Slow Cooker Party Mix

Reviewed: Oct. 27, 2007

This is good enough, but not necessarily attention grabbing. I used celery seed rather than celery salt to avoid a too salty snack. The change was nice.

Old Fashioned Sugar Cookies in a Jar

Reviewed: Oct. 27, 2007

Simple and addictive! I was concerned that the dough might be too crumbly, but it came together well enough in the end.

Barley Primavera

Reviewed: Oct. 25, 2007

I've never enjoyed barley so much! The lemon juice really let this dish sing. I did not have fresh parsley so I used dried even that did not detract from the great combination of flavors.

These were easy to prepare and easy to clean up! They got an extra star just for that. I wanted to get a head start on dinner so I parboiled the potatoes after peeling and slicing them. That way I could pop the packets in the fridge without worrying about the potatoes discoloring. Potatoes seemed like an odd choice for the taco theme . . . though they turned out well, I'll use cooked rice next time. I was pleasantly surprised at how good the packets were. I let them bake the full 35 minutes and think that I'll take them out closer to 30 minutes next time.

Baked Tofu Bites

Reviewed: Oct. 24, 2007

I was excited to try this recipe. I loved the sesame seeds. However, I halved the marinade and it was still too much. It was saltier than I wanted, but I'm notorious for my salt aversion. I think I would prefer a ginger based marinade to this soy based marinade.
