Fennel Soup
Oh, my! I'm pretty sure they serve this soup in heaven, that's how good it is! Per other reviewers, I added some diced potato and pureed the soup before serving. Also, I double the recipe, but kept the butter amount the same and it was still rich and delicious! Finally, instead of the onion powder suggested by some, I sauteed some green onion tops with the fennel instead. This has been added to our Thanksgiving menu for this year, yum!

Strawberry/Rhubarb Crumb Pie
So easy and so good! Made it for a Harvest Supper and it was the first pie finished off! My family is begging for another one. Used frozen strawberries and rhubarb from this summer's garden and it came out great. I did add a tablespoon of cornstarch, per the other reviewers' suggestion,and it came out just right, moist and not overly juicy.

Simple Garlic and Basil Pesto
A good starter recipe, though I found it bland, having left out the chili powder, which my family doesn't like. To brighten the flavor, I added some fresh lemon juice and some sea salt. Then, it was awesome! I doubled the recipe and froze quite a bit for winter.
