Repeat until all chicken is browned, adding 1 to 2 Tablespoons additional butter, if needed. Transfer chicken to a 13x9 inch baking pan. 4.

If you cut the breast into strips or cubes first, it will cook more quickly and evenly in the frying pan. Serving it with veggies on rice or pasta, or mixed in a salad is pretty good. If you put something on it, be careful what you use. It depends on what type of diet you are on, though. Some diets don't approve of rice or pasta.
I use thigh fillets for this recipe. 4 chicken thigh fillets cut into half. Remove all visible fat. In a large pan add 1 tablespoon of olive oil and cook chicken in batches until brown. Pour off any excess fat. Add 1/2 cup of chicken stock and bring to boil. Reduce the heat and simmer for about 30 minutes until chicken is fully cooked. Add 1/2 of white wine and the same balsamic vinegar. Boil on high for a few minutes or until liquid thickens a bit. Season with salt and pepper. Serve on a bed af mashed sweet potato and sauted baby spinach with garlic. Drizzle the sauce all over. A winner everytime. Enjoy
Here's how I like to cook it.





4 boneless chicken breasts


1 large onion


1/2 large bell pepper


1 clove of garlic diced


2 T creole seasoning


1 can chicken broth


1 t dried parsley


1/4 teaspoon dried sweet basil


2 T olive oil





Chop the onion and bellpepper. Cut the chicken into chunks, season well with the creole seasoning. Heat the olive oil in a large pot. ( I like to use cast iron, but anything will work. ) Saute the onions and bell pepper in the olive oil till tender over medium high heat. Onions will appear transparent. Add the seasoned chicken. Brown the chicken on all sides. Once the chicken is browned, add the chicken broth, parsley, basil, and garlic. Return to a boil, turn heat to low, cover and simmer for 30 to 40 mins. You can use a tablespoon of cornstarch at the end to thicken the gravy. Mix the cornstarch in a small amount of water separately and stir into the chicken. let it boil for a min or two to allow gravy to thicken.





Serve over rice.





Enjoy!

Raw food recipes, and looking for healthy raw porridge recipes?

any ideas?





All I have tried so far is porridge soaked in a bit of milk and sugar, want something healthier.


What raw websites do you use.Raw food recipes, and looking for healthy raw porridge recipes?
This is my favourite breakfast using raw oats:





Apple muesli





Make a batch of wheat-free muesli wth:


500g oats


150g raisins


100g mixed raw nuts or pumpkin and sunflower seeds, or a combination


Quarter teaspoon of cinnamon.





At breakfast time, put one-third of a cup of the muesli into a large cereal bowl with two-thirds of a cup of sweetened soya milk (it must be soya for best taste - not dairy. I don't like soya milk in most things, but in this it's fantastic).


Add a grated apple (gala is my favourite) and half a tablespoon of lemon juice (this brings out the flavour nicely).


Mix it up. You can add a handful of cut up strawberries or banana if you like, but that's optional.


Bon appetit!





This is utterly delicious, and so good for you, too.Raw food recipes, and looking for healthy raw porridge recipes?
To the oats add any fruit, dried or fresh, nuts and seeds of your choice, sweeten to taste with honey or sugar, add yoghurt and/or milk to make your own muesli.
For my breakfast I make a mix of 500g oats, 250g of barley flakes, rye flakes and oatmeal then add 250g of raisins sultanas and dried apricots(chopped). You can vary the additions by adding nuts, seeds etc to suit your taste. Last lot I bought cost 拢6.30 from Holland %26amp; Barretts and will last about 6 weeks. I soak my daily portion in skimmed milk in the fridge overnight so it is very low fat.

What are some healthy cupcake/cake recipes for babies 1st birthday?

i really want to find something easy to make for my daughter. She will be one on sept 13th. I want something without sugar and a good recipe for frosting also. i cannot decide on if i should make cupcakes or just a cake? Please share your opinions and what you did. thanksWhat are some healthy cupcake/cake recipes for babies 1st birthday?
My opinion is you shouldn't worry about healthy when it comes to birthday cakes. There are 364 other days in the year to be healthy. And no sugar doesn't necessarily mean healthy!What are some healthy cupcake/cake recipes for babies 1st birthday?
you can try a muffin recipe. banana muffins arent bad and im sure kids will like them.


heres a no-sugar banana muffin recipe





- 1 cup mashed bananas


- 1 egg


- 1/2 cup water


- 1/2 cup vegetable oil


- 2 cups flour


- 1 teaspoon baking soda


- 2 1/4 teaspoons baking powder





350 degrees F for 15 mins.





heres a link to a site, the recipes are supposed to be healthy muffin recipes. http://www.bellybytes.com/recipe/muffins鈥?/a>
I would say as far as cupcakes, the less artificial coloring the better. My friend used Cool Whip on the cupcakes instead of frosting. Still not what I would consider healthy, but better at least.





We have a specialty grocery chain in Oregon called Wild Oats and they have a full organic bakery. So, that is where we got my daughters cake. I am sure you could find one that offers organic/reduced sugar cakes. But no worries, I would not stress too much about it, a little bit of sugar won't hurt her :).
September 13 is my birthday! I was be 24 though lol.





Here is a website with a lot of healthy cake recipes. I think you should do a small cake for her, like a cup cake, and a larger cake for everyone else. That way your baby can have fun with her cake and everyone else can enjoy it as well.





http://www.eatingwell.com/recipes/collec鈥?/a>
Just a question can your baby not have sugar? Is there a reason they cant just have fun on thier first birthday? I would google healthy cake recipies im sure you will come up with several.

I need new recipes for scallops, flounder, and shelled clams please? Healthy diet conscience recipes a must?

Yeah, its a must


and the most healthy food is the organic food*I need new recipes for scallops, flounder, and shelled clams please? Healthy diet conscience recipes a must?
I like to grill sea scallops and serve them on a bed of fresh spinach. For grilling, you can just moisten them with a little olive oil to keep them from sticking and season w/sale and lemon pepper. Be careful not to overcook as they will become tough. Serve hot on a bed of fresh spinach with a light vinegarette.I need new recipes for scallops, flounder, and shelled clams please? Healthy diet conscience recipes a must?
The clams and scallops would be great in a fiery tomato sauce. Of course, a butter and garlic sauce or cream sauce would be divine- and very bad for the waistline. I would feel confident using a jarred sauce - I really like Classico and Paul Newman - and adding onions, bell peppers, garlic, oregano, and basil (fresh basil is best), mushrooms if you like. Save the flounder for another meal and poach or broil with a little brushing of olive oil. You could make a fish/seafood stew and use all three ingredients- but I think going separate creates two better dishes.
I've found many good recipes from this website, further more, there are all about healthy food and cooked in a simple, unique way.


Hope you find it useful.





http://recipesforhealthyliving.blogspot.鈥?/a>
Well I was GOING to say bacon wrapped scallops and then sauteed in butter, but that's not exactly healthy, haha :D





I like to just broil them in the oven, I lightly season the flounder and scallops and just broil them until they're done.

Well, grilled cheese is a perennial favorite.





But instead of using the usual “processed, homogenized, gentrified, sterilized, paris-hiltonized cheese food product,” on your grilled cheese sammy, try slices of gruyere, raclette or brie. Brush the bread with extra-virgin olive oil and toast slowly in a heavy iron skillet. Serve with a salad of mixed greens and a cup of tomato soup.





My favorite veggie sandwich option would be hummus with black olives, sliced pepperoncinis, mixed greens and a paper-thin slice of red onion. Give it all a dash of your house vinaigrette, or Annie’s Goddess dressing.





I haven’t made the grilled cheese sandwich detailed in the link below. But, it sounds like something that I would do – make bread so I could make a sandwich. I haven’t gone so far as to make cheese so I can make a sandwich, so, maybe I still retain a shred of sanity.

Where can I find ideas / recipes for easy healthy meals that kids like to eat?

My 4 year old hasn't developed very good eating habits. It's our fault and we know it. We want to do better.





Is there a book or some other source of easy to fix foods that are reasonably healthy and that kids like to eat? Preferably something that you've used yourself and have found effective.Where can I find ideas / recipes for easy healthy meals that kids like to eat?
I just make this myself because my mom used to make it for us and they were my favorites. Plus, I have 4 extremely picky nieces and nephews that say ';EWWW! That's gross!! I'm not eating thaaat!!!'; so this is what I found works:





Home-made ';hamburger helper'; (it's a casserole but I tell them it's this and they go for it...:


They liked any kind we bought in the box, so first, I cooked some pasta (egg noodles work, the little shells, and the elbow macaroni are best for kids). Then I browned some ground beef, tossed in a small can of tomato paste, and a few seasonings like chili powder or oregano--whatever you feel like along w/ salt n pepper...


Mix the pasta into the meat and tomato paste and transfer into a casserole dish.Spread the top with shredded cheese of your choice and bake at 350 until melted--about 25 minutes.





Also, there's a home-ade pizza kit that Chef-Boyardee makes that is EXCELLENT and a lot of fun to make with kids--let them create their own pizza but give them specific options like maybe just cheese, cheese and pepperoni (buy it it the hotdog section), etc.





Ground beef or refried bean and cheese burritos are great, too--from scratch...Small flour tortillas, refried beans, favorite shredded cheese...You can add sour cream if they like it and ground beef w/ taco seasoning goes well for a combo burrito...





Hot dogs and macaroni and cheese work well, too. Also, I designated each child their own ';I-get-to-pick dinner'; night. In the morning, give them 3 options that ONLY include meals from home (no takeout pizza, burgers, or subs) and then let them ';help'; on that evening. You can really benefit a lot from this--they learn what a balanced meal is, they can be creative, find new things they like, and you get to see what they like and maybe you can add variety to some things. I also went and got kids cookbooks from the library and let them pick out new things to try based on the pictures...

Where can I find some recipes that are healthy and use cheap ingredients?

I'm moving out on my own for the first time in about a month, and in order to save money, I want to cook at home all the time. But I'm not very familiar with recipes and ingredients and things, so I was hoping someone could refer me to a website or a book with some healthy recipes that use common and cheap ingredients. I'm trying to have a low grocery bill but also eat well. Anything would be appreciated! Thanks!Where can I find some recipes that are healthy and use cheap ingredients?
I agree you need a good cookbook. You could always get some at the library, and once you find one(or more) that you like, you can look for them on Amazon.com.





Browse around the grocery store and write down items that are cheap, that you like. Rice, pasta, potatoes, squash, whole chicken (rather than boneless pieces) are cheap. Making things from scratch is far cheaper than buying ready-made. Homemade pizza is cheaper than delivery. Pancakes, muffins, cookies, etc are cheaper to make yourself than buying a mix--and they taste better, too.

Here's one I hope you will try.


Italian Country Chicken


6 Boneless skinless chicken breasts, quartered (about 2 1/2 lbs.)


3 eggs beaten


2 1/4 cups Italian breadcrumbs


1/2 cup, plus 1 to 2 tablespoons butter, divided


2 Tablespoons extra virgin olive oil


1 1/2 tsp. dried Italian seasoning


2 large green peppers , thinly sliced


1 (7-ounce) can sliced mushrooms, drained


2 cups Montery Jack cheese


1 (2.8-ounce) can French's Original French Fried Onions





1. Soak chicken breasts in beaten eggs overnight.


2. Coat chicken pieces with breadcrumbs. In a large skillet, melt 1/2 cup butter over medium heat until golden brown. Add half the chicken and cook about 2 minutes per side. Repeat until all chicken is browned, adding 1 to 2 Tablespoons additional butter, if needed. Transfer chicken to a 13x9 inch baking pan. 4. Add olive oil and Italian seasoning to pan drippings and heat over medium heat. Add peppers and cook 12 minutes or until richly brown and caramelized, stirring frequently. Sprinkle pepper and mushrooms evenly over chicken. Deglaze the pan with some of the chicken broth and pour over all. Add remaining chicken broth. Top with cheese. Bake uncovered, 30 minutes or until golden. Serves 6.

If you cut the breast into strips or cubes first, it will cook more quickly and evenly in the frying pan. Serving it with veggies on rice or pasta, or mixed in a salad is pretty good. If you put something on it, be careful what you use. It depends on what type of diet you are on, though. Some diets don't approve of rice or pasta.
I use thigh fillets for this recipe. 4 chicken thigh fillets cut into half. Remove all visible fat. In a large pan add 1 tablespoon of olive oil and cook chicken in batches until brown. Pour off any excess fat. Add 1/2 cup of chicken stock and bring to boil. Reduce the heat and simmer for about 30 minutes until chicken is fully cooked. Add 1/2 of white wine and the same balsamic vinegar. Boil on high for a few minutes or until liquid thickens a bit. Season with salt and pepper. Serve on a bed af mashed sweet potato and sauted baby spinach with garlic. Drizzle the sauce all over. A winner everytime. Enjoy
Here's how I like to cook it.





4 boneless chicken breasts


1 large onion


1/2 large bell pepper


1 clove of garlic diced


2 T creole seasoning


1 can chicken broth


1 t dried parsley


1/4 teaspoon dried sweet basil


2 T olive oil





Chop the onion and bellpepper. Cut the chicken into chunks, season well with the creole seasoning. Heat the olive oil in a large pot. ( I like to use cast iron, but anything will work. ) Saute the onions and bell pepper in the olive oil till tender over medium high heat. Onions will appear transparent. Add the seasoned chicken. Brown the chicken on all sides. Once the chicken is browned, add the chicken broth, parsley, basil, and garlic. Return to a boil, turn heat to low, cover and simmer for 30 to 40 mins. You can use a tablespoon of cornstarch at the end to thicken the gravy. Mix the cornstarch in a small amount of water separately and stir into the chicken. let it boil for a min or two to allow gravy to thicken.





Serve over rice.





Enjoy!

Raw food recipes, and looking for healthy raw porridge recipes?

any ideas?





All I have tried so far is porridge soaked in a bit of milk and sugar, want something healthier.


What raw websites do you use.Raw food recipes, and looking for healthy raw porridge recipes?
This is my favourite breakfast using raw oats:





Apple muesli





Make a batch of wheat-free muesli wth:


500g oats


150g raisins


100g mixed raw nuts or pumpkin and sunflower seeds, or a combination


Quarter teaspoon of cinnamon.





At breakfast time, put one-third of a cup of the muesli into a large cereal bowl with two-thirds of a cup of sweetened soya milk (it must be soya for best taste - not dairy. I don't like soya milk in most things, but in this it's fantastic).


Add a grated apple (gala is my favourite) and half a tablespoon of lemon juice (this brings out the flavour nicely).


Mix it up. You can add a handful of cut up strawberries or banana if you like, but that's optional.


Bon appetit!





This is utterly delicious, and so good for you, too.Raw food recipes, and looking for healthy raw porridge recipes?
To the oats add any fruit, dried or fresh, nuts and seeds of your choice, sweeten to taste with honey or sugar, add yoghurt and/or milk to make your own muesli.
For my breakfast I make a mix of 500g oats, 250g of barley flakes, rye flakes and oatmeal then add 250g of raisins sultanas and dried apricots(chopped). You can vary the additions by adding nuts, seeds etc to suit your taste. Last lot I bought cost 拢6.30 from Holland %26amp; Barretts and will last about 6 weeks. I soak my daily portion in skimmed milk in the fridge overnight so it is very low fat.

Well, grilled cheese is a perennial favorite.





But instead of using the usual “processed, homogenized, gentrified, sterilized, paris-hiltonized cheese food product,” on your grilled cheese sammy, try slices of gruyere, raclette or brie. Brush the bread with extra-virgin olive oil and toast slowly in a heavy iron skillet. Serve with a salad of mixed greens and a cup of tomato soup.





My favorite veggie sandwich option would be hummus with black olives, sliced pepperoncinis, mixed greens and a paper-thin slice of red onion. Give it all a dash of your house vinaigrette, or Annie’s Goddess dressing.





I haven’t made the grilled cheese sandwich detailed in the link below. But, it sounds like something that I would do – make bread so I could make a sandwich. I haven’t gone so far as to make cheese so I can make a sandwich, so, maybe I still retain a shred of sanity.

I need new recipes for scallops, flounder, and shelled clams please? Healthy diet conscience recipes a must?

Yeah, its a must


and the most healthy food is the organic food*I need new recipes for scallops, flounder, and shelled clams please? Healthy diet conscience recipes a must?
I like to grill sea scallops and serve them on a bed of fresh spinach. For grilling, you can just moisten them with a little olive oil to keep them from sticking and season w/sale and lemon pepper. Be careful not to overcook as they will become tough. Serve hot on a bed of fresh spinach with a light vinegarette.I need new recipes for scallops, flounder, and shelled clams please? Healthy diet conscience recipes a must?
The clams and scallops would be great in a fiery tomato sauce. Of course, a butter and garlic sauce or cream sauce would be divine- and very bad for the waistline. I would feel confident using a jarred sauce - I really like Classico and Paul Newman - and adding onions, bell peppers, garlic, oregano, and basil (fresh basil is best), mushrooms if you like. Save the flounder for another meal and poach or broil with a little brushing of olive oil. You could make a fish/seafood stew and use all three ingredients- but I think going separate creates two better dishes.
I've found many good recipes from this website, further more, there are all about healthy food and cooked in a simple, unique way.


Hope you find it useful.





http://recipesforhealthyliving.blogspot.鈥?/a>
Well I was GOING to say bacon wrapped scallops and then sauteed in butter, but that's not exactly healthy, haha :D





I like to just broil them in the oven, I lightly season the flounder and scallops and just broil them until they're done.

Please share your opinions and what you did. thanksWhat are some healthy cupcake/cake recipes for babies 1st birthday?
My opinion is you shouldn't worry about healthy when it comes to birthday cakes. There are 364 other days in the year to be healthy. And no sugar doesn't necessarily mean healthy!What are some healthy cupcake/cake recipes for babies 1st birthday?
you can try a muffin recipe. banana muffins arent bad and im sure kids will like them.


heres a no-sugar banana muffin recipe





- 1 cup mashed bananas


- 1 egg


- 1/2 cup water


- 1/2 cup vegetable oil


- 2 cups flour


- 1 teaspoon baking soda


- 2 1/4 teaspoons baking powder





350 degrees F for 15 mins.





heres a link to a site, the recipes are supposed to be healthy muffin recipes. http://www.bellybytes.com/recipe/muffins鈥?/a>
I would say as far as cupcakes, the less artificial coloring the better. My friend used Cool Whip on the cupcakes instead of frosting. Still not what I would consider healthy, but better at least.





We have a specialty grocery chain in Oregon called Wild Oats and they have a full organic bakery. So, that is where we got my daughters cake. I am sure you could find one that offers organic/reduced sugar cakes. But no worries, I would not stress too much about it, a little bit of sugar won't hurt her :).
September 13 is my birthday! I was be 24 though lol.





Here is a website with a lot of healthy cake recipes. I think you should do a small cake for her, like a cup cake, and a larger cake for everyone else. That way your baby can have fun with her cake and everyone else can enjoy it as well.





http://www.eatingwell.com/recipes/collec鈥?/a>
Just a question can your baby not have sugar? Is there a reason they cant just have fun on thier first birthday? I would google healthy cake recipies im sure you will come up with several.

I just make this myself because my mom used to make it for us and they were my favorites. Plus, I have 4 extremely picky nieces and nephews that say ';EWWW! That's gross!! I'm not eating thaaat!!!'; so this is what I found works:





Home-made ';hamburger helper'; (it's a casserole but I tell them it's this and they go for it...:


They liked any kind we bought in the box, so first, I cooked some pasta (egg noodles work, the little shells, and the elbow macaroni are best for kids). Then I browned some ground beef, tossed in a small can of tomato paste, and a few seasonings like chili powder or oregano--whatever you feel like along w/ salt n pepper...


Mix the pasta into the meat and tomato paste and transfer into a casserole dish.Spread the top with shredded cheese of your choice and bake at 350 until melted--about 25 minutes.





Also, there's a home-ade pizza kit that Chef-Boyardee makes that is EXCELLENT and a lot of fun to make with kids--let them create their own pizza but give them specific options like maybe just cheese, cheese and pepperoni (buy it it the hotdog section), etc.





Ground beef or refried bean and cheese burritos are great, too--from scratch...Small flour tortillas, refried beans, favorite shredded cheese...You can add sour cream if they like it and ground beef w/ taco seasoning goes well for a combo burrito...





Hot dogs and macaroni and cheese work well, too. Also, I designated each child their own ';I-get-to-pick dinner'; night. In the morning, give them 3 options that ONLY include meals from home (no takeout pizza, burgers, or subs) and then let them ';help'; on that evening. You can really benefit a lot from this--they learn what a balanced meal is, they can be creative, find new things they like, and you get to see what they like and maybe you can add variety to some things. I also went and got kids cookbooks from the library and let them pick out new things to try based on the pictures...

Where can I find some recipes that are healthy and use cheap ingredients?

I'm moving out on my own for the first time in about a month, and in order to save money, I want to cook at home all the time. But I'm not very familiar with recipes and ingredients and things, so I was hoping someone could refer me to a website or a book with some healthy recipes that use common and cheap ingredients. I'm trying to have a low grocery bill but also eat well. Anything would be appreciated! Thanks!Where can I find some recipes that are healthy and use cheap ingredients?
I agree you need a good cookbook. You could always get some at the library, and once you find one(or more) that you like, you can look for them on Amazon.com.





Browse around the grocery store and write down items that are cheap, that you like. Rice, pasta, potatoes, squash, whole chicken (rather than boneless pieces) are cheap. Making things from scratch is far cheaper than buying ready-made. Homemade pizza is cheaper than delivery. Pancakes, muffins, cookies, etc are cheaper to make yourself than buying a mix--and they taste better, too.





Good luck! You are very mature and smart!Where can I find some recipes that are healthy and use cheap ingredients?
Be prepared to make an investment of a few bucks to buy a good cook book. And read it cover to cover. There is lots of information in a good one. The Good and Easy Cookbook by Betty Crocker is a great beginner one. Any recipe can be a healthy one but learn how to cook first. Also, ask your mom to share recipes that you love that she makes.
Check it out at the sources below and discover the secret recipes from your favorite restaurants and easily cook them yourself. The same tastes and flavors for a fraction of the cost.





Have a great day!
Thats pretty easy. WWW.COOKS.COM. I live and swear by that site

I highly recommend the book called South Beach Diet. The title covers the whole front page and the book is blue.


Within the first chapter I lost 3 pounds in 3 days. Its not a diet like the title says. It explains a healthier way of living and there are all kinds of recipes in the back.


I lent the book to my sister, my mom, 2 co workers who encouraged others to read it and they swear by it.I need a cheap good book with cheap recipes for a healthy diet?

My 1 year old has disovered mac and cheese....any good homemade and healthy recipes out there?

Any other healthy food recipes for toddlers?My 1 year old has disovered mac and cheese....any good homemade and healthy recipes out there?
Add precooked vegetables to the Mac and Cheese!!!





Any chance you get to add fruits and vegetables to your kids' food should be exploited. That will start a lifelong love of healthier eating. Good luck!


ymmfMy 1 year old has disovered mac and cheese....any good homemade and healthy recipes out there?
Mac %26amp; Cheese isn't very hard from scratch. I commend you for wanting to make the real thing. The stuff in the blue box is very very salty, and contains lots of preservatives. The cheese is so processed (that magic orange powder!) that it can't hardly be called cheese any more.





Easy Mac %26amp; Cheese





Boil up a pound of Mac. Drain.





2 tablespoons butter


2 tablespoons flour


2 cups hot milk


12 oz shredded cheese (mild cheddar for kids, sharp for me)


salt


pepper





Melt the butter over medium-low heat. Once it melts, allow it to bubble until it stops -- this gets all the water out of the butter.





Add the flour and whisk and continue to cook the paste until it starts to turn golden, about 2 minutes. Add the hot milk in splashes and whisk continuously. Incorporate all the milk and whisk until you have a white sauce. Add a dash of pepper and salt.





Add the shredded cheese 1/3 at a a time, whisking all the way.





Pour the finished sauce onto the mac. You can serve it like this, or...





For an extra treat, put it in a casserole, cover with breadcrumbs or cracker crumbs, dot with butter, and top with more cheese. Put it under the broiler until golden brown.





Enjoy the toddler years!
Homemade Mac and Cheese





Ingredients-


8 ounces macaroni


2 cups shredded sharp Cheddar cheese


1/2 cup grated Parmesan cheese

1/2 cup bread crumbs


1 pinch paprika








Preparation-


Cook macaroni according to the package directions. Drain.


In a saucepan, melt butter or margarine over medium heat. Stir in enough flour to make a roux. Add milk to roux slowly, stirring constantly. Stir in cheeses, and cook over low heat until cheese is melted and the sauce is a little thick. Put macaroni in large casserole dish, and pour sauce over macaroni. Stir well.


Melt butter or margarine in a skillet over medium heat. Add breadcrumbs and brown. Spread over the macaroni and cheese to cover. Sprinkle with a little paprika.


Bake at 350 degrees F (175 degrees C) for 30 minutes. Serve.

Please double check the salt (sodium) in the M/C..??


It may be unreasonable for a 1Y/O..


There is another catagory here in Y/A - -for parents including toddlers.. Their resources may have many web sites for food.
When you can't make your own, try Annies Natural Mac and Cheese. Its lower in sodium, uses organic durham flour, and is great tasting!
rice and gravy
The poster above had a good recipe, but use whole wheat pasta and substitute some of the cheese for squash puree. It sounds gross, but I do this and my kids don't notice, I swear!
I make homemade almost exactly as the previous poster does. One exception - I use the microwave. Stirring every minute at first, and then every 30 seconds. It doesn't save time, but it prevents scorching on the bottom of the pan, and if your toddler calls you away, it won't burn. It will just sit in the microwave until you return. Just make sure to set the timer to the appropriate interval.





Now that the kids are older, I add broccoli and bacon, or sausage meat to it, too.

I'm FREAKING OUT!!! What is a safe dog food I can feed my puppy and my dog??? Any healthy homemade recipes?

i love my dogs so much. i don't know what to do. i want them to be safe and healthy. what can i do with 95 brands of pet foods being recalled, and that number is possibly going to rise?I'm FREAKING OUT!!! What is a safe dog food I can feed my puppy and my dog??? Any healthy homemade recipes?
All the foods being recalled are low quality. Natural Balance is NOT affected by the recall as they DO NOT do business with Menu Foods and the DO NOT use wheat.


http://www.naturalbalanceinc.com





Some other foods to look for are Blue Buffalo, Wysong, Merrick, Wellness, Evo, Innova, Solid Gold, and other human grade foods that do not use fillers.





I hope this helps.








Edit: Science Diet is bad food, as are Purina Alpo, Pedigree, etc. Nutro is not much better, and they have foods being recalled. I wouldn't risk it.





Unfortunately, many of the people offering help today aren't educated on foods. That's why I get negged for saying that these are bad foods. DOn't believe me, believe the ingredient labels. http://www.feedmypet.com/dog-food-compar鈥?/a> lol.I'm FREAKING OUT!!! What is a safe dog food I can feed my puppy and my dog??? Any healthy homemade recipes?

My vet told me to feed my dogs ';Royal Canin Dry';. They love it and it has all the nutrients they need. I have been feeding that to mine, for quite a while now, and they are healthier than ever, and have had no health problems.
I go with Nutro Natural Choice. It's got good ingredients and is relatively cheap.
Don't go with Science Diet - they just have a recall on their DRY cat food! - so will it now include more dry foods?
Purina brand of dog food is a safe brand........!
Mix in a food processer or chop up really really good with a knife:


2 cans of diced potatoes and 1 can of red salmon


Include the bone and skin of the salmon.


Check with your vet before changing your dog's food.


But a good homemade dog food needs to be


2 parts starch, (potatoes) and


1 part protein, (salmon)


Good Luck
Alpo and Pedigree, my dogs eat it and I've checked the list of recalled pet foods(updated today) that the Delaware County Aspca's website has listed and I didn't see them on the list.
Science Diet is a good brand to go with. You can also do homemade stuff with protein, like chicken or eggs and some rice and veggies.
if you want to make a healthy meal for your dog or puppy make this get some steak do not put anything on it and cook or grill it medium rare its healthy fro them plus they love it.for small puppies i would cut it up alot so they can chew it easyer
