Title: Golden Potato Rolls
Categories: Diabetic, Breads/bm, Vegetables
Yield: 1 batch

1 pk Active dry yeast (1/4 oz.) 1/2 c Sugar
1/2 c Warm water 2 ts Salt
-(110-115 degrees F.) 8 c To 8 1/2 C A-p flour,
1 c Milk -divided
3/4 c Shortening or margarine 2 Eggs, beaten
1 1/4 c Leftover mashed potatoes

Dissolve yeast in water; set aside. In a saucepan, combine milk,
shortening, and potatoes; cook and stir over low heat just until
shortening is melted. Remove from the heat and place in a large bowl
with sugar, salt, 2 cups of flour and the yeast mixture. Add eggs;
mix well. Cover loosely and allow to stand for 2 hours (the dough
will be like a sponge). Stir in enough of the remaining flour to make
a soft dough. Turn out onto a floured surface and knead until smooth
and elastic, about 6 minutes. Place in a greased bowl, turning once
to grease top. Cover and let rise in a warm place until doubled,
about 1 hour. Punch down and divide into thirds. On a floured surface
roll each portion into a 12 inch circle. Cut each circle into 12 pie
shape wedges. Beginning at the wide end, roll up each wedge. Place
rolls, point side down, on greased baking sheets. Cover and let rise
30 minutes or until nearly doubled. Bake at 400 degrees F. for 15
minutes or until golden. Yield: 3 dozen.

Winter Squash Soup With Lemon Grass And Coconut Milk

Recipe By : “Vegetarian Cooking for Everyone” (adapted) by D. Madison
Serving Size : 1 Preparation Time :0:00
Categories : Soups And Stews Vegetables

Amount Measure Ingredient — Preparation Method
——– ———— ——————————–
3 slices fresh ginger — (1/4-in.)
1 cinnamon stick — (3-in.)
2 teaspoons coriander seeds
1 teaspoon cumin seeds
1/4 teaspoon cardamom seeds
4 cloves
1 tablespoon peanut oil
2 1/2 pounds peeled seeded butternut squash
coarsely chopped — (4 c.)
1 large onion — diced
2 jalapeño chiles — minced, divided
Tender middle section from 1 lemon- — minced
grass stalk

6 cups vegetable — (or chicken) stock
1 cup unsweetened coconut milk — (see Note)
Salt to taste
Juice from 2 limes
1 tablespoon chopped fresh basil
1 tablespoon chopped fresh cilantro
1 tablespoon chopped fresh mint

This sweetly fragrant soup is adapted from Madison’s vegetarian book. To
peel the squash, first cut it in half crosswise, then place the pieces cut
side down on a cutting board. Use a small sharp knife to cut the peel
away, working from the top of the squash down to the cutting board.

Note: Coconut milk is a canned product, not the liquid in a fresh coconut.
It can be found at most supermarkets, either with the Asian foods or with
the canned milk.

In cloth spice bag or piece of cheesecloth, tie ginger, cinnamon,
coriander, cumin, cardamom and cloves.

Warm the oil in a soup pot over medium heat. Add squash, onion, half the
minced chiles, and the lemongrass and garlic. Cook 10 minutes, stirring
occasionally. Add stock and spice bag. Bring to boil. Reduce heat to low
and simmer soup, partially covered, until squash is tender, about 30
minutes. Remove spice bag.

Puree soup, then return it to heat and stir in coconut milk. Heat
thoroughly. Add salt and lime juice. Stir in herbs and remaining minced
chile and serve. Makes 2 quarts; 4 to 6 servings.

1 cn Vanilla frosting
Yellow food coloring
1 Egg white — beaten

frosting on flat side of each vanilla wafer and then a
bit of tinted coconut. Place a Keebler cookie on top
of that with a little bit of frosting and cover with
flat sideof another vanilla wafer, using a little
pressure to force some of the frosting to drip over

used to wrap the McDonald’s hamburgers in. Store at
