Cilantro-Lime Rice

Reviewed: Jan. 13, 2009

All I can say is WOW! Who knew something so simple could be so good. This one is definitely going to become a regular menu item for our family "Mexican fiestas!"

This is very good, but it seems to be somewhat bland given the amount of spice that the recipe calls for. I have made it twice now and I tweaked the spicing a little to suit my own tastes adding a pinch of cinnamon and about 1/2 tsp. of curry powder along with tripling the cumin and tumeric. I don't know if the leftovers are good or not . . . I never have any!

Easy Soda Cracker Bars

Reviewed: May 29, 2007

Not half bad. I read an earlier review that commented on the lack ofsaltiness in the crust layer, so I added about 1/8 tsp salt to the cracker crumb-butter mixture. I also threw in some butterscotch chips along with the chocolate chips. Very rich with a salty note to the crust that helped to balance the the sweetness of the filling. Next time I think I'll leave the butterscotch chips out though.

Carrot Cake Muffins with Cinnamon Glaze

Reviewed: May 1, 2006

These are GOOD! I just got them out of the oven and couldn't wait to taste. I added 2/3 cup of chopped walnuts and since I didn't have any crushed pineapple I substituted a can of mandarin orange segments that I crushed up with my fingers. These are great. I don't know if they're going to last long enough to be glazed!!!
