Side Dish Recipes(50 Recipes Found - Phase 1 in Green)Avocado Cheese Dip Life is busy; but I've been making some yummy legal dishes for holiday parties and wanted to share. Here are a couple of dips that are delicious with veggies, whole grain crisp breads or whole wheat pita bread.
BLT South Beach Style
Brown Rice (Another Way of Cooking...) Here's another way of cooking it. I'd never had much success before, but the 3/1 ratio of liquid to rice made all the difference, I think. I have yet to try MJ's method, altho it's on my list.
Brown Rice (Yet Another Way to Cook...) I bought a pressure cooker a few years ago to make risotto this way without having to stir and tend. Turns out brown rice cooks so much faster this way, and without burning or tending, it is definitely worth the pressure cooker (assuming you have rice at least once a week).
Bruschetta
Brussels Sprouts with Mustard Cream You can serve this as a side dish or make it a main course by doing the following:
While Brussels sprouts are boiling, take 3-4 pork tenderloins, cubed.
Toss with some chili powder or cajun seasoning and saute in olive oil until done.
Double the amounts for the cream sauce and make as directed above.
Add the Brussels sprouts and pork to sauce and heat through.
Serves 4
Cauliflower With Ginger and Cilantro I am posting the recipe as I found it in an Indian cookbook.
If you can't find garam masala in a store, I have given a recipe for two versions. I prefer #2, but it makes a lot more, so if you're not sure you'll use much, try #1.
Cranberry Sauce I made a SBD legal cranberry sauce which is great. I like it even better than the canned and it is very easy. Hope you try it, it is great.
Creamy Green Beans This recipe couldn't be any easier, but we have had it on both Thanksgiving and Christmas and it was a huge hit. I haven't gotten the beans drained well enough yet, though, according to my hubby, because the Velveeta ends up a little watered down. My next step will be to actually empty the green beans from the colander (after rinsing and draining) onto paper towels to get even more moisture out. Even 'watery', though, this is yummy!
Creamy Spinach Dip
Easy Oven Baked Brown Rice I found this in a back issue of Cook's magazine. How timely! To minimize any loss of water through evaporation, cover saucepan and use the water AS SOON as it comes to a boil. To double the recipe, use a 13 x 9 inch baking dish; the baking time need not be increased.
Egg Salad Sandwiches Comments: OR: Top with bean sprouts, avocado and low fat Swiss cheese
OR: Omit the pimento and mustard. Add 1/2 cup feta cheese & 2 T sliced pitted ripe olives
Garam Masala
Garlic Mashed 'Potatoes' CALLING ALL GARLIC LOVERS! MMMM.............garlic breath!!!! lol
Garlic Mashed Potatoes
Grandma's Candied Pickles I adapted my grandma's candied pickles recipe. My family couldn't believe how good they were!
Green Beans Pomodoro
Green Beans That Everybody Loves The last time I cooked this I used Allen's green beans and everybody thought they were fresh.
Enjoy
Grilled Oatmeal I feel the same....a prayer for Julia...I learned & enjoyed so much from her books...etc. hence my love of all things rich...Ha. here is a reallly good oatmeal recipe.
We serve this with canadian bacon & scrambled eggs and I’m going to try it as a side dish, flavored like barley.
Hearty Quinoa with Sauteed Apples & Almond My best quinoa dish.
Indian Cauliflower Garam Masala can also be bought pre-made, but I think it tastes better this way, especially if the cumin seeds are lightly toasted in a dry skillet before grinding.
Italian Eggplant Sandwiches ENJOY.......great for picnics!!!
Mashed Sweet Potato Surprise
Mediterranean Salad This makes a great side dish. Also tastes great added to wrap sandwiches.
Mexican Eggplant Hi.. just tried your eggplant chili.. very good. You might like my Mexican style eggplant.
Mushrooms Stuffed with Cream Cheese Filling This will make more filling than needed for 17 caps. Ideal would be about 25 caps. It is also good on slices of tomato but cook those on a separate baking sheet - they get very runny!
Mushrooms Stuffed With Cream Cheese Filling
Open Face Tuna Melt With Celery Canned white tuna comes from the large albacore and can be high in mercury content. Chunk light, on the other hand, which comes from smaller fish, skipjack or yellowfin, is best for health-conscious eaters. According to a recent study, canned white tuna samples averaged about 315 percent more mercury than chunk light tuna samples.
Overnight Refrigerator Pickles
Perfect Salad Sandwich
Pickled Veggies A friend gave me this recipe and I really like it. I added a couple of things to it. Hope you like it. There are no amounts listed as this is up to you.
Portabella Mushrooms Stuffed with Chili I was watching a local cooking show. They were doing all kinds of appetizers. One was portabella mushrooms stuffed with chili. It came with a chili recipe but was done with sausage. I happen to have some frozen chili. This is how I did it.
They’re better if you make them the day before so all the flavors can meld together. They were so good. I had extra and have been using them for an afternoon snack. Its a nice appetizer for a party.
Roast Sweet Potatoes My WHOLE family loved this, even my picky kids! I think part of it was in the marketing approach, as I just said they were “roasted potatoes” when I served them. Only after everyone had tried them and loved them did I let them in on my secret.
Roasted Squash with Red Onion Recipe by Anne Belle
Sourced from Country Living
Roasted Zucchini This quick and delicious snack or side dish is a great way to serve juicy roasted zucchini and summer squash. Add a dash of rosemary and garlic, and make bland dishes a thing of the past.
Sautéed Veggies If you like veggies, you will like this, even when it is cold.
Seafood Dip P.S. You could use canned crab meat instead of the Louis Kemp in this.
Smoked Turkey Roll-Ups I got this recipe from a Fresh Express ‘Carb Counter's Recipe Guide’ that was free with a purchase of a bag of their salad greens. This recipe is really easy to make and I liked it better with the mustard (but I also like spicy mustard)
Spaghetti Squash with that great Italian Taste!!!! Great side dish or lunch entree.
Spinach Artichoke Dip Life is busy; but I've been making some yummy legal dishes for holiday parties and wanted to share. Here are a couple of dips that are delicious with veggies, whole grain crisp breads or whole wheat pita bread.
Spinach Pie I made a Spinach Pie in a quiche dish today for lunch. It was quite good. I did not know how much to eat so I ate about a quarter of the pie. Hopefully it was not too much.
Steamed Tenderstem Broccoli with Lemon and Chilli Good vegetable dish gleaned from Prima
Sunflower Brussels Sprouts These Sunflower Brussels sprouts are really easy and delicious. Slicing the sprouts before cooking eliminates the bitterness usually seen with whole Brussels sprouts. We served ours last night with a marinated flank steak, grilled then cut on the bias. It was great
Sweet Potato/Pumpkin Custard You can easily cut this recipe in half, but we make extra because it makes great leftovers. Try serving it warm with a small scoop of low carb, low fat ice cream and a dollop of Cool Whip Light for a healthy and tasty dessert. It's good cold or reheated for breakfast, too. Cut back on the Splenda and brown sugar and substitute summer squash for some of the sweet potato or pumpkin and it makes a nice side dish. I've served it to three different groups and almost everyone has loved it.
Tofu, Tomato and Spring Onion Broth from SHE online
Tomato Salsa I do not take credits for this salsa, found it on epicurious.com. Seemed to have all the ingredients one is allowed in phase 1.
Venetian-Style Cabbage
Whole Wheat Bread Dressing I doubled the recipe and it was enough for 20 people with some left over.
Wild Rice and Chestnut Stuffing I used the real butter because it was only 1 tbsp. You could omit the sherry to make it more legal. I didn't roast my chestnuts. I cut the cross into them then boiled them for about half an hour. I also used dried sage as I didn't have fresh.
’Yum Neura Yang’ (Grilled beef salad) Please note that all my measurements are very approximate - we never measure, just dump things in and taste!
Another recipe for these barbecue days ....
Note: A 'yum' is a sour-peppery salad.
