Sesame-Crusted Tuna with Summer Salsa
This recipe was easy to prepare, the presentation was nice, and it tasted wonderful. CHANGES: I followed another reviewer's advice and added a little bit of onion, garlic, and fresh cilantro to the salsa, but I think it would've been good without it too. I also used a combination of sesame oil and canola oil and sprinkled a little soy sauce on the fish before coating it with sesame seeds. NOTES: I had never cooked tuna steaks before, so I went with the 4 min per side that is stated in the recipe, but it was too long. I think 2 to 2.5 min per side would've been enough. To be fair, its entirely possible that I had the heat up too high. The next time I prepare this (oh yes, there will be a next time), It will be absolutely perfect. Thank you for sharing the recipe!

Ciabatta Bread
I made this with 1/2 whole wheat and 1/2 AP flour (its what I had in the kitchen). It didn't rise as much as I would've liked, but it was the flour, I'm sure. Still, it rose enough to not be dense, and it had a good flavor. I did brown quickly, and didn't need the full 25 min to bake. All in all, it was a good experience with bread, and a good outcome. I will keep this in my recipe box to use again. Thanks to the reviewer who suggested the spatula to get the dough to the baking sheet and thanks to the person who submitted this recipe.

Mini Pumpkin Butterscotch Muffins
These were wonderful! I used bread flour instead of AP flour (its what I had) and 2t of pumpkin pie spice instead of mixing my own spices, but otherwise left the recipe alone. The recipe was easy to follow and the bake time was spot on - thank you for a great recipe. :)
