lazy cooks everything innit cookies

You know those annoying people who keep cooing to their dogs,talking to them and then telling folks that the animal understands every word.The kind of people who call their pets "baby" and "dumpling".......the kind of people who give you dirty looks when you give dirty looks to dogs.........well I'M one of those!The only reason that I don't have one of my dogs as my profile pic...is ..because I'm SURE  some smartass is going to comment that they always knew I was a bitch!So to prevent unplesantness..the pic remains mine! But....my precious ones do manage to come into the frame now and again.
Sometime back I mentioned that Caspar (my white spaniel)had been put on a diet by the vet........anyway a couple of months down and our friend weighs the same ..if not just a wee bit more......Since our man couldn't have the regular cookies...I made these "healthy" ones for him n me!My kids stick to their chocolate chip and variations of chocolate chip....these were made for my baby n me!
INGRDS

1 cup oats
1 cup dates-chopped

1/2 cup grated coconut.
1/4 cup brown sugar
1/2 cup chopped walnuts
100 gms butter
1 egg
1 tsp cinnamon pdr

3.Bake in a preheated 190deg oven for 12-15 mins.

lazy cooks cottage pancakes

Hello people.........howz your weekend progressing?For me...(though i might crib later)I am thrilled to bits to see the sun out.....shining nice n bright,such a happy feeling!.and when I feel happy I make pancakes..... OK not true.....when I'm really happy I eat chocolate....when i'm sad I also eat chocolate!Pancakes got done coz the kids wanted to have the same for breakfast.These are not your regular pancakes..first of all I make it with whole wheat flout(atta),I add oats..and cottage cheese(paneer)These taste absolutely great with some honey. I normally just keep throwing the stuff together but today I measured everything out for you guys....here goes




INGRDS
1.3 eggs
2. 1/2 cup sugar
3. 1/2 cup milk
4. 3/4  cup wholewheat flour(atta)....you can use regular flour if you want.
5. 1/2 cup oats
6. 1 tsp vanilla essence

7. 100 gms cottage cheese crumbled(paneer)


METHOD
1.Beat the eggs and sugar together(a fork is good enough ),add the rest of the stuff(paneer...last)
2.Heat a nonstick pan(on medium heat)...ladle on the mixture...dot with some ghee(clarified butter)once the bootom looks firm enough,turn them upside down(i normally do two at one time)..cook the other side..and dish them up!This is a nice healthy breakfast option.My kids like it with honey........but a nice fruity strawberry/blueberry sauce..along with a dollop of fresh cream is pretty divine too!

lazy cooks eggs in white sauce

Hi guys....how are you doing?Here's another "eggy" recipe.practically a staple in my house.Now i do not hate butter(quite the opposite actually..i can't imagine a world without butter.),i figure where i can introduce olive oil without compromising on the taste...i do!.and i use whole wheat flour instead of regular flour.
INGRDS
1.Boiled eggs-5(shelled)
2.1 tablespoon olive oil
3. 1 tablespoon wholewheat flour
4. salt and pepper to taste
5.1 cup milk
METHOD
1.In a heavy bottomed pan,heat the olive oil..add the flour and stir for 2 mins....add the milk...while stirring continously(you could also take the pan off the heat..add the milk..stir well and put it back on the heat)...the mix will get thick..add the salt and pepper.



2.Cut the eggs in half,arrange on the serving platter,pour the sauce on top and serve.
3.I put eggs into the white sauce,you can put in boiled veg,or pasta....or chicken(cooked and deboned)..........have fun.
