I will try again with the glass mason jar and maybe regular milk? I used soymilk.


did you use regular oats or steel cut?


i like the steel cut, and my gf likes regular, also i use almond milk (not the unsweetned kind)


i put them in tupperware type containers with twist on lids

Recipe
 
I am thinking about making chicken enchiladas today so I am working up a recipe in my head. I can poach the chicken, shred it, and then mix it with cream cheese for the filling. I want to make a green sauce. I have salsa verde so maybe I can use that some how.

Any suggestions?

Sounds like you have the mixings all down, I'd use fresh tomotillios roasted and blended with 1/2 sweet onion, 1 fresh jalipino roasted and seeded, and 1 clove of garlic for the green sauce. saltnpepper totaste. I use a cup of orange juice and a table spoon of worschishire to poach the chicken, add fresh chopped celantro after shredding. Turn up the heat in the pan after the chicken comes out, while shredding chicken let the juices reduce by half, add back shredded chicken and sop up the flavor, then make the filling. Add some sauce to the bottom of tray, add enchelladas and cover with the rest of the sauce, add cheese to the top and bake for 15 minutes at 350*. Hot bubbly goodness.

That sounds yummy. Thank you for your suggestions.

Chad, you could also add diced green chili's and shredded cheese and even a can of cream of chicken soup to your filling mixture. Add some chicken broth to your salsa verde and you will have a fantastic green sauce. You could also make it yourself using fresh tomatillo's, white onion diced and a couple of jalapenos and bake them for about 20 minutes at 350. You'll want to cut your tomatillo's in half and you can add as many jalapenos that you want for extra kick. Once you baked all the ingredients I mentioned you can add them to your blender or food processor and blend away to a consistency that you like.
Thanks to the useless information that runs around in my head I have to share this handy little bit of information. You can use your hand mixer to shred your chicken breasts. Happy cooking!

I always start with cold leftover rice... it fries really well with a bit of sesame oil and scrambled eggs. If you want veggies and protein cook that first with a bit of sesame oil, add the rice and scrambled eggs.

I think I will make pad thai today for dinner... what ever you have, enjoy!

'Hush-Puppy' Falafel Ball Treats w/ Orange Miso Sauce
 
Ingredients:

1 - Trader Joe's package of Falafel mix
3 - organic eggs
3 to 4 Tablespoonful's of Organic Coconut flour
1 1/2 cups of Organic Miso Ginger Broth
1 can of creamed Corn
2 Tablespoons of Organic Monk-fruit Sweetener
1 teaspoon of minced Garlic

And... a large handful of Organic Kale.

Utensils:

Large Mixing Bowl and Mixing Fork/Spoon
Non-Stick Ceramic Skillet
Fry-pan spatula
Organic Coconut Oil (to pan sear your Falafel-Hush-Puppy treats)

Prep-Time to Cooking Time to gobble them up Time: 15 to 20 minutes.

Directions:

Empty the package of Trader Joe's Falafel mix into the large mixing bowl. Add the can of Creamed Corn on top of the Falafel mix. Crack 3 organic eggs over the entire contents in your mixing bowl. Take your mixing fork/spoon and mix up the contents in the bowl. Now add the Miso Ginger Broth and remix the contents again. Add the minced Garlic. Take a large handful of Kale and then mix up all the contents inside the mixing bowl. I usually push the Kale into the Falafel batter mix and then once I do that, it is easier to mix the entire contents inside the mixing bowl. Now that most all of the ingredients are mixed up together, use your Organic Coconut flour sparingly, because you want the end product of your Falafel batter to have time to absorb the liquids we added to this batch of Hush-Puppy-Falafel batter. Add enough coconut flour that it takes on the consistency of a sticky batch of cookie dough. The dough-texture should be loose enough to scoop up a big spoonful to lay down in the skillet that has hot coconut oil in it. Pan sear several spoonfuls in your skillet. About 5 minutes on each side. They should be a golden brown shade on both sides, when you're done cooking them in the skillet. Turn heat off. Serve your Falafel-Hush-Puppy Ball Treats and top them with your favorite sauce. I use an Orange Miso sauce, which complements the flavor of these quick-to-make, healthy treats.


I love how tasty these treats are and how quick it is to make them. I only cook for me, but there is enough in the mixing bowl that I can have these tasty treats again over the weekend for my lunch or supper meals. They are high in fiber, high in protein, and dense with Kale. Win-Win, if you ask me.

Enjoy.

Cooking Techniques
 
These and other techniques can be found at this link.

Sautéing
Sautéing is a form of dry-heat cooking that uses a hot pan and a small amount of fat to cook foods like vegetables, meats, and seafood very quickly. Like other dry-heat cooking methods, sautéing browns the food's surface as it cooks and develops complex flavors and aromas.

_____________________________

Roasting or Baking
In general, roasting refers to cooking something in the oven at a very high temperature, around 400 F or hotter, whereas baking might employ a lower temperature, like 325 to 375 F. But these are not absolute definitions. Regardless of what you call them, roasting and baking are both dry-heat cooking methods that use the oven and are used to cook meat, roast vegetables, bake cakes, and more.

Braising
Braising is a moist-heat technique for cooking meats and vegetables. The low and slow temperatures help tenderize tough cuts of meat as well as root vegetables, greens, and legumes and are the starting point for making soups and stews.

_____________________________

Simmering
Not to be confused with boiling, simmering is a moist cooking method. Simmering is a gentle technique, where the liquid is kept just below boiling, that's useful for cooking dishes like vegetables, soup, and stews.

Chef's Knife
Whether it's slicing, dicing, mincing, or chopping, it all starts with a chef's knife in your hand. Learning how to properly use a chef's knife can not only keep you safe in the kitchen but make prep a cinch.

Chopping an Onion
Once you've got your basic knife skills down, here's your first test: chopping an onion. Any number of savory dishes and sauces feature chopped onions, so you might as well learn to chop them a safe and easy way.

Deglazing a Pan
Deglazing a pan is a technique used after sautéing, searing, or browning food in a pan. Liquid is added, such as stock or wine, to loosen and dissolve the food particles that are stuck to the bottom of the pan. The flavorful mixture produced by deglazing can be used to make a simple pan sauce.

Scrambling Eggs
If you can make perfectly fluffy scrambled eggs without overcooking or scorching them, you'll earn a lifetime of breakfast bragging rights. The key to this technique is making sure you beat plenty of air into the eggs which ensures they turn out light and fluffy every time.
