------------ --------------------------------

2 slices white bread -- (1 ounce slices)

2 cups 2% reduced-fat milk -- divided

1/2 cup thinly sliced onion

1 teaspoon black peppercorns

4 parsley sprigs

2 thyme sprigs

1 bay leaf

1 garlic clove -- minced

4 teaspoons all-purpose flour

1/2 teaspoon prepared mustard

1/4 teaspoon salt

1/8 teaspoon ground red pepper

4 cups hot cooked elbow macaroni -- (about 8 ounces

1 1/2 cups shredded reduced-fat sharp cheddar -- (6 ounces)

1/3 cup shredded smoked Gouda or Gouda cheese -- (1 1/2

ounces)

Cooking spray

 

To gain an extra measure of flavor, I like to steep the milk with onion

and herbs before making the sauce. Smoked Gouda works great for the second

cheese.

 

1. Place bread in a food processor; pulse 10 times or until coarse crumbs

form to measure 2/3 cup. Set aside.

 

2. Combine 1 1/2 cups milk and next 6 ingredients (1 1/2 cups milk through

garlic) in a saucepan, and bring to a boil over medium heat. Remove from

heat; cover and let stand 30 minutes. Strain milk mixture through a sieve

into a large bowl; discard solids.

 

3. Preheat oven to 350F.

 

4. Place flour in a small bowl; gradually add 1/2 cup milk, stirring with

a whisk until blended. Add flour mixture, mustard, salt, and red pepper to

milk mixture, stirring well with a whisk. Stir in macaroni and cheeses;

spoon into an 8-inch square baking dish coated with cooking spray. Top

with breadcrumbs. Bake at 350F for 25 minutes or until lightly browned.

Yield: 5 servings (serving size: 1 1/2 cups).

Pasta With Asparagus And Mushrooms

 

Recipe By : Cooking Light Magazine, October 1999, page 180

Serving Size : 4 Preparation Time :0:00

Categories : Inspired Vegetarian--Madison Main Dishes, Vegetarian

Pasta, Couscous, Etc. Vegetables

 

Amount Measure Ingredient -- Preparation Method

-------- ------------ --------------------------------

1/4 cup chopped fresh parsley

2 teaspoons chopped fresh basil

2 garlic cloves -- minced

4 teaspoons butter or stick margarine

1/3 cup diced shallots

6 cups sliced cremini mushrooms

1/2 teaspoon salt

1/2 cup dry white wine

8 ounces uncooked pappardelle -- (wide ribbon pasta)

or fettuccine

2 cups sliced asparagus -- (about 1 pound)

(2-inch)

1/2 cup grated fresh Parmesan cheese -- divided (2 ounces)

1/4 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper

 

Commercial asparagus fields thrived in Bayville in its early days, bound

for the markets of the East Coast. So I thought it would be nice to have a

delicious homage to this vegetable. For a tasty touch, drizzle a few drops

of truffle oil over the dish.

 

1. Combine the first 3 ingredients, and set aside.

 

2. Melt butter in a large nonstick skillet over medium-high heat. Add

shallots; saute‚ 1 minute. Add mushrooms and salt; saute‚ 5 minutes. Stir

in wine; cook 1 minute. Reduce heat to low. Add 2 tablespoons parsley

mixture; saute‚ 2 minutes. Keep warm.

 

3. Bring water to a boil in a large Dutch oven. Add pasta; cook 6 1/2

minutes. Add asparagus; cook 1 1/2 minutes or until asparagus is

crisp-tender. Drain pasta mixture in a colander over a bowl, reserving 1/2

cup cooking liquid. Combine reserved cooking liquid, pasta mixture,

mushroom mixture, and 1/4 cup cheese. Arrange 2 cups pasta mixture on each

of 4 plates. Sprinkle evenly with remaining parsley mixture, 1/4 cup

cheese, and 1/4 teaspoon pepper. Yield: 4 servings.

Sauteed Carrots with Seaweed, Ginger, and Tofu

 

Recipe By : Cooking Light Magazine, October 1999, page 182

Serving Size : 4 Preparation Time :0:00

Categories : Inspired Vegetarian--Madison Main Dishes, Vegetarian

Soyfoods Vegetables

 

Amount Measure Ingredient -- Preparation Method

-------- ------------ --------------------------------

1 cup dried arame or other shredded seaweed -- (about 1

ounce)

1 pound firm or extra-firm tofu -- drained

and cut into 1/2-inch slices

1 tablespoon dark sesame oil -- divided

1 1/2 cups julienne-cut carrot -- (about 1 pound)

1/3 cup thinly sliced green onions

1 tablespoon minced peeled fresh ginger

1/4 teaspoon salt

2 tablespoons low-sodium soy sauce

4 cups hot cooked long-grain brown rice

1 tablespoon sesame seeds -- toasted

 

I first made this dish in 1970 and still cook it with pleasure today. The

deep-black color and unique flavor of arame seaweed makes it an attractive

accent for carrots and spicy fresh ginger. Adding the tofu and serving it

with brown rice makes a complete meal. You can substitute other varieties

of shredded seaweed for the arame; each will have its own distinct taste.

 

1. Cover arame with water; let stand 15 minutes. Drain.

 

2. Brush tofu slices with 1 teaspoon oil. Heat a large nonstick skillet

over medium-high heat. Add tofu, and cook until liquid from tofu is

evaporated (about 3 minutes). Remove tofu from pan. Cool and cut into

1/4-inch pieces, and set aside.

 

3. Heat 2 teaspoons oil in pan over medium-high heat. Add carrot, onions,

and ginger; cook 4 minutes or until carrot is golden brown, stirring

frequently. Stir in arame and salt; cook 3 minutes or until arame is

tender. Stir in tofu and soy sauce. Cook for 5 minutes or until

thoroughly heated. Serve with rice. Sprinkle with sesame seeds. Yield: 4

servings (serving size: 1 cup tofu mixture and 1 cup rice).

 

Note: Seaweed is sold at health-food stores and Asian supermarkets.

Amount Measure Ingredient -- Preparation Method

-------- ------------ --------------------------------

4 cups sliced carrot -- (1/2-inch thick)

1 teaspoon grated lemon rind

1 tablespoon fresh lemon juice

1 teaspoon paprika

1 teaspoon extra-virgin olive oil

1/2 teaspoon ground cumin

1/4 teaspoon salt

1 large garlic clove -- minced

1/4 cup crumbled feta cheese -- (1 ounce)

2 tablespoons chopped pitted kalamata olives -- (about 6)

2 tablespoons coarsely chopped fresh flat-leaf parsley

4 cups torn spinach

 

Grated carrot salads have been around a long time, but this one is made

with cooked sliced carrots, warm spices, and accents of feta cheese and

olives. It makes a wonderful change of pace.

 

1. Cook carrot in boiling water 4 minutes or until crisp-tender; drain and

rinse with cold water.

 

2. Combine rind and next 8 ingredients (rind through garlic) in a large

bowl. Add carrot, feta, olives and parsley; stir well to coat. Place

spinach on each of 4 plates; top with carrot salad. Yield: 4 servings

(serving size: 1 cup carrot salad and 1 cup spinach).

Serving Size : 6 Preparation Time :0:00

Inspired Vegetarian--Madison Soups And Stews

Vegetables

 

Amount Measure Ingredient -- Preparation Method

-------- ------------ --------------------------------

1 1/2 cups dried navy beans -- (about 3/4 pound)

1 1/4 cups uncooked wheat berries

1 teaspoon salt -- divided

1 tablespoon olive oil

2 cups diced onion

1 cup diced celery

1/2 cup diced carrot

1 tablespoon chopped fresh

OR 1 teaspoon dried rosemary

3 garlic cloves -- crushed

8 cups water

4 parsley sprigs

2 thyme sprigs

1 bay leaf

1/4 teaspoon black pepper

14 1/2 ounces canned diced tomatoes -- undrained

***GARNISH***

1/2 cup chopped fresh parsley

1/3 cup grated fresh Parmesan cheese -- (1 1/2 ounces)

1 tablespoon chopped fresh

OR 1 teaspoon dried rosemary

1/4 teaspoon black pepper

1 garlic clove -- chopped

 

This sounds like the ultimate health-food dish from the 70s, but today

this hearty main-dish soup graces the tables of fine Italian restaurants.

Start this soup early in the day, or the night before, as the beans and

wheat berries (unprocessed kernels of wheat) require long soaking and

cooking times.

 

1. Sort and wash beans; place in a large bowl. Cover with water to 2

inches above beans; cover and let stand 8 hours or overnight. Drain.

 

2. Place wheat berries in a medium bowl; cover with water to 2 inches

above wheat berries. Cover and let stand 8 hours or overnight. Drain.

Place wheat berries in a large saucepan. Cover with water to 2 inches

above wheat berries. Bring to a boil; reduce heat, and simmer 25 minutes.

Stir in 1/2 teaspoon salt; cook 20 minutes or until tender. Drain.

 

3. While wheat berries are cooking, heat oil in a Dutch oven over medium

heat. Add the onion, celery, carrot, 1 tablespoon fresh rosemary, and 3

crushed garlic cloves, and cook 12 minutes, stirring occasionally. Stir in

beans, 8 cups water, parsley sprigs, thyme sprigs, and bay leaf. Partially

cover, and cook 1 1/2 hours or until beans are tender. Discard bay leaf

parsley, and thyme. Stir in wheat berries, 1/2 teaspoon salt, 1/4 teaspoon

pepper, and tomatoes; cook 5 minutes or until thoroughly heated.

 

4. To prepare garnish, combine chopped parsley, cheese, 1 tablespoon

fresh rosemary, 1/4 teaspoon pepper, and chopped garlic. Ladle soup into

bowls; sprinkle each serving with about 2 tablespoons garnish. Yield: 6

servings (serving size: 1 1/2 cups). Additional Note: Wheat berries can be

found in most health-food stores and many larger supermarkets.
