Surprise Banana Cake

Reviewed: Mar. 3, 2009
Yes, this cake was more like a loaf bread, but it was delicious! I baked it in a loaf pan and added 15-20 minutes to the baking. I found that it was a little too buttery so next time I would either cut down on the butter or substitute a canola oil for half the butter called for.

Chili Colorado

Reviewed: Mar. 2, 2009
This recipe needs more ingredients. I served it as is over rice and it was something different to do with pork, but it really wasn't chili.

Pheasant Breast Stuffed with Apples in a Cider Vinegar and Prune Sauce

Reviewed: Feb. 18, 2009
Truthfully I didn't like the mix of flavors in this recipe. I liked the stuffing itself, although I thought it could use more seasoning, more of a mix of the sweet and savory. I think the recipe called for too much vinegar in the sauce - and overall I really didn't think the prune sauce complimented, but more battled with the flavors in the stuffing. I like the idea of this recipe, and maybe with some adjustments it could be very interesting.

Lime Chicken with Cilantro Cream Sauce and Roasted Zucchini

Reviewed: Feb. 14, 2009
The timing of this recipe was a bit off -I thought the pasta was cooked too much in advance, however the sauce on this chicken was to die for. Wonderful flavors! I lightly floured the chicken before cooking, and I served mine w/angel hair pasta instead of linquine but other than that I followed the recipe as it was written.

Beefy Lentil Vegetable Soup

Reviewed: Feb. 12, 2009
Good versatile recipe. I used kidney beans due to lentil allergy, and I added green beans for color. I liked the addition of V8 juice.

New England Potato Soup

Reviewed: Feb. 6, 2009
I too added carrot and brocolli. I found it still a little bland - maybe because the recipe calls for milk instead of cream? Anyway I think it will be better the second day. It's defintely a recipe worth experimenting with.

Chicken Marsala Florentine

Reviewed: Feb. 6, 2009
This was an easy, absolutely delicious recipe - I was looking for a veal recipe but I found this and substituted veal for the chicken. Served it with whole wheat pasta and asparagus. Will definitely make it again - pretty and tasty enough for company.

Veneto Chicken

Reviewed: Feb. 3, 2009
Initially this seems too simple to be good, but the result is very tasty! I used boneless breasts, and I added some garlic to the onion celery mixture, but that's it. It's a great low fat recipe with lots of taste.

Makhani Chicken (Indian Butter Chicken)

Reviewed: Jan. 28, 2009
I followed the advice of others and added a little more of the spices (and coriander) because I like very tasty food. This was a very simple very good Indian dish.

Marinated Pork Tenderloin

Reviewed: Jan. 28, 2009
This was a great simple recipe - I didn't grill it, but broiled the tenderloin before baking it. The marinade was perfect

Wild Risotto

Reviewed: Jan. 19, 2009
This was a little time consuming, due to precooking the wild rice. I would add more chicken broth or stock and less water next time to give it more flavor - otherwise it was great. I added chicken, some parmesan cheese and asparagus in mine.

Grandmother's Buttermilk Cornbread

Reviewed: Jan. 14, 2009
This is the best corn bread recipe ever - it is between corn bread and a corn muffin, moist, a little sweet and "sturdy." If you, like me, like to toast your corn bread in a pan w/a little butter, this recipe makes the perfect bread for doing so!

Elegant Stuffed Chicken and Asparagus Bundles

Reviewed: Jan. 14, 2009
This recipe was delicious. (I didn't make the asparagus though - just the chicken.) The stuffing was very tasty, a nice mix of savory and a little sweet from the cornbread addition. I did have more than enough stuffing for 2 breasts though. This is definitely a dish that it suitable for dinner guests but it's a nice everyday dish too. Adjustments I made : I put the veggies in a food processor before cooking as I didn't want any large chunks of veggies. I also added a little fresh tarragon to the stuffing and I put a small amount of chicken broth in the bottom of the baking dish for basting. (can use this to make gravy too)
