Categories: Sauces, Dips
Yield: 12 Servings

1 Can (about 8 oz) crushed
-pineapple in juice,
-undrained
1/2 c MARIE’S Glaze for Peaches
1/2 ts Grated fresh ginger OR
1/4 ts Ground ginger

In small bowl, combine undrained pineapple, glaze and
ginger. Cover; refrigerate until serving time. Use
sauce as a dip for hot egg rolls or chicken nuggets or
use to baste chicken or ribs during broiling or
grilling. Makes about 1 1/2 cups sauce.
TIP: Fresh ginger can be found in the produce section
of most supermarkets and in Oriental markets. When
buying fresh ginger (gingerroot), select a piece that’s
firm and heavy; avoid shriveled pieces. To store, wrap

Purchase ground ginger as you do other spices and store
in cool, dry dark place.

    Stuffed Squash

    Serving Size : Preparation Time :
    Categories :New Text Import

    Amount Measure Ingredient — Preparation Method
    ——– ———— ——————————–
    1 large spaghetti squash
    1 cup dried tomatoes (I use the dry ones, not packed
    in oil)
    1/2 cup dried shiitake mushrooms (or porcini)
    3 cloves garlic
    1 cup bread crumbs (or whole stale bread)
    1 cup fresh button mushrooms — chopped
    1 Jerusalem artichoke — peeled and chopped
    2 tsp basil
    1 tsp oregano
    1 tsp rosemary — crushed
    dash salt
    1 dash balsamic vinegar (or red wine vinegar)
    about 1/2 cup water

    Preheat the oven to 350 F. Halve the squash and scoop out the insides.
    Place cut-side down in a baking pan and bake for about 20 minutes, or until
    it begins to get soft.

    Soak the dried tomatoes and mushrooms separately in hot water.

    Throw the garlic into a food processor while the machine is running.
    Process until the garlic is completely chopped. Throw in the stale bread
    and process until you have large crumbs. Empty into a medium mixing bowl.

    Add the fresh mushrooms, artichoke, herbs and salt to the bowl. When the
    dried tomatoes and mushrooms have softened, chop and add to the bowl.

    Turn the squash halves over and fill. Add water to the filling to keep the
    squash from getting too dry. Makes 4 servings.

    Bake another 10 minutes. Serve hot

    – – – – – – – – – – – – – – – – – –

    NOTES : 1) I served the squash as halves. You may also scoop the squash out and
    serve it like pasta in a large bowl, mixed with the filling.

    2) The filling would also be good if it were lightly sauteed in the balsamic
    vinegar and water before adding it to the squash.

    3) Any mild-flavored squash would be just as good, such as zucchini. I also
    have a fondness for adding pumpkin puree to my spaghetti sauce, which leads
    me to believe that even the very flavorful winter squashes may make good
    containers for this filling.

  • Gingerbread Cookies

    Recipe

    Here is the recipe that my SO and I have used for the past 3+ years.
    We have made it at least 10-15 times with good, consistent results.
    It makes a fairly dense, chewy style of cookie – just what we like.

    Gingerbread cookies

    1/4 cup applesauce
    1/2 cup brown sugar
    1 1/2 cups dark molasses (blackstrap gives a tart taste is FULL of
    IRON – if you use it, dont use more than
    1/3 cup of blackstrap)
    1/2 cup cold water
    3 cups white flour
    3 cups whole wheat flour
    2 t allspice
    2 t ginger
    2 t cloves
    2 t cinnamon
    2 t vanilla
    2 t baking soda
    1/2 t salt
    1 T cold water

    Mix the applesauce, brown sugar and molasses together thoroughly. Stir in 1/2
    cup cold water and vanilla.

    Mix together dry ingredients. Add to the dough. Add 1 T cold water. Mix
    well.

    Cover bowl and chill dough (for at least one hour.)

    Preheat oven to 350. Roll out dough thick (1/2 inch). Cuts with small glass
    (1-2 inch diameter). Place on lightly oiled (sprayed) cookie sheet.

    Bake about 10 minutes (until no imprint remains when touched lightly with
    finger).

    Notes:
    This recipe is from Sonja and William Conner’s The New American Diet (pp.
    365).
