Rolled oats and dark brown sugar bring a great earthiness to the dough, and the bittersweet chocolate is a refreshing change to your usual cookie! http://www.grouprecipes.com/107326/oats-and-chocolate-shortbread.html Yes, the ingredient list is long-winded and rather complex looking, but it’s mostly just the plethora of different grains and seeds that go into these delicious, chewy cookies! The nuts, grains and seeds add a touch of crunch and a whole other texture to the traditional “oatmeal” cookie, not to mention a whack of nutrition! The dough must rest overnight to absorb all the liquid and prevent it from flattening during baking. http://www.grouprecipes.com/107029/supergrain-cookies-with-nuts-and-fruit.html Now this is the kind of school I like! I wrote this healthy, fast vegetarian recipe for my Supervision class' assignment on recipe development and quality control - this thing's been tested 6 times! The serving size of 8 is *very* generous - this makes a ton of food and is a whole meal in a bowl! http://www.grouprecipes.com/106568/spinach-and-black-bean-pasta.html Need a new yeast bread to have for your morning toast? This devilishly decadent loaf is a star - moist and tender from a milk, honey and banana - yes banana! - base, and riddled with toffee bits for bites of sweet surprise! A wholesome, protein and fibre filled dough with soy flour, oats and bran mean you'll be able to keep going well into lunch! http://www.grouprecipes.com/105426/bite-of-heaven-bread.html A subtly spiced pumpkin bread with a hint of sweetness from the banana and pockets of decadent dates and raisins, an earthy richness from pecans and a touch of crunch from cornmeal. http://www.grouprecipes.com/104696/banana---pumpkin-loaf-with-dried-fruits-and-pecans.html This dish is a meal in its self, no need for extra food, but a nice crusty roll dipped in is nice, ideal for these winter months ahead, http://www.grouprecipes.com/104579/bacon-and-barley-soup.html This is the perfect use up for home made applesauce! I used a rich, thick home made kind made with peel-on, roasted apples, but of course jarred sauce or apple butter are fine! http://www.grouprecipes.com/103135/delicious-apple-fibre-muffins.html Adapted from Hannah's recipe at BitterSweet, this is a new and unique way to make "Zucchini Bread". You'll be dying to get your next giant out of the garden! Original recipe here: http://bittersweetblog.wordpress.com/2009/08/25/growing-like-weeds/ http://www.grouprecipes.com/102763/almond---zucchini-babka.html I had this soup in Lucca Italy this summer. I just had to have it again. If you cannot find Farro, spelt or wheat berry will also work. If you can find the Farro it is worth the cost. Whole Foods does carry it. http://www.grouprecipes.com/102585/tuscan-farro-and-bean-soup.html The best of every sandwich you could ever ask for! A slice of this crazy banana and oatmeal quickbread, made moist with yogurt, encompasses a body spiked with peanut butter and a ribbony filling of jam! Use your favourite flavour jam for these, or go the extra decadent route and make it with a ribbon of pie filling instead! Makes 2 loaves of about 12 slices each. http://www.grouprecipes.com/102496/pb-n-j-banana-bread.html
