There's been some talk amongst the chefs in the groups and we decided to start a recipe thread... so if you have a nice recipe you'd like to share with others, please post it here.
First recipe
One pan nutritious chicken
4 chicken breasts
1 16 oz can chopped italian tomatos
5 cloves garlic roughly chopped
1 cup chicken stock or broth
1 1/2 cups uncooked rice( brown or white)
2 cups fresh or frozen spinach
salt and pepper( to taste)
1/2 cup feta or other cheese
In a greased baking dish, place rice on the bottom, then put the chicken breasts and sprinkle the chopped garlic, salt and pepper over them.Arrange spinach around the chicken. Pour in the whole can of tomatos over the chicken, spinach, and rice without draining and pour broth over it as well. cover with foil or lid and bake at 350 degrees for 1 hour. Remove cover and sprinkle cheese on it. Turn oven to broil and broil until cheese is lightly browned and bubbly. Enjoy
This is a nice one dish meal that has 2 servings fruit and vegetables, 1 serving starch, 2 servings meat, and 1 serving of milk. You only mess up one pan and get a complete balanced meal:)

and another
First- put 1/4 cup lemon juice, 2 Tablespoons salt, 1/3 cup salad oil, 1/4 cup chopped chives, and pepper in a bowl and wisk.
then putfield greens ( or whatever you like as a base)into your salad bowl.Then layer on chickpeas( also called garbanzo beans)
grape tomatos, and sliced cucumbers. Now sprinkle extra virgin olive oil in a frying pan on med heat and put whole cloves of garlic in. When the garlic gets slightly squishy move it to the edges of the pan and put in slices of portabello mushroom and saute until the moisture has left and the slices are darkish brown and garlic is golden brown. Transfer garlic and mushrooms( still warm) to salad, re-wisk dressing and pour over top...ENJOY

Best. Dip. Ever. Tastes just like a BLT.
*This is not even pretending to be diet food. I serve this once a year, at New Year's Eve, and begin a diet the next day. It's from allrecipes.com. I am always asked for the recipe.

1 pound bacon
1 cup mayonnaise

Here's a quick easy one. It's a bit on the spicy side but you can tone it down depending on the peppers you like.
-Jalepeno/hot Banana peppers.
-Philidelphia cream dip (your choice for flavour although I like the garlic and herbs)
-Bacon
-Slice the peppers lengthwise in half and trim just the stem off, not the top of the pepper.
-Scoop out the seeds.
-fill with cream dip.
-Wrap in bacon and use a toothpick to hold the bacon in place (pierce through the pepper, makes for handy utensils for eating too)
-Bake in an oven until bacon is cooked. (Hint, cook with cream side up or there will be none left in the pepper.)
You can tone this down by using sweet peppers. I like to cook them on a rack, keeps them out of the grease.
Use gloves if you use the hot peppers, when preparing, or don't touch your eyes afterwards (I speak from experience...)

Thought I'd post a couple of my specialties as well...
Bread-Machine Challah Bread
(Traditional Jewish Sabbath bread, but good any time. I use a bread machine to simplify the process, but my sister has hand-kneaded the dough with good results.)
Ingredients:
2 eggs
7/8 cup water (7 fluid oz)
1/2 Tablespoon salt
1/3 cup olive oil
1/3 cup honey
4 cups all purpose flour
2 teaspoons active dry yeast
Put ingredients in order listed into the bread machine. Set bread machine to dough cycle (2 lb size, if applicable). When dough cycle is complete, remove dough from machine. Divide into three equal pieces, roll each into rope the length of a cookie sheet. Braid together, tucking the ends under. Place on greased cookie sheet and cover with slightly damp cloth, allow to rise 40 minutes to 1 hour. Beat 1 egg, and brush over the top of the loaf. Bake at 350 degrees (F) for 30 to 45 minutes, until crust is a golden brown. Serve warm, with butter or olive oil for dipping, if desired.
(My apologies to anyone who grew up Jewish if I mangled this recipe. I'm working towards converting and am trying to learn a few traditional recipes along the way. I've gotten good reviews of this recipe from friends and family, it tastes like the other challah I've tried, and it's kosher. But it's just my best attempt, so again, my apologies.)
