Zaftig - Yes, you're right about the translation. That's exactly what it means. And, that's exactly the way I am too!
Re frying motza - I have pots/pans that don't need any fat to saute, etc. They're from T-Fal called Armaral Ingenio (made in France--hoity-toity!!!) Got 'em a few years ago from a TV ad and I just love them. They conduct heat so well that you only have to put them on med heat for them to cook on high. The inside surface is pebbled and not smooth. Nothing ever sticks to the surface and they're a snap to clean. We decided to get these particular pans because of being able to cook without oil/fat, there's no need to scrub them because nothing ever sticks (my hands are in bad shape and I can't grab things or scrub because of my thumb joints) and the handles snap off allowing youu to be able to put them inside one another without the handles getting in the way.
Anyway, sometimes I do use a little oil when sauteeing but onions, mushrooms will brown without it.I think I used a little margerine with the fried motza but you could probably use spray Pam (butter flavor) and I think it would come out good.
Here's another idea for a snack, tho, you being the Princess and all! At bagel bakeries, sometimes they make bagel chips. What they do is slice day old bagels very thin and bake them so they get crisp like crackers. It's full of soluble fiber and they're really good too. Reminds me of eating potato chips, only no fat and no salt. They make them out of the sweet ones; i.e. raisin, cranberry, strawberry, blueberry, etc. I know, I know, back in our day all we had to choose from was plain and egg. Now, the sky's the limit. My sister visited a few days ago and brought me a load of bagels and some bagel chips. That's what I'm munching on right now. YUM!
Living in California, I miss--SO MUCH--Jewish deli's. When I lived at home in NJ, every Friday evening we'd get in the car and go to the Jewish deli and buy Nova lox, smoked salmon, smoked whitefish (I can still see the golden yellow skin), bagels, barrel pickels and green tomatoes for breakfast on Saturday. Oh, poo, I wanna be 16 again!!!!
