Thanks! ok I think I will look for this when I go to the grocery. I think I could use this with my bean soup. :-)


Today I found this recipe for unleavened Pita Bread. I was thinking about just making this from scratch:

:grin: I feel like I went on an adventure! It was a serious challenge finding unleavened bread. I eventually came home with this:

I also found some Whole Wheat Flour.

I saw, but didn't buy, a grain and whole wheat flour mix because it was marketed as pasty flour. The Whole Wheat Flour seems like it would make bread.

I think I'm back on track! :) I will be sure to post pics later. I've learned so much from this site and appreciate the help.

Nice....I have this one too and its so much lighter than the other, but I like them both.

Let me know how you like the flour. I think I'm at the point where I will be going on a full fast for a few days, so I won't be posting pics of food but I will come in and check out your recipes:lick:!

I'm glad you are doing well....you bless me everytime I come into this thread! :love2:

For a really delicious snack (or meal) smash a whole Avocado. Cut up half of a tomato...juice from half of lime and some salt and pepper to taste. Here I have a Wasa Crisp cracker with it and it was delicious!!!:lick:

This has been my snack all week but I eat it with plain rice cakes. It's yummy!
 
I made Vegetable Lo Mein last night and it was amazing!!! I will definitely keep making it after the fast. The recipe and link is below. I substituted the chicken broth with vegetable broth and I used brown rice spaghetti instead of regular spaghetti. Oh and I didn't use the chow mein noodles.

http://allrecipes.com/recipe/vegetable-lo-mein-delight/

Ingredients:
8 ounces angel hair pasta
3/4 cup chicken broth
1/4 cup soy sauce
1 tablespoon cornstarch
2 tablespoons canola oil
1 3/4 cups chopped celery

1 3/4 cups sliced fresh mushrooms
1 3/4 cups sliced red bell peppers
1/2 cup sliced onion
2 cups bean sprouts
2 cups snow peas
1 cup chow mein noodles
Directions:
1. Bring a pot of lightly salted water to a boil. Add angel hair pasta and cook for 3 to 5 minutes or until al dente; drain.
2. In a small bowl, whisk together the chicken broth, soy sauce, and cornstarch.
3. Heat the oil in a wok over medium-high heat. Stir in the celery, mushrooms, peppers, and onion, and cook about 3 minutes. Add the broth mixture, bean sprouts, and snow peas. Continue to cook and stir about 5 minutes, until vegetables are tender but crisp.
4. In a large bowl, toss together the cooked pasta and the vegetable mixture. Top with chow mein noodles to serve.

Ooooohhhhh...this sounds sooooooo good!!!

Does Soy Sauce have sugar in it?
 
I'm making these right now:lick:....I need a snack right about now and this looks perfect!!!



I'm addicted to banana chips but hate all the extras in the store bought version, will have to try these -- Slice banana into thin chips, dip in lemon juice, and spread on a cookie sheet. Bake for 2 hours @ 200 degrees and flip. Bake for another 1.5-2 hours or until crisp. (They wont be totally crisp in the oven, but will harden as they cool) IMPORTANT STEP: Spray the cookie sheet with PAM

ETA: Ok, made them and they are good. I suggest not slicing them too thin because some of them came out a little rubbery, but its such a great treat when you want something sweet without having anything with sugar in it...delicious.:lick:

Recipe
Crash Hot Potatoes

Prep Time: 30 MinutesCook Time: 25 MinutesDifficulty: EasyServings:6
Crash-Hot-Potatoes-420x278.png

Ingredients


  • 12 whole New Potatoes (or Other Small Round Potatoes)
  • 3 Tablespoons Olive Oil
  • Kosher Salt To Taste
  • Black Pepper To Taste
  • Rosemary (or Other Herbs Of Choice) To Taste
Preparation Instructions

Bring a pot of salted water to a boil. Add in as many potatoes as you wish to make and cook them until they are fork-tender.
On a sheet pan, generously drizzle olive oil. Place tender potatoes on the cookie sheet leaving plenty of room between each potato.
With a potato masher, gently press down each potato until it slightly mashes, rotate the potato masher 90 degrees and mash again. Brush the tops of each crushed potato generously with more olive oil.
Sprinkle potatoes with kosher salt, fresh ground black pepper and fresh chopped rosemary (or chives or thyme or whatever herb you have available.)
Bake in a 450 degree oven for 20-25 minutes until golden brown.

Supplies Needed:

  • fruit -- whatever kind you like (except no bananas); make sure it's good and ripe for maximum sweetness and flavor. I like to use all kinds of citrus and berries. I also found pineapple and watermelon to work well for flavoring water. If you don't want to buy whole ones, many grocery stores sell small containers of pre-cut fruit.
  • herbs -- these are optional, but many herbs are a surprising complement to fruit flavors; almost any herb will work depending on your personal preference
  • jars or pitchers -- I use 2 quart mason jars primarily, but any 2 quart pitcher will do.
    fruit infusion pitcher--I recently purchased one of these--it's another option if you think you'll be making infused waters regularly; a very easy, tidy way to strain fruit from water.
    fruit infusion water bottle--I love using this for a portable, on-the-go option.
  • muddler or wooden spoon for mashing fruit and herbs
  • water -- I use filtered water, but regular tap water is fine if yours tastes good to you
Here is the website for all the recipes for the flavor waters:

Does Soy Sauce have sugar in it?
Click to expand...

Nice & Wavy -- You know I read the label several times to make sure it was safe and that soy sauce doesn't have sugar in it but today is the first time I noticed that it has corn syrup and now I'm alarmed. I thought soy sauce was safe because corn is a whole grain. The fast allows whole grains and soy products, but now I'm wondering if corn syrup is considered a sweetener that we should stay away from. What do you think?

I'm going to throw out the rest of my pasta to be safe. God knows my heart so I'm not going to dwell on the fact that I may have slipped up on the fast. My intentions were pure. :yep: Sorry ladies, I didn't mean to post a recipe that's not good for the fast.

NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO.....DON'T THROW OUT YOUR FOOD!!!!!!! I just looked it up and it seems that its ok to eat. I'm sorry, I wasn't sure either that's why I asked if it did have sugar. I didn't mean to imply that it does. I sure do hope you didn't throw it out cause then I will feel terrible:sad::sad::sad:

Nice & Wavy - Awww! Don't feel bad. I did throw it out but I didn't have much left anyway. I got kinda greedy for lunch :nono: and I had lunch before I read your comment. Your post didn't make me feel bad, I just wanted to be obedient to the fast. I just saw throwing out the balance as more sacrifice to God. I'll make it again after the fast to be safe.

Hi ladies, I'm here looking for more recipe options. Here is my breakfast for today, steamed diced apples with cinnamon, allspice, nutmeg and some EVOO. Also, spinach sauteed with garlic and portabello mushrooms. It was all very good :lick:

Dinner, I found a recipe on Pinterest and tweaked it a little, I used fresh corn from the cob as I did not have chickpeas and I left out the parmesan cheese. The broccoli was roasted in the oven first with garlic, I chopped up the sun-dried tomatoes and tossed everything together with EVOO.

YUM!
