Whole-Wheat Chocolate Chip Cookies

Reviewed: Apr. 6, 2009

I followed some other reviews: Changed the 3/4 cup margarine to applesauce Changed 2 cups of sugar (white and brown) to 1 1/2 cups splenda I used all whole wheat flour (not pastry) They were yummy! And very filling. They were a bit cakey (so flatten them before cooking if you like flat cookies). I will try with the whole wheat pastry flour next time too.

Reviewed: Mar. 24, 2009

I make this at least once a week. I use jalapenos instead, and lots of cilantro. Company loves this!

Spiced Pot Roast

Reviewed: Mar. 24, 2009

Great roast! I browned the roast in a pan, then placed in the slow cooker for 7 hours on low. I also didn't have any chutney, so I added extra onions. Perfect and pulled apart with a fork, thank you!

Reviewed: Mar. 23, 2009

Very good! I used Splenda instead of sugar and applesauce in place of margarine. I did also add a little extra banana. They were very moist and cakelike. A make again for sure.

Vanilla - Chocolate Powdered Sugar Frosting

Reviewed: Sep. 11, 2008

Very creamy, not too sweet with the cocoa. Color is a light chocolate brown. I doubled the recipe for 2 9" rounds as someone previously suggested. Definitely better than store bought!

Banana Crumb Muffins

Reviewed: Sep. 2, 2008

Delicious! I substituted applesauce for butter and cut the sugar from 3/4 to 1/2 cup. Calorie count for this recipe after substitutions is 159 calories each. Yay! The topping is to die for.

Phyl's Salsa

Reviewed: May 30, 2008

Ok, so I think I ate about half a jar while making this! I will never buy store bought salsa again. I halved the recipe, it made 4 mason jars full. I used the called for amount of jalapenos, plus threw in some seeds. Also used a serrano pepper with some seeds, just the right amount of spice. I found I did need the cornstarch to thicken things up at the end. I also added 1/2 cup fresh cilantro towards the end, what can I say, I love cilantro. I will make this again and again. Thank you for the recipe!

Fresh Tomato Salsa

Reviewed: Apr. 24, 2008

This was very good! I used canned tomatoes instead of fresh (all I had on hand) and 1 jalapeno not seeded. Great cilantro taste, definitely add the salt, if not a little extra. Will make this again with fresh tomatoes.

Trinidad Stewed Chicken

Reviewed: Apr. 15, 2008

So simple but so good! The coconut milk is a definite plus, makes the house smell like chinese food. Make a bit extra sauce, especially if serving over rice.

Mom's Island Treasures

Reviewed: Apr. 15, 2008

These are amazing! Very few cookies made it to the oven (the dough is SO good). Hubby even liked them and he's not a chocolate chip cookie fan. He had 12! Mine were a bit crumbly when I doubled the recipe.

Crab Salad III

Reviewed: Apr. 15, 2008

This was really yummy! As with anything that has dried herbs in it, the longer you can let it sit, the better. I used orange peppers instead of green (sweeter), and cucumbers instead of radishes. Very good (and filling), will make again!

Egg Salad I

Reviewed: Apr. 14, 2007

I like mustard, but it's way too much in this recipe. 1 tbsp of mustard to 3 mayo worked well. Also cut red onion by at least half. Great idea, just needs some tweaking:)
