Broco beans
———–
1 large onion
3 cloves garlic
3/4 lb mushrooms (I used a mix of oyster and normal)
1 teaspoon vecon (vegetable stock)
1/2 tsp salt
1 tsp black pepper
1 teaspoon sage
2 medium leeks
1/4 cup soya milk or tofu
1 lb cooked kidney beans
1 lb broccoli
Fry the onion and the garlic in some water until tender. Add the
mushrooms, the vegetable stock, the salt, pepper and sage. Leave
simmering until the mushrooms have reduced.
In a blender combine the chopped broccoli stalks, the kidney beans,
the chopped leeks, and the soya milk or tofu. Blend until smooth,
adding water if needed.
Add the blended mixture to the mushrooms. Add the broccoli florets and
any additional water needed to give a creamy consistency. Simmer till the
florets have softened.
Serve over pasta twirls. On this occasion I used Orgran’s Barley and
Spinach (wheat free) pasta.

DOLMATHES (STUFFED GRAPE LEAVES) #1
Recipe By :
Serving Size : 30 Preparation Time :0:00
Categories : Appetizers Greek
Amount Measure Ingredient — Preparation Method
——– ———— ——————————–
—–JUDI M. PHELPS—–
30 To 40 grape leaves *
1/2 c Olive oil
1 md Onion — finely chopped
1/2 c Raw long-grain rice
1/4 c Pine nuts
3 tb Tomato paste
Juice of 1 lemon
1/2 ts Cinnamon
1/4 ts Salt
3/4 c — boiling water
Lemon wedges — for garnish
*These leaves are packed in jars in brine.
Rinse grape leaves in warm water and drain in a
colander. In a medium saucepan, heat 2 tablespoons
olive oil over moderate heat. Add onion and saute
until limp. Add rice and pine nuts and saute,
stirring 3-4 minutes.
Add tomato paste, lemon juice, cinnamon, salt, and
boiling water. Cover and cook over low heat for 15-20
minutes or until rice is tender and all liquid is
absorbed. Remove from heat and let stand covered for
one hour.
Placing a grape leaf right side up in front of you,
place a heaping teaspoon of filling in a horizontal
line along the middle of the leaf. Roll stem end of
leaf up over filling, then fold in sides, then fold
over top. Squeeze the stuffed rolled grape leaf gently
in your hand; this will help keep it closed. Continue
stuffing grape leaves until all the filling is used.
Pour 2 tablespoons olive oil in the bottom of a lage
shallow pot or frying pan. Place the stuffed grape
leaves close together in a single layer in the pot.
Pour over remaining 1/4 cup olive oil. Place a large
heavy plate or flat casserole cover over the grape
leaves to keep them from unfolding while they cook.
Cover the pot and cook over very low heat for one
hour. Let cool with plate on top of them. Remove from
pan and refrigerate. (These are best made a day or two
or up to a week ahead.) Bring to room temperature
before serving. Serve garnished with lemon wedges.

Seven Vegetable Couscous
Ingredients:
1 pkg couscous
1 tsp turmeric
2 med. onions, chopped
1 cup finely shredded cabbage
1 med. turnip, peeled and diced
1 med. yellow summer squash,
chopped in 1/4″ pieces
1-1/2 cups cooked garbanzo beans
1-1/2 cups diced ripe tomatoes
1 tsp freshly grated ginger root
1/2 tsp each: ground cumin,
coriander, turmeric
water as needed
Prepare couscous according to package, stirring in couscous when you fluff
it. Or try substituting brown rice. I was out of couscous last week, so I
used brown rice with turmeric and it was wonderful!
Saute onions until tender in a large saucepan or soup pot using your
favorite oil substitute. Add remaining ingredients except water. Cover and
reduce heat to low. Cook, stirring occasionally, for 15 to 20 min. Add
water as needed to produce a moist, but not soupy stew. Serve over couscous
or brown rice.
To make some of this easier, I used canned chickpeas. You could probably
use canned tomatoes as well. One ingredient I wouldn’t dare leave out is
the fresh ginger root !! I store my ginger root in the freezer wrapped in
plastic. When I want to use some, I take out a chunk, peel as much as I
want to use and grate, it grates much easier when frozen.

crisco and add sugar and beat til well blended. you may have to
heat
the gelatin to dissolve it, so let it cool before whipping into the
crisco mix. hp
