Chocolate Espresso Bread Pudding

Post and images by guest blogger, Rebecca White, of A Pleasant Little Kitchen.  Visit her full blog or find out more about her here.  Have you ever walked by Market Street’s bakery and thought “I want it all”? You have too? YES!! Market Street’s assortment of freshly baked breads makes any bread lover's heart skip a beat. One bread that I’ve always found beautiful is the challah bread. Challah bread is a traditional Jewish bread that is served on the Jewish Sabbath. It is a golden, light and sweet bread that is easily recognizable by its braided exterior. Typically I reach for a baguette or sourdough, but not on this occasion. I have decadent plans for this golden beauty: Chocolate Espresso Bread Pudding with homemade chocolate syrup. Challah bread is perfect for a dessert bread pudding because the bread itself is sweet. It also has an airy texture that when combined with custard (a half and half egg mixture) and baked results in an irresistible dessert. Besides chocolate, one of the other key components of this bread putting is the espresso. Instant espresso powder is used to create coffee flavor throughout the desert. Not sure where to find instant espresso? No worries! It is easily found next to the ground coffee and coffee beans at Market Street. Chocolate Espresso Bread Pudding is a warm, comforting dessert. It’s perfect for a sweet bite at lunch or after dinner. Pair with vanilla ice cream and top with a homemade chocolate syrup (or store bought if making chocolate syrup isn’t your thing). It will become a go-to dessert that everyone will love. Now, next time you walk past the array of bread at the Market Street bakery no doubt you will lock eyes on the Challah bread and think about this Chocolate Espresso Bread Pudding.   Chocolate Espresso Bread Pudding Yield: makes 6 servings   For the Bread Pudding 4 eggs 3/4 cup sugar 2 cups Lucerne half and half 1 teaspoon vanilla extract 4 tablespoons cocoa powder 2 tablespoons instant coffee 6 cups challah bread, crust removed and cubed into 1 inch pieces chocolate syrup, for topping (see recipe below) vanilla ice cream, for serving   1) Heat the oven to 350 degrees. 2) In a large bowl, whisk the eggs and sugar until well combined. Set aside. 3) In a small saucepan, warm the half and half and vanilla over low heat for 15 minutes. 4) After 10 minutes of warming the half and half, place the cocoa in a small bowl. Add 1/2 cup of warm half and half. Whisk well until the cocoa powder is fully combined to the half and half. 5) Add the cocoa slurry and the instant coffee to the half and half mixture. Stir well to combine. Continue to cook for 5 minutes. 6) Strain the cocoa half and half into a medium sized bowl. 7) While whisking the egg and sugar mixture, add a spoonful of warm cocoa half and half. Continue to whisk to prevent scrambling of the eggs. Continue this process three more times until the custard is warmed. 8) In a steady stream pour the remaining cocoa half and half into the custard, whisking continually. 9) Stir well and set aside. 10) Place the challah into a square baking pan. Pour the custard over the challah bread. Be sure that the tops of the bread are coated by the custard. Place in the oven and cook for 50 minutes, or until the custard is set. 11) Remove the bread pudding. Let cool for 5 minutes. 12) Serve with a scoop of vanilla ice cream and chocolate syrup (see recipe below).   For the Chocolate Syrup 1 cup cocoa powder pinch of salt 1 cup sugar 1 teaspoon vanilla extract 1 tablespoon light corn syrup 1 cup water   1) Place the sugar and water into a small saucepan, and make a simple syrup. Cook on low heat until the sugar has dissolved, about 10-15 minutes. Stir occasionally. 2) Combine the vanilla and salt into the simple syrup. Stir well. 3) Place the cocoa powder into a large bowl. In three batches, whisk the simple syrup into the cocoa powder. Mix thoroughly. 4) Strain the cocoa mixture back into the pan. Add corn syrup and cook over medium heat for 10 minutes. Stir occasionally. 5) Remove from the stovetop and bring to room temperature. Place in an airtight container and store in the fridge, up to three weeks. Read More

Dietitian Spotlight: Vegetarian Spicy Korean Bibimbap Bowls

People often go out to eat for Korean food, but who knew you can enjoy those delicious flavors right in your own kitchen? This recipe will satisfy your kick for Korean food. The great thing about this meal is how quickly and simply it can be made, but the best part is that this recipe is full of flavorful nutrients. A huge part of Korean food is cabbage and can be found in nearly every meal. The red cabbage in this recipe gives a peppery flavor and is a source of fiber. The vibrant purplish-red coloring is caused by flavonoids that are great antioxidants. Cabbage is also rich in vitamin C, vitamin K and vitamin A. Overall, cabbage can help to prevent chronic diseases, boost the immune system, and maintain healthy bones.         Sesame oil is also used extensively throughout Korean dishes. There are a variety of nutrients in sesame oil including unsaturated fatty acids, calcium, zinc, magnesium, and iron. The unsaturated fatty acids and magnesium can aid with cholesterol levels and blood pressure, which can benefit overall heart health. Zinc is important for skin health. The sesame oil also provides another source of antioxidants. This tasty ingredient goes beyond just cooking oil; it provides a nutty, rich flavor and many different nutritional benefits. We hope you love spicy food, because this recipe calls for Sriracha  Sriracha is made from red chili peppers which have a certain chemical that can help boost your metabolism. This kick of Sriracha is sure to also boost your taste buds and get you ready for another bite.   Vegetarian Spicy Korean Bibimbap Bowls Ingredients 2 medium zucchini, chopped 1 cup shredded carrots ¼ cup shredded red cabbage 16 oz. mushrooms ½ Tbsp. sesame oil 1 package udon noodles (2 servings) ½ Tbsp. coconut oil 2 Eggs 2 Tbsp. sriracha Instructions 1) Cook the zucchini, shredded carrots, and red cabbage in about 1½ cups of water until the vegetables have softened (but still have a little bit of crunch to them). 2) While the vegetables are cooking, sauté the mushrooms over medium heat in the sesame oil until they have reduced in size. 3) Microwave the udon noodles according to directions. Arrange each bowl with udon noodles, zucchini noodles, carrots, cabbage, and mushrooms. 4) Heat the coconut oil over medium heat until you see ripples begin to form. Lightly fry each egg, allowing the whites to fully cook. Top each bowl with an egg and sriracha. Serve and enjoy! Nutrition Information Calories: 404 Fat: 14 Carbohydrates: 106 Protein: 20 Read More

Grilled Pork Taco Bar

Post and images by guest blogger, Rebecca White, of A Pleasant Little Kitchen.  Visit her full blog or find out more about her here.  When cooking for a crowd I always take a few moments to consider the meal as a whole. I also ask myself a few questions: 1. How many people am I feeding? 2. What are my guests food preferences? 3. How can I fulfill everyone’s food cravings? 4. Will this meal make them content? 5. Will they want to try to make this at home? Welcoming others into my home is something I take seriously and am honored to do— that’s why I ask these questions. I want anyone who walks through my door to feel welcomed, loved, special and… well-fed. For my upcoming July 4th grilling menu I plan to grill Smithfield Marinated Pork Tenderloins in the form of kebabs to be used for a taco bar. The answers to those questions listed above for this 4th of July gathering would be: 1. I’m feeding a handful of people. 2. The food preferences are minimal (i.e. not very many picky eaters) with my guests. 3. There needs to be options to meet all the cravings—must have lots of taco toppings! 4. This meal will make them very happy and satisfied. 5. Absolutely yes! Anyone could totally make this at home especially with the ease and tastiness of Smithfield Marinated Pork Tenderloins. It all started when I noticed the Smithfield pork tenderloins at Market Street. These were not the average plain pork tenderloins. I noticed they were pre-marinated and there were several options. Applewood Smoked Bacon! Smoked Mesquite! Roasted Garlic and Herb! Hooooray! With Smithfield by my side, I know I can easily provide multiple options of deliciously marinated pork for my dinner guests. The variety of marinades are great which means everyone will be happy with the selection of the protein. Plus with a trusted friend like Smithfield I don’t have to worry about the outcome. I know the pork is going to be perfect. To make the grilling experience a little bit unique I opted to not just grill the pork tenderloin but to cube the tenderloin and place it on skewers with alternating vegetables. The vegetables on the kebabs will vary—red onion, asparagus and garlic or bell pepper, potato, and white onion, just to name a few combinations. This taco bar will include not only a variety of Smithfield marinated pork but also a variety of veggies. Guest can grab the skewers that have their favorite pork flavor and vegetable combination. There will also be corn tortillas, flour tortillas, salsa, guacamole, fresh onions, fresh cilantro, queso fresca and Mexican crema to finish off the tacos. Grilling with Smithfield and Market Street by my side makes for a happy and a much anticipated meal. Removing one of the most involved elements, creating several different marinades, allows me to be a more involved with the different vegetables and toppings for the tacos. Ultimately my dinner guests will feel welcomed, loved, happy and…well-fed. What a great find! Market Street and Smithfield are the perfect partners for this grilling season. Delicious fresh pork combined with quality fresh produce-- it makes my dinner-hosting grill-loving heart extremely happy. I know it will do the same for you.   Save big on the star of the show and download your digital coupon here for $3 off Smithfield Fresh Pork. Just search "Smithfield." Expires 7/10/18 Grilled Pork Taco Bar Serves 4-8 Author note: Smithfield offers a variety of marinated pork cuts and flavors that work wonderfully for this recipe. I prefer to choose 2-3 different marinated pork tenderloins to provide a variety of flavors for this meal. The marinated pork options are: roasted garlic and herb, slow smoked mesquite, applewood bacon and sweet teriyaki. Remember, the amount of vegetables used is dependent upon how many people you plan to serve and how many kebabs you plan to make. I’ve listed the vegetables that I like to use in ingredient list below. Have fun with the toppings for the tacos too! The more options there are, the more taco varieties that can be created.   Smithfield Marinated Pork Loin Filet or Tenderloin, cut into bite-sized pieces yellow onion, cut into bite-sized pieces red onion, cut into bite-sized pieces asparagus, tough ends removed and remaining pieces quartered yellow squash, cut into bite-sized pieces bell peppers, seeded and cut into large chunks small golden potatoes, halved or quartered garlic cloves, peeled flour tortillas corn tortillas salsa, for topping guacamole, for topping queso fresca, for topping Mexican crema, for topping yellow onions, diced, for topping chopped fresh cilantro, for topping   1) Heat the grill to 350-400 degrees. 2) Assemble the kebabs. I prefer four pieces of meat per kebab with two to three veggie combinations. For example: onion, asparagus, pork, bell pepper. 3) Place the kebabs on the grill. Cook for 6-7 minutes per side, or until the pork reaches 140 degrees. 4) Remove the kebabs and place on a rimmed baking sheet. Cover with foil and let rest for 10 minutes. 5) Heat up the tortillas in a skillet, microwave or oven. 6) Serve the kebabs with the tortillas and an assortment of toppings. Read More

Tangy Mini Bell Pepper Salad

Bell peppers are one of the most versatile vegetables. They come with a range of flavors, nutrients, and varying amounts of heat. Bell peppers can be enjoyed raw, cooked or added to a dish. If you can’t already tell, they are definitely a food to keep in your refrigerator! They make for a heart healthy addition to any plate providing vibrant color, nutrients, fiber and antioxidants. They are available throughout the year and peak from August through September. Vitamin C is one of the main nutrients found in bell peppers, and by eating a cup, you receive 100% of your recommended daily intake. Vitamin C supports tissues in the body like skin, blood vessels, bones, and connective tissues. The other vitamins and minerals found in bell peppers vary depending on the color of the pepper. Today’s recipe, Tangy Mini Bell Pepper Salad, is nutritious, light and crisp - making it a great side dish during these summer months. Many salads are healthy, but there are definitely some that are not. Being dietitians, we are very careful at choosing our salads and want to help you be mindful as well! With salads it is easy to add a lot of unhealthy items, making them high in fat, calories and sugar. In fact, some salads can be worse for you than fried fast food meals. The items to avoid include creamy dressings, high fat meats, fried pieces, and large amounts of cheese. In large quantities, these can alter a salad into an unhealthy option. Avoiding these items on a salad can keep it nutritious and fresh, which is perfect for the summer! Share this recipe with family and friends, and stay posted for our next recipe!   Tangy Mini Bell Pepper Salad Ingredients: 1 lb sweet multicolored mini bell pepper ½ medium purple onion, thinly sliced 2 Tbsp Fresh dill, chopped 2½ Tbsp white vinegar 3 Tbsp extra virgin olive oil ½ tsp garlic salt, or to taste Pinch of black pepper   Directions 1) Remove the tops and seeds from bell peppers; cut them in half lengthwise and cut into thin strips. Transfer sliced bell peppers to a large mixing bowl. 2) Thinly slice onion and add it to the bowl along with chopped fresh dill. 3) Combine vinegar with extra virgin olive oil, garlic salt and pepper. Whisk the dressing together with a fork. Pour dressing over salad ingredients and stir well to combine. Read More

Cherry Almond Blue Steak Salad with Cherry-Balsamic Vinaigrette

What goes great with a sunny afternoon? This fresh and fruity salad! In recognition of Celiac Disease Awareness month, we’ve created this gluten-free Cherry Almond Blue Steak Salad with Cherry-Balsamic Vinaigrette. One of the best things about this recipe is that it requires fresh, delicious cherries which are now in season. Cherries are full of antioxidants which contain cancer-preventative compounds and reduce inflammation. They are also a good source of vitamin C. From the dark colored spinach which contains lots of vitamins and minerals to the chopped almonds which provide you with monounsaturated fat (the kind that lowers bad cholesterol), this salad is jam packed with healthy vitamins and minerals in every ingredient. The made-from-scratch balsamic vinaigrette is super easy to make, full of flavor and contains less calories than bottled salad dressings (which may contain gluten). Don’t be fooled by how fancy this salad looks, there are less than 10 ingredients and it will only take about 30 minutes make! This recipe is delicious, but the health benefits are the “cherry” on top!   Cherry Almond Blue Steak Salad with Cherry-Balsamic Vinaigrette Serves 4   Ingredients 1 1/2 – 2lbs Rancher's Reserve steak (chuck eye, ribeye, filet, strip) extra virgin olive oil, salt, and pepper 12oz baby spinach 2 cups cherries, pitted and halved 1/2 cup sliced almonds 3oz blue cheese, crumbled   For the Cherry-Balsamic Vinaigrette: 1/4 cup cherries, pitted and halved 2 Tablespoons balsamic vinegar 1 Tablespoon fresh lemon juice salt and pepper 2 teaspoons honey 1/4 cup + 2 Tablespoons extra virgin olive oil   Directions 1. Combine all ingredients for Cherry-Balsamic Vinaigrette except extra virgin olive oil in a food processor or blender then pulse to coarsely chop. Slowly stream in olive oil while processing until smooth. Set aside. 2. Rub both sides of Rancher's Reserve steaks with extra virgin olive oil then season liberally with salt and pepper. Grill over medium-high heat to your preferred level of doneness. Alternatively you could cook steaks on the stove top. Let steaks rest for 5-7 minutes before thinly slicing against the grain. 3. Divide spinach between plates then top with sliced steak, cherries, blue cheese, and sliced almonds. Drizzle with Cherry Balsamic Vinaigrette then serve. Read More

Dietitian Spotlight: Avocado Egg Salad Roll Ups

The basic requirements for any packed lunch: quick, easy, filling and tasty. These Avocado Egg Salad Roll Ups check all the boxes! The classic egg salad takes an unexpected turn as the mayonnaise is replaced with buttery avocado and creamy Greek yogurt. Quick: For reduced stress in the morning, try boiling the eggs early in the week so they are ready for slicing. Need it even quicker? Pick up a package of boiled eggs from Market Street and save yourself 20 minutes. Another time-saver is to use the pre-chopped/packaged parsley available in our produce department. Easy: The hardest part about the recipe is all the dicing. This is another part of the recipe that can be done before the week starts. Chop up all the veggies before hand so all you have to do is throw it together.  Filling: We know that fat, fiber and protein are what keep our stomachs full. The egg and Greek yogurt offer protein, the avocado offers heart healthy fats and fiber, and the whole wheat tortillas can boost the fiber even further. Look for tortillas with at least 3 grams of fiber, but you may want to find some tortillas which contain 10 or more grams of fiber - for maximum fullness. Tasty: The first ingredient is avocado so the tasty part is a given, however, adding the lemon juice (which also keeps the avocado from turning brown) and fresh veggies will elevate this egg salad to gourmet. Lastly, grab some carrot sticks (or some snack crackers for the kids!) and a side of fruit for a lunch that will keep your stomach and taste buds singing well past that 3 o’clock slump!   Avocado Egg Salad Roll Ups  Ingredients 1 avocado-mashed 4-5 hard-boiled eggs chopped in small pieces 1 Tablespoon fresh lemon juice 2-4 Tablespoons plain Greek yogurt (start with 2 and add more if the salad seems to dry) 1 green onion-thinly sliced 1 Tablespoon red onion-diced (or more to taste) 1 ½-2 Tablespoons fresh parsley-chopped ⅛  teaspoon black pepper ¼ teaspoon salt (or more to taste) 3-4 whole wheat flour tortillas (8 or 10 inch diameter)   Instructions 1) In a large bowl combine all ingredients (except tortillas) and stir with a wooden spoon until evenly blended. 2) Spread the mixture over tortilla and roll up tightly. Repeat with remaining salad. I had enough filling for 3 10 inch diameter tortillas. 3) Slice with serrated knife into ½- 3/4 inch slices. You can slice them immediately or refrigerate until firm (about 30 mins). It’s easier to slice when chilled. 4) Store in the fridge in an airtight container until ready to serve. Read More

Strawberry Basil Grilled Cheese with Red Pepper Jelly

  The dietitians at Market Street have been moving through the color wheel this year, and we’re continuing on with white and brown foods in April. People typically consider these boring and drab colors, especially when it comes to food. This could not be farther from the truth--white and brown foods have great health benefits! For example, they contain flavonoids and are high in fiber. This recipe for Strawberry Basil Grilled Cheese with Red Pepper Jelly is the perfect combination of white and brown foods.    What’s better than a grilled cheese?! It’s simplicity and speediness is hard to beat. The crunchy, golden brown sides and warm, gooey cheese beckon even those with the best of resolve. But with an average sandwich containing close to 500 calories and 10 grams of saturated fat, it doesn’t make sense for those watching their waistline. With a few tweaks, enjoying a grilled cheese is still entirely possible. Here are some of the best ways to include grilled cheese without the post grilled guilt.   Include loads of flavor: It keeps your taste buds distracted. With sweet and spicy red pepper jelly or honey, juicy strawberries, fresh basil and peppery arugula your mouth will not miss that extra bit of cheese.   Include a variety of textures: from the chewy bread, soft cheese, smooth jelly and crunchy greens every bite will be an adventure. TIP: to avoid “frying” your grilled cheese in a pan of butter, use a panini press or place another pan on top of your grilled cheese to get that satisfying crunch without the extra calories.   Include a rainbow of colors: You’ve heard it before, we eat with our eyes. This month our goal is to help you Color your Basket white and brown. We’ve got that covered with the goat cheese and bread but adding a few pops of color can take a monochromatic meal and make it kaleidoscopic.   This gourmet grilled cheese meets all the criteria. Here’s to a delicious, colorful and figure friendly sandwich.    Strawberry Basil Grilled Cheese with Red Pepper Jelly Ingredients: Yield: 3 sandwiches   1 (4-oz) goat cheese, feta cheese or queso fresco, softened 6 whole grain bread slices 4 ½ teaspoons red pepper jelly or honey ¾ cup sliced fresh strawberries 15 large fresh basil leaves 1 1/2 cups fresh watercress, arugula or spinach Salt and pepper to taste   Directions 1)Spread goat cheese (or cheese of choice) on 1 side of 3 bread slices. 2)Spread pepper jelly (or honey) on 1 side of remaining bread slices; layer with strawberries, basil leaves, and watercress. 3) Sprinkle with salt and pepper to taste. 4) Top with remaining bread, goat cheese sides down.  5) Cook sandwiches in a large, lightly greased nonstick skillet over medium heat 2 to 3 minutes on each side or until golden brown.   Read More

Winter Citrus Salad with Honey Lime Dressing

Post and images by guest blogger, Rebecca White, of A Pleasant Little Kitchen.  Visit her full blog or find out more about her here.  I spy with my little eye something round in the Market Street produce department. I spy with my little eye something orange, yellow and green. I spy with my eye something I look forward to every winter season— that which is beautifully colored and bursting with juicy flavor. You’re correct! I spy winter citrus that’s waiting to be bundled up and taken home to be made into a delicious healthy treat. I love winter. It’s my favorite season not only because of the lower temperatures and celebratory holidays, but also because of the flavorful fruit. It is a season of apples and citrus. A walk past the fruit stalls at Market Street in January is in itself a celebration of winter fruit-- it’s bursting with colors and fresh scents of citrus. Fresh citrus bursts with flavor and is incredibly versatile in the kitchen. Wondering what can be done with ripe citrus besides peel and eat it? Let me help. Use the: zest for dressings, marinades, or custards juice to flavor cocktails, syrups or desserts entire citrus as an aromatic when roasting poultry, fish or even mulled wine and ciders. as a centerpiece when decorating a table or side tables I’m pretty sure you’ve got the gist of the greatness of citrus. Winter citrus is not only tasty but it’s also versatile and waiting to be utilized in your kitchen. I propose using the citrus in such a way that showcases the best elements of each variety AND creates a stunning showpiece. I give you the Winter Citrus Salad. Slice the selected varieties of citrus, arrange in a pattern and drizzle with a homemade of dressing that combines the tartness of fresh lime juice with the sweetness of lemon zest and the stickiness of organic raw honey. Stir in organic mint leaves and serve. Plan to add another celebration to your winter calendar this year— Citrus Season. Winter Citrus Salad with Honey Lime Dressing   servings vary Author note: There are no amounts listed on the fruits. This is to let you add the preferred quantity of whichever citrus is your favorite. If you prefer chunks of fruit opposed to slices of fruit, feel free to prepare the fruit according to your preference. The dressing may need to be doubled depending on how much fruit is used.   Ingredients Oranges Grapefruit Mandarins Tangerines Lemon Limes pomelos (if available) honey lime dressing (recipe below)   Directions 1. Slice each citrus to your preferred thickness. Arrange on a platter and drizzle with honey lime dressing. 2. Serve chilled or at room temperature.   for the Honey Lime Dressing Ingredients 2 tablespoons honey juice of 1/2 a lime zest of 1 lemon pinch salt 2 tablespoons fresh mint leaves, finely chopped   Directions 1. Place all ingredients into a small bowl.

Family Meals Month: Turkey Zucchini Meatballs Sandwiches

Turkey Zucchini Open-Face Meatball Sandwiches Serves 6 Ingredients 1 lb. ground turkey Salt and pepper 1 egg 1 cup zucchini, shredded 1/3 cup bread crumbs 1 Tbsp. Italian seasoning 3 Hoagie rolls (cut in half) Newman's Own All Natural Marinara sauce 1/2 cup Mozzarella cheese, shredded Fresh basil Step by Step:  Start off by shredding your zucchini (a cheese grater works fine) so it’s ready to go. You will also need to pre-heat the oven to 350 degrees. Then in a large mixing bowl, add all the ingredients (except for the cheese, basil and marinara sauce) and mix with hands until it’s all well combined.Next you’ll want to form your meat mixture into desired sized meatballs and place them on a baking sheet (about 2 inches apart from each other). Bake them for about 15-20 minutes, depending on the size of meatballs. It is ideal to take the temperature from the middle of your meatball to ensure that they are done cooking (turkey needs to be cooked to 165 degrees Fahrenheit).Once the meatballs are done, remove them from the oven and cut each of them in half. It is optional to toast your hoagie rolls while waiting for the meatballs to finish, if desired.   Use one side of the (toasted) hoagie roll, place meatballs (flat side down) on the roll and top with warm marinara sauce, shredded mozzarella cheese and fresh basil.This recipe will make enough meatballs for more than 6 sandwiches depending on the size you roll them.
