Italian Turkey Meatballs
1 lb. ground turkey

Bread crumbs, made by toasting one piece of (milk-free) wheat bread, spread with (milk-free) margarine, I use Smart Balance Light spread, sprinkle toast with Italian seasoning and garlic powder (lightly) and shred into small pieces by hand or with food processor.
1 tsp. minced garlic
1/2 tsp. salt
1 tsp. of dried basil
1 tsp. oregano
1 tsp. onion powder

Three-Bean Chili with Vegetables
1 1/2 tablespoons canola oil
2 cups chopped onion

2 tablespoons chili powder
2 tsp dried oregano

1 (6-ounce) can no-salt added tomato paste
1 1/2 tablespoons rice vinegar

1 cup chopped fresh cilantro
This recipe also calls for 1 cup shredded reduced-fat cheddar cheese and 1 cup reduced-fat sour cream, which we omitted from the whole stockpot. Instead, we left it on the side for those without a milk allergy.
Directions:
Heat oil in large stockpot over medium-high heat. Add onion, carrot, and garlic; saute 5 minutes. Stir in 4 cups water and next 12 ingredients (through tomato paste); bring to a boil. Cover, reduce heat, and simmer 25 minutes or until carrot is tender, stirring occasionally. Stir in vinegar and chipotle. Top with fresh cilantro. We kept the cheese and sour cream on the side for those without milk allergies.
Also, the second day, I added ground turkey and it was great. For more information like the nutritional information on this recipe, go to MyRecipes.com.

2/3 cup cocoa
3/4 cup shortening
1 1/4 cups water
1 1/4 teaspoons baking soda
1 teaspoon salt
1/4 teaspoon baking powder
1 teaspoon vanilla

I like to add milk free chocolate chips to the batter before I bake the cake. I have tried and like Tropical Sourcechocolate chips and Ghiradelli® chocolate chips. Although, Ghiradelli chips are manufactured on the same equipment that also makes products containing milk.
Heat oven to 350 degrees. Grease and flour rectangular pan, 13x9x2 inches, 2 round pans, 9x1 1/2 inches or 3 rounds pans, 8x1 1/2 inches. Beat all ingredients 30 seconds on low-speed, scraping bowl constantly. Beat on high-speed 3 minutes, scraping bowl occasionally. Pour into pan(s).

I also use this recipe for cupcakes and bake 18 to 20 minutes.

To cook each crepe, pour batter onto warm skillet with a ladle. Pour enough to fill the pan. (Make sure the bottom of the pan is covered with batter.) If you have never made these before, it may take a couple times to get the hang of it. You don't want them to be too thick like a pancake or too thin so they burn. They cook very quickly and will need to be turned when it is light brown. Use a spatula to loosen the sides and turn and cook the other side until it is also light brown. Immediately spread with margarine and sprinkle with sugar. Roll the crepe and top with fresh strawberries. Serve warm and enjoy!
