Luscious Lemon Drop Smoothies Food

LUSCIOUS LEMON DROP SMOOTHIES

Steps:

• Cook broccoli as directed on bag. Rinse with cold water until cooled. Drain.
• In blender, place 1/4 cup of the cooked broccoli and remaining ingredients. (Cover and refrigerate remaining broccoli for another use.) Cover; blend on high speed about 30 seconds or until smooth.
• Pour into 2 glasses. Serve immediately.

LUSCIOUS LEMON SNAPS

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350 degrees F ( 175 degrees C ). Grease cookie sheets.
• In a medium bowl, stir together the flour, sugar, baking soda, salt, and lemon zest. Make a well in the center and fill it with the oil, lemon juice, and vanilla. Stir everything together until it forms a dough. Alternate method: Put everything into the food processor and blend until dough forms.
• Drop cookie dough by teaspoonfuls, about 2 inches apart, onto the prepared cookie sheet. Bake for 10 to 12 minutes in the preheated oven. Edges should be golden brown. For a softer cookie, bake for only 7 minutes. Cool on racks, and store in an airtight container.

LEMON SMOOTHIE

• Add all the ingredients to a blender. Blend on high until well combined.

BERRY-LICIOUS LEMON DROP

Steps:

• Put lemon wedges and strawberries in a shaker and muddle well. Set aside.
• Combine powdered drink mix with 6 ounces (3/4 cup) of water in a glass and stir to dissolve. Transfer to the shaker.
• Add vodka to the shaker and fill with ice. Shake vigorously and strain into the glass. (If the berries get stuck in the strainer, simply remove them and continue straining.) Enjoy!

LUSCIOUS LEMON SQUARES

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350 degrees F. For the crust: In a food processor, blend ingredients until they resemble coarse meal. Press mixture into the bottom of a 13 by 9-inch pan. Bake until set and golden, about 20 minutes. Cool. For the filling: In a bowl, beat eggs, sugar and lemon juice together. Add flour and baking powder, blending only long enough to incorporate. Pour filling into baked crust and bake until set, about 25 minutes. Cool. Dust with powdered sugar before cutting. Cut into squares.

Steps:

• Mix all ingredients (except the reserved pie filling & powdered sugar).
• Drop by tablespoon onto a non-stick cookie sheet.
• Bake at 350°F for 10 - 12 minutes or until done.
• Bottoms of the cookies should not get too dark--light brown is good.
• Let cookies cool completely.
• Mix powdered sugar with enough lemon pie filling to make icing yellow, or do like I do and add some yellow food coloring, then spread over the cooled cookie.
• ENJOY!

LUSCIOUS LEMON DRIZZLE CAKE

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 180°C (350°F/Gas 4). Line the bottom of a well-oiled 23 x 13 x 7.5cm (9 x 5 x 3in) loaf tin with baking parchment.
• Put the eggs and sugar in the bowl of the food processor and process for 2 minutes, scraping the sides down once with a rubber spatula. Take off the lid and drop spoonfuls of the soft butter or margarine on top of this mixture, together with the lemon zest, then pulse just until it disappears. The mixture should now resemble mayonnaise.
• Add the flour, milk and salt, cover and pulse just until the mixture is smooth in texture and even in colour, scraping the sides down with a rubber spatula if necessary. Do not over-beat or the cake will be tough.
• Spoon the cake mixture into the prepared tin and bake for 45 minutes, until golden brown on top and firm to the touch. Remove from the oven and stand the tin on a cooling rack. To make the syrup, gently heat the sugar and lemon juice in a small saucepan, stirring until a clear syrup is formed, about 3 minutes. Do not boil.
• Prick the warm cake all over with a fork, then gently pour the syrup over it, until it has been completely absorbed.
• Leave until cool, then carefully ease the cake from the baking tin and remove the baking parchment.
• Just before serving, sift a little more icing sugar on the top. Serve in generous slices.
