Kids love to decorate these Christmas cookies as their imaginations inspire.
Broiling tofu gives it a crispy texture without the hassle of deep-frying. The peanut sauce is so versatile that it can double as a veggie dip or be tossed with cold pasta and chicken for lunch. Picky eaters may prefer red peppers, carrot or sugar snap peas instead of broccoli, so just substitute your favourite vegetable.
Save some of this dinner for a delicious lunch to pack in a microwaveable container the next day. Then all your child has to do is warm it in the microwave at school. And she can even leave the green onions out!
Start the workweek right with a light yet hearty meal packed with good-for-you veggies.
Beautiful maroon-hued figs and a spiced honeylike sauce are an intriguing pair. Vanilla ice cream or a semi-firm sheep's cheese would also be ideal partners instead of the mascarpone mixture.
Serve with: Rice and an oriental green vegetable, such as Chinese broccoli, snow peas or bok choy In Thailand many kinds of meat and seafood are stir-fried simply with chilies and aromatic Thai basil, but Italian basil makes a fine substitute. In Thailand this dish is usually fiery hot with chilies; we have tamed it here, but you can adjust it to your own taste. If raw cashews are unavailable, use roasted cashews and omit the skillet-toasting; add to pan 1 minute before sugar and lime juice.
Celery and apple add to the subtle sweetness of parsnip in this smooth soup. Frizzled leeks add a touch of restaurant flair, but croutes or croutons will also work.
This dish has a spicy kick to it. However, it can be customized by adding as much or as little of the garlic chili sauce as you like. Serve with hot cooked rice or egg noodles.
