You do not need to be afraid of cooking rice again! lol Real rice is so much better for you than instant. So here is a basic recipe that will have you cooking rice like a pro! Check out the options too! Your friends and family will think you're a star!&nbsp;

Perfect Basic White Rice

rice

butter (optional)

white vinegar (optional)

In a saucepan with a good fitting lid bring water, salt and optional ingredients if desired to a boil.  The salt and butter are simply for flavor. The vinegar keeps your grains separated and gives you a prettier dish. No one will taste the vinegar at all!

Cover and reduce heat to low. You will know that your temperature is correct if a little steam is visible leaking from the lid. A lot of steam means your heat is too high.

The steam that is trapped inside the pan is what allows the rice to cook properly.

I've banished the boil in the bag variety and retired my rice cooker, cos I've found Mama's method, tried & true!  I've been making rice this way for so long, my apologies for not (thanking Mama, and) reviewing this recipe sooner.  I have used this method with white rice and par-boiled with no problems (other than it's hard to put the fork down!)  I usually make this with chicken broth in lieu of water, as my family loves it.   Thank you.

We have been given some fresh corn by friends, since it was so fresh I didn't want any of the corn flavour to be removed so I boiled the corn.  This dish is simple yet quick could be used as a side dish or plate filler.

Corn on the Cob - Boiled

corn on the cob, remove husks

butter (optional) or 1 tablespoon margarine (optional)

salt, (optional)

black pepper, to taste (optional)

In a large pot, enough to hold the corn, fill it with water to cover the corn (the corn should float).

On a medium heat allow the pot of water to boil.  Once the water is boiled, add in the corn into the pot and cover.  Cook for 10-15 minutes depending on how soft you want your corn.

Drain water and remove corn on the cob. Be careful as cob will be extremely hot.

Top the corn with preferred seasons, herbs and spices. I prefer salt, pepper and butter.

i thought the recipe was perfect as is, it brought me back to some very fond childhood memories. I could never even imagine not piling on a bunch of salt, pepper, and butter because that's what my taste buds prefer. Just a thought for some of you who feel the need to put their 2 cents in on every comment section of every recipe and rewrite it with all the corrections the way they think it should be made, why not just post your own recipe on your own recipe page instead. Tweaking is one thing, and we all welcome that, but I find it extremely rude and disrespectful when people pick apart a recipe that someone else took the time out of their busy day to share with others who can benefit from it. If I wanted a recipe for a very bland corn on the cob in it's all natural state I would've picked one. I will say, I appreciate the fact that you weren't terribly rude in the way you went about it, most of the ones Ive read are, and those people ought to be ashamed of themselves, you know who you are. Thank You!

One of my favorite pancakes ever! These are delicious, chocolaty pancakes with high fiber, reduced fat, reduced sugar, and even some fruit snuck in there (shh... don't tell!). Very yummy, very satisfying. If you wish to enjoy these plain, boost the sugar and the chocolate chips.

Healthy Cocoa Chocolate Chip Banana Pancakes

skim milk

milk

egg whites, lightly beaten egg

vanilla

banana

all-purpose flour

whole wheat flour

cocoa powder

flax seeds

baking soda

milk chocolate chips, mini (or semi-sweet)

raspberry jam (warmed)

In a small bowl whisk milk, egg whites, vanilla, and banana.

In large bowl, mix flours, cocoa powder, sugar, flax seed, baking soda and salt.

Add wet mixture to dry, and whisk just until dry ingredients are moistened, folding in chocolate chips.

Pour pancakes onto greased griddle (at about 350-375&deg;F) and let sit until lightly bubbling and edges have began to firm. Flip and cook until firm and browned. Top with jam or a sweet sauce.

FREEZING INSTRUCTIONS: If you make these to freeze them, don't make the topping. Cool the pancakes on a wire rack, and then when they are completely cool, wrap them in tinfoil (I wrap them in packs of two for 1 serving) and freeze. Microwave until warm, then toast to unfreeze them.

This has become a staple in our house. All my kids absolutely love them. They are healthy, and delicious! My kids are young, so don't eat a lot at one time, but by the end of the day all the pancakes that were not finished at breakfast have been eaten as snacks

Turn up the stove for Sunny Anderson's healthy Honey-Glazed Carrots recipe from Cooking for Real on Food Network.

Honey Glazed Carrots

Salt

baby carrots

flat-leaf parsley

Honey Glazed Carrots: Food Network

In a medium saucepan, bring water to a boil. Add salt and then carrots and cook until tender, 5 to 6 minutes. Drain the carrots and add back to pan with butter, honey and lemon juice. Cook until a glaze coats the carrots, 5 minutes. Season with salt and pepper and garnish with parsley.

Good but needs adjusting. First, recipe says to cook in water til TENDER.  It takes a while to get there, so I covered it to speed things along. But then at the end it says to cook 5 mins more with the honey and butter, making it TOO tender. So next time I'd cook in water, covered, BUT I'd cook til FIRM TENDER and then proceed with the butter and honey.  I don't like carrots to be TOO soft, they can feel like baby food that way. Glad I tested this one before Easter!

The only comment that I have is that an extremely talented Cordon Bleu chef that I worked for always said that “if it grows below the ground, start with cold water and if it grows above, start with boiling water.

This is a "keeper" recipe.  I served it with my Easter Dinner and the family just LOVED it!!!  I used carrots with the tops still attached, and I trimmed and peeled the whole carrots so that they looked just like the photo, and I must say, it makes for a beautiful presentation.  I cooked as directed and my carrots were PERFECTLY cooked, tender, but certainly not mushy.  They were beautiful and delicious.

Great easy recipe, husband says I can cook this every day! Thank you.

Very tasty and not too sweet because of the balanced flavors.<br />

jus made this tonite,im very pleased with the ease of this recipe yet so tasty

I loved this!  I used what I had at home, so I replaced the honey with agave syrup, butter with coconut butter, and omitted the parsley.  It came out great!

I have made these several times, always a hit.  Serving for Christmas dinner; standing rib roast and loaded baked potatoes.

I made this as a side for Thanksgiving. Everybody loved them.  I followed the recipe exactly that time but have made some slight tweaks since: I steam the carrots instead of boil them. It only takes a tiny bit more time and saves all the good nutritional content. Also, I leave the carrots slightly underdone at this stage before tossing them into the glaze mixture, as they will cook further in while in the glaze sauce and you don't want mushy carrots.  The second time I made it I also had the glaze sauce going while the carrots steamed. This way it thickened up quicker. If you wait to combine it when the carrots are done steaming then the glaze is too watery. Lastly, I also put in 1/3 less butter and it was just as good as the first time i made it. The important flavors to me were the sweetness of honey and tang of lemon.  I love this recipe

Make and share this Spaghetti With Fresh Tomatoes and Basil recipe from Food.com.

Spaghetti With Fresh Tomatoes and Basil

tomato,

onion, minced

olive oil, divided

fresh basil, chopped

salt,

pepper

spaghetti

Cook spaghetti according to package directions. Only drain spaghetti, do not rinse.

Meanwhile, cook onions in 1/2 tbs olive oil in a small pot over medium high heat until soft, about 1 minute.

Reduce heat to low. Add tomatoes, sugar, pepper and salt to taste. Stir to mix.

Tomatoes should get warm, but not cooked, about 5 minutes.

When ready to serve add remaining 1/2 tbs oil, basil and spaghetti to tomatoes. Remove from heat, mix well, cover and let rest for 2 minutes. Serve.

I am in the middle of a bumper crop of heirloom tomatoes and was looking for something fast and easy, using what I had on hand. WOW!!!!!!  Was I shocked at how yummy this was. Sometimes I have been known to change up the recipes a bit, but on this one I didn't after reading reviews.  Even the husband wanted to get his hands into it and add more oil, garlic and basil. I ended up having to ban him from the kitchen while I was making this dish. This was a great surprise!!!!  We were fighting over the serving bowl during dinner!!  THANKS!

I always like to have a few salads at my BBQ to balance out the heavier stuff. Cole slaw is one of the classics, and I love it, but I like to make it my own by mixing in a few Asian flavors. I use the pre-shredded coleslaw mix that comes in bags at the supermarket or for red and green shredded cabbage packaged separately. And then I dress it up with some other fresh ingredients to make an outstanding and different kind of slaw.

Asian Style Slaw

(6 large) scallions, trimmed and thinly sliced

(16-ounce) bags coleslaw mix red cabbage

red onion, thinly sliced

soy sauce

vegetable oil

white vinegar

dark brown sugar

Asian sesame oil

sesame seeds, optional

Rough up the scallion slices a little with your fingers so all the little layers of the scallion whites separate. Toss the coleslaw mix or both kinds of cabbage, the red onion and scallions together in a large bowl until everything is thoroughly mixed. You can make the slaw up to this point up to a day in advance as long as you keep it refrigerated. Before serving, simply bring the slaw back to room temperature, make the dressing and toss.

Stir the remaining ingredients together in a small bowl until blended, then pour over the vegetables. Serve within 1 hour of dressing or the cabbage will get wilty and sad.

The perfect pairing with teriyaki skirt steak and sticky rice. I added cilantro and substituted brown sugar for honey, and white vinegar with rice vinegar. Perfection!

So delicious and easy! I added cilantro. Very tasty !

I was looking for an alternative to cole slaw and this recipe rocks!  I added cilantro, sliced almonds and black sesame seeds.  Yum yum!

Really good!  It's a bit heavy on onions so tone them down if you need to.  I halved the recipe and it fed our family of 4 perfectly.  My teenage boys had seconds, said they couldn't get enough.

Great recipe!  I had a head of napa cabbage in the fridge that I used instead of traditional cabbage, and I was very pleased with the result.

We liked it wilty!!!  Made it ahead of time and let it marinade in its own juices - fear not allowing it to sit and absorb all the goodness.

Loved it. Made a half batch and almost devoured it in one night by myself. Like it so much I could stuff it in a tortilla and live on it. Wished I used the dressing more sparingly however. I also had an abundance of sugar snap peas and banana peppers in my garden so I added them for extra crunch sliced diagonally. I think I’m going to make this dressing for regular salads too. I also left out the sugar...Didn’t need it.

I made it as instructed, and it was very well received by guests.<br />

The recipe and reviews sounded great, but I did not like it at all and did not make any changes to the recipe. Not a helpful review I know .... but this just wasn't for me. :)

This recipe's Asian flavorings are a welcome change from plain coleslaw.

Asian-Style Coleslaw Recipe

This is the only pasta salad my husband will eat. The dressing though similar to other BLT salads on the site has one major difference and it really adds a wonderful zip to the salad. When ever I serve this salad several people go home with the recipe.
