Amish Macaroni Potato Salad THM-S

/ glenda1969 / Leave a comment

Amish Macaroni Potato salad has always been a favorite with our family and for carry-in dish dinners. I have often wished for a healthier version (without potatoes) and after numerous attempts  I have come up with this recipe using spaghetti squash. Our family loves it and the serving dish comes back to the kitchen completely empty.  Most people are surprised what is used to replace the potatoes but comment on how tasty it really is.

Amish Macaroni Potato Salad  THM-S

  • 1 box  Dreamfield Elbows 
  • 4 cups cooked spaghetti squash
  • 2 cups finely diced celery
  • 1 cup shredded carrots
  • 1/2 cup finely diced onion
  • 6 hard boiled eggs, chopped

Dressing:

Cook pasta following instructions on box. Drain and rinse well. Chop spaghetti squash so the strands are no longer than 3/4 inch. Toss together elbows, spaghetti squash, celery, carrots, onion, and eggs. Combine mayo, salt, apple cider vinegar, mustard, Gentle Sweet, and garlic powder together. Pour over salad and stir lightly. Refrigerate for 2-4 hours for flavors to combine. 12-14 servings.

**I often cook the spaghetti squash in the microwave, each half for 8 minutes.

Kefir Olive Garden Salad Dressing THM-S

/ glenda1969 / Leave a comment

Olive Garden Salad is an all time favorite in our family and what is not to like about crunchy sprouted bread croutons,  peperoncino peppers, grape tomatoes, red onions, and this dressing tossed with romaine and iceberg lettuce . This recipe uses double fermented Kefir as a base which gives you healthy probiotics. I used low-fat kefir which does lighten the calorie load just a bit but still give a flavorful dressing. Romano Cheese gives the best flavor but Parmesan cheese can be used as a substitute.

Combine all ingredient in blender. Blend until smooth. Refrigerate 4 hours for flavors to combine. Dressing will thicken as it sets. A serving is 2 tablespoons. 18 servings

Crust-less Pumpkin Cheesecake Pie THM-S

/ glenda1969 / Leave a comment

Browsing through a magazine this past week I saw a recipe for Pumpkin Cheesecake Pie but off course it was loaded with sugar. I decide to try a sugar-free one and for the lack of time made it without a crust. It was very well received by the taste-testers in my family and now I have a new favorite for the fall holidays. In this recipe I use my home canned pumpkin but bought canned pumpkin works just as well or you can substitute well-drained cooked butternut squash.

Crust-less Pumpkin Cheesecake Pie  THM-S

Cheesecake layer:

Pumpkin Layer:

  • 1 1/4 cups pumpkin
  • 1/2 cup heavy cream
  • 1/2 cup almond milk
  • 1/3 cup Greek Yogurt
  • 3 tablespoons THM Gentle Sweet or Brown Sugar Sweetener*
  • 2 large eggs, room temperature
  • 2 teaspoons cinnamon
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 1/2 teaspoon vanilla

Walnut Streusel Topping:

Preheat oven to 350 degrees F.  Grease the bottom of a 9 inch glass pie pan. Set aside. In a mixer bowl whip together cream cheese and sweetener until smooth. Add egg, vanilla, and salt. Mix until just combined. Spread evenly on the bottom of the pie pan. Set aside. Combine pumpkin layer ingredients in blender jar or in a bowl. Blend until smooth. Carefully pour over cream cheese mixture. For streusel topping combine baking blend, Brown Sugar Sweetener, and walnuts together. Mix in cold butter until just combined. Sprinkle over the pumpkin layer. Cover the pie plate with foil–folding up the center so it doesn’t touch the filling. Place in over for 25 minutes. Remove foil and bake 15-20 minutes longer or until center of the pie is just so set. Remove from oven and cool for 8 hours or until completely set. Serves 8

* I prefer using Brown Sugar Sweetener for the added flavor it gives.

Southwestern Chicken and Bean Soup THM-E

/ glenda1969 / 2 Comments

Stockpots full of hearty soups are so delicious and filling on busy fall/winter days. This Southwestern Chicken and Bean soup has become a family favorite. I often serve it with cornbread or Multi-grain Sourdough bread. Over the winter months I pressure can black beans to use in this soup or for rice and beans. Sweet corn give just the right amount of sweetness that go so well with the spiciness. You can adjust the seasoning to suit your taste and even add a diced Jalapeno or two if you like more heat. I will freeze individual portions of this soup for school lunches or for a quick meal when I am home by myself.

Southwestern Chicken and Bean Soup THM-E

Combine all ingredients in 8-quart kettle. Simmer for 30 minutes. Serves 12-14.

*This is a very quick tasty dish. For growing children serve with full fat sour-cream, baked corn chips and shredded cheddar cheese for a THM-Crossover.

*You can omit the chicken for a meatless more economical dish.

Apple Butter THM-E

/ glenda1969 / 4 Comments

Fall has arrived and the lovely aroma of cinnamon fills the air as apples and pumpkins are turned into delicious fall treats. Years ago, making Apple Butter was an all day affair, as it was made in large copper kettles over an open wood fire. It had to be stirred continually with large wooden paddles so it wouldn’t scorch.  The Apple Butter was slowly cooked until the point where the sugar caramelized giving it a dark rich color and great flavor.  Today, crock-pots have replaced the copper kettle and the sweet cinnamon aroma fills our kitchen.

Apple Butter THM-E

Place apples and water into a a kettle over medium heat.  Cook for 10 minutes, stirring often. Remove from heat. Cool slightly. In a crock-pot, add cooked apples, cinnamon, vanilla, salt, and sweetener. Put lid on–keeping it tilted so steam can escape. Cook on high for 6-8 hours. The time may vary depending on how juicy you apples were. Fill 8 ounce jars with hot apple butter. Add lids and rings. Place  jars in a hot water bath canner. Cover jars completely with water. Bring to a boil and process for 10 minutes. Remove jars from canner and allow to cool. 4 pints

*I used a mix of Gala, Granny Smith, and Fuji Apples.

*adjust the sweetener as needed.

Pumpkins, gourds, squash, shocks, hay bales, and Indian corn bring lots of color to the local road side stands in our area. Crisp, cool mornings call for steaming cups of coffee and a hearty breakfast. Pumpkin pancakes are a delightful twist to an old-time favorite breakfast staple.

Old Fashioned Apple Dumplings THM-XO

/ glenda1969 / Leave a comment

Old Fashioned Apple Dumplings have been a family favorite for years. These are seasonal item you will find in many Amish/Mennonite bakeries and roadside stands in the fall.  They can be eaten warm with a bit of cream which is my favorite or with ice cream like some of my family prefer.  This recipe is a healthier version of an old traditional comfort food made by our grandmothers.

Old Fashioned Apple Dumplings THM-XO

  • 6 apples, cored and peeled, I used Granny Smith Apples

Pastry:

Sauce:

Pastry: In a mixer bowl combine flours, baking powder, and salt together. Cut in shortening until pea size. Add cream and almond milk. Mix lightly until just moistened and combined. Divide dough in half. Roll each half in a rectangle shape. Cut in 3 pieces. Press one dough piece around each apple. Place apples in individual 6 baking dishes or in a 9 x 13 baking pan (6 dumplings in the pan). Preheat oven to 350 degrees F. Sauce:  Combine water, butter, cinnamon, vanilla,  sweetener, and molasses in a saucepan. Bring to a boil and whisk in glucomannan. Remove from heat. Pour half of the sauce over the apples. Place pan of dumplings in the oven. Bake for 20 minutes, pour remaining sauce over apples. Cover with foil. Bake for an additional 25 minutes. Remove from oven.  Spoon some of the sauce in pan over the dumplings. Cool. 6 servings.

*THM Gentle Sweet can be used instead of the Brown Sugar Sweetener. Use the same amount AND add a drop or two of Natural Burst Maple Flavoring.

Fried Apples with Greek Yogurt THM-E

/ glenda1969 / Leave a comment

Crisp,  juicy apples in shades of green, yellow, and red are being picked in orchards these late summer days. Their flavors vary from tart to honey sweet. In our area freshly picked apples begin to appear at produce markets in late July and continue being picked until late October.  Fried apples are so easy to make and the Brown Sugar Sweetener caramelizes on them for a melt-in-your-mouth goodness. I was gifted Granny Smith Apples and the combination of tart/caramelized is so appealing.

Melt butter in a skillet over medium heat. Add sliced apples.

Cover and reduce heat to low. Fry for 3-4 minutes. Turn apples. Sprinkle with sweetener, cinnamon, and salt. Cover.  Fry 2 minutes or until desired tenderness. Set aside.

Mix Greek yogurt with collagen. Spoon into  two  dessert bowls. Top with apples. Serves 2.

*Additional sweetener can be added to the yogurt if preferred. The sweetness from the apples was enough for me.
