AtoZ Recipes: ~Letter T~

[ElsieB]

We got a lot of responses last week! Yay! This week: Letter T

This is another Weight Watcher's recipe. It is so good! The only bad thing about it is that I can sit and eat the whole bowl by myself.

<u>Tabouli</u>

1 C. dry bulgur wheat
1-1/2 C. boiling water
1 tsp. salt
1/4 C. fresh lemon juice
2 T. olive oil
2 garlic cloves, crushed
pepper to taste

4 scallions, finely minced (white and green parts)
1 C. packed minced parsley
10 to 15 fresh mint leaves, minced
2 medium tomatoes, diced

Combine bulgur and boiling water in large bowl. Cover and let stand until bulgur is tender (20 to 30 minutes). Add salt, lemon juice, olive oil, garlic and black pepper. Mix thoroughly. Cover and tightly refrigerate until about 30 minutes before serving. Add remaining ingredients. Serve cold.

For those counting points--
Yield: 6 servings
2 points per serving

Would you share your recipe for Teriyaki Pan-fried noodles? Sounds good. TIA!

[KariLynn]

The following is my own recipe for teriyaki sauce. My kids have suggested that I market the stuff, they love it so much! It's fairly easy to make, and much cheaper than the store bought stuff...
I use for a lot of things; wings, chicken strips, burgers, salmon, pork, you name it!

The recipe makes about 5 cups of sauce, but it keeps well in the fridge.

Teriyaki Sauce
2 C soy sauce
2 C brown sugar
1 1/2 C ketchup
2 Tblsp dried minced garlic
1 Tbsp sesame oil.

Teriyaki Pan-fried Noodles
3-4 cups al dente Vermicelli or Thin Spaghetti (cooled and rinsed)
2 Tbsp olive oil
1-2 tsp sesame oil
2-3 Tbsp teriyaki sauce
1/4 C cabbage
5 baby carrots julienned
2 green onion, sliced
1 egg beaten

Heat the oils and teriyaki sauce in a large skillet or wok over med-hi heat. Add the veggies and stir to coat. Add the noodles, lifting and stirring until all noodles are coated. Continue to stir fry until noodles are lightly browned. Add additional teriyaki sauce to suit your taste. Push noodles to one side, and scramble egg. Stir egg and onion into noodles, serve with grilled marinated Teriyaki Chicken and steamed vegetables.

If desired, sprinkle noodles with toasted peanuts or cashews.

Note: My kids prefer the noodles without any veggies, but I like the added color and flavor they give.

Enjoy!
