I've only just started making food properly and I have no idea what I can make.
Could you please give me some easy to make dinners that are relatively healthy.
Thanks Healthy Food Recipes? ?
There are so many recipes, and I'm not sure what you like, but here are some of my favorites...
***Chicken Stir-Fry Wraps***
1 1/2 pounds boneless, skinless chicken breasts, halved horizontally and thinly sliced
Coarse salt and ground pepper
2 tablespoons olive oil
1 large onion, halved and thinly sliced
1 large red bell pepper, ribs and seeds removed, thinly sliced
3 cloves garlic, minced
1 1/2 teaspoons grated peeled fresh ginger
1/4 to 1/2 teaspoon red-pepper flakes
3 tablespoons soy sauce
3 tablespoons rice vinegar
1 1/2 teaspoons cornstarch, mixed with 1 tablespoon water
12 to 16 Boston lettuce leaves (about 2 heads)
Directions
Season chicken with salt and pepper. In a large nonstick skillet, heat 1 tablespoon oil over high heat. Add half the chicken; cook, stirring constantly, until opaque throughout, 2 to 4 minutes. Transfer to a plate. Repeat with remaining chicken.
Add remaining tablespoon oil to pan, along with the onion and bell pepper. Cook, stirring constantly, until onion is tender and golden, about 4 minutes (reduce heat if browning too quickly).
Reduce heat to medium; add garlic, ginger, and red-pepper flakes; cook, stirring, until fragrant, 30 to 60 seconds.
Stir in soy sauce, vinegar, and cornstarch mixture; remove from heat. Add chicken and any accumulated juices; toss to coat. Serve in lettuce cups.
***Black Bean Chili***
4 large poblano peppers
2 tablespoons extra virgin olive oil (EVOO)
1 jalape帽o pepper, seeded and finely chopped
1 large onion, chopped
4 garlic cloves, finely chopped or grated
Salt and freshly ground black pepper
2 cans black beans (15 ounces), drained of half their liquid
2 tablespoons chili powder (a large palmful)
2 teaspoons ground cumin (about half a palmful)
1/2 teaspoon allspice (eyeball it)
1 bottle dark lager beer, such as ***** Modelo
1 can crushed fire-roasted tomatoes (15 ounce can or half a 28o ounce can)
2 cups beef or vegetable stock (use vegetable to make it vegetarian)
Hot sauce, to taste
1/2 cup sour cream, for garnish
1/2 cup chopped cilantro, for garnish
PreparationHeat broiler to high.
Char the poblanos under the broiler so their skins blacken, 7-8 minutes. Place in a bowl, cover with plastic wrap, and let stand 10 minutes. Once the peppers have cooled enough to handle, peel and seed them, then roughly chop them up and set them aside.
Place a medium-size pot over medium-high heat with 2 tablespoons EVOO, about two turns of the pan. Add the jalape帽o, onion and garlic to the pan, and cook 6-7 minutes, until the veggies are tender. Season with salt and freshly ground black pepper, then add in the beer, scraping up any brown bits from the bottom of the pan. Cook a few minutes to reduce the liquid by half, then add the black beans and their liquid, the chopped poblanos, spices, crushed tomatoes and stock. Bring up to a bubble, then reduce the heat and simmer to thicken slightly, about 5 minutes. Adjust the seasoning with salt and freshly ground pepper as needed.
Serve the chili up and pass around hot sauce, sour cream, and cilantro at the table to top it with.
***Zucchini Pasta with Grilled Fish***
Salt
1 pound spaghetti
1 cup extra virgin olive oil (EVOO), plus more for drizzling
6 cloves garlic, grated or finely chopped
1/3 cup finely chopped flat leaf parsley leaves (a generous handful)
1/3 cup finely chopped fresh mint leaves (a generous handful)
1 1/2 pounds small zucchini, sliced 1/2 inch thick
Pepper
1 cup grated Parmigiano Reggiano cheese
4 large fillets red snapper
4 cups baby arugula or baby spinach leaves
2 lemons, one half left whole for squeezing, one half cut into wedges
PreparationPre-heat a grill or grill pan to medium-high. Bring a large pot of water to a boil, salt it, add the spaghetti and cook until al dente. Drain, reserving 1 cup pasta cooking water.
While the pasta is working, in a bowl, combine 1 cup EVOO, the garlic, parsley and mint. Spoon about one-third of the herb dressing into a large skillet and heat over medium-high heat. Add the zucchini, season with salt and pepper and cook until softened, 8-10 minutes. Add the reserved pasta cooking water and the pasta; toss. Sprinkle in the cheese and toss. Keep warm.
Meanwhile, score the fish skin with a sharp knife in a crosshatch pattern. Season with salt and pepper; drizzle EVOO on both sides to coat. Grill the fish for 3 minutes on each side.
Divide the fish and arugula among plates. Squeeze the half lemon on top. Season the remaining herb dressing with salt and pepper; drizzle over the fish and greens. Serve with the pasta and lemon wedges.
* Your diet should include plenty of fresh vegetables, fruits, whole grains, and lean meats. Some good choices are chicken breast, turkey breast, fish and shell fish, lean beef (sirloin, flank steak, london broil), and pork tenderloin. Always choose whole wheat or whole grain pasta and brown rice over white. use minimal amounts of fat, such as oil and butter when cooking.Healthy Food Recipes? ?

and one recipe....
Corned Beef and Cabbage with Red Potatoes
Ingredients:
1 pound lean beef round
1/8 tsp table salt, or to taste
1/8 tsp black pepper, or to taste
1 Tbsp yellow mustard seed
1/2 tsp ground cinnamon
1/2 tsp ground ginger
1/2 tsp ground allspice
1/2 tsp black pepper
1/2 tsp coriander seed(s)
1/2 tsp ground cloves
2 piece bay leaf
8 small uncooked red potato(es), cut into 2-inch pieces
16 baby carrot(s)
1 medium head green cabbage, coarsely shredded
Instructions:
Coat beef all over with salt and pepper and place in a large stockpot; pour enough water over to cover. Add seasonings and bay leaves, stir to coat meat and set pot over high heat. Bring to a boil. Reduce heat to medium-low, cover and simmer 40 minutes.
Add potatoes, carrots and cabbage and return to a boil. Increase heat to medium, partially cover pot and boil, until vegetables and beef are fork-tender, about 10 minutes. Drain water from meat and vegetables, reserving 1 cup of liquid; discard bay leaves.
Slice meat crosswise into thin slices and serve with vegetables. Pour some reserved cooking liquid over each serving. Yields about 3 ounces of meat, 1 1/2 cups of vegetables and 1/4 cup of cooking liquid per serving.
Chef Tips
We renovated Corned Beef and Cabbage by:
Using lean beef round instead of fattier cuts of meat such as corned beef.
Seasoning the beef to add flavor and help tenderize it (leaner cuts of meat need extra tenderizing since they are missing the natural tenderizer of fat).
Adding extra vegetables for a nutrient and fiber boost.
I recommend Ann Louise Gittleman's books about nutrition. She not only tells you what's good to eat but does an excellent job of explaining why. She includes some recipes, but I just experiment with tastes in my kitchen. Since I love salads and hate cooking, I've come up with several dozen ways to make a tasty, filling salad based on what I've learned about foods from Gittleman's books.
Try her website for more info or go to a bookstore to browse her books. I've tried other books, but hers were the easiest, quickest reads with the most information packed inside.

Does anyone know a healthy fish soul food recipe?
I am looking for a healthy, low fat, soul food recipe for fish.Does anyone know a healthy fish soul food recipe?
There are numerous ways to reduce the cholesterol, fat, sodium and sugar in your favorite recipes. The secret to reworking your old recipe into a new healthier recipe is substitution of ingredients and a change in your cooking methods. Use the following simple and easy cooking methods and substitutions to make healthier adaptations of your favorite soul food meals.
When a recipe calls for dairy products choose a low-fat, reduced fat or non-fat version. For instance instead of whole milk opt for 1% or 2% milk.
Remove or reduce salt from your recipes. Most foods actually require little to no salt, so give your food a taste test to determine if salt is needed. Salt should be substituted with herbs, lemon or lime juice and spices.
Use fresh fruit, fresh vegetables and fresh meats in your recipe, because canned products are high in sodium. If you must use canned products choose the healthier reduced sodium or sodium free versions.
Try a different cooking method when you cook up your next chicken or pork chop dinner. Baked, broiled, roasted or grilled meats are a much healthier alternative to pan and deep fried foods that contain too much fat and cholesterol.
Use lean cuts of meat and remove any visible fat from you meat before cooking. Also, by removing the skin from poultry before cooking you can eliminate fat and cholesterol.
If you must fry your meat and vegetables, avoid cooking in lard and oils high in saturated fat. Substitute with a vegetable oil that's low in saturated fats and high in healthy fats.
Cut back on the amount of meat in your recipes and add more vegetable and whole grain products. Use ground turkey when the recipe calls for ground beef. If you have not substituted turkey for beef in your chili or meatloaf recipes, you're missing out on a great tasting low fat meal.
Now back to the more to follow subject. The key to preparing healthy soul food recipes is not to go cold turkey all at once. You have to ease your way into the process and only make small changes until you are comfortable with the taste of the newly prepared food.Does anyone know a healthy fish soul food recipe?
I found so many options that I think you should see them all.

go to whfoods.comAny good HEALTHY recipes. I usually only get certain grocerys otherwise my food goes to waste...?
Here are a couple of ideas:
Inside of foil, make a layer of chopped onions, parsley, and celery with a nice piece of salmon over the top. Sprinkle it with dill spice and the juice from a lemon slice. Bake this inside the foil until it is thoroughly cooked.
This will stay nice and moist and taste delicious!
Also, for the ground turkey, you can make a turkey ';burger'; with the wheat bread, sprouts, avacado, and mayo or mustard.
You may also want to try making a big soup or stew - try adding a couple of extra vegetables (maybe onions, celery, carrots) to your broccoli and use chicken or beef broth. You can add salmon or chicken or any meat of your choice. You can use tomatoes and garlic if you like. When you let this cook for a long time, it can be really delicious, and you can keep some in the fridge for the next day, too.
When I find that I have leftovers in the fridge that I hate to throw out - I take it and make a stew or a soup out of it. And sometimes it ends up to be such a mishmash I call it ';stoup'; !!!

Show: 30 Minute Meals
Episode: Bun-less Burgers
8 slices applewood or other thick, center-cut bacon, from the meat case of market
1 1/2 pounds ground beef sirloin
Worcestershire sauce, for brushing
Olive oil, for drizzling
Grill seasoning (recommended: Montreal Seasoning by McCormick) or coarse salt and black pepper
2 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil, 2 turns of the pan in a slow stream
1 clove crushed garlic

3 or 4 sprigs fresh sage
Salt and pepper
1/4 cup dry cooking sherry
8 ounces fontina or Swiss cheese, thinly sliced
Grainy, stone ground prepared mustard, for passing at the table
Let meat rest to take the chill from the refrigerator.
Preheat 2 nonstick skillets over medium high to high heat.
Place the meat in a bowl and score it into 4 equal sections and form the meat into patties. Season each patty with grill seasoning. Pour a few tablespoons of Worcestershire sauce into a small dish and using a pastry brush, lightly baste the burgers with sauce. Drizzle a touch of oil into the 1 hot skillet and arrange the burgers. Do not move the meat for 2 minutes. Turn and sear the reverse side to caramelize the meat. Lower the heat slightly and cook 5 minutes longer on each side.
Place bacon slices in the other skillet and cook for 3 minutes on each side, until crisp. Drain fat and reserve bacon. Return the skillet to the stove top. Add 2 tablespoons oil, the garlic and mushrooms to the pan. Thinly slice sage leaves, then add to the mushrooms and season with salt and pepper. Saute the garlic and mushrooms 5 minutes until just tender. Deglaze the pan with dry sherry and scrape up the pan drippings.
Pile the mushrooms on top of burgers, then top with bacon and cheese and cover with lid or foil to melt cheese. Transfer burgers to dinner plates. Pass grainy mustard at the table.
