1 tablespoon olive oil
1 small onion, finely chopped
4 garlic cloves, minced
2 cups cooked diced potatoes
1 cup cooked diced carrot
1⁄2 cup canned sweet peas or 1⁄2 cup frozen sweet peas, thawed
5 teaspoons soy sauce
1 teaspoon curry powder
1⁄2 teaspoon cumin
1⁄4 teaspoon dried cilantro
1⁄4 teaspoon ground ginger
1⁄4 teaspoon turmeric
1⁄4 teaspoon salt
1 dash red pepper flakes
1 tablespoon water
2 (8 ounce) packages crescent rolls

Honey Dipping Sauce

1⁄3 cup honey
1 tablespoon lemon juice
1 tablespoon soy sauce
1 tablespoon water
2 garlic cloves, crushed
1 pinch red pepper flakes

Directions
Saute onion and garlic in oil 5 minutes until onion is soft.
Add all other ingredients except crescent rolls.
Stir gently over medium heat for several minutes until well incorporated.
Set aside.
Heat oven to 375°F.
Open cans of crescent rolls and unroll the dough.
Separate into 4 rectangles and pinch the triangular perforations to seal.
Cut each rectangle in half crosswise to make squares (you'll have 8 squares per can of crescent rolls).
You may have to coax the dough gently with your hands to make it square and to close up the perforations.
Spoon a heaping spoonful of filling in the center of each square and fold over to make a triangle.
Pinch the edges to seal.
Bake on cookie sheets sprayed with Pam for 12-15 minutes until golden.
Cool slightly on rack.
Serve warm with Honey Dipping Sauce.

Oh good.  Maybe a recipe using everything bagels?

[bbqjudge]

I know this isn't a recipe for the "Everything Bagel" --just a good idea.  We buy Panera Bread "Everything Bagels" , spread them with cream cheese, then sprinkle with the Trader Joe's "Everything But The Bagel" seasoning blend.  That seasoning is great and makes the "Everything Bagel" so much better.  If you want to accept this as a "recipe" , then I would suggest the next ingredient could be "Pumpkin".

Martha Stewart's Steamed Cranberry Pudding

My, husband, who is not a cook, makes this dessert for Christmas.  It is delicious and different . 

The molds are easy to find at any kitchen supply.  It really looks elegant and tastes like the Holiday Season. 

INGREDIENTS

12 ounces (3 cups) fresh cranberries
3/4 cup sugar
1/4 cup kirsch
1 cinnamon stick
1 1/2 cups all-purpose flour
1 1/2 teaspoons baking powder
Pinch salt
1/2 cup (1 stick) unsalted butter, softened
1 cup firmly packed dark brown sugar
2 large eggs

1 teaspoon vanilla extract
1 cup milk
1 cup dried cranberries
Kirsch-flavored whipped cream, for serving (optional)

DIRECTIONS

Generously butter a 7 1/2-cup steam pudding mold, set aside. In a large saucepan, combine cranberries, sugar, kirsch, and cinnamon stick. Place over medium-high heat and bring to a boil. Reduce heat to medium and simmer uncovered, stirring occasionally, for 10 to 12 minutes or until cranberries break down and mixture thickens. Remove from heat, discard cinnamon stick, and cool.
Evenly spread 1/2 cup of the cooled cranberry mixture onto the bottom of the pudding mold, set aside. Meanwhile, prepare the water bath: Fill a large pot (11-by-5 1/4-inches) one-third full with water. Place over a high heat and bring to a boil. Reduce heat to low, cover, and keep at a simmer until pudding is ready to cook.
Sift together in a medium bowl the flour, baking powder, and salt. In a large bowl with an electric mixer, beat the butter and brown sugar until light and creamy, about 4 minutes. Add the eggs one at a time, mixing until completely blended. Add the vanilla.
Add the dry ingredients alternately with the milk in three additions, beginning and ending with the dry ingredients and blending well after each addition. Add the dried cranberries and the remaining cranberry mixture to the batter and mix until well blended. Pour batter into pudding mold to within 1/2 inch of the top, cover tightly with the mold's lid.
Submerge a folded dish towel onto the bottom of the large water-bath pot or fit with a wire rack. Place the pudding mold into the water bath, resting on the towel, so that the water comes halfway up the sides of the mold. Cover the water bath and gently simmer the pudding for about 2 hours and 20 minutes or until set and a knife inserted into the center comes out clean.
Remove pudding mold from the water bath and cool 15 minutes on a wire rack. Unmold pudding onto a serving platter. Serve with kirsch-flavored whipped cream, if desired.
