Spaghetti Squash Medley
This was really excellent. The only thing I did differently was to increase the garlic (we love garlic) and I added half of a diced bell pepper, which I microwaved for 2 minutes. It was really really good. It was filling, and nutritious, and looked great, too! It received rave reviews from both my dad and husband, both of whom I think would rather have a meat-based meal. And it's great for our hot Phoenix summer-no oven required!

Roasted Eggplant and Garlic Hummus
This hummus was easy to make, and came out with a somewhat decent texture. I liked that it's quick to make and that the ingredients are affordable. However, the hummus was very bland. After making it according to instructions, I had to doctor the recipe up quite a bit to make it enjoyable. This might be a good base, but I would not serve it as-is. I give it two stars for affordability, accessibility, nutritional value and texture. It severely lacks in flavor.

Whole Wheat Banana Nut Bread
This was very good. The texture was just right, which was a pleasant surprise given the wheat flour, which often makes things too heavy/dense. I used Agave nectar instead of honey for diabetic concerns, and used unsweetened applesauce instead of oil, but left the rest of the recipe as-is. The only change I'll add next time is to add more banana--for being banana bread, it was not very banana-y. I baked the recipe in muffin tins. It made 18 muffins and they were done in 30-35 minutes.
