Parmesan-Proscuitto Cornmeal Triangles

Recipe By :
Serving Size : 4 Preparation Time :0:00
Categories : LowCal (Less than 300 cals) LowerCarbs
LowFat (Less than 25%) Meat

Amount Measure Ingredient -- Preparation Method
-------- ------------ --------------------------------
1 cup 1% low-fat milk
1 cup water
1 teaspoon minced garlic
1/4 teaspoon dried thyme
1/4 teaspoon salt
1/8 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
1 cup fine cornmeal
2 ounces thinly sliced prosciutto -- chopped
3 tablespoons chopped fresh parsley
4 tablespoons grated Parmesan cheese
1 teaspoon olive oil

Coat an 8-inch square baking pan with baking spray.

In a medium saucepan over medium-high heat, combine the milk, water,
garlic, thyme, salt, and pepper. Bring to a boil and gradually whisk in
the cornmeal, stirring constantly. Reduce the heat to low, cover, and
cook, stirring occasionally, for 5 minutes, or until thick. Remove from
the heat and stir in the prosciutto, parsley and 3 tablespoons of the
cheese. Spread into the bottom of the prepared pan. Press plastic wrap
onto the surface and chill for 4 hours.

Preheat the broiler. Coat a baking sheet with cooking spray.

Remove the cornmeal, or polenta, mixture from the refrigerator and turn
out onto a cutting board. Cut into 4 equal triangles. Transfer to the
prepared baking sheet and brush with the oil. Sprinkle with the remaining
cheese. Broil 4-inches from the heat for 3 to 4-inches from the heat for 3
to 4 minutes, or until golden and hot. Serve immediately.

Make ahead by preparing the recipe up to the point of cutting into wedges.
Refrigerate for up to 2 days, then follow the recipe as directed.

Makes 4 servings

AuthorNote: This scrumptious side dish completes your meals with a healthy
serving of complex carbohydrates. Make a batch on the weekend and your
midweek meal will come together in no time flat.

ChupaNote: this makes a great starter, cut into 2-inch squares instead of
4 wedges. Its also lovely with cornedbeef, white cheddar and dill weed
instead of parsley. Any little bits of leftover meat can be used, and the
Parmesan switched out for other cheese, the parsley replaced with other
herbs.

Tropical Brown Rice Pudding

Recipe By :
Serving Size : 6 Preparation Time :0:00
Categories : LowCal (Less than 300 cals) LowerCarbs
LowFat (Less than 20%) Veggie

Amount Measure Ingredient -- Preparation Method
-------- ------------ --------------------------------
1 1/2 cups water
1 tablespoon grated lemon peel
1/4 teaspoon salt
1/2 cup brown rice
3 cups 2% low-fat milk
1 tablespoon vanilla extract
3 tablespoons packed brown sugar
To serve: -- chopped mango or papaya (optional)
To serve: -- 1/4 cup shredded coconut (optional)

In a large saucepan, combine the water, 1 1/2 teaspoons of the lemon peel,
and the salt. Bring to a boil and add the rice. Reduce the heat and
simmer, covered, for 40 minutes, or until the rice is tender and most of
the water is absorbed.

Stir in the milk, vanilla, sugar, and the remaining lemon peel. Bring to a
boil. Reduce the heat to low and simmer for 40 to 45 minutes, stirring
frequently to prevent sticking, especially toward the end of the cooking
time, until the pudding thickens and the rice is very tender. (It will
thicken more on standing.) Pour the pudding into a bowl and let cool to
room temperature, stirring occasionally. Cover with plastic wrap and
refrigerate 4 hours (or overnight) until chilled.

To serve, spoon the pudding into 6 individual serving dishes. Top with the
mango or papaya, if using, and coconut, if using.

Makes 6 servings
Prep time: 20 mins
Cook time: 1 hour 20 mins
Chill time: 4 hours or overnight

AuthorNote: You'll love this dessert's unique coupling of nutty and sweet
flavors. We've used brown rice so you get even more nutritious fiber.

LowFat (Less than 30%) Vegan

Amount Measure Ingredient -- Preparation Method
-------- ------------ --------------------------------
1 tablespoon olive oil
1 large onion -- coarsely chopped
1 red bell pepper -- coarsely chopped
2 celery ribs -- chopped
1/4 teaspoon salt
1/4 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
1 1/2 teaspoons ground cumin
1/4 teaspoon dried oregano

AuthorNote: Interestingly, sweet potatoes are not botanically related to
the potato. They are actually members of the morning glory family. With a
respectable amount of protein and high levels of fiber and complex
carbohydrates, sweet potatoes are a key ingredient in a blood sugar
balancing act.

ChupaNote: add a can of canned, drained black beans for more fiber, color,
protein and servings.
