I've taken a real interest in everything sourdough.  I really like the sourdoughhoe (She's a bit irreerent and sometimes throws in a word or two, but I love her bagels). I'm also following another girl that I'm learning a lot from.  I think it's called earlyriser.  This recipe is super yummy and easy enough. I just use jarred minced garlic, olive oil, salt, on a piece of foil in the toaster oven for about 15-20 minutes.    I love to use these bagels for sandwiches.  I only make them 140g. in weight so they're a bit smaller.

Found this on pinterest the other day and lately I've been on the lookout for healthy, quick recipes and this fit the bill.  It goes together pretty quickly and I like to put it on top of a salad to make it even healthier. 1. 1 c. white rice (I always keep already cooked rice in the freezer so it goes even quicker)           don't do this next part if your rice is already cooked but do add the lime, salt, and cilantro to your       recipe. 2. 1 lb. boneless, skinless chicken breasts cut into bite-size pieces 3. 3-4 cloves garlic, minced 4. 1 can black beans, drained 5. 1 (10 oz) can Ro-Tel (I used original...its a bit spicy at first till you put it on salad, or use mild.) 6. 1 avocado, diced  7. 2 c. corn 8. 2 c. diced bell peppers (about 3) 9. 2 c. diced onion 10.olive oil 11.1 envelope taco seasoning  While rice is cooking, cut the chicken into bite-size pieces.

I was just playing around on Pinterest again mostly looking for some healthier options or dinner that were quick to fix and found this one.  Dan gave it a thumbs up so I am putting it on the blog.  I opted not to add the bag of edamame because I'm not a fan of soy anything. You could probably add any veggie you want in addition to these. Stir-fry: 3 Tblsp. cornstarch 1/2 tsp. salt 1/2 tsp. pepper about 1.25 lbs. boneless skinless chicken breasts diced into 1-inch pieces 2 Tblsp. sesame oil 1 Tblsp. olive oil 2 heaping cups broccoli florets 1 c. red bell peppers diced small 1 c. shelled frozen edamame 2 cloves garlic finely chopped 1 c. unsalted dry-roasted whole cashews 1 c. green onions diced Sauce: 3 Tblsp. soy sauce 2 Tblsp. honey or to taste 1 Tblsp. rice vinegar 1 Tblsp.

 I'm starting to get a lot more interested in all things sourdough so when I saw this blogger make bagels with it, I was intrigued.  I've had my starter (named Mad dog) for a few years now and it's a really good one.  I found a recipe on Pinterest tonight so I tried it and the bagels were great :).  It makes 8 good size bagels weighed out to be about 158 grams each.  (I've also found it's so much easier and more accurate to use a kitchen scale).   4 c. bread flour  1 Tblsp. sugar 1 tsp. salt (or a little more)   1 c. active sourdough starter fed an bubbly 1 1/4 c. filtered water 1 Tblsp. olive oil   Boiling Solution: 8 c. water 2 Tblsp. baking soda 1 Tblsp. honey   Optional Toppings sesame seeds poppy seeds Everything Bagel Kosher salt   1.
