Celebrate the family with your own Sunday Supper. Sunday Supper is one of our favorite ways to bring the family together! We offer the following suggestion, and hope you enjoy it as much as we do!
I am not a vegetarian, haven't even considered it. But I am a child of the 60's having grown up in Marin County California, and as such, I am attracted to ideas or ideals of a different nature. Having been exposed to the colorful world around me at a very impressionable age, I came away with what I consider to be the best of it all. Vegetarian cookbooks seem to fall into that category, for me; a carnivore.
Also, they usually have great whole grain baked goods and main dish recipes that are full of vegetables. Both of these items, using more whole grain and eating more vegetables, are on my goal list and I hope to become an accomplished cook for all things whole grain and of course lots and lots of vegetables, the fountain of health!
This was another cookbook I was able to pick up for a song, at the local thrift store. The recipe that caught my eye right away was the, Maple Cornbread Muffins. We had these for breakfast this morning, along with bacon and eggs. The maple flavor is mild, but it is a good recipe for a mostly whole grain baked good sweetened with a natural sweetener.
Best of all these are really good, but they are especially good with raspberry jam! While I try very hard to make a recipe exactly as written the first time, I can tell you that my next batch will be 100% whole grain.
They would also be great along side a bowl of soup, chili or a salad.
Maple Cornbread Muffins
adapted from: Horn of the Moon Cookbook
400-degree oven
1 c whole wheat pastry flour
3/4 c all-purpose flour (you may use 100% whole grain if you wish)
2/3 c cornmeal
1 T baking powder
1/2 t salt
1/3 c real maple syrup
3/4 c milk ( I almost forgot this ingredient, you can tell; it is not in the photo!)
1/2 c butter - melted and cooled
Whisk together all the dry ingredients in a large bowl. Beat eggs, syrup, and milk together, beat in the butter. Combine wet and dry ingredients.
Spoon evenly into 12 prepared muffin tins. Bake 20 minutes or until golden.
Makes 12.

DeleteOne more comment... I just reserved that cookbook through our local library. :) Thank you for the recommendation. I am not a vegetarian, either, but we don't use a lot of meat. Just some. Speaking of vegetables, here is a post I did this morning that you might find interesting: http://simplyhomemaking60.blogspot.com/2017/05/are-you-tired-of-tips-yet-saving-salad.html
ReplyDeleteHi Yolanda, I noticed your post in my RSS feed, a perfect solution! We do not eat a lot of standard lettuces instead going for mixed greens of all kinds so this tip is one we shall use. We also have what we call "Salad Eggs" where the dressed salad is place on a slice of toast, then a fried or poached egg is placed on top, a delicious lunch dish. Thanks for stopping by!
DeleteYou can't go wrong with maple syrup, right? Those mufiins look so yummy.

Your right! We sweeten a lot of our foods with Maple syrup.
DeleteI have that cookbook! I haven't looked at it in years. The muffins look yummy.
ReplyDeleteThey are not too sweet like a lot of recipes that call for the pancake version.
DeleteThese sound so good! I'm going to have to add them to the menu.
ReplyDeleteThanks, I hope you enjoy them.
DeleteCornbread is a staple here at the cottage and we will love your recipe! Hope you are having a great day and thanks so much for sharing with Full Plate Thursday!
