What's For Dinner? - #253
Comments (100)Beanthere, here is the recipe that Monique posted over on Gardenbuddies. Monique's picture accompanying the recipe is definitely magazine cover worthy. On-the-go lemon loaf with pistachios Flecks of green pistachios make this luscious lemon loaf even more appealing. The sweet-tart lemon glaze helps keep the bread incredibly moist. 220 calories Preparation time 15 minutes Baking Time 55 minutes Makes 16 slices 1-3/4 cups (425 mL) all-purpose flour 1 tsp (5 mL) baking powder 1/2 tsp (2 mL) salt 1 lemon 1 cup (250 mL) coarsely chopped shelled pistachios 1/2 cup (125 mL) unsalted butter, at room temperature 1-1/4 cups (300 mL) granulated sugar 2 eggs 1 tsp (5 mL) vanilla 2/3 cup (150 mL) milk 1.Preheat oven to 350F (180C). Lightly oil or spray a 9x5-inch (2-L) loaf pan. In a medium-size bowl, using a fork, stir flour with baking powder and salt. Grate peel from lemon, then stir in. Coarsely chop nuts. In a large bowl, using an electric mixer on medium speed, beat butter until smooth. Gradually beat in 1 cup (250 mL) sugar until well mixed, 2 minutes. Beat in eggs, vanilla and milk. Using a wooden spoon, stir in flour mixture until batter is moist. Stir in nuts. Do not overmix. Scrape batter into prepared loaf pan. Smooth top. 2.Bake in centre of preheated 350F (180C) oven until deep golden brown and a cake tester or skewer inserted into centre of loaf comes out clean, 55 to 65 minutes. Meanwhile, squeeze 3 tbsp (45 mL) juice from lemon into a small bowl. Stir in 1/4 cup (50 mL) sugar. It won't completely dissolve. When loaf is baked, remove pan to a rack. Using a cake tester or skewer, immediately poke several holes in top of loaf. Brush or drizzle half of lemon glaze over hot loaf. Cool in pan 10 minutes, then run a knife around inside of pan to loosen loaf. Carefully turn out loaf, then turn top side up on a rack. Evenly brush or drizzle remaining lemon glaze overtop. Great warm or at room temperature. Or cool completely, then wrap in plastic, then foil. Bread will keep well at room temperature 1 day or refrigerate up to a week or freeze up to 2 months. Packed To Go Slice bread, then place on a plastic tray and wrap in plastic. Or store in a covered container. Courtesy of Chatelaine magazine . *****My notes.. I wrapped this bread quite tightly almost as soon as it was cooled..This morning it was as moist as can be..and lemony luscious.I added some lemon juice to the batter also as I love the taste of lemons.

Comments (17)Stargazzer, some bodies will tolerate anything, and we hope yours is one of them. Like most debates involving foods and food "enhancements," this is not just a question of "Will this kill me?" but more of "How will it impact my quality of life?" For some people, apparently there's no impact. For others, the impact can range from slight to huge. But Pris stated the bottom line well. Whether we believe the emails about aspartame or not, the fact is a compelling amount of empirical evidence exists that leads us to the conclusion that it can be damaging. I can add my own: As I've stated here before, when aspartame first came out, I fell for the reassuring name (NutraSweet--how clever these marketing people!) and tried it. I soon figured out that it gave me instant joint pain. One of my daughters found it gave her migraines. And that's the truth....See MoreAnyone with Food Restrictions?
Comments (16)Matti5 - so glad to hear you were finally diagnosed and feeling so much better. I live in Canada - I had the blood test you speak of. In Ontario, if you have the test at the hospital - it's free of charge. If you have the test at the Dr's office it costs $130.00. I had it at the hospital and the results came back negative for Celiac. I've had 2 endoscopies and 1 colonoscopy and all is well. In fact, after the second endoscopy and biopsies, the Internist called me on a Saturday morning to tell me everything was perfect. Two years ago I had a total hysterectomy - the doctor had to leave my cervix as it has adhered to my abdominal wall. I tell you - I give up! This is sooo frustrating. bigbaby - I also fear that I will get tired of my own cooking. I am definitely going to look into the cookbook "Everyday Grain Free Gourmet". My 20 yr old son has a red meat allergy, so we eat a lot of chicken, turkey and a bit of fish. When he was little, and I'd make a hamburger patty for him, he'd push it away. He would do the same with roast beef and pork. I was concerned and took him for allergy testing. The doctor confirmed he was allergic to beef, pork, veal, lamb. He can eat free range beef (but having gone without it most of his life, he doesn't like the texture). Will definitely post on Tuesday after my Dr's appt. Can't wait.

Comments (35)Here are the same plants above, pics taken Dec 31. Tangerine. It is way more yellow than it appears in the photo. Seeing how dark it was back in Sep/Oct is discouraging, but at least it hasn't lost any leaves. Lemon. Holding up pretty well. No yellowing. Has some new growth but as you can see the new leaves have so far stayed very small. Hopefully they'll grow more as the days get brighter. Kumquat. Some yellowing on the top leaves but the rest of it looks good. Has some new growth coming on in the middle of the plant but you can't really see it in the pic. I'll take some more pics in the Spring. They sit in a sunny windowsill during the day, and before I go to work in the afternoon I put them under a daylight CFL in a foil-lined box....See MoreOlychick
