Seared Sea Scallops

Reviewed: Nov. 10, 2009
Pretty tasty. I omited the lemon pepper and added some much needed garlic. Scallop cooking tip (from my chef friend) - Since most of us overcook the first side, cut the cooking time on the other side in half. This will give you moist, delicious scallops every time!

I did a baked pasta variation of this recipe and it was delightful. I love the taste combination, and will definitely make this again!

Radish Top Soup

Reviewed: Jul. 25, 2009
A very nice, healthy base. I added fresh herbs, spices, turnip greens and sliced radishes to the soup. I'll definitely use this many more times and play around with different combinations. Yum.

Seafood And Cabbage Salad

Reviewed: May 10, 2009
Delicious, easy and adaptable. Be aware that the recipe will heat up over night and the quanitities in this recipe make a lot of servings. My 8 guests loved it so much that I sent some home with all of them.

Mediterranean Quinoa

Garlic and Thai Basil Spaghetti

Reviewed: Dec. 9, 2008
This didn't work for us. We thought the taste was too bland, probably because I didn't use enough basil. The recipe needs to be more specific about how much (i.e. packed, rough weight). I might try this sauce again with rice noodles (more basil, sans provolone and butter). But I would highly recommend a regular pesto if you're making a traditional pasta.

Fruity Guacamole

Reviewed: Nov. 29, 2008
I adore guacamole so I've tried it with mangoes in the past. But I never thought of adding peaches, plums, or pomegranate. This is one of my new favorites!

Pumpkin Smoothie

Reviewed: Oct. 26, 2008
Great idea. I loved it both with or without banana. A hint of vanilla also tasted wonderful. Thank you for sharing!

Brussels Sprouts with Green Peppers

Reviewed: Oct. 23, 2008
Tasty surprise. Garlic, a few mixed spices and freshly grated romano cheese made this a nice side dish. I'll use it again and play with it. I think sweet potatoes or turnip could be tasty.

Cranberry Sauce

Reviewed: Oct. 19, 2008
Delicious. I juiced an orange and substituted 1/2 with water. I also included cinnamon (watch your proportions) and slow cooked for 40 minutes to evaporate liquid. Used pure maple syrup, too. YUM!

Cheesy Baked Cauliflower

Reviewed: Oct. 19, 2008
Amazing! Definitely cut the cauliflower steam time and increase the cheese. I replaced butter with olive oil and cut down on the mustard. I also added garlic and shallots. Despite our Thanksgiving feast there was virtually no cauliflower left. Thanks!

Baked Sweet Potato Sticks

Reviewed: Oct. 19, 2008
Not bad. The taste was a little incomplete and I wasn't fond of the texture. They were less crispy than I anticipated. But I will keep this recipe as a starting point for next time I make sweet potatoes.

Green Bean and Potato Casserole

Reviewed: Oct. 2, 2008
This recipe was ok. I used fresh potatoes and beans, which were good. I wouldn't use cream of celery again (I needed a veg. option), and I might even use 1/2 can.

Low Carb Cauliflower Leek Soup

Reviewed: Oct. 2, 2008
This soup is outstanding! I would recommend the broth sit a little above the vegetable mix - 6 cups should be enough. I was generous with the leek and garlic, and also substituted some of the (vegetarian) broth for water to reduce the sodium. Fantastic!

Cilantro and Garlic Potatoes

Reviewed: Sep. 21, 2008
I had a little trouble getting the potatoes to cook evenly (I don't have a deep fryer). Next time I'll add the cilantro nearer to the end to properly capture its flavour. Otherwise, yummy.

Brussels Sprouts in Mustard Sauce

Very simple and good. Take the sauce off the burner a little earlier and let thicken.

Homemade Tomato Sauce I

Reviewed: Sep. 9, 2008
I used this recipe to make my first batch of tomato sauce ever. It was a good base, but some of the comments were helpful for making adjustments. I suggest increasing the proportion of spices, omitting the fake, canned tomato paste, and simmering to thicken. I am really pleased with how it turned out!

Peppers Roasted with Garlic, Basil and Tomatoes

Reviewed: Sep. 9, 2008
Simple and delicious! This is the perfect recipe for Sept. and October when the ingredients are in season. I recommend letting the garlic, basil, tomato mix sit a little before baking in the peppers. I also put a little salt and pepper in the mix, which added to the flavour and cooked 5 min longer than suggested. All changes worked well and I will definitely make this again. Very soon!
