Mexican Bean and Rice Salad

Reviewed: Nov. 6, 2009

Good but a little dry. Maybe I should have used more lime juice like some others suggested.

Super Duper Bean Salad

Reviewed: Oct. 19, 2009

My husband and I always keep one or two cold salads in the refrigerator. This salad is absolutely our very favorite. The only thing I change is to reduce the sugar to 1/4 cup.

The recipe called for 2 cups pasta. I could not decide if that was 16 oz. or 2 measuring cups of uncooked pasta. I opted for 16 oz. and I don't think this was correct. I ended up with a ton of pasta and not enough flavor. Might try it again with half the pasta.

Ten Clove Garlic Marinade

Reviewed: Jun. 9, 2009

We halved the liquid ingredients, used 1/4 tsp. salt, several tsp. minced garlic from a jar and marinated two ribeye steaks for two days in a plastic bag. My husband put them on the grill and they were absolutely delicious!

Spinach Lentil Soup

Reviewed: Jun. 9, 2009

My husband and I loved this soup. The reviews are so helpful because you can pick and choose to adapt to your tastes. I put the uncooked rice in the pot when I added the liquid. I used 6 cups of water and three dry packages of sodium free bouillon, doubled the kielbasa, and added minced garlic. Wonderful! A keeper!

Pasta with Kielbasa and Sauerkraut

Reviewed: May 28, 2009

Sounded weird but tastes Outstanding! My alterations as follows: 6 oz. ziti, 2 tblsp. oil, whole red pepper, 1 lb. turkey smoked kielbasa, 8 oz. sauerkraut (changes were based on other reviews and our personal tastes). All new recipes should be this good. When my husband likes a pasta dish, you know something is good!

Pea Salad I

Reviewed: Nov. 24, 2008

Granted this sounds good, but I can't believe anyone could look at the nutritional facts and still make it. I would surely be looking for a healthier recipe.

Ham and Bean Soup

Reviewed: Oct. 29, 2008

Absolutely delicious! Followed the recipe except I used polish kielbasa instead of bratwurst. It took a long time to make it, but it was definitely worth it!
