SOUTHWESTERN CORN AND HOMINY SAUTE (WW CORE)



Southwestern Corn and Hominy Saute (Ww Core) image

I am one of those people who likes hominy, particularly in Southwestern soups and stews. Came across this side dish in a new Weight Watchers cookbook and decided that it would soon be making an appearance on my dinner table.

Provided by justcallmetoni

Categories     Corn

Time 18m

Yield 4 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 12

2 medium poblano chiles
1 tablespoon vegetable oil
1 small red onion, chopped
2 garlic cloves, finely chopped
1/2 teaspoon cumin
1/2 teaspoon epazote or 1/2 teaspoon oregano
1 (15 ounce) can hominy, drained
1 (10 ounce) bag frozen corn
salt
3 tablespoons chopped fresh cilantro
1 1/2 tablespoons lime juice, freshly squeezed
1 lime, cut into wedges

Steps:

  • Remove the frozen corn from the freezer to begin defrosting.
  • To prepare the Poblano chiles, place them directly over gas flame on your stove. Allow the skin to char and blister before turning using long tongs (or well padded fingers). Once all sides are charred, about five minutes, toss the peppers in a resealable bag and close. Set aside about ten minutes to allow the heat to steam the chiles. Once cooled, peel and seed the peppers, and give them rough chop.
  • Heat the vegetable oil in a non-stick skillet over medium heat. Add the onions and cook for two or three minutes until the onions are tender. Stir in the garlic, cumin and epazote/oregano and continue to cook another 30 seconds.
  • Add in the corn and hominy, stirring occasionally, and cook for two minutes. Stir in the Poblanos and salt to taste. Cook an additional two or three minutes until the everything is heated through.
  • Remove from heat and mix in the cilantro and lime juice.
  • Serve with lime wedges.

WW CORE MEATLOAF



Ww Core Meatloaf image

This is a very flavorful meatloaf that qualifies as a core recipe for Weight Watchers. I love onions, so there are lots, but obviously you can adjust the onions and the spices to taste. I rarely measure spices unless following a recipe, so all measurements for spices are approximate. Also, I almost always use ground turkey, but this could be made with ground beef. There are a lot of steps here, but none of them are very hard and can be done quite quickly. Don't be afraid of using oats. Once cooked, you cannot tell the oats are there.

Provided by BabyKEsq

Categories     < 4 Hours

Time 1h15m

Yield 8 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 13

2 lbs lean ground turkey
2/3 cup rolled oats
2 eggs, whisked
1 medium onion, diced
3 garlic cloves, minced
1/2 tablespoon olive oil
2 tablespoons fennel seeds, toasted
1 tablespoon Worcestershire sauce
1 tablespoon italian seasoning
1/2 tablespoon garlic powder
1 teaspoon salt
1 teaspoon black pepper
15 ounces canned tomato sauce, divided

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 350 degrees.
  • Place fennel seeds in a small, non stick pan over medium high heat on your stove top to roast. Occasionally stir or shake seeds as they roast. Roast until seeds start to appear a bit golden in color instead of greenish, about 2 minutes. Be careful, they will go from toasted to burnt very quickly.
  • Place the diced onion and olive oil in a non stick pan, sprinkle with salt and saute. To avoid burning, add the minced garlic to the onions after a few minutes. Saute onions and garlic until tender.
  • In a large bowl, combine turkey, oats, whisked eggs, sauteed onion and garlic, fennel seed, Worcestershire sauce, Italian seasoning, garlic powder, salt, black pepper, and about 3 tablespoons of the canned tomato sauce, reserving the remaining sauce. Combine well using your hands or a large spoon.
  • Spray the bottom of a 9x13 baking dish with cooking spray. Turn meat mixture out into the baking dish and form into a rectangular loaf that ends about an inch and a half from the sides of the pan. I like to flatten the top of the loaf and then form an indentation around the top to make a lip. This helps to keep the tomato sauce on top of the loaf.
  • Pour the remaining tomato sauce on top of the loaf spooning some onto the sides of the loaf.
  • Bake at 350 degrees for approximately 55 minutes.

AMISH STYLE CHICKEN AND CORN SOUP (WW CORE)



Amish Style Chicken and Corn Soup (Ww Core) image

Found this one in a Weight Watchers cookbook, and modified it to suit the WW Core program. A great way to use up leftover chicken and to provide a good flavorful lunch soup quickly. What sets this apart from so many other chicken and corn soups is the absence of dairy and the use of saffron to give the dish a distinct color, aroma and flavor. (3 Points)

Provided by justcallmetoni

Categories     Clear Soup

Time 45m

Yield 4 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 10

4 cups low sodium chicken broth
8 -10 ounces skinless chicken breasts or 8 -10 ounces skinless chicken thighs
1/2 medium onion, chopped
1/2 carrot, peeled and chopped
1/2 celery, coarsely chopped
1/4-1/2 teaspoon saffron
1/2 cup frozen corn
1/2 cup cooked whole wheat egg noodles
1/2 cup celery, small cubes
1/2 tablespoon chopped parsley

Steps:

  • Add the broth, chicken, onion, chopped celery and saffron to a large saucepan. Bring to a boil. Cover and reduce to a simmer for 30 minutes. During simmering time, you may want to gently skim any foam that comes to the top of the broth.
  • Take the chicken from the pan and reserve to the side while it cools. Strain broth removing all bits. Return to the sauce pan.
  • Take the now cooked chicken, remove the bones and dice into small (1/4) inch cubes. Add to the broth along with the cooked noodles, corn, celery and parsley.
  • Heat the soup until all ingredients are hot.
  • Serve.
