Bean Salad

Recipe By : Don Calkins
Serving Size : 12 Preparation Time :0:00
Categories : Volume 13-03 Mar 2010

Amount Measure Ingredient -- Preparation Method
-------- ------------ --------------------------------
1 can black beans, cooked
1 can kidney beans, cooked
1 can green beans, canned
1 can yellow wax beans
1 cup diced onion
**Dressing**
1 teaspoon Italian seasoning
1/4 cup cider vinegar
1/4 cup sugar
3 tablespoons canola oil
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/8 teaspoon pepper
1 dash jalapeno powder

Mix dressing ingredients together, pour over beans and onions, mix
thoroughly and let set for a couple hours to meld.

If I have them on hand, I'll also add 1/4 to 1/3 cup each of diced celery,
diced green pepper and/or shredded carrots.

I make my own jalapeno powder. I dry whole jalapenos till crisp, then grind
in my flour mill (and wash it carefully after.)

Jalapenos, black pepper and the various other "hot" spices activate
slightly different areas of the taste buds on the tongue. Using small
amounts of several of them together gives a "broader" flavor without
necessarily being any hotter.

While I most commonly use canola oil and cider vinegar, I like olive oil
and red wine vinegar almost as well.

Blackened Chicken

Recipe By :
Serving Size : 4 Preparation Time :0:00
Categories : Volume 13-03 Mar 2010

Amount Measure Ingredient -- Preparation Method
-------- ------------ --------------------------------
4 chicken breasts or legs
1 teaspoon seasoned salt
1/2 teaspoon garlic salt
2 teaspoons garlic powder
2 teaspoons onion powder
1 teaspoon black, white and cayenne pepper
1/2 teaspoon poultry seasoning
1/2 teaspoon ground sage
1/2 teaspoon oregano
1 teaspoon Creole seasoning
1 teaspoon paprika

1) Mix seasoning ingredients until well blended using a food processor, if
available.

2) Rub the seasoning into the chicken (If you like more or less spicy, you
can add or leave out spice; I tend to leave out the cayenne pepper; my
choice) and place on buttered broiling pan if using oven or on buttered
foil if grilling. (We are fortunate in having an electric grill with non-
stick surface and skip the foil and the butter.)

3)Set oven control to broil. Broil with top 10-12 inches from heat for 8-11
minutes or until dark brown. If grilling, please use directions for your
grill instructing on how to grill chicken. Serve with hot rolls and a mixed
salad. Yummy!

Braised Lamb Shanks

Recipe By : Sue Prescott
Serving Size : 4 Preparation Time :0:00
Categories : Volume 13-03 Mar 2010

Amount Measure Ingredient -- Preparation Method
-------- ------------ --------------------------------
2 tablespoons olive oil -- or more as needed
1/2 cup flour
Cajun seasoning -- to taste
or just use salt and pepper
4 lamb shanks -- about 8 ounces each
2 cups chopped onions
1 cup carrots -- in medium dice
1 cup celery -- in medium dice
2 tablespoons minced garlic
3 bay leaves
2 tablespoons fresh thyme -- chopped
1 cup red wine
2 tablespoons red wine vinegar
1 quart low sodium beef broth
1 quart low sodium chicken broth
1/4 cup parsley -- chopped

In a large stock pot or braising pot, add the olive oil.

Mix the seasoning and flour. Dredge the lamb shanks in the seasoned flour,
coating each side completely.

When the oil is hot, sear the shanks for 2 to 3 minutes on each side or
until very brown on all sides. Remove the shanks and set aside.

Add the onions to the pan and sauté for 2 minutes. Add the celery and
carrots and continue to sauté for 1 minute. Season with salt and pepper.
Stir in the garlic, bay leaves, and thyme. Cook for 1 minute.

Deglaze the pan with the red wine, scraping the bottom and sides to loosen
the browned particles. Add the vinegar and broth. Bring the liquid up to a
boil and reduce to a simmer. Add the lamb shanks and place, uncovered, in
the oven. Cook 2 hours. After the first hour, check it every so often to
make sure the liquid is at least halfway up the meat.

Remove the meat to a platter and cover with foil to keep warm. Skim off any
fat you can from the sauce. If you want a thicker gravy or sauce, whisk
some flour or cornstarch with water and mix in to sauce over a medium heat.

Serve over buttered egg noodles or mashed potatoes (my favorite). Try some
blue cheese mashed potatoes.

NOTES: I changed a recipe I found online. Among other things, I added some 
red wine vinegar to cut the fattiness of the lamb; you can omit it if you 
like. Many recipes like this call for you to strain the vegetables out of 
the sauce or mash them. I leave them in, whole. If you make this the day 
before serving, you can skim the fat off before reheating to serve. Of 
course, that requires planning ahead.
