Plain and Simple Sourdough Bread

Reviewed: Oct. 12, 2009
I don't have a bread machine, and this recipe still works great with homemade sourdough starter. I usually double it, and use 3 cups or white flour and 2 1/3 cups of whole wheat. After 2 sessions of kneading and letting it rise, it comes out of the oven wonderfully fluffy with a fantastic crispy crust

Peppy's Pita Bread

Reviewed: Jun. 16, 2009
Fantastic! I did half whole wheat and half white flour and they turned out perfectly. I'll definitely make this recipe again.

Red Skinned Potato Salad

Reviewed: Jun. 12, 2009
This is fantastic. I tweaked a bit and added some dill, fresh parsley and green onion. Also, the second time around, I substituted the mayonnaise for sour cream and roasted garlic dip, making it a little bit more low fat.

Basic Crepes

Reviewed: May 23, 2009
Perfect proportions and everything, I just mixed dry with dry, and then added the eggs at the end. This makes it not turn out so lumpy.

Homemade Bagels

Reviewed: Apr. 19, 2009
Awesome recipe. The second time I made them, I used half whole wheat flour and half white flour to make it a little bit denser. I also doubled it as my room mates can vacuum these like nobody's business.

Pie Crust IV

Reviewed: Apr. 19, 2009
Incredibly easy recipe, tastes delicious. The only thing I would do is add slightly less water as an entire cup makes it a little runny. Also, chill in the fridge for about a half hour before rolling it out and it's much easier to work with.

Good Old Fashioned Pancakes

Reviewed: Apr. 14, 2009
These were tasty, but not as fluffy as in the picture. I'm sure I did everything as written, but they just didn't want to get that lovely and poofy. About halfway through the batter, I added some mashed up banana to the mix. Delicious!

Amish Bread

Reviewed: Feb. 5, 2009
I don't have a bread maker, so I followed the comments of some of the other reviews and did it in my oven. I used 3 tsp of yeast, dissolved in the warm water for about 10 minutes or so, and 3 cups of flour. Mixed everything up, let it rise for about 30 minutes, kneaded it and let it rise again for 30 minutes, then put it in the oven for about 25 minutes at 350 degrees. So simple and SO tasty!

Chocolate Chocolate Chip Cookies I

Reviewed: Jan. 31, 2009
By themselves, these were amazing. The second time I made them, I went a little nuts and added not only the semi-sweet chips, but some Peanut butter Chipits, chopped macademia nuts, and some all natural peanut butter. They weren't as fluffy, but I thought they were even tastier. These will be my contribution to the 10 or so guys here tomorrow for the Superbowl.

Grilled Halibut with Cilantro Garlic Butter

Reviewed: Jan. 27, 2009
I took some hints from other reviewers and marinated this in olive oil, lime juice, and salt and pepper for a few hours before hand, and it turned out with a lovely subtle flavour. My boyfriend hates cilantro, and he finished this, went back for seconds, and said he loved it. Granted, that was before he knew what was in it... ;)

Apple Stuffed Chicken Breast

Reviewed: Jan. 13, 2009
It was alright, but pretty bland. I took some of the suggestions from the other reviews and added cinnamon, thyme, basil, garlic, and a little bit of brown sugar to the apple mix and that tasted great. my problem was with the chicken. It didn't seem to absorb any of the bite of the wine. Next time, I'll marinate it in some olive oil and spices first.

Rugelach III

Reviewed: Jan. 7, 2009
These were tasty, but incredibly messy. It took me almost as much time to get the baked jam off the greased tray as it did for me to make the cookies.

Oatmeal Peanut Butter Cookies III

Reviewed: Jan. 3, 2009
I did what some of the other people here did and doubled the dough recipe, but made the filling as is. That way, it made more than about 20 cookies. This recipe is quick and delicious, and my boyfriend promptly ate almost all of them.

Butternut Squash Soup

Reviewed: Nov. 9, 2008
I followed this recipe exactly, and it was delicious! So creamy and rich... a little bit too rich. I tried using light cream cheese, but still had to half the amount. Still, delicious!

Downeast Maine Pumpkin Bread

Reviewed: Nov. 9, 2008
I figured I would give it 5 stars just based on how it smelled in the oven, but from the way it tastes, I wish I could give it 6. Best pumpkin bread I've ever had, with no changes to the recipe.

Delicious Ham and Potato Soup

Reviewed: Oct. 10, 2008
This was delicious! My boyfriend went back for thirds. I added more ham, some garlic powder and fresh parsley, and it was mouthwatering. This is such a versatile recipe that I'm sure it'd be mouth watering no matter what you added to it.

Easy Mexican Casserole

Reviewed: Sep. 24, 2008
Wonderful. I did make some changes. I added liberal amounts of chili powder to the beef and salsa mixture while it was simmering to give it that chili kick, as I didn't have chili beans on hand. Instead of chili beans, I used half black beans and half chick beans, and I also added some corn. My boyfriend ate half of the entire dish, so this is definitely one I'll make again.
