Zucchini Mustard Chicken Burgers

This low GI recipe has been adapted from a recipe in Michelle Trute’s ‘cooking with conscience book 2’ which focuses on low-fat, low GI, easily prepared food. In making this, I processed the garlic and zucchini and used a small amount of oil to panfry the patties in a non-stick pan, and added a dollop of tzaziki on top of the burgers. Zaar would not allow me to include tzatziki as an ingredient, so I’ve included Greek yoghurt which is what I’d use if I had no tzatziki on hand. If you haven’t tried Greek yoghurt before, it’s much creamier than other yoghurts. And if you want a good recipe for tzatziki, I recommend Ravenseyes’ Recipe #306901 or Recipe #157176. 160 grams of ground chicken = just over 5 ounces of ground chicken.

Zucchini and Basil Soup

A quick-to-prepare, low fat, inexpensive and yummy soup, adapted from a recipe I found in the Australian magazine ‘New Idea’. Not sure exactly when, but I think from 2005; it’s one I cut out of the magazine some time ago, and have made several times since then. Like most soup recipes, it’s extremely verasatile: you can add other vegetables that you have on hand that need to be used. I’ve added baby spinach leaves that needed to be used, and on one occasion, I added a packet of lentils. If you add other vegetables, you will probably need to add more stock. BTW, 750g = 1½ pounds.

Low-fat Zucchini Slice

A light & healthy snack or side dish – great if you have an abundance of zucchinis. Omit bacon for a vegetarian option.

Quick BBQ Zucchini

Another quick and tasty way to do vegetables on the BBQ. No need to measure ingredients but don’t go overboard on the herbs.
