Marj (Squirrel Hall RA) - I swear I know this squirrel. LOL I love the dorm name, so cool. Thanks for stopping by my friend, I appreciate it so much. Will be searching for new recipes next on my list.
From member icantweight
Place eggs in saucepan and bring to a boil. Reduce heat and simmer for 8 minutes. Remove eggs from pan and cool in cold water. Peel (and discard the yolks for this plan).Sauté onion, ginger, garlic, and bay leaves. Cook for 4 minutes or until onion is soft. Add the tomato, turmeric, chili powder, cumin, corriander, and 1 cup of water. Bring to boil, then reduce heat and simmer for 3 minutes. Add garam masala and the eggs. Simmer for another 1-2 minutes. Garnish with coriander leaves. (Personally I like to throw in the coriander leaves/cilantro and simmer it a little bit for more flavor).

__________________________________________________________________________Sunlite's Jalapeño Chicken __________________________________________________________________________ From member Sunlite This tangy, spicy hot-and-sour chicken dish has lots of flavor, and will make your taste buds jump for joy!
Cut each chicken breast into thirds and place in the bottom of a 13" x 9" glass baking dish. Glass or ceramic is preferred because metal (especially aluminum) reacts unfavorably with acid. Pour the lime juice over the chicken, then sprinkle chicken with the sugar substitute. Add the next eight ingredients to the chicken, and pour the vinegar on top of everything. Gently stir with spoon, mixing in the chopped vegetables and vinegar with the chicken, and making sure chicken is evenly coated with vinegar. Marinate in the refrigerator overnight.Bake chicken on center rack of oven at 350ºF, for 30 minutes or until done, turning the chicken pieces occasionally. For crispier chicken, leave on the center rack and broil for the last 10 to 15 minutes of cooking time. Note of caution: If you use the glass dish to bake in, let it warm up gradually before putting it into a hot oven. Glass will crack if exposed to temperature extremes.

From member Deanna111 This was something I did tonight when I couldn't think of anything else to eat. Turned out pretty good.
BMOS Note: Many products labeled as rice sticks are not plan friendly. Please read ingredients carefully and shop according to the guidelines specified in our “What is it and where do I find it?” forum entry on rice pasta.
Heat nonstick skillet. Stir and cook the 1st 7 ingredients until tender andgreens reduced in size. Add rice sticks and mix together until wellblended. Pour egg whites over mixture, stir until egg whites are done.Enjoy!

Kathy~ Welcome back to FSO. It's good to have you 'home'. S.J. (Sandy) is the Dorm Chef for Cougar Hall and will be checking in with you!
Marj - I think the substitute would work. It is more for moisture in the recipe, I would think. Let me know how it goes.
