  • Re: Never ending induction recipes

    Here's a treat I tend to make for work lunches. I keep the tomatoes and zucchini separate and just warm them up in the microwave for a few seconds before eating.

    Zucchini Pappardelle with Roasted Tomato Vinaigrette, Arugula and Feta Cheese (6 servings)

    Ingredients
    2 tablespoons good quality balsamic vinegar
    1 tablespoon Dijon mustard
    1/2 teaspoon honey
    Big pinch gray salt
    4 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil
    1/2 teaspoon lemon zest
    Freshly ground black pepper
    4 1/2 pounds zucchini
    2 cloves garlic, minced
    2 teaspoons thyme, minced
    1 teaspoon rosemary, minced
    1 teaspoon sweet smoked Spanish paprika
    Cherry tomatoes (20 large or 40 small)
    2 bunches arugula
    1/2 cup crumbled feta, preferably French (about 3 ounces)
    1/2 cup pitted and chopped kalamata olives (about 3 ounces)

    Directions

    Preheat the broiler.

    To make the dressing, in a small bowl mix the vinegar, mustard, honey, and salt. Whisk in 3 tablespoons olive oil. Season with the zest and pepper.

    Using a mandoline, slice the zucchini lengthwise into 1/8-inch thick pappardelle turning the zucchini and slicing on 4 sides only until the seeds in the center are reached. Discard the centers.

    In a small bowl combine the garlic, thyme, rosemary, and paprika with the remaining tablespoon of olive oil.

    Spread the zucchini slices on a large baking sheet and brush them with the garlic mixture. Broil for 3 minutes until light brown.

    Coat the cherry tomatoes with the remaining garlic mixture in a bowl. Put them on another baking sheet and broil for 1 to 2 minutes or until some skins pop and the tomatoes get slightly caramelized.

    Put the arugula in a serving bowl and top with the zucchini and tomatoes. Drizzle with the dressing. Sprinkle the feta and olives on top and serve.

      2 tablespoons good quality balsamic vinegar
      Balsamic vinegar is not allowed on Induction... unless you buy the "real" stuff, which is at least $25 per ounce.

      1/2 teaspoon honey
      Honey???

            You can buy artifical honey at walmart (possibly elsewhere). It is a mixture of several sugar alcohols and tasts close to honey.

              Sorry about that. I'm new to this and still trying to figure out what recipes I have that fit. I did not realize balsamic vinegar did not work.

                Quick question. Is frying chicken without the flour ok? I want to try it, but I'd like to hear some feedback first.

                  Here is a recipe I make often, and I do not use flour. ALthough I do not think this is what you would actually call "FRIED CHICKEN" in the true sense of the word. But this is just how I fry my chicken.


                  I buy Fresh Chicken "Tenderloins". Keep them whole, if you cut them up into smaller pieces, they are too much trouble to handle and cook.

                  Put them in a bowl and pour some heavy whipping cream on them and move them around to coat all over. (You do not need a lot, just enough to coat)

                  Next I put them in a bowl of the grated Parmesan cheese that comes in the plastic container. Coat evenly.

                  I fry these up in butter on about a med high flame, turning only once when browned nicely on the bottom.

                  Check doneness by cutting open one of the tenderloins at its thickest part.

                  Eat plain or dip in ranch dressing. They reheat well in the microwave, so I usually make a batch to last a few days.

                    I love chicken with the skin left on and maybe a little seasoning then just deepfried.

                    In England it was only when KFC came over here that I ever knew anyone floured and breaded fried chicken, as our Fish & Chip shops just drop them in the fryer with no coating at all.
                    Wondering how to get 'most' of your net carbs from your induction veggies?

                      Thats an interesting point I hadn't thought about that. I just put my chicken in the oven and roast it, but next time I think I will drop it into the deep fat fryer.

                        In moderation, this is induction friendly. I reccomend seperating it into servings so you don't get carried away.

                        Rich Vanilla Ice Cream

                        1 egg
                        1/4 cup Splenda (or 6 packets)
                        1 1/2 cups heavy cream
                        1 TSP vanilla

                        Whisk the egg until fluffy (about 1 min) and then add Splenda). Add cream and vanilla and whisk for several minutes. "Freeze" in ice cream maker according to manufacturer's instructions.

                        Alternatively you can freeze it this way:
                        Two coffee tins, one large and one small (liquid TIGHT seals)
                        Pour the mixture into the smaller container. Place the small container in the large container, and pack with ice. Liberally add rock salt, or coarse salt. Roll around on the floor. Check the contents occasionally to add salt & ice, and also to check on the ice cream, stirring it around every 10 mins or so.

                        This makes 8, 1/2 cup servings -- 3 or 4g carbs each

                          I'm really grateful for this thread. I'm back on induction. Had great success a few years ago, but with menopause and recent surgery that has limited exercise ... well, about 10-15 lbs extra that I'd LOVE to lose somewhere!

                          I'm of course looking for great Induction recipes. However, in reviewing these recipes, it says they are for Induction, except I'd love to actually have the actual nutritional counts so I can better keep track of what I'm doing.

                          Can anyone help me with this?

                          Thanks,

                            Hi LadieSadie,

                            You can enter the information into a program like FitDay - Free Weight Loss and Diet Journal to find out the cal, carb, fat, protein.

                            Recipes vary...for example, my chicken recipe posted earlier, I can not give the info, since everytime I make it, the amounts vary, so that would not be helpful to you. And maybe a recipe has things in it you do not like, or you may want to add things to it.

                            Also, it is to your benefit to learn how to determine the carb counts in foods and recipes with whatever tools you choose to use. The more informed and educated you are in your journey, the greater your success will be.

                              I agree with Mary - to get accurate nutrition numbers you need to use your own ingredients and amounts.
                              Apart from different amounts you might be using, depending on brands of things like cream cheese etc you ingredients might have different nutrition numbers than other brands have.
