Nanaimo Bars III

Reviewed: Dec. 14, 2009

Excellent I'm an Island girl and these are perfect. I reduce the sugar from 2cups to 11/2 cups for the middle layer, just so they are not too sweet. Thanks

They taste wonderful I added 2 tsp of mint extract and coated them in white chocolate with peppermint sprinkles (festive colors) I have never made truffles and have NO idea how to coat them and make them look pretty! I skewered them on kabob sticks and coated them then spinning/dripping off the excess chocolate but getting them off I always left a mark in the chocolate and had to do touch ups. Any suggestions?

Simple Scones

Reviewed: Nov. 7, 2009

I love these! I didn't ever believe I could do better than the store bought stuff but defiantly worth making at home. I make them with the lemon zest and frozen blueberries they taste great I have made with frozen butter grated and just cold butter no difference in end product to me. Just use whichever I have at the time.

Pesto Sauce

Reviewed: Nov. 7, 2009

Excellent! It was wonderful as a spread on veggies or crackers. I halved the oil and replaced other half with chicken broth. I also followed another review and baked skinless boneless chicken breasts coated in this pesto sauce with grated mozarella cheese on top. Yum! A New family favorite. I served with bow-tie pasta and fresh local tomatoes. Thanks

Northwoods Wild Rice

Reviewed: Nov. 18, 2008

I loved this recipe. I made it with a mix of whole grains and double smoked bacon. I made it for the first time when my husbands boss was over for dinner and it was a hit I served it with garlic/sun dried tomato grilled Salmon. Will make again
