Spinach Puree

Boiled and strained the baby spinch, put in cuisinart, Added a very small

quantity of coconut oil, old fashioned cider vinegar, lemon, sea salt and

fresh pepper, all of then to taste, and it is just delicious. (if you can

tolerate all those additives and yogurt.) It is also great with some yogurt

spooned on top.

amount of honey, and some

cinnamon and nutmeg and salt. Use a variety of apples for more flavor.

Priscuytto snack

Lay the Prosciutto on a long slice of cheese and add Dijon mustard and

capers. I roll that up secure with a dampened toothpick, squeeze on a bit of

honey, dredge the roll in almond flour and bake on parchment paper in a 350

oven until the cheese bubbles and the almond flour begins to brown. This

must be cooled for a few minutes to set and so as not to burn your tongue.

Cheese " Chips "

A baking sheet

Parchment paper (although it might work without)

Swiss cheese slices (here in Canada, we buy the Maple Leaf packages)

Salt

Preheat oven to 350

Cut cheese slices into threes so you have rectangles about 1 " x 3 " . Place

slices onto parchment lined baking tray. Heat until the cheese is bubbling

like crazy, wait a minute or so, and

then. Turn the oven off -- leaving the cheese in for a few more minutes.

Remove from oven, sprinkle with salt and let cool. You might have to

experiment a bit to find the right level of crunchiness. For an extra

special treat, make a dip by whipping Friendship brand Farmer cheese in the

blender with salt and pepper (you can even add some green onion or garlic to

the dip)!

Egg Whites

Freeze extra egg whites in ice cube trays, one egg white/cube until I am

ready to use them.

Recipes to make Chicken tender

Marinate it in oil, wine and herns overnight. I also make stewedchicken

balls from ground chicken and simmer them in tomato juice. Aside from egg

white omelets, I don't use eggg whites

much and sometimes have an allergic reaction.

Carol Frilegh <carolfrilegh@...>

MoistTender Chicken

Use oil and lemon juice like salad dressing. During the intro diet just the

poached meats and then added in cooked spinach and the pureed cauliflour

w/butter. To poach, you cover the meat/fish in cold water, bring the water

to just shy of boiling. You don't want the water to bubble, just sort of

remain right below a simmer. Chicken usually takes 20 min or more I think,

and should float when it's done. With the fish, we used the Joy of Cooking,

and they say to bring the water to the boiling point, and then turn it off,

and leave the fish in it for 10 minutes. We use a frying pan with fillets in

it filled with water for the fish, and a regular pot for the chicken.

Without anythign else on it, it's bland to be sure, but definitely not dry.

Make Meat Tender

Cut beef into large 1 inch chunks and make it in a stew in a cast iron pot

with a lid. Cook the stew in the oven rather than on the stove because that

seems to make it more tender, at about 350 degrees for about 2 hours.

Peach yogurt Sherbet

1 pound (4 or 5) ripe peaches, yields about 2 cups prepared fruit

1 small medium ripe banana

1 cup plain, low fat yogurt (I used my very rich fat filled yogurt instead)

2-3 Tblsp honey

2 tsp vanilla extract

Blanch the peaches in boiling water for 20 seconds. Refresh under cold water

and remove the skins. Remove the pits and slice. Peel and slice the banana.

Freeze the fruit in plastic bags. (I chopped the fruit up first before

freezing) When frozen solid, remove from the freezer and pound to break into

chunks. ( I found no need to pound, it simply broke into pieces in a few

minutes.) Place the yogurt, honey, and vanilla in a food processor. Add the

frozen fruit. Using the pulse action, process until the fruit is mashed.

Then turn on the processor and blend until you have a smooth puree. Serve as

is or return to the freezer. It will keep several weeks in the freezer.
