Low-Fat Blueberry Bran Muffins

Reviewed: Aug. 18, 2011

These are awesome! My husband said they were the best I had ever made. I did substitute egg replacer for the egg and used a non-dairy milk substitute for the milk due to allergies in the family. The result was fabulous! My 5 year old gobbled them up.

Bolognese Stuffed Bell Peppers

Reviewed: Aug. 5, 2011

These were excellent! The stuffing flavors were awesome. The cooking time was just about right. I think blanching the peppers ahead of time might have made them less crunchy, but I like them that way. I also cut the peppers in half to stuff them. It seems to be easier for me and I like the presentation. It is also easier if you do not want to eat a whole stuffed pepper yourself. The only thing I did differently was leave out the cheese and used coconut milk for the cream due to allergy in the family.

Beef Stroganoff III

Reviewed: Jul. 30, 2011

I was not thrilled with this recipe. For some reason, this had little flavor. I am not exactly what I would blame it on other than there just was not the right combination of flavors here.

Asian Tuna Patties

Reviewed: Jul. 16, 2011

I made this a couple of weeks ago and I thought it was great! I am very happy to have a simple and new way to use canned Tuna. I do not recall having changed a thing in the recipe.

Slow-Cooked, Texas-Style Beef Brisket

Reviewed: Jul. 12, 2011

There is no way I would cook an 8 lb brisket even on Low for 24 hours. Any crock pot worth having and working properly should have it sufficiently cooked in 8-10 hours. So that is why there are so many reviews that say it was burned. I have used the combination of ingredients before and it is excellent. However, i adjusted the cooking time to 1 hour per pound on Low.

Quail With Rice

Reviewed: Jun. 17, 2011

I made this last night for my very skeptical husband. He did not think he would like it after a very negative review of duck and goose. However, he was pleasantly surprised and enjoyed it a lot. My young son also liked it. The only thing I changed was I substituted brown rice for long grain, some of the broth for white wine(1/2 cup) and I used an herb seasoning instead of Lemon pepper. I also added fresh garlic to the vegetable mix. Thanks for sharing this awesome recipe!

Shrimp and Crab Bisque

Reviewed: May 14, 2011

I love this recipe. The only thing I changed was to add the wine at the beginning so that the alcohol taste cooks out and the richness of the soup is enhanced as the wine cooks. I also added some paprika and used 100% crab meat. This is DELICIOUS!!!!!

Harvest Pork Stew

Reviewed: Apr. 18, 2011

Excellent and easy soup. I substituted parsnips for the potatoes. I was going to use turnips too as another reviewer suggested, but there were no good ones at the store. This is great comfort food and good leftover. This recipe made a lot! So we kept enjoying for a few days.

Pork Chops with Apple Curry Sauce

Reviewed: Sep. 26, 2010

It tasted great, however, it was terribly gassy for our family so we will not make it again I do not think!!!! I even took Beano before eating this and I was gassy for 24 hours!!!! Was it the Curry Powder???? It remains a mystery.

Oregon Salmon Patties

Reviewed: Jun. 19, 2010

I know I have made these before,but I cannot remember why I did not leave a review. These are absolutely THE best Salmon patties I have ever made. Softening the onion is a great idea, but I did not do it this time. I simply mixed everything together and slapped it in the skillet. I made the patties thin. I used an egg substitute due to food allergies, and I cooked in coconut oil for health. They were absolutely awesome!!!!!!!

Simple 100% Whole Wheat Bread

Reviewed: Jun. 14, 2010

I have done this with success, however, I thought adding some Vital Wheat Gluten made the texture and rising a little lighter when using the whole wheat flour. The flavor of this bread is unchanged with this addition and the simplicity of the recipe is awesome!!!!! I used the gluten at 4 Tbls, and I added it at the beginning with the yeast.

Booyah Chicken

Reviewed: Jun. 2, 2010

I can hardly believe that only 3 people have tried this recipe. I made this recipe and it was delicious. It is a stew that will feed a crowd. I liked the way that the different meats flavored each other, and it was very simple. You basically put everything in the pot and cook it. It is a soul food in my opinion and great for cold winter nights to warm you up.

Rice and Raisin Breakfast Pudding

Reviewed: Apr. 18, 2010

I liked this recipe because it is dairy free. My son has food allergies so this was absolutely perfect. He liked it and he does not usually eat cooked cereal. I think I would cook the rice a little longer with twice as much water, but the rest of the dish was a perfect blend. I used coconut milk in place of the soy. That was good and reduces the sugar in the recipe. Yummy!!!!

I could not keep the potatoes from sticking to the plate despite putting oil on it. I do not know what I did wrong, but the technique was not working......hmmmm

Escarole and Bean Soup

Reviewed: Mar. 9, 2010

I was pleasantly surprised at how much my husband really enjoyed this soup. Of course, he really likes bean soup and he had to put hot sauce on it, but he ate a healthy soup. What can I say? WOW!

Cuban Ropa Vieja

Reviewed: Mar. 9, 2010

I have no idea how authentic this recipe is, however, it is simple and delicious. I thought this was a little on the juicy side for a taco which is what my husband intended to do with it. I know in Cuba that is not how it is eaten, but in my house anything that goes with guacamole is eaten on a tortilla. This went very nicely with fresh advocado or guacamole.
