Baked Sandwiches Recipe
Recipe Ingredients
1 1/4 cup water at 110 to 115 f
2 1/4 tsp quick-rise yeast (1 pkg)
2 cup all-purpose flour
1 tsp salt
1 egg
2 tbsp vegetable oil
1 1/2 cup graham flour
1 filling
1 1/2 lb lean ground beef
1/2 cup chopped onions
1 cup tomato sauce
1/4 cup catsup
1 tsp garlic salt
1/2 tsp leaf oregano
1 pinch pepper
Recipe Preparation
May be frozen. Defrost in the fridge, on the way to a picnic or in
the microwave if you want them in a hurry.
Combine water and yeast in mixer bowl and let stand 5 minutes. Add all
purpose flour and mix at medium speed for another 4 minutes. Turn the
dough out onto a lightly floured board and knead a few times, form
into a ball and place in a well-greased mixing bowl. Turn the ball
over to grease the top, cover with a cloth and let stand at room
temperature to rise until doubled in volume.
While the dough is rising, cook the meat and onions over medium heat,
stirring frequently, until the onions are soft and the meat is
browned. Drain. Discard fat and juice, return meat and onions to the
pan. Add tomato sauce, catsup, seasoning and cook over medium heat
until the meat is dry with no noticeable liquid. Set meat mixture
aside to cool until dough is ready.
After the dough has doubled in volume, transfer it to a lightly
floured working surface. Knead lightly. Form into a roll and cut
into 12 equal portions. Form each portion into a little ball, cover
with a cloth and let rest for 10 minutes.
Roll each ball out to form a circle 5 to 6 inches across. Put about
1/4 cup of the meat mixture in the center of the circle. Pull the
dough up around the filling and press together at the top. Place on a
well greased cookie sheet, cover with a cloth and let stand about 30
to 40 minutes at room temperature or until doubled in volume. Bake at
350 F for 40 to 45 minutes or until lightly browned and firm. Serve
hot, using 1 sandwich per serving, or refrigerate or freeze to be
used later.

Food Tips of the Week
Losing weightDrink more water. At times during a hectic day, you guess you are peckish but in truth you might only want a restorative glass of water or cranberry juice. The sensations of needing food and needing a drink are close, but one can result in a fat tummy and the alternative is ok.
Some reduced carb diet tips:
* Don't skip meals Most low carb recipes are, errmm.., low in carbohydrates. Your body requires energy, and carbohydrates are a fast acting energy source. A low carb diet requires care and attention in managing your energy intake, as any energy contributed by non-carbohydrate sources is less efficient.
* Replace sugar with a low carb substitute such as splenda. Most recipes that require sugar can be adapted to make use of splenda instead. It is not exactly the same so you will need to do a bit of trial and error and it might not be perfect for everything, but it does a decent job once you get the measurements right.
