Caramelized Brussels Sprouts with Pistachios

Reviewed: Nov. 19, 2009
Too sweet. The sugar combined with the vinegar made it seem Asian, not good.

Jalapeno Corn Bread

Reviewed: Oct. 22, 2009
I baked mine 5 minutes less so it wasn't too dry as others have said. But, I'll keep looking for a corn bread recipe.

Lentil Barley Soup

Reviewed: Oct. 22, 2009
I made my own vegetable stock first. This was a good vegetable soup. But honestly it was nothing special.

Sweet Potato Gnocchi

Reviewed: Sep. 27, 2009
As a home chef, there's nothing worse than spending money and a good chuck of your time, to have a recipe turnout like this. This recipe as written, has absolutely no taste. I even grated fresh nutmeg and used fresh sage and still nothing. Oh well.

Espinacas con Garbanzos (Spinach with Garbanzo Beans)

Reviewed: Aug. 27, 2009
We loved this. A nice change from the usual sauteed spinach. I added some vegetable stock to moisten it up a bit. It turned out great. I did however use fresh leaf spinach with the spines removed. Fresh spinach is more hearty than baby or even frozen spinach. The cumin is the key to the recipe.

Pesto Pita Appetizers

Really quick and really easy. I make my own pesto and usually have some hanging out in the fridge. This is perfect for the ol' pop in.

Old-Fashioned Peach Cream Pie

Reviewed: Aug. 2, 2009
I made mine with peaches, strawberries abd blueberries. It was fantastic. The sour cream gives it a great tang. I did however used half of the butter the recipe called for in the topping and it still was great. Sure to please if you're looking for a great fruit pie recipe. I'm sure it'll work with any sort of fruit you have on hand. WOW.

True Blue Custard Crunch Pie

Reviewed: Jul. 26, 2009
I don't know, maybe it's me. I thought it was just okay. It was easy to assemble but I don't think I'll make it again.

Chickpea Cauliflower Curry

Reviewed: Jul. 22, 2009
Great recipe. However, it lacks enough spice as directed. Next time I will add much more "Indian" spices like cumin, corriander, tumeric, et al. I did saute the cauliflower instead of boiling which left it nicely crisp tender. A keeper.

Balsamic Vinegar and Ginger Bok Choy

Reviewed: Jul. 21, 2009
Nice way to make bok choy. The next time however, I will omit the balsamic vinegar and capers. I enjoy both flavors but not in this recipe.

Blueberry Bread I

Reviewed: Jun. 9, 2009
This was very good and quite moist. Don't forget to coat the blueberries with flour so they don't sink to the bottom of the loaf.

Cocoa Banana Bars

Reviewed: May 27, 2009
Tasted great. But I think I was expecting more of a brownie. This recipe is like a cake cut into squares. But they were good.

Lemon Orzo Primavera

Reviewed: May 11, 2009
Quick, easy to make, and a nice change from the usual. Don't cook the orzo too long, it will become a big pile of mush.

Tzatziki Sauce

Reviewed: Apr. 3, 2009
Nice dip for pita or sauce for Greek/ Arab food. Easy to prepare. Make sure to use a good quality plain yogurt and refrigerate before eating so flavors meld.
