Matejka) Date: Tue, 6 Feb 1996 19:35:36 -0700 Recipe FROM “Quick & Easy Casseroles” I made this for our dinner tonight. It is very good, however, the next time I make it I’ll use leftover white turkey meat instead of ground turkey breast. Preheat oven to 400. Prepare a 2-quart casserole dish with cooking spray; set aside. To prepare filling, combine turkey, bell peppers, and onions in a skillet. Cook until turkey is longer pink and vegetables are tender. Add taco seasoning mix, water, corn, and tomato sauce. Pour mixture into prepared dish. Meanwhile, to prepare topping, make corn muffin mix according to package directions. Spoon corn muffin batter around edge of turkey mixture. Bake, uncovered, for 20 minutes or until corn bread is done.

Ethiopian Flat Bread (injera)

Ingredients & Directions 3 c Self-rising flour (750 ml) 1 T Active dry yeast (one 1/2 c Whole wheat flour (125 ml) Package) (15 ml) 1/2 c Cornmeal or masa harina (125 3 1/2 c Warm water (875 ml) Ml) Mix and let set in large bowl, covered, an hour or longer, until batter rises and becomes stretchy. It can sit as long as 3-6 hours. When ready, stir batter if liquid has settled on bottom. Then whip in blender, 2 cups of batter at a time, thinning it with 1/2 – 3/4 cup water. Batter will be quite thin. Cook in non-stick frypan WITHOUT OIL (is that a great instruction or what?) over medium or medium-high heat. Use 1/2 cup batter per injera for a 12-inch pan or 1/3 cup batter for a 10-inch pan. Pour batter in heated pan and quickly swirl pan to spread batter as thin as possible. Batter should be no thicker than 1/8-inch. Do not turn over. Injera does not easily stick or burn. It is cooked through when bubbles appear all over the top. Lay each injera on a clean towel for a minute or two, then stack in covered dish to keep warm. Finished injera will be thicker than a crepe, but thinner than a pancake. To serve, overlap a few injera on a platter and place stews on top (I think most kinds of spicy bean or veggie stews/curries would be great with this. For Ethiopian food, the spicier the better). Or lay one injera on each dinner plate, and ladle stew servings on top. Give each person three or more injera, rolled up or folded in quarters, to use for scooping up the stews. I calculated that if you make 15 12-inch injeras, each would be about 120 calories, 3% CFF. Not bad. For a more authentic injera, add 1/2 cup teff flour (teff is a kind of millet) and reduce the whole wheat flour to 1/4 cup. Yields 15 servings
