grilled chicken

I used my cast iron pan that has a griddle embossed in it.
I grilled the chicken with a small amount of salt and and dried minced onions.

After it was grilled I put it pan and all into the oven remembering to turn it.

I cooked it for an additional 30mins in the oven.

Sliders are very popular right now and this version made with ground turkey and baked rather than fried is not only good, but good for you. My kids ate these like there was no tomorrow and even the pickiest of them finished his plate without a complaint. Served with baked Parmesan fries this was the perfect 'fast food' meal and the cost per slider is about 45 cents -- that's good, too.

Ingredients
20 ounces lean ground turkey
2 tablespoons Parmesan cheese, grated
1 clove garlic - minced
1/2 teaspoon basil,, dried
1/2 teaspoon oregano,, dried
1 teaspoon salt
freshly ground black pepper
16 dinner or slider rolls
1/3 cup mayonnaise
1 tablespoon honey Dijon mustard
Directions
Combine ground turkey, cheese and all seasonings. Mix together well.
Shape turkey into 16 small patties.
Place patties on a greased baking sheet.
Bake at 350 degrees F for 8 - 10 minutes or until cooked through. Be careful not to cook too long or they will become dried out.
Combine mayonnaise with honey Dijon mustard and stir until well blended.
Place on rolls and top with honey Dijon mayo.

choc and Zucchini muffins GF

Fiona makes quick bread with this recipe, great for breakfast or an after school snack. I made muffins because they ar easy to pack for a healthy away-from-home snack.

Prep Time: 15 minutes

Cook Time: 50 minutes

Total Time: 65 minutes

Ingredients:

2 cups sorghum flour OR gluten-free all purpose flour mix
1 1/2 teaspoons xanthan gum (don't add gum if using a GF flour mix that contains xanthan gum or guar gum)
1/2 teaspoon salt
1 1/2 teaspoons baking soda
1/2 cup unsweetened cocoa powder
1/2 cup granulated sugar
1/4 cup packed brown sugar
2 large eggs
1/2 cup canola oil OR light olive oil
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
1/2 cup low fat sour cream (for dairy free version substitute applesauce or tofu for sour cream)
3 cups shredded unpeeled zucchini
3/4 cup gluten-free semi-sweet chocolate chips
Preparation:

Preheat oven to 350° F / 176° C

Spray two 8-inch loaf pans OR two 12-cup muffin tins with nonstick cooking spray
Place flour, xanthan gum, salt, baking soda and cocoa powder in a medium bowl. Use a wire whisk to combine.

In a large bowl, place oil, sugars, eggs and vanilla and mix with an electric hand mixer until fluffy. Stir in sour cream (or dairy free substitute) and shredded zucchini. Stir flour mixture into batter until just combined. Fold in chocolate chips.

Divide batter between prepared loaf or muffin pans and bake for 50 minutes for loaves or 25-30 minutes for muffins or until a toothpick inserted in the center of loaf or muffin comes out clean.

Allow to cool on wire rack for 10 minutes before turning out.

Yields about 24 muffins or 8-10 slices per loaf
