Easy Sourdough Bread with Walnuts

By -

I made this loaf of bread in my bread-maker, and adapted it with things that I like in bread!  You could add whatever you wanted, or just have it plain.

 It is a 1 kg size, and I generally slice it and then put the slices individually in the freezer.  This way there is no wastage, and I just take out one piece at a time, and it is always fresh.

 I used Laucke bread mix as they have the European style bread, and I can add other things to many of their mixes, and get an excellent result.

 Preparation Time: 5 minutes
Cooking Time: Varies
Makes: About 15 slices

 Ingredients
I packet Laucke sourdough rye bread mix
Handful of walnuts
Sunflower and/or Pumpkin seeds

 Instructions
Follow your bread-maker instructions to make rye bread.

 Add the nuts and seeds as per instructions - I put small seeds in with the mixture and larger ones.  I also put walnuts in the special holder that my bread-maker has for larger items.

 You could also add other things as well, including garlic powder, grated cheese, LSA, caraway seeds, pumpkin seeds, or vary the nuts.

Turn out the loaf, and allow it to cool slightly.

Slice thickly, or however you like it and eat!  It is beautiful when luke warm.

POTATO SALAD WITH PEANUT BUTTER

Potato salad makes a perfect side dish, or snack, however I ate this one with bread and some raw salad as a main meal. I often eat potato salad and you will find several recipes on my blog for different versions of potato salad. I like anything with potatoes in it and my recipes will reflect this - I far prefer potatoes to the sweeter, more healthy sweet potatoes! Potato salads are also great to take on a picnic with some thickly sliced buttered bread! This recipe has no mayonnaise in it like a conventional one, and is a nutty version of a conventional potato salad. Once again, I have used one of my favourites, peanut butter and I now always buy the "no added sugar" version of this amazing ingredient. Preparation Time: 10 minutes Cooking Time: 10 minutes Makes: 3 servings, as a main Ingredients 3 medium potatoes 3 tbsp crunchy peanut butter (I used a natural one which is not as sweet as supermarket ones) ½ tbsp whole grain mustard ½ tbsp vinegar 1 tbs

Raw Banana Chocolate Pudding - Healthy and Oh So Delicious!

Raw is currently the rage in cooking!  I have made some interesting recipes, though I have to admit some of them have failed! It is not so easy to get the right quantities of ingredients so that the sweet or dessert will not fall apart. I make a lot of bliss balls, as currently I am not eating much with refined sugar in them, and most of these raw desserts have no added processed sugars. This one also has chia seeds in it.  I love the texture of these seeds, and they are so easy to use in a variety of sweets and puddings.  They are also supposedly another of the new "super foods".  Their health properties include such things as Omega-3, antioxidants, fibre, iron and calcium.  They also contain some protein and are versatile in that they can be eaten both cooked or raw.  However they should be added to another food or soaked before eating them. Raw foods are the latest health craze and many of them use obscure ingredients.  However this recipe uses ones you will poss

Prawns and Chorizo on Wilted Spinach

This is a one pot recipe that can be served for any occasion as a meal, or even as an accompaniment to something else. I have added a hint of chili making it slightly spicy, however this can be left out if you are making it for the whole family, as it is still very tasty with the flavours of chorizo, prawns and vegetables. I like food that has a bit of a "kick" in it, and often add chili or a hot sauce to recipes I am making.  I also have fresh chilis on hand often as a friend grows these and has an abundance of them. This recipe is served on a bed of wilted spinach and is a balanced meal having the vegetables and prawns all together.  I hate washing up, so I love to make recipes that use only one pot! Spinach is another vegetable I generally have growing in my garden, as it is very easy to grow most of the year round.  Spinach also complements many other ingredients including both vegetarian meals, and meat meals.  It is also high in antioxidants and minerals, and ha
