Beef Lentil Soup

9/1/2020

Made a red lentil beef soup for dinner. Makes enough for 8 generous bowls.

Ingredients:
1 pack beef stew meat (approximately 2 lbs)
1 red onion
Pack lentils
Minced garlic
1 fire roasted red bell pepper
1 lemon ( the zest and juice)
Bag matchstick carrots
Can stew tomatoes
Small container diced celery
2 bay leaves
Ground cumin
Coriander
Pinch pink Himalayan salt
Mrs Dash original
Paprika
1 1/2 carton organic low sodium vegetable broth
Olive oil (to brown the meat)

First I put the olive oil in the Foodi, on sauté setting to brown the meat. Add seasoning and start adding all veggies. Lastly add enough broth to cover everything (you’ll have to add a little bit afterwards as it’ll be really thick but don’t overfill the Foodi as the lentils will expand too). Add some zest of lemon and the juice of it.

Switched to pressure cooking for 50 minutes. I did a quick release, nothing came out the top, or I would’ve switched to natural release. Add about a cup more broth. Take out the bay leaves.
With an immersion blender I did a few pulses to break up a few lentils to get a nicer consistency but still leave it chunky enough.

Recipe and pictures by Wendy S. Trudeau. Cooked in the Ninja Foodi.

I had some leftover rice to use up.
So I made my version of a jambalaya.
I sauteed chopped onion, red,yellow and orange peppers, celery and tomatoes. Then added some cut up andouli sausage, oregano, cayenne pepper, black pepper, paprika, chicken broth and tomato puree.
Mixed it all up until everything was nicely cooked. Then added the rice and some pre cooked shrimp sauteed on low until the rice and shrimp were hot.

And since I still have 854 calories available to me today. I'm having seconds 😍

Recipe and pictures by Wendy S. Trudeau. Prepared in the Ninja Foodi.

Soup (creamy mushroom spinach and cheese tortellini ) and sandwich (salami, ham, mozzarella, pepper jack, parmesan, arugala, oregano and mayo)
I air crisped the bread for a few minutes and then air crisped the sandwich to melt the cheese.
For the soup I air crisped the mushrooms and onions in butter and olive oil at 390* for 15 minutes. During that time I added garlic and thyme. Towards the end I added a little flour once everything was done I added chicken broth. I switched to saute setting and brought it to a boil and added the tortellini and spinach.

Ground Turkey, Broccoli and Wild Rice

Made a rice dish this evening. First I pressure cooked half a bag of Lundberg’s wild rice for 18 minutes in the Foodi and did quick pressure release. Put that aside in a bowl.
Cleaned the Foodi pot and switched it to sauté on high and browned a pack of ground turkey in it, adding garlic, half container of pico de gallo and a tbsp of sambal oelek (Indonesian chili paste; so you can use something else spicy like cayenne pepper or other peppers). When that was done, added a bag and a half of frozen broccoli florets, cook until warm, put the half the rice in (I’m using the other half for meal later this week), sprinkled with Parmesan cheese and switched the Foodi to broil for 10 minutes and done.

We weren’t extremely hungry this evening so made an appetizer for dinner: stuffed mushrooms.

Ingredients:
1 can lump crab meat
Alouette spinach and artichoke cheese spread
1 tsp reduced sodium Worcestershire sauce
DAK’s Italian Blast seasoning 1/2 tsp
2 stalks green onion
1 small tub baby Portobello mushrooms
Juice of 1 lemon
Panko whole wheat bread crumbs
Sartori Parmesan cheese
3 green olives with pimento
Spray olive oil

First I drained the liquid out of the can of crab meat and then put the crab in a bowl. Finely chopped green onion, the olives and squeezed in lemon juice, added seasoning and half the container of Alouette and about 1/2 cup of the Panko. Set aside in the fridge.

Then I cut the stems off the mushrooms and cleaned out the gills. Put them on the Ninja plate and stuffed them with above mixture, about a tbsp per mushroom. Then sprinkled some Parmesan cheese on top, sprayed some olive oil over it and air fried in the Ninja Foodi for 20 minutes (no preheat) at 375F.
