Strawberry Applesauce (Lazy Version)

I can't cook. But this is a favorite snack of mine... take about one part strawberry jam, three parts applesauce. Mix. Yum!

Curried Squash

Mix in a bowl:

• One apple, chopped into small pieces.
• A cup of cooked rice
• A few tablespoons of toasted sesame seeds.
• Some paprika
• Some curry powder I used about a table spoon and a half
• Some garlic, not a lot
• Some salt

Slice a three or four-pound squash with a large center (a pumpkin, curi, or hubbard would work well) and scoop out the inside. Put in a pan with a lid, open side up, fill with the filling above, and put some water underneath so the squash can steam-cook. Bake at 300° for forty minutes, or until the squash is tender and moist. Serve warm, and enjoy.

Banana Sundae

Freeze some ripe bananas, peeled. Take 'em out of the freezer, slice 'em into mouthful sized bits, pile 'em in a bowl, pile on coconut, breakfast cereal and/or nuts and chocolate, let melt just barely (so things stick to the bananas) and eat. Yum

Sweet Rice

Heat a skillet or wok with a tad of oil. When it's warm (above boiling-hot throw a (tiny) bit of water onto it, and if it sizzles, it's hot). Throw in:

• A cup and a half od cooked rice. I was bad and used white rice.
• A small bunch of raisins. Yum.
• A few tablespoons of sugar. I'd use brown sugar, or better, turbinado or fructose, but I'm out, so I used (ack!) white sugar. Malt syrup is probably really good too.
• A quarter cup of unsweetened coconut, shredded small. If you use sweetened, then use less sugar
• A teaspoon of coriander. Cinnamon in addition or instead would be yummy.
• A teaspoon of powdered vanilla. Liquid will work, I have no idea how. Try and see.
• A dash of water, so it mixes well.

Cook until it's dried back out to the consistency of rice-ish stuff, and eat.
