Southwestern-Style Lasagna with Refried Beans, Corn, and Hominy

Recipe By :
Serving Size : 8 Preparation Time :0:00
Categories : Vegan

Amount Measure Ingredient -- Preparation Method
-------- ------------ --------------------------------
1 tablespoon canola oil
1 cup canned white hominy -- drained
1 cup cooked yellow corn kernels -- fresh or frozen
4 scallions -- white and green parts, thinly sliced
garlic salt
freshly ground black pepper -- to taste
1/4 cup finely chopped fresh cilantro
16 ounces refried vegetarian beans -- (1 can)
2 cups chunky salsa -- mild or medium
6 oven-ready lasagne noodles
1/2 cup crushed tortilla chips

Preheat the oven to 375F. Lightly grease an 8-inch square baking dish and set aside.

In a medium nonstick skillet, heat the oil over medium heat. Add the hominy, corn, scallions, garlic salt, and pepper; cook, stirring, until scallions are softened and mixture is fragrant, 3 to 4 minutes. Remove from heat and toss with the cilantro. Set aside.

In a small bowl, mix together the refried beans and 1 cup of the salsa until well blended. Set aside.

Spread 1/4 cup of the remaining salsa along the bottom of the prepared baking dish; top with 2 noodles (break, if necessary, to fit). Spread half of the bean mixture on top of the noodles. Top the bean mixture with half of the hominy mixture. Top the hominy mixture with 2 more noodles. Top the noodles with the remaining bean mixture. Top with the remaining 2 noodles. Top the noodles with the remaining salsa.

Cover the baking dish with foil (lightly oil the underside if foil will touch the salsa) and bake 35 minutes. Remove the foil and sprinkle evenly with the crushed tortilla chips. Bake another 5 minutes, until topping is lightly browned. Let stand 5 minutes before cutting. Serve warm.

Makes 8 servings.

AuthorNote: Refried black beans can replace the standard pinto bean variety, if desired. Serve with a tossed green salad for a well-balanced meal.

(Weight-Watchers-Recipes) WW -Chocolate Bundt Cake

 

Hello all,

I did make this yesterday and it came out DELICIOUS! This is a winner. Also, it was very easy!

The recipe called to 'puree' the sauerkraut which I did. the cake consistency was very smooth and velvet like. Excellent. A friend of mine made this cake and did not puree it and she said it came out 'crispy' with a 'twang' of coconut taste. Also excellent. So, I guess it doesn't matter which way you do it. Bottom line: This is a WINNER @ only 4 points!

Have a great day everyone!

(Weight-Watchers-Recipes) WW -Chocolate Bundt Cake

 

My mom used to make a chocolate cake with saurkraut (not Weight Watchers). It was very tasty. The saurkraut helps to make the cake very moist, so that you don't have to use a lot of fat.

(Weight-Watchers-Recipes) WW -Chocolate Bundt Cake

 

Okay, here is the recipe:

First, the REAL name was 'Dark Chocolate Cake'. I renamed it because it was made in a Bundt pan.

I also emailed the recipe directly from the WW site to the group but not sure if it will make it....so here it is again.

Kate

----------------------------------------------------------

DARK CHOCOLATE CAKE

Ingredients:

1 spray(s) cooking spray
2 cups all-purpose flour
1 1/3 cup sugar
2/3 cup unsweetened cocoa
1/2 cup butter (melted)
1 1/2 cup hot water
1 tsp. vanilla extract
1 cup sauerkraut, pureed until smooth
1 tsp. unsweetened cocoa

Instructions:

Preheat oven to 350*F. Coat a Bundt pan with cooking spray.

In a large mixing bowl or in the bowl of an electric mixer, combine flour, sugar, baking soda & 2/3 cup of cocoa. Add melted butter, hot water & vanilla extract. MIX WELL. Add sauerkraut & blend thoroughly.

Pour batter into prepared pan. BAKE in center of oven until tester inserted comes out clean - about 55-60 minutes. Cool for 20 minutes. Turn out onto baking rack to cool completely. SPRINKLE with 1 teaspoon cocoa powder. SLICE into 14 pieces.

Note: You can easily change the flavor of this cake by adding strong coffee instead of the hot water.

POINTS: 4
Servings; 14

This cake's a winner. it is like a rich devil's food cake but is slimmed down by adding a secret ingredient, canned sauerkraut. (yes, you read that eight).

Quinoa Tabbouleh Salad

Recipe By :
Serving Size : 5 Preparation Time :0:00

Nepalese Spicy Toasted Tomato Sauce - 3g Carbohydrate; 1g Dietary Fiber

Recipe By :
Serving Size : 6 Preparation Time :0:00
Categories : Condiment LowCal (Less than 300 cals)
LowerCarbs LowFat (Less than 15%)
Vegan

Amount Measure Ingredient -- Preparation Method
-------- ------------ --------------------------------
3/4 pound ripe tomatoes
1 medium-hot red chile -- such as cayenne, Fresno, Holland or jalapeno
1 garlic clove -- chopped
2 teaspoons chopped fresh ginger
1/4 teaspoon salt
3 tablespoons water
1 teaspoon fresh lime juice -- or lemon juice (optional)
2 1/2 tablespoons finely chopped fresh cilantro -- or mint leaves
1/4 teaspoon ground toasted cumin seed -- or Sichuan peppercorn (optional)

Position an oven rack about 4-inches away from the broiler. Put the tomato and chile atop a piece of aluminum foil on a baking sheet and broil for about 6 minutes, or until the skins have pulled away and are a bit charred. Turn over and broil the other side for another 2 minutes. Continue, if necessary, to roast and char all over. Remove from the oven and set aside to cool.

Remove and discard the skins from the tomatoes and chile. Cut away the stems and, if you like less heat, scrape out and discard the chile seeds. Coarsely chop and set aside.

Combine the garlic, ginger, and salt in a mortar and pound with the pestle into a fragrant paste. Add the chile and pound to a rough texture. Add the tomatoes and gently mix to bread the tomato apart. It will remain chunky. Transfer to a bowl, then stir in the water, lime juice, cilantro and cumin. (For a fine texture, use an electric mini-chopper and process in stages to ensure a smooth consistency. Blend the water and lime juice with the tomato. Stir in the cilantro and cumin to finish.)

Set the sauce aside for 30 minutes to blend the flavors. Taste and add extra salt for depth, lime juice to cut the heat, or water to thin out the sauce. Aim for a medium-hot tang. This sauce is best enjoyed the day you prepare it, but it can be refrigerated overnight and returned to room temperature before serving.

Makes 1 1/2 cups (6 one-quarter cup servings).

AuthorNote: When you present dumplings with this sauce, the combination may recall an Italian pasta dish, but the sauce's zesty qualities resemble the Latin flavors of Mexico more than of Europe. But on closer analysis, the combination of chile, ginger, herbs, and spices is definitely Asian, specifically Nepal's Himalayan cuisine, which blends Chinese, Indian, and Tibetan traditions. IN the Nepalese repertoire, this sauce is a type of 'achar' (a moniker for chutneys and pickles) and is what typically accompanies 'momo' (dumplings), it's great with Tibetan momo, too.

With a tangy edge, moderate heat, and spiced depth, the sauce has a multilayered punch that begins seemingly subtle but finishes with a certain feistiness. Sometimes ground toasted sesame seeds are added for richness, but I find that they mute the other flavors too much.

I do not seed chiles, as their natural heat contributes wonderful excitement to foods. However, if you want to lessen the burn, remove both the seeds and the pithy membrane from the chiles before using them.

Asian Sweet and Sour Sauce - 1 pt

Recipe By :
Serving Size : 8 Preparation Time :0:00
Categories : Condiment LowCal (Less than 300 cals)
LowerCarbs LowFat (Less than 5%)
Veggie

Amount Measure Ingredient -- Preparation Method
-------- ------------ --------------------------------
1/4 cup sugar -- or lightly packed light brown sugar
1/4 teaspoon salt
1 tablespoon ketchup
1 tablespoon light (regular) soy sauce
3 tablespoons unseasoned rice vinegar -- or cider vinegar
1/2 cup water
2 teaspoons cornstarch -- dissolved in 2 tablespoons water

Combine the sugar, salt, ketchup, soy sauce, vinegar, and water in a small saucepan. Bring to a near boil over medium heat, stirring occasionally to dissolve the sugar. Give the cornstarch a stir and then add it to the pan. Continue cooking, stirring, for about 15 seconds, or until the sauce comes to a full boil and thickens.

Remove from the heat, transfer to a serving bowl, and set aside for 10 minutes to cool and concentrate in flavor. Taste and add extra salt, if needed. Serve warm or at room temperature. Feel free to prepare this sauce a day in advance.

Makes 1 cup (8 two-tablespoon servings).

AuthorNote: A rich, dark honey color, this tart-sweet-savory sauce does not resemble the cloying, sticky, bright red sauce that's served at Chinese restaurants. You can whip it up quickly to enjoy with snacks such as fried wontons. For spicy tropical flair, use unsweetened pineapple juice instead of water and include 2 teaspoons of minced ginger and a chopped Thai chile (pepper) with the other seasonings at the beginning.
