1 lb. new potatoes
2 scallions (green onions)
2 tsp. white vinegar
1/2 tsp sugar
4 tsp fresh dill
2 tbsp low cal mayonnaise or sour cream

Makes: 6 to 8 servings

0) Peel potato and dice into cubes. Boil potatoes and add salt.
1) Chop scallions into fine pieces and saute (in olive oil) until browned.
2) Drain water off potatoes. Mix with scallions. Add vinegar, sugar and dill.
3) Mix together, then add mayo (or sour cream).

I got this recipe off of a bunch of fresh dill. To give credit where
credit is due, I think the company name is LittleBear. It is the FRESH
dill that makes this salad…

I also added bacon to this recipe, left out the sugar, and went a little
crazy with the dill. There is no need to measure ingredients for this one!
Hope you like it.

Tips:
To make the cream extra fluffy, chill the cream, mixing bowl and
beaters for at least 3 hours before beating.

Make sure that the orange juice mixture and strawberry puree is at
about the same temperature, so it will combine more easily; (no
lumps). SLOWLY whisk juice mixture into puree.

I found the recipe in the rec.food.recipes archives… it does indeed
suggest adding an egg, though I’ve never tried adding one [insert
standard warnings]. Maybe I was missing the vanilla — and the
blender… moved 3 yrs ago, blender is still hiding. 🙂

Here’s the updated vlf version:

Orange Julius

6 oz frozen orange juice concentrate
8 oz nonfat milk (or 1/3c nonfat milk powder + 7oz water)
8 oz water
1 tsp vanilla extract
8-9 ice cubes

Combine all ingredients, except ice cubes, in blender. Blend 1-2 minutes,
adding ice cubes one at a time. You may want to add a bit of sugar.

Original recipe posted by diane@sulu.biostat.washington.edu (“Diane
Janssen”), who suggested using other fruit juices and varying the amount
of milk and water to modify the richness.
