Cesar artichokes

Cesar artichokes

I always get my delivery of fresh farm for you and you never know what they will do!  This week they brought beautiful artichokes and lawyers.  Tom has had the pleasure of eating creamy super lawyers yesterday but I've been everywhere artichokes last night.  Think, how can I make a recipe Dukan diet off of them, I came up with a Caesar-free oil for them which was absolutely delicious dressing.  A fresh lemon, some garlic and Dijon, and you have a very tasty dressing, a little garlic, for these little wonderful vegetables.  If you need advice on how to prepare an artichoke cooked in steam, you can go to my previous post steamed baby artichokes.  The only difference in these small, is that you will need to remove a portion of the Interior difficult "choke" (the fuzzy part in the Middle above the delicious heart).  Here is a great article on how to prepare and eat an artichoke.  Steam for approximately 30-45 minutes, depending on what size are yours.  Mine were very low, so I need only about 25 minutes.  Enjoy!  And don't be afraid to make these if you never have.  They are worth!

CESAR ARTICHOKES

2-4 artichokes, trimmed and steamed
juice of half a lemon
1 large garlic clove, minced
1/2 cup Dijon mustard
1/2 t red wine vinegar
coursely ground pepper

Steam your artichokes.  While they are in the steamer, combine all ingredients in a small bowl.  Once you cut inside the choke, drizzle dressing over them and serve warm.

Eggplant and garlic beef

Eggplant and garlic beef

Sorry I was a bit AWOL.  I had some international meetings in my Office and had no time to write or eat diet recipes Dukan.  Ugh.  I have some shots do, both on the site with my diet.  So, last night I got back on the right track.  It took a few hours to break down lean beef, but it was well worth the wait.  It was tender and delicious.  Hope you all time to try it!

EGGPLANT AND GARLIC BEEF

1 lb. of extra-lean ground beef, such as top sirloin, cut into cubes
1 small onion, sliced
1 eggplant, cut into cubes
1 box 8 oz tomato sauce
6 cloves garlic, minced
1 chili chipotle and adobo of T (optional) 2 sauce
8 oz of water

Fry the onion and beef in a saucepan heavy until the meat is browned.  Add the tomato, garlic, chipotle sauce if you use and half water.  Cook, covered, for 2 hours, adding water.  Add the Eggplant and continue to Cook, covered for another 30 minutes.

Chicken BLT Wraps

Chicken BLT Wraps

I was craving a BLT last night so I stopped by the market and bought a rotisserie chicken and added bacon and tomato to a simple chicken salad.  Wrapped it all up in a lettuce leaf and I had a perfect Dukan Diet recipe!  I had a fresh avocado that I served for Tom and he absolutely loved it!  It’s only for Consolidation and Stabilization but avocados are such a great source of natural fat and vitamins.  I can’t wait for lunch today–it made for some awesome leftovers.

CHICKEN BLT WRAPS

1 chicken breast, cooked and cubed (I used a rotisserie chicken from the market)
2 plum tomatoes, seeded and chopped
2 pieces turkey or regular bacon, cooked and chopped
1/3 cup fat free sour cream
1 T each, fresh parsley and basil, chopped
coursely ground pepper

Chicken BLT Wraps

Mix all ingredients together in a small bowl and serve with lettuce leaves.  Makes great leftovers for lunch!!

Steak And Pumpkin Quiche

Steak and Pumpkin Quiche

Dukan Diet recipes are simple when you keep the ingredients ever-changing and change-up the combinations a lot.  I had leftover steak from the night before so this was a simple “look in the refrigerator and see what I can come up with” recipe.  If you can’t find fresh pumpkin you can swap for bell peppers, zucchini or any other veggie you like.  Broccoli and cauliflower would be great too.  I find that if I cook extra protein I can make 2-3 different things with it.

STEAK AND PUMPKIN QUICHE

Steak And Pumpkin Quiche

2 cups pumpkin or squash, steamed in microwave until almost soft
1 green mild green chili, chopped
1 cup leftover filet, cubed
1/2 cup fat free cheddar
2 T Parmesan cheese, shredded
6 eggs, whisked well
2 T fat free milk

Whisk the egg and milk until well blended.  Spray a small casserole with a bit of cooking spray.  Place the first 6 ingredients in the dish.  Pour egg mixture over the steak and vegetables.  Season with salt and pepper and bake at 375 for 35-40 minutes.

Lemon Cheesecake

Lemon Cheesecake

The lemon cream is fabulous on toast, if you get bread Dukan.  Just Cook the custard a little less and refrigerate until you are ready to use.  I made this the other night, when we had the lemon chicken.  I asked Tom if he liked it and he thought it was delicious.  I told him it was one of my Dukan diet recipes, and he was shocked!  I hope you enjoy it as much as he did!

LEMON CHEESECAKE

juice and zest of 1 lemon (or about 1/3 cup)
¾ Cup sweetener
3 Eggs
2 Cups fat free cream cheese
3 Cups fat free cream safe
1/2 t vanilla
1 sweetener t

Whisk together first three ingredients.  In a double boiler (or a meeting of bowl over a saucepan of simmering water), continually whisk ingredients until it thickens, about 3-5 minutes.  Stir continuously, or you'll have scrambled eggs!  Once thickened, remove from the heat and stir the cheese cream.  Pour into two small ramekins and set aside.  Mix the cream safe, vanilla and softer in a small bowl and pour half of the mixture on the two ramekins of custard.  Bake at 350 for 10 minutes.  Let cool and refrigerate at least a few hours or overnight.

Baked pasta

Baked pasta

Seriously... cooked pasta, a Dukan diet recipe?  A diet?  If you can find Shirataki noodles, you can have pasta.  And look, I would.  I just took this out of the oven, and I'm not sure I'll wait for Tom to go home.  I love tomatoes and all that lycopene is just screaming in good health.  And some lean protein and a little cheese... it is pretty close to reality for me.

BAKED PASTA

I did not wait

1 onion, chopped
3 sausages of Turkey, removed from the case or 1/2 pound ground sirloin
3 cloves garlic, sliced
1 can 15 oz whole tomatoes
1 box 8 oz tomato sauce
1 14 oz can Basil and oregano diced tomatoes, drained
2 T tomato paste
1 cup Splenda
1/2 cup fresh basil leaves, chopped
parsley dry t 1/2 or 1 T fresh, chopped
Shirataki 2 packages angel hair (link below to amazon.com if you can not find them locally!)
1/2 cup of free mozzarella cheese, part-skim or fat, grated
2 Cups grated Parmesan cheese
salt and pepper, and red pepper flakes

Preheat the oven to 375 °. Smear a dish with nonstick cooking spray.

Add the onion and sausage in a pan and cook for 5 minutes. Add the garlic and cook another minute. Add the tomato sauce and it works well.  Add the whole tomatoes and their juices, breaking up tomatoes with a wooden spoon. Add tomato sauce, Splenda, salt and pepper. Simmer for 20 minutes.

Remove the Pan from the heat. Stir in the tomatoes and of Basil and parsley.

Drain the noodles well. Let them cook for five minutes, drain and transfer to a large bowl. Add half of the sauce in a bowl with noodles. Stir to coat well. Pour the noodle mixture into the dish. Garnish with remaining sauce and sprinkle with cheese.

Bake at 375 ° for 20 to 25 minutes, until the bubbly and lightly browned. Cool for 10 minutes.
