Jalapeno Strawberry Jam

Reviewed: Nov. 6, 2011
This was my first experience with making jam and it turned out beautifully. Unfortunately my jalapenos molded before I got around to making this so I omitted them. My husband and I freaked at the amount of sugar it called for so we stopped at 4 cups. I was afraid it wouldn't gel but not so - It's perfect. Next time I can't wait to make it spicy :)

Spiced Chai Concentrate

Reviewed: Nov. 6, 2011
Delicious!!! No reason to ever buy chai concentrate. I omitted the black pepper but other than that I prepared as written.

Split-Second Cookies

Reviewed: Nov. 6, 2011
Mine turned out flat but that didn't stop us from devouring them. Great shortbread-type flavor.

Chicken Wild Rice Soup

Reviewed: Nov. 6, 2011
Hearty and delicious! Through a shopping error we only had boneless thighs on hand. The extra flavor (gamey-ness) of the thighs really complimented the herbs and veggies even though we're strictly a chicken breast type family. I used leeks because we had them and omitted the creamy soup and it turned out fantastic. We'll make this again and again.

Real Hummus

Reviewed: Nov. 6, 2011
My husband and I made an amped up garlic version and it is out of this world! I also added some diced chipotle (on top, not mixed in) and it is so good I will never buy pre-made again. We were inspired to soak our own chickpeas because this recipe turned out so well.

Ranch Dressing II

Reviewed: Nov. 6, 2011
This is the ranch dressing recipe I've been looking for - herby not sweet and can be thinned with milk or kept thick for dipping. I was out of chives so I upped the onion powder to 1/2 tsp, upped the garlic to 1/2 tsp as well because we're garlic lovers and omitted the pepper due to dietary concerns. Still a very nice flavor profile. I halved the mayo and just thinned slightly with 2 Tbsp whole milk. Perfect!

Tahini Cookies

Reviewed: Nov. 4, 2011
Crumbly, but pretty good. I added flax seeds since I had them but next time I'll add raisins or dates, maybe figs. I really like the wholesome flavor and I think a little more honey and more baking time will help firm them up.

Homemade Flour Tortillas

Reviewed: Sep. 29, 2011
Excellent - I wouldn't change a thing. Except that I used spelt flour with a smidge of xanthan gum to make up for the lack of gluten. Perfecto!

Mexican Sour Cream Rice

Reviewed: Sep. 22, 2011
Add a little bit more flavor and this dish is perfect. I added 1 Tbsp of taco seasoning and used HOT diced green chilies. Also I heard that cilantro gets bitter when chopped so I tore the leaves. Time consuming but I think it makes a difference. Excellent side dish or main dish if you add chopped chicken!

Salsa Chicken

Reviewed: Sep. 4, 2011
A family favorite already! This is a really simple recipe when you want a flavorful, simple and healthy chicken dish. Goes well with rice and beans ... pretty much like a taco shop dinner but way healthier! A no-fuss, FAST dinner that's in rotation.

Not bad but not special. I could do without the pasta.

Fat Free Refried Beans

Reviewed: Sep. 4, 2011
Unfortunately, I think the fat is what makes most refried beans so yummy.

Pickled Daikon Radish and Carrots

Reviewed: Sep. 4, 2011
Nice to find different flavors in pickling. My husband didn't even notice there were radishes in here. (He can't stand them.)

Wicked Garlic Tofu Saute

Reviewed: Sep. 4, 2011
Nice! My family loves garlic so this went over well. I used a tablespoon of arrowroot powder to thicken the sauce. Very good.

Terry's Texas Pinto Beans

Reviewed: Sep. 4, 2011
Great flavor in this recipe. I think my beans were too old so some ended up crunchy. I'll make this again and maybe try to make refries out of it.

Jalapeno Chicken

Reviewed: Sep. 4, 2011
Good flavor, repeatable. For two chicken breasts I would at least halve the rub and probably cut back the cinnamon a little bit more. The sauce was fine but I'd prefer to try it with fresh jalapenos next time. I think the can kept the sauce from thickening. It's nice to find a dish with flavor so I'll probably make this again with adjustments for the amount of chicken.

Pea Shoots and Chicken in Garlic Sauce

Reviewed: Aug. 29, 2011
Very mild dish but one that compliments the other dishes on the menu. I forgot to get pea shoots but I continued with the recipe anyway :) Due to dietary concerns I used spelt flour instead of cornstarch but added a tablespoon of arrowroot powder with the broth to thicken the sauce. Delicious - especially when paired with Kale and Adzuki Beans (on this site) and served with rice. Next time I'll add more garlic and maybe ginger and other spices if I plan to serve alone. Very nice and flexible dinner.

Kale and Adzuki Beans

Reviewed: Aug. 29, 2011
Yes, this was very salty as other reviewers stated and I used half the tamari it called for. Another reviewer mentioned having trouble with the beans. I didn't have any issues but I used "fresh" dried beans and with my limited experience, the beans cook up to a firmer texture than canned beans. I served this with rice and a chicken recipe from this site, Pea Shoots and Chicken in garlic Sauce (minus the pea shoots) - Incredible! The flavors melded perfectly and the other portions of the meal made up for the salt in this dish. I will make this again and again.
