Recipe By     :The Natural Foods Sweet-Tooth Cookbook
Serving Size  : 10    Preparation Time :0:00
Categories    : Volume 6-01 Jan. 2003

  Amount  Measure       Ingredient -- Preparation Method
--------  ------------  --------------------------------
  3             pounds  parsnips -- (1.5 kg)
  2        tablespoons  sesame oil -- (30 mL)
  1           teaspoon  sea salt -- (5 mL)
  4               cups  apple juice -- (1 L)
  1                     vanilla beans
                        or 1 teaspoon/5 mL vanilla extract
  1                     lemon -- rind and juice
  1 1/2           cups  couscous -- (375 mL)
     1/4           cup  nut butter -- (50 mL)

Hallie's note: That's right - there isn't a banana in the mix!

Author's note: Parsnips become incredibly sweet when cooked a long
time and in this recipe they resemble bananas in taste and texture.

Scrub parsnips in cold water and slice into thin rounds.
Heat oil in a pressure cooker or large skillet and sauté parsnips
for 10 minutes. Add salt and 1 cup (250 mL) of the apple juice.
Cover and cook for 45 minutes.

If pressure cooking, cook under medium pressure for 20 minutes.
Puree parsnips.

Preheat oven to 375F (190C).

Add the remaining apple juice to the pureed parsnips and simmer in a
covered pan with the vanilla bean for 10 minutes. Remove the vanilla 
bean.

Grate the lemon rind and add to the parsnip mixture along with the
lemon juice. Mix in the couscous and nut butter. Transfer to an oiled 
casserole.

Bake for 1 hour.

Variations - Add 1/2 teaspoon (2 mL) nutmeg and 1/2 cup (125 mL)
chopped nuts to the batter.

Makes 8 to 10 servings.

Drop asparagus in boiling water very briefly, set aside.

In another large pan of boiling water, cook pasta until al dente.

hot pepper, grated nutmeg and the gorgonzola broken into small lumps.
Cook until the cheese just melts, take off the heat and add the
tarragon with perhaps a little more black pepper.

Drain the pasta and toss into the sauce.

  2               cups  flour
  2           teaspoon  baking powder
     1/2           cup  sugar
     1/2      teaspoon  salt
     1/4           cup  butter -- cold cubes

Sift all flour, baking powder, sugar, and salt into large bowl. Then
cut cold butter into cubes and mix into the dry ingredients with your

time and mix them in thoroughly. Then add cream and chocolate chips

Line baking sheet with parchment paper or spray with cooking spray to
make sure the scones will not stick. Form the dough into shapes like
triangles or squares. You can shape dough into large disc and pat it
out to about 1/2 thick and score it into 6 or 8 pieces.

Egg wash over scones and bake at 375F for about 35 minutes or until
golden brown and baked through. Remove scones from the oven and let
cool. When cool, cut where you scored it serve and enjoy.

               Potato Patties with Garlic and Herbs - Vegan

Recipe By     :Vegetarian Times, 01-MAR-02 p. 38
Serving Size  : 8     Preparation Time :0:00
Categories    : Volume 6-01 Jan. 2003

  Amount  Measure       Ingredient -- Preparation Method
--------  ------------  --------------------------------
  3              small  russet potatoes -- scrubbed
                        [small  to medium]
  1         tablespoon  grated onion -- (1 to 2)
  1                     garlic clove -- minced
     1/2      teaspoon  salt -- plus
                        more to taste
  1           teaspoon  fresh thyme
                        or 1/2 teaspoon dried
     1/4      teaspoon  celery seed
                        or dried oregano
                        Freshly ground black pepper -- to taste
                        Vegetable oil -- for frying

1. Place steamer basket in large saucepan with about 2 inches water.
Place potatoes in steamer basket, cover and bring to a boil. Steam
potatoes, covered, until tender, about 20 minutes. (Potatoes can be
just slightly firm at center.) Cool thoroughly. Then put potatoes in
plastic bag and refrigerate several hours or overnight.

2. Using a box grater, grate potatoes, removing any large chunks of
skin; place potatoes in large mixing bowl. Add salt and other
seasonings, tossing mixture lightly with your hands to mix. Heat 
about 1 1/2 tablespoons oil in large skillet; cast iron works best 
but, if you’re adding Parmesan cheese, use a nonstick skillet.

3. Using about 1/2 cup grated potatoes each, form 3 or 4 patties;
place in skillet, leaving enough room between them to flip easily.
Press patties firmly with spatula to shape. Cook over medium heat
until nicely browned, flipping them once, 2 to 3 minutes per side.
Repeat with remaining mixture, adding more oil as necessary. Place
cooked patties in warm oven while making remaining patties.

Yield : "8 patties"

NOTES : This is the way I learned to make potato patties years ago,
and I like them so much I never do it any other way. You start by
steaming whole russet potatoes, which are cooled and refrigerated
so they’re easy to handle. The potatoes are peeled and grated, then
mixed with whatever herbs, seasonings and extras you like. Although
this version is suitable for vegans, I often add a little freshly
grated Parmesan cheese to potatoes and fry them in butter instead
of oil. Either way, they’re delicious—great for breakfast or dinner.
