Recipe Challenge... Round 1

Here comes the first of my Recipe challenges - the fun game whereby i tell you all what's in my cupboard, and you helpful audience will provide me with endless and exciting recipes so my wifey comes home from MIT with something other than pasta & pesto on her plate!

This week, my wife has just come out of hospital from a recent attack of HSP - this means she cant have anything that may aggrivate her stomach... (that's the real reason for this post by the way...)

So.. Round 1!

I have:

Collard greens
fresh chillis
Red Onion
Bread Flour
Pasta
Cream Cheese
Cheddar Cheese
Lots of spices
Talapia fillets
potatoes
Tinned tomatos
lentils
kidney beans
forzen brocoli
frozen mixed berries
.... beer, of course.

So - go go gogogo!!

Can your wife have bread? If so how about Jamie's recipe for English Onion soup?

Re: Recipe Challenge... Round 1

I am assuming Talapia is a fish. Perhaps parcels of fish with Chillies, Onion & Spices. Potato Bake with a really cheesey sauce. Steamed Broccolli on the side. Starters, mini vegie pizzas, with cream cheese instead of tomato sauce, with greens & Red Onion, and also add some brocolli and Cheddar. Bread flour to make pizza bases. Spicy Tomato & Lentil Soup. How did I go?

Re: Recipe Challenge... Round 1

Ah, i should have been more specific.

Basically - my wife has a condition called HSP (Henoch Schonlein Purpura). it's typically a kids disease and normally nothing to worry about - but when adults get it, it can be really bad. She's been in hospital twice now (over christmas too which was a bummer) and when she gets out, she has to stay away from spicy food, alcohol - anything that may lead to a highly active stomach.

Talapia is a fish, yarrrrrrrrrr, like the pirates eat. Mmmmmm English Onion Soup..... i am a fan of that recipe... And mini veg pizzas with cream cheese.... mmm......... yum

I think then, tonights din dins will be Mini veg pizzas with an Onion soup - but i need to make the two balance...... so i'm going to make the pizzas nice and light by having a puff pastry base, some cream cheese and fresh tomatoes with some rocket and lemon on top.

Thanks! Round 2 will be soon, i'm sure!
