August 2007 Anything Veggies

Haydee Hyde will be hosting cooking club at her home on Thursday August 9th at 7 p.m.
The theme is veggies. {Main dishes, side dishes, "desserts", anything veggies} For those of you that just moved into the ward Heidi has recently moved one block out of the ward boundries. We love Heidi and are excited that even though she moved into the Carondelet Ward she is willing to host cooking club. I hear her new place is adorable. See comments for her address and directions. If you haven't been in a while come eat, laugh and relax.



Edible solution:
Did you know that your lettuce can stay fresh a little longer if you wrap it in a paper towel and put it back in a plastic bag or plastic container, even after you have cut it?

For SHAME!
I have been out of town for a week and I expected to come back and find all of these lovely veggie recipes up here and what do I get!!!?! NOTHING!

So here's a yummy vegetable soup recipe that I just got from my brother. We made it tonight and it is delish!

Jim's Vegetable Soup

1 C diced carrots
1 C diced zucchini
1/2 medium onion diced
olive oil
1 can diced tomatoes
2 cans chicken broth
3 cloves garlic minced
1/2 cub cabbage torn in large pieces
salt and pepper to taste

Saute carrots, zucchini and onions in olive oil until onions are clear. Add tomatoes, chicken broth and garlic. Bring to a boil and then reduce to a simmer for 15 minutes, or until the carrots are soft. Add cabbage and simmer for 3 minutes. Salt and Pepper to taste. Serve with fresh grated parmesan and crusty bread.

Yummy Pizza!!! (it is very good)
You don't need exact measurements. It's all about taste.
On a pizza crust (homemade or store bought) halfway cooked.
put:
a thin layer of pesto
a layer of thinly sliced tomato(es)
a layer of spinach
marinated artichoke hearts
feta cheese
Bake at 350ºF. for about 10 min.

This is the pizza crust I use. It is easy and fast. I bake it for 10 minutes and then another 10 with the toppings.

1 package regular or quick active dry yeast
1 cup warm water (105º to 115º)
2 1/2 cups all-purpose flour
2 tablespoons olive or vegetable oil
1/2 teaspoon salt
Olive or vegetable oil
Cornmeal
Dissolve yeast in warm water in medium bowl. Stir in flour, 2 tablespoons oil and salt. Beat vigorously 20 strokes. Cover and let rest 20 minutes.
Move oven rack to lowest position. Heat oven to 425º. Grease 2 cookie sheets or 12-inch pizza pans with oil. Sprinkle with cornmeal. Divide dough in half; pat each half into 11-inch circle on cookie sheet with floured fingers. Prick dough thoroughly with fork. Bake about 10 min. or until crust just begins to brown.
You can make the crust ahead of time in the day to save some time and then make the pizza later when you are ready to eat it. Enjoy. Haydee.
