| Sprouted Bean & Lentil Salad - Healthy & Tasty | | 2008-06-29 13:07:19 | | Summers bring with them the cravings for ice-creams and coolers, but they also mean spending more time at the beach, which in turn means getting into shape as soon as you can! Joining the "eat healthy" bandwagon, I try to eat salads for dinner at least once or twice a week. And one of my favorite and filling salad recipes is the Sprouted Lentil & Chickpea Salad. A healthy diet should include a mix of essential nutrients, a primary one being Proteins. And for vegetarians, beans, legumes and...

| Swap Your Ketchup for Hot, Tasty Salsa | | 2008-04-29 02:19:00 | | Whenever we talk about salsa, it's quite easy for us to get lost in a vision of a world filled with colorful, spicy and deliciously flavored dishes, and forget that the very "salsa" word actually means "sauce" - and not just any sauce, but a specific combination of chopped tomatoes, onions, chilies and cilantro, characteristic of Mexican cuisine. However, salsa has suffered the fate of many other traditional brands of food and due to its consumer success, it became an umbrella concept that readi | | By: Gadget Bin | | |

| Tasty Nissin Cup Noodles | | 2008-04-24 22:09:00 | | I had this “Nissin Cup Noodles” as my dinner on other night since I was hungry I had decided to put it in the microwave. It is a big one and I just cooked the half of it. I was waiting my husband that time to eat out in the restaurant but then I did not wait him. My cup noodles that I bought in “Marsh Supermarket” here in Indianapolis as the market that I liked most as mostly they have food that I wanted. I forgot how much did I pay for that noodles. It is a good one if mixed with veggies and I had decided to put some cabbage on top and put in the microwave but I did not put a lot of water in it and also I did not mixed the beef flavor as I have a special spices to put in there which is leftover from other noodles that I had. When we will be in grocery again, I will be going to get one that kind of noodles since I loved it a lot! | | By: My Trails In Life | | |

| Craving Asian Tasty Food | | 2008-04-23 14:05:00 | | On Sunday, I told my husband I wanted to eat an Asian food and also vegetables as it is been for a while I did not eat healthy food. For about 4-5 days in row that time we ate mostly fried food and makes me feel fat and not healthy. I decided to urge him to eat in P.F Chang’s Bistro again and he said he was not hungry that time but I insisted him that I really want to eat in there since we do not have enough food in our ref. and besides I do not like cooking in the hotel that we are staying right now.I feel craving to eat veggies and I did order in P.F Chang’s Bistro their appetizer veggie steamed wonton, fried spinach and their semi-fried noodles with mixed veggies and my husband did just order their wonton soup. I felt happy that time since I got the food that I wanted or what I am craving for.*veggie steamed wonton* *semi-crispy noodles with mixed veggies* | | By: My Trails In Life | | |

| Ten Tips to a Tasty Efficient Kitchen | | 2008-04-10 06:26:00 | | Image via WikipediaI for one am sick and tired of notable chefs and cooks selling out and buying into the whole "30 minute meal" phenomenon. I won't mention any names Nigella... Delia... ahem! I cook 98% of my food from scratch and it rarely takes me more than 30 minutes to prepare a meal, usually much less. I am of the persuasion that you should not substitute quality to get something on the table quicker.So instead of bringing you ten ways to save time in the kitchen I am bring you a list of simple changes you can make in your kitchen to ensure fresher, more efficient and better tasting food whilst making the kitchen a more enjoyable place. Ultimately some of them will save you time and money, but taste wise you won't sacrifice a thing!Use fresh herbs. Most recipes require seasoning of some sort and if not, adding some can make quite a difference. Even if you insist on making casseroles with canned soup (and I'm not judging, I made one last week) adding a pinch of fresh chopped | | By: The Humble Housewife | | |

| Spicy and Tasty | | 2008-02-12 10:25:00 | | Spicy and Tasty Spicy and Tasty is actually a creative name in the realm of English names for Chinese restaurants. I'm glad they took a step up from Happy Wok, Double Happiness, and East Seafood Palace. The decor is also a bit less gaudy, except for the ugly plastic chili peppers displayed in an inside window.At the front of the restaurant, all the cold appetizers are on display. They all look amazingly fresh and my mom said that they're all pretty good. She's tried most of them. You don't want to order too many during the same visit though. Most of them share the same marinade of Sichuan chili oil. Their oil is authentic in flavor and extremely aromatic.My mom wanted me to try the Wild Vegetables which had a nice crunch. I enjoyed it but I only wanted a few bites. The portion was just too big. There are a couple if signature Sichuan dishes that you have to try at a Sichuan place.

| Make Your Own Tasty Tee! | | 2008-01-13 23:38:00 | | One of the reasons I like Tasty Tees is because they are not afraid of trying new ideas and experimenting/having fan with their business plan. First they did this Radiohead t-shirt that you could name the price you wanted to pay for it. Now they strike a again with "Make Your Own Tasty Tee" offers, where you mail them one t-shirt, select one of the seven designs available and they will print it and mail it back to you for seven bucks. I don't know if the 7-dollar offer will compensate you for going into the trouble of sending a t-shirt yourself but it sure is an interesting way of shirt-making and a fun one. Not to mention that the 2007 designs are kick ass and will never be printed again!Offer expires January 31st.

| How To Make A Tasty Cheese Fondue | | 2008-01-03 03:54:00 | | How To Make A Tasty Cheese FondueAuthor: Christopher FisherFondue is one of the most delicious and fun ways to eat. A fondue (especially cheese fondue) can be a big hit at a party, a nice choice for a romantic dinner, or a perfect, fun meal with all the kids. It's different, exciting, and most of all delicious!So are you ready to learn how to make a tasty cheese fondue? If so, this article will show you everything you need to know to get started.This article assumes that you already own a fondue pot and forks. If you don't, you might be able to use a Crockpot and bamboo skewers as forks. A fondue set is definitely recommended, and will make your fondue experience much more pleasant.We will be making a Swiss fondue, which is the most popular cheese fondue. And it's a favorite for good reason, the two Swiss cheeses used in this recipe combine to create the perfect flavor and texture for fondue.Cheese Fondue RecipeIngredients- 1/2 pound of finely grated Gruyere cheese- 1/2 pound of finely grated Emmentaler cheese- 1 clove of garlic- 1 cup dry white wine (preferably high quality)- 1 tbsp lemon juice- 3 teaspoons cornstarch- 1 tablespoon kirsch cherry brandy- pepper and nutmegDirections1. Cut the garlic clove in half and use it to rub the inside of a medium saucepan. Add the wine and lemon juice then bring to a simmer over medium heat.2. Mix the finely grated Gruyere and Emmentaler cheese with the cornstarch in a large bowl. Toss it all together. Stir the cheese mixture into the wine one small handful at a time until creamy. Don't stir in a circle, use a zig-zag motion instead. If the fondue is too thick, add more wine. If it's too thin, add more cornstarch. Keep the heat just high enough to melt the cheese or it might start to get a bit stringy. When it reaches the desired texture (creamy) add the kirsch and a bit of pepper and nutmeg.3. Transfer the mixture to the fondue pot and serve as soon as possible with the dipping ingredients.Dipping Ingredients-Cubes of Fr | | By: The Food Expert | | |

| Hot and Tasty Dum Aloo | | 2007-10-31 13:09:59 | | As winter starts setting in, our senses crave for something hot and comforting, and that's exactly what we want our food to be too, right? So what could be better than hot and spicy curry served with parathas or rice?! That was precisely the thought in my mind when I decided to pick up these baby potatoes over at the vegetable market. They were so cute and so inviting I had to buy them and put them to good use. And there is no other way to enjoy these than to make Dum Aloo - a vegetable curry packed with spices and flavor. "Dum" means strength, and that is precisely what's packed in these tiny potatoes that are flavored with spices to the core and are simmered in a rich curry. Here goes my recipe!Ingredients1/2 kg baby potatoes - boiled and peeled3 tbsp lemon juiceFew coriander leaves - choppedgreen spring onion - chopped for garnish4 tbsp cup gheeSalt to taste1 tsp sugar1 tbsp tandoori masala (available in indian stores)1/2 cup water1/2 cup whole milk.oil for shallow frying the pota | | By: Fun and Food | | |

| Coconut Laddoos (or Burfi) - A quick and tasty treat! | | 2007-10-04 19:39:46 | | The season of festivals is in all its glory for Indians, with one celebration after another all lined up till November! So its traditional to make sweets at home, but what about people who just have a sudden urge to cater to their sweet tooth, celebration or not??!! Well, I have a perfect solution! I have enjoyed eating Koprapaak (Coconut Burfi) since I was a child, and now I've found a really simple recipe that works great when you need to make this treat in a jiffy. So here's something to satiate your craving for a dessert, or a perfect "prasad" for all those festival times....Ingredients1 can condensed milk2 cups dessicated coconut2 tsp cardamom powder2 tbsp sugar1/4 cup nuts - chopped (pistachios, almonds, cashews)A few strands of saffron - to decorateMethodKeep a little coconut and a few pistachios aside for garnishing. Mix the condensed milk and the remaining coconut in a bowl. Add the sugar and elaichi powder and stir on a low flame for about 4-5 mins. The milk is already thick, so don't over-heat else it may get burnt. Remove from flame, then add the chopped nuts and set aside till the mixture has cooled down enough to handle with your hands.Shape into small laddoos(round balls). Roll each laddoo in a little dessicated coconut. Garnish each with a slit of pistachio and saffron. Alternately, you can spread the mixture after removing from flame into a slightly greased plate or thali which has edges. Then use a knife to cut into squares or diamonds if you want to make Burfis instead of laddoos.Serve as a delicious treat or Store in airtight jars. This was quick, right? and without compromising your urge for a sweet dessert!!Tip: You can dissolve saffron (kesar) in 1 tsp warm water and add it to the mixture while heating to make yellow-colored Saffron Coconut burfi or laddoos. I just love the pure white coconut color with a little green/orange garnish at the top!:)Please visit the actual blogsite at http://funnfud.blogspot.com

I think we are going to take him up on that offer. I am going to create a new section in the sidebar where we will update our running totals for the month a couple of times a week. Kind of like the crab totals on Deadliest Catch.
I don’t want to limit this month long contest of fun to only the five of us that write here on Tasty Booze. If you are a loyal reader and would like to have your tally included send an email to tastybooze [at] gmail [dot] com with the following information.
1. Your name, location and screen name if don’t want your real name posted.
2. A brief statement about yourself that will be posted on Tasty Booze.
3. Your estimate of the number of beers you will crush in June.
Basic Rules:
1. This is based on the honor system. Don’t be a jackass.
2. Any and all beers count. This isn’t limited to just boggs | | By: Where the Boggs are Always Cold | | |
