Menu for January 27

Hello there,
We have some nice choices for you this week. Some are favorites and there are some new items. You can check it all out below.

We have the GREEK PASTA SALAD for you again this week. This is fusilli with peppers, red onion, cucumber, tomatoes, black olives and Feta cheese with our own Greek dressing. We also have it with CHICKEN.

Our CURRIED WILD RICE & SWEET POTATO RISOTTO isn't really like traditional risotto. This meal has a mix of Thai Red rice as well as the wild rice, there is also some onions & a few currants and apricots so this meal is more sweet that spicy.

We use whole wheat tortillas for the MUSHROOM & BLACK BEAN BURRITOS which also have some onions, peppers and carrots. It is garnished with some zesty salsa.

I don't think we've made the LEMON-CAPER CAPPELLINI before. In case you are wondering, capers are small unripened flower buds from a Mediterranean bush which are dried and then marinated in a brine. They are a bit salty and sour. The sauce for this pasta has fresh lemon juice and zest, a bit of honey, dill and the capers. You can have this with Grilled Chicken or some toasted almonds.

If you like tahini, this SESAME LO MEIN & TOFU is for you. The marinated tofu is stir-fried with fresh veggies and served with the tahini sauce on either MILLET or RICE NOODLES.

We thought it was time for a vegan lasagna so how about VEGAN TOFU & ARTICHOKE LASAGNA. We use whole wheat noodles, some artichokes and black olives, our own tomato sauce and substitute a tofu filling instead of the cottage cheese. We topped this with a tasty cashew mix.

It feels like a good week for comfort food in the form of ROAST CHICKEN DINNER WITH POTATOES & GRAVY. You get some white and dark meat, some wild rice stuffing, veggies, potatoes & gravy and it is all gluten-free How does that sound to you?

Here is another new dish, the MOROCCAN BEEF & SWEET POTATO STEW is sirloin tip strips, sweet potatoes, tomatoes, onions & those yummy Moroccan seasonings slow cooked and served with COUSCOUS or RICE.

Your mouth will be watering when you hear that we have ANN'S MAPLE CHICKEN on this week's menu. The chicken is cooked with some mushrooms and peppers in a delicious creamy maple sauce. Have this with either JASMINE RICE or PENNE.

Here is more comfort food... the SALISBURY STEAK WITH MASHED POTATOES AND GRAVY is patties made from lean ground beef and some seasonings, slow cooked in a tasty onion gravy and served with vegetables and mashed potatoes.

That is all for now.....

Menu for Jan 20

Greetings!
What a cold snap eh? I hope you were warm and cosy.
We are keeping warm by the stove cooking up yummy food for you. Read all about it below.....

We had HAIDA home for Christmas and she teased us with some of her special TABOULI SALAD. I hope I can do it justice. This salad has whole wheat bulgur, lots of parsley, chickpeas, grated carrots and a lemon-olive oil dressing.

It seems like a good time to make some heart-warming CHILI . We're going to make 2 types, the VEGETARIAN CHILI has some millet in it for some extra protein and the BEEF & VEGETABLE CHILI for the meat lovers. Both get lots of vegetables and beans and great flavor.

Here is some comfort food to try...the TOFU SHEPERDESS PIE. This is marinated tofu and lots of Farmer's Market vegetables cooked in a savory herb sauce, topped with a combination of regular and sweet potatoes.

Now here is a neat pasta idea....the LIGURIAN BREAD & GARLIC PENNE looks awesome! The penne is tossed with a sauce using olive oil, red wine vinegar & roasted garlic and it is thickened with breadcrumbs. We garnished this with fresh tomatoes & Parmesan Cheese. We also have this with some GRILLED CHICKEN.

I guess it is high time for this favorite....the SPICY THAI NOODLES WITH TOFU & PEANUT SAUCE. We have rice noodles, vegetables, & marinated tofu in a awesome peanut sauce. We also have this meal with CHICKEN if you like.

Here is your chance for some yummy comfort food but way lighter in calories than Mom's. For our CHICKEN & DUMPLINGS we are using both chicken breast and leg meat for this, with lots of yummy veggies in a great sauce topped with lovely light dumplings. You can also have this without dumplings and call it CHICKEN STEW you wish for gluten-free.

The TERIYAKI BEEF is sirloin tip slices stir-fried with lots of vegetables in a slightly sweet Asian sauce served with BROWN RICE or WHEAT NOODLES.

So this BETTER BUTTER CHICKEN is better than the traditional Indian Butter Chicken because we revamped it and made it healthier. But it is still just as tasty and spicy. This meal has some of our home-made yogurt in it and is served on BROWN BASMATI RICE.

Have a great week!

Menu for Jan. 13 2009

Hello There,
I hope you enjoyed the week-end. Check out this week's menu below. We hope you find some nice choices.

The BLACK BEAN & MANGO SALAD is black beans, peppers, corn, green onion & mango in a lime-cilantro dressing.

For all you fans of "PAUL MCCARTNEY'S VEGAN ENCHILADAS"...they are back. For those of you are not fans yet, try something new. This is whole wheat flour tortillas filled with vegetables, spinach and crushed tofu with seasonings. It is topped with vegan sour cream and baked. Those who like it, like it alot.

Our MUSHROOM & LENTIL PATTIES have red & green lentils as well as the mushrooms, onions, flax seed & seasonings. We served this with RICE PILAF.

RASTA PASTA is a nice change with Carribean influence. We use Angel Hair Pasta and the sauce is sweet potatoes, coconut milk and Caribbean spices. We topped it with a colorful mix of vegetables. You may have this meal with GRILLED CHICKEN also.

The EGGPLANT PARMIGIANA is one of my favorites. We bread the eggplant with seasoned wheatgerm and cover it with a mix of Mozza-Feta-Parmesan cheeses. We bake it and serve it with PASTA & our own TOMATO SAUCE.

We use our own sauce for the OVEN BARBECUED CHICKEN. It is baked with Farmer's Market SPUDS & SQUASH.

The SAUCY BEEF & MUSHROOMS is slow-cooked to make it nice and tender and also includes onions and herbs. You may have this with your choice of POTATOES or RICE.

The APRICOT ALMOND CHICKE has some African flavors with some cumin, coriander, turmeric & cinnamon. Would you prefer this with ORGANIC BROWN RICE or ISRAELI COUSCOUS?

The GROUND BEEF & POTATO CURRY has lots of veggies as well as some spice to it. This is served with BROWN RICE.

Take care.... Karin

Menu for Tuesday, Jan 6th Happy New Year!

HAPPY NEW YEAR!
Did you all have a good holiday? I sure did. Lots of good family, food and books and of course snow.

Let's start of the new year with some good healthy choices. Check them out and let us know what you'd like us to drop off to you on Tuesday, or you can pop into Timothy's any day and pick it up.

Our SUSHI RICE SALAD has all the flavors of sushi. We use short grain brown rice and add lots of crunchy vegetables, some nori, pickled ginger, sesame seeds and a dressing of seasoned rice vinegar and wasabi.

CURRIED COCONUT CHICKPEAS also has some caramelized onions and cilantro and a bit of cayenne. It is saucy so it will be very nice on a bed of BROWN BASMATI RICE.

PASTA BROUGHT TO YOU BY THE LETTER "P" is something I tried over the holidays with great success. We use whole wheat spaghetti and toss it with Pesto made with Parsley, Pumpkin seeds, Peppercorns topped with sweet Peppers. As usual you can also have this with some grilled Poultry.

TOFU KOHLAPURI is an Indian dish traditionally made with chicken but tofu is a good substitute. There is lots of great spices in this meal including jalapeno peppers and it has a tomato base. We are serving it on BROWN BASMATI RICE.

MOROCCAN SPINACH & RICE PIE has a brown rice & cheese layer on the bottom, then some spiced tomato sauce, then some spinach sauteed with onions and raisins, and it's all topped with some Mozzarella before we bake it. This is a great meal with interesting flavors.

The OVEN BAKED CORNFLAKE CHICKEN is chicken breasts dipped in some egg white and then into seasoned cornflake crumbs and baked. It is served with oven baked potatoes & sweet potatoes. This meal is gluten-free and dairy-free.

Here is a good way to combine mango & chicken, CURRIED MANGO & CASHEW CHICKEN STIR-FRY. This chicken stir-fry has lots of great flavors with fresh mangoes as well as ginger and some rice vinegar and of course the curry & cashews. We are serving this on JASMINE RICE.

I have this awesome pineapple to use up so how about PINEAPPLE & PEPPER BEEF KABOBS. This is marinate beef, pineapple and sweet peppers on a skewer and cooked on the grill. It comes with RICE or POTATOES.

SASSY SAUSAGE is tri-colored rotini with our tomato sauce and some Italian Sausage.

The SAVOURY SHEPHERD'S PIE is lean ground beef with gravy, a nice mix of vegetables and it is topped with mashed potatoes. This meal is gluten-free.

Have a great week! See you at the Market on Saturday.
