Gotta try that. I love onion rings, but these days anything fried makes me sick!

They ARE good, and fairly quick and simple, a bit of chopping aside!

I have to agree about being simple and rather do my own chopping...fresher that way.

Baked Sweet Potato "Fries"
sweet potatoes
olive oil
salt
cinnamon
cayenne pepper (optional)
Heat oven to 450 degrees. Cut sweet potatoes in half widthwise. Cut each half into wedges, think steak fries. Drizzle with olive oil and toss to coat. Spread on a baking sheet, preferably lined with non-stick foil. Sprinkle with salt, cinnamon, and cayenne. Bake for about 25 min, until brown and becoming crispy, turning halfway through.

Not really a recipe here so much as suggestion...............Ivy and I are always insanely busy on Faire mornings, but we have to have something quick to eat, and cereal bars get pretty old after a while. We tried Burger King's breakfast sandwiches.....good, but small and fairly expensive.
Finally got smart. On Fridays I get some good bagles, fry up some bacon and scrambled eggs, which I allowed to cook into a solid patty so I could cut them into quarters, and toss everything in the fridge. Faire mornings we simply toss some bacon (or sausage, if you prefer ) and an egg 'quarter', plus a couple of slices of cheese on a bagle, nuke, wrap loosely in foil and go. Fairly easy to eat en route, filling and realitively cheap. Problem solved! ( And better than Burger King by a mile! )

Glad you enjoyed it!  Couscous Salad with Roasted Vegetables 1 12-ounce box couscous 1 1/2 cups boiling water 1/4 cup olive oil 1 small eggplant, cut into 1/2-inch cubes 1 zucchini, diced fine 1 yellow squash, diced fine 3 garlic cloves, minced 1 red or green bell pepper, cut into 1/2-inch squares 1 red onion, diced fine 1 can chickpeas, drained and rinsed 1/3 cup balsamic vinegar 1/2 cup walnuts, toasted and coarsely chopped 1/2 cup fresh basil leaves salt and pepper Heat oven to 450 degrees. Line a large baking sheet with non-stick aluminum foil. Pour couscous in a bowl big enough for the whole salad. Pour boiling water mixed with 1 Tbsp olive oil over the couscous. Cover tightly and let rest, 15-20 minutes. Remove plastic wrap, and fluff couscous with a fork. Put the eggplant in a colander placed in the sink. Sprinkle the eggplant with a thin coat of salt, and toss to distribute. Let eggplant rest for at least 20 minutes to "sweat". Toss the zucchini and yellow squash with 1 Tbsp olive oil, a sprinkling of salt and pepper, and 1 garlic clove. Spread on the baking sheet and roast for 8-10 minutes, until vegetables begin to brown. Scrape zucchini and squash, along with any juices, into bowl with couscous. Toss pepper and onion with 1 Tbsp olive oil, a sprinkling of salt and pepper, and 1 garlic clove. Spread on baking sheet and roast for 10-15 minutes, or until beginning to brown. Add to with couscous. Rinse eggplant and lightly squeeze between paper towels. Toss eggplant with 1 Tbsp olive oil, 1 garlic clove but NO salt. Roast for 15-20 minutes, or until brown. Add to bowl with couscous and other vegetables. Add the chickpeas, vinegar, walnuts and basil. Gently toss with a big spoon. Good warm, room temp. or cold. |
