This healthy recipe is out of the Magic Foods cookbook that I've mentioned before. Each time I've changed a thing or two, but tonight it was spectacular. Enjoy!
Serves 2 (pretty large salads)
Salad:
1 head romain
2-4 green onions
snap peas
1 orange (for orange and grapefruit, cut peal off and slice)
1 grapefruit
sliced, cooked, chicken breast
sliced almonds, or pistacios
feta
Dressing:
1/3 orange juice (fresh is best)
2 TBSP lemon juice
3 TBSP extra-virgin olive oil
1 TBSP dijon mustard
2-4 garlic cloves, pressed
1/2 tsp salt
pepper
I've baked the chicken in a batch of the dressing before and it was really tasty. Just make sure you make an extra batch to put on your salad. :-)
Hearty Meat and Veggie Pasta Sauce
This recipe is an original that is a new favorite.
1 lb. ground beef, brown and add following ingredients . . .
1 c. finely chopped onion
1 c. shredded zuchinni
1 c. shredded carrots
When above veggies are soft, add . . .
1 c. red wine (optional)
1 can diced tomatoes, or 3-4 diced fresh tomatoes
1 small can tomato paste
Add water for desired consistency (I put in about a cup)
salt and pepper to taste, and tsp sugar
This is great on any pasta. We love it on angel hair or regular spaghetti, and I recently had it on brown rice pasta.
