Sweet Cinnamon Zucchini Bread

3 cups all-purpose flour
1 teaspoon salt
1 teaspoon soda
1 tablespoon cinnamon
¼ teaspoon baking powder

6 organic egg whites, beaten light and foamy
½ cup canola oil
1 ½ cups brown sugar
2 cups grated unpeeled zucchini
2 teaspoons vanilla

Preheat oven to 325F.

Whisk dry ingredients with a metal whisk until thoroughly blended. In a large bowl beat remaining ingredients well with an electric mixer.

Add dry ingredients to wet with a few swift strokes by hand just until well blended. Pour batter into two non-stick loaf pans sprayed with cooking oil. Bake for about 1 hour or until a toothpick inserted into the center of the loaf comes out clean. Cool on racks.

Mushroom, Crab and Dill Omelets

2 organic egg whites
¼ teaspoon dillweed
2/3 cup finely chopped fresh mushrooms
1 tablespoon finely chopped fresh onion
2 tablespoons crab meat
French or sourdough toast for serving
In a small bowl combine egg whites with dill, whisking until lightly frothy. In a small nonstick skillet sprayed with cooking oil sauté the mushrooms and onions until tender and liquid from mushrooms evaporates. Transfer mushrooms and onions to a small bowl and mix with crab meat.

Wipe clean the skillet with a paper towel, spray with cooking oil, and heat over medium. Add egg mixture and immediately top with filling ingredients, forming a narrow line of filling across the center of the omelet. When edges of the omelet are slightly crisp, carefully roll omelet up from one side with a rubber spatula to completely enclose filling, turn omelet over, and cook on other side for an additional 1-2 minutes. Serve immediately with the toast.

Potato Latkes

¼ cup vegetable oil
4 baking potatoes
1 egg
¼ cup all-purpose flour
½ cup onions, finely diced
½ teaspoon salt
½ teaspoon black pepper
1 tablespoon chopped parsley
Wash and peel the potatoes. Grate the potatoes into a mixing bowl. Press firmly on the grated potatoes to remove excess water. Add the egg, flour, diced onions, salt and pepper and mix thoroughly.
Preheat a large non-stick skillet over medium high heat. Add the olive oil to the pan. Wait for the oil to become hot before adding the pancakes. Drop approximately 2 tbs. of the mixture per pancake into the hot oil.
Fry the pancakes for 3-4 minutes per side. Remove them from the oil when they have become golden in color and have a crispy texture. Serve the pancakes with a dollop of soy sour cream substitute. Garnish with the chopped parsley.

Easy Gluten-Free Salmon Fritata

4 eggs
6 ounce can salmon, drained
14 ounces frozen corn kernels
1 onion, halved and then sliced
2 large tomatoes, chopped
1 bell pepper, chopped
several sprigs fresh mint or basil, chopped
freshly ground black pepper
herb salt
1 teaspoon olive oil

In a heavy frying pan, heat the olive oil and cook the chopped onion till it softens. Add the corn, salmon, tomatoes and bell pepper. Stir to combine but don't be too vigorous, you don't want the salmon mashed -- try to keep it in small pieces. Sprinkle with pepper, herb salt and chopped mint.

Beat the eggs lightly and pour over the mixture. Cook at very low heat until the eggs are cooked, which will be about 12 minutes.
Serve with fresh green salad.

Lactose-Free Pizza

Tomato Sauce
Pre-made Pizza Crust
Soy mozzarella cheese (shredded)
Soy parmesan cheese
Your favorite toppings

Top pizza crust with sauce followed by parmesan cheese, toppings, and finally mozzarella cheese.

Bake plain crust for 10 minutes at 400º F or until cheese is melted and crust is golden brown.

Options: Before you add the sauce and toppings to the crust, take some of the shredded cheese and place it on the perimeter of the dough.  Then fold the dough over the cheese as to form a "pouch", but still leaving open surface area available for toppings.
