Mate and where can they be gotten and for how much? Thanks.

Subject: Re: [CnD] Recipes wanted for Rangemate Multi Cooker
Hi:
The booklet does have quite a few recipes. The problem is that it is a text
pdf for all the instructions to use the cooker but images for the recipes.
If you do get a successful scan, I hope you will share it. I am working on
it also and if mine is successful I will post it.
Meanwhile, they did post some extra recipes on qvc and I have those which I
will post here.
Rangemate Cooking - Day 1 - Fritatas!
JUNE 19, 2014 AT 11:59 AM

Williams
I have a frittata recipe that typically takes 35 minutes in the oven. I used
the same ingredients and made Mini Frittatas in the Rangemate. They came out
perfectly and only took 12 minutes. Plus, I can freeze the the little
individual frittatas and they’re perfect to pull out for breakfast in a
hurry!
y mini frittatas were done, I put chicken sausage links in the Rangemate
and they were done in 4 minutes -- complete with grill marks. I added fresh
berries and clementines and breakfast was done. Delicious and soooo easy
Day 1 and I’m loving this pan already!
Mini Frittatas in the Rangemate
Ingredients
4 eggs
1/3 cup milk
2/3 cups shredded cheddar cheese
1/2 cup diced zucchini
1/4 cup diced red bell pepper
2 tbsp diced yellow onion
salt
pepper
olive oil
non-stick cooking spray
Beat eggs and milk in a bowl. Stir in vegetables and cheese, and season with
salt and pepper. Spray Rangemate silicone muffin cups with non-stick spray
and pour egg mixture into each cup. Fill the bottom of the Rangemate pan
with 1 cup of water and place the muffin insert into the pan. Cover with lid
and microwave until the egg mixture sets to your desired solid texture. (It
took 12 minutes in my 1000 watt microwave)
*Optional -- In a small bowl combine the zucchini, red pepper and onion;
add a dash of salt and drizzle with a little olive oil. Cover the bowl and
cook in microwave for 1 minute. This softens the vegetables and enhances the
flavor before they’re added to the egg mixture.
You can double or triple the recipe for multiple batches since the mini
frittatas will freeze well. You can also change and add any ingredients that
you like. I think I’ll try spinach, mushrooms and swiss cheese next time.
:-)
Rangemate Cooking Day 5 -- Black Bean Quesadilla
JUNE 23, 2014 AT 9:28 AM
Blogs - QVC Community – Forums, Blogs, and Consumer Product ... / Leah
Williams
The only time I put tortillas in the microwave is to warm them, and even
then, they have to be wrapped in a damp paper towel and watched very
carefully because they can easily become leathery and tough. So I was
pleasantly surprised when I made this quesadilla in the Rangemate and the
tortillas were perfect. Prep time about 5 minutes -- time in the microwave 3
minutes. Lunch ready in under 10!
Black Bean Quesadilla
Ingredients -- (makes 2 quesadillas)
1/2 can of black beans, drained
1/2 cup shredded pepper jack cheese
1 tbsp chopped cilantro
4 6” tortillas
1/2 avocado, cubed
1 tsp fresh lime juice
pinch of salt
Mash half the beans with a fork until smooth, and mix with remaining whole
beans. Spread beans on tortilla, top with cheese and cilantro. Cover with
second tortilla. Spray Rangemate pan with non-stick spray and place
quesadilla in pan. Cover with lid and microwave for 2 minutes. Flip
quesadilla and microwave for 1 minute more. Remove quesadilla from pan and
cut into 4 slices. Toss cubed avocado with lime juice and salt and serve
over quesadillas.
I’ll introduce the Rangemate as the Today’s Special Value, Wednesday, 6/25
at midnight.
Rangemate Cooking Day 2 -- Sausage & Peppers

Williams
This dish is from the Rangemate recipe book that came with the grill pan.
The ingredients were easy and the prep was even easier. The whole dish was
done in about 10 minutes -- now that’s good food “fast”.
(The Rangemate will be our TSV on June 25th)
Sausage & Peppers
Ingredients
1 tablespoon olive oil
1 green bell pepper, cut into 1/4-inch strips
1 red bell pepper, cut into 1/4-inch strips
1 diced tomato
12 -14 oz Italian Sausage cut into 1/2-inch slices (I used Sweet Italian
Style Chicken Sausage)
Salt and Pepper to taste
Place olive oil in Rangemate pan and add sausage. Cover with lid and
microwave for 4 minutes. Add peppers and tomatoes, and season with salt and
pepper. Cover with lid and microwave for another 4 minutes. Remove, stir and
serve.
You can serve this dish over pasta or rice, or enjoy it alone with delicious
crusty bread.
Day 2 and I’m loving the Rangemate even more!
Rangemate Cooking Day 3 - Celebrate Summer with Nectarines
JUNE 20, 2014 AT 7:01 PM
Blogs - QVC Community – Forums, Blogs, and Consumer Product ... / Leah
Williams
Today is the summer solstice -- the first day of summer! One of my favorite
things to do in summer is visit farmer's markets and fruit stands. I love
summer fruits, and they’re never better than when you can find them grown
locally.
In honor of summer and summer fruits, I used nectarines for my Day 3
Rangemate recipe. If you haven’t tried nectarines, they’re basically
fuzz-less peaches. I used the Rangemate to grill them for an easy delicious
dessert.
Grilled Nectarines
Ingredients:
2 ripe nectarines
olive oil
maple syrup
Pit the nectarines and cut each into 8 wedges. Place the wedges in a bowl,
drizzle with olive oil and maple syrup and toss. Once the nectarines are
coated, place them in the Rangemate grill pan. Cover pan with the lid and
microwave for 3-4 minutes. Turn the nectarines over and microwave for
another 2 minutes. Remove and serve.
Grilled nectarines are delicious topped with a little whipped cream, or
served over ice cream on a hot summer day!
Day 3 and I’m still loving the Rangemate. Happy Summer!

your corn it will be hot and delicious.

I bought this round cooker for the microwave from QVC but the booklet
doesn't seem to have many recipes in it. And I'll have to scan it. Does
anybody happen to have one, and if so, where have you found other recipes
for it. I got it because it looked pretty Summer friendly and blind
friendly at the same time.
Thanks in advance.
Have been making lots of smoothies lately but doing very little cooking.
Will be making a pasta dish for the crock pot tomorrow. I'll share if it
turns out well. (smiles)
As Always, Vicki
