Scotch Eggs
Serve hot or cold
6 hard boiled eggs
1 lb. spicy sausage meat
1/2 tsp. dried thyme
1/2 tsp. dried basil
1/2 C flour, divided
1 C breadcrumbs
1 tsp. salt
2 tsp. pepper
1 tsp. paprika
2 eggs, beaten

oil for frying
Makes 6 Eggs

Peel the eggs and set aside. Mix sausage and spices in a small bowl. Divide sausage into 6 equal portions, set aside. Mix breadcrumbs with salt, pepper and paprika, set aside.

Dry each egg with a paper towel, then roll lightly in flour to coat. Take one portion of sausage and using hands, shape a coating around the hard boiled egg, completely enclosing it (see photos). Roll in flour again, then dip in beaten egg then roll in breadcrumb mixture. Repeat with remaining eggs.

Heat about 2-3 inches of oil in a large skillet. Fry eggs, turning frequently, until golden brown on all sides. Drain on paper towels. Let cool slightly before serving. To serve, cut each in half and serve with some good mustard.

Veggie Tortilla Wraps
1 (9") flour tortilla
2 thin slices cheese (Monterey Jack or Swiss is good)
1/2 avocado, sliced thinly
1/3 C leftover grilled vegetables (like zucchini, mushrooms, onions, peppers, etc.)
1 large lettuce leaf
2 T balsamic vinaigrette dressing

Serves 1 (multiply by the number you are making)

Place lettuce leaf across the middle of the tortilla. Top with cheese, avocado and grilled vegetables. Sprinkle with dressing. Fold egg-roll style, tucking in sides as you roll.


Cilantro Tomato Pasta Salad
1 cucumber
1 C ripe red tomatoes, diced
1/2 C red onion, finely chopped
2 T fresh lime juice
1 T cilantro, chopped
1 tsp. granulated sugar
1/4 tsp. salt
1/4 tsp. black pepper
1 C dry small shell pasta, cooked and drained
Serves 4

Peel the cucumber and cut in half lengthwise. Use a spoon to gently scrape away the seeds. Cut in half again lengthwise and dice the cucumber. Place cucumber, tomato, red onion, lime juice, cilantro, sugar, salt and pepper in a bowl with pasta. Toss gently. Transfer to a serving bowl; chill at least 15 minutes before serving.

Could someone give me a really good healthy whole grain bread recipe for the bread machine?

'm looking for a really good whole grain bread recipe. It MUST be light and fluffy on the inside, I really dont like when bread turns out too dense

Thanks in advance!



Answer
Yes, first link in "sources," but you can get better results if you'll use the bread machine only for the dough. Hear me out.

King Arthur Flour's classic 100% Whole Wheat Sandwich Bread (second link in "sources") is the bread you want, but it's not one you should BAKE in the bread machine. Bread machines don't shape loaves of bread really well, and they can't give you "ovenspring" -- when you put a loaf of proofed dough into a hot oven, the heat makes the yeast go crazy and gives it a very big boost, giving big rise. The bread machine heats gradually, and you don't get as much spring out of it.

You can make this bread using the "dough" cycle on your bread machine, then shape it, let it rise again (proof), and bake it in a hot oven to get really nice results. But if you try to bake this in a bread machine, it won't rise as high, so it will be more dense.

If your schedule or needs require that it bake in the machine, you'll want the first recipe. It won't be as fluffy and light as a loaf that's properly shaped and proofed and put into an already-hot oven, but it'll be tasty.
