Cornucopia Recipe
Recipe Ingredients
3 can soft-breadstick dough
1 large egg, beaten with:
1 tbsp water
ASSORTED RAW VEGETABLES
1 sugar snap peas, red and
1 yellow cherry tomatoes,
1 baby carrots, baby squash,
1 cauliflower and broccli
1 floretts.
Recipe Preparation
1. Preheat oven to 350 degrees F. Lightly spray a cookie sheet, at
least 17"x 14", with non-stick cooking spray.
2. Tear off a 30"x 18" sheet of heavy duty aluminum foil. Fold in 1/2
to 18"x 15". Roll diagonally to form a hollow cone, about 18" long
with a diameter of 5" at the widest end (Cornucopia opening). Fasten
end with clear tape. Stuff cone with crumpled regular foil until
form is rigid. Bend tail of cone up then down at end. Spray outside
of cone with non-stick cooking spray. Place on cookie sheet.
3. Open and unroll first can of breadstick dough on work surface.
Seperate breadsticks. Begin by wraping one breadstick around tip of
cone. Brush end of next breadstick with Glaze and press to attach to
end of first breadstick. Continue spiral-wrapping cone, slightly
overlapping dough until there are 3 breadsticks left.
4. Pinch one end of the 3 breadsticks together, then braid. Brush
bread around opening of Cornucopia with Glaze. Gently press on braid.
Brush entire Cornucopia with Glaze.
5. Bake 45 minutes in preheated oven or until bread is a rich brown.
(If parts start to darken too much, cover them with poeces of foil.)
6. Remove from oven and let cool completely on cookie sheet on a wire
rack. Carefully remove foil when cool. (If freezing, leave foil in
bread for support. Remove when thawed.)
7. Fill Cornucopia with the assorted raw vegetables directly on
table and let them spill out of opening
NOTE-- To prevent this center-piece from absorbing atmospheric
moisture, the baked Cornucopia cone can be sprayed with shellac or
clear enamel. If treated in this manner, the Cornucopia will be
inedible but can be preserved and re-used.

Food Tips of the Week
Diet tipsAt the start of a diet, people most certainly look at food store and big brand food items labelled 'low in fat'. To do this is far too often a miscalculation, in that an item could be significantly reduced in fats, but nevertheless elavated in calories and carbs.
The problems associated with reduced carb diets
Its all the rage, but it is really safe for you?
Many studies over recent years have proved that eating excess animal fats causes greater risk of cancer, coronary disease and other serious illnesses.
Although there is strong evidence that suggests that low carb diets may help with your weight loss program, some of this strong evidence has proved to be controversial among nutritionists, and their safety record has been challenged
Carotenoid foods
(includes parsley, rose hip puree and sweet potatoes)
These orange and green foods are rich in alpha-carotene and beta-carotene thought by doctors to play a role in helping stop cancer, particularly cancers of the stomach and lesophagus. Most are low in calories, so should be included in every weight loss regime.
