Peppered Corn Bread

Reviewed: Mar. 13, 2009
I omitted the red pepper because I didn't have any. Doesn't matter - Husband went CRAZY for this!! I'm not much of a baker (actually, I'm horrible at baking), but these turned out amazingly light and fluffy. I think the key is to not over-work the batter; just fold everything in together gently. I baked the mixture in a muffin cup sheet thing for about 20 mins. Perfect. As I type, he's eating them cold, drizzled in honey...

Slow Cooker Baked Beans

Reviewed: Mar. 13, 2009
Traditional American-style baked beans are always way too sweet for my Brit palate, so I cut back significantly on the brown sugar and syrup (just a pinch/splash of each). After stirring in the ketchup, it was still a bit too sweet for me so I added a smidge of apple cider vinegar. The sweet/tart vinegar perfectly complemented the spicy Colman's English mustard I used. The smokey ham hock flavor took it to another level. Thanks!

Chiles en Nogada (Stuffed Poblano Chile Peppers)

Reviewed: Mar. 10, 2009
I made a few changes due to personal preference and what I had on hand. I used chicken breasts, and omitted the raisins, nutmeg and walnuts (we're not huge fans, and I didn't really like the idea of them in this recipe). I upped the amount of garlic, and also added some Adobo seasoning. I topped the sauced peppers with some Mexican cheese blend, and broiled them til the cheese was bubbly. Served it with tomato/cilantro rice. Wow, what an awesome meal! Husband couldn't get enough. Thanks, Lucy Loo!

Grilled Mahi Mahi with Roasted Pepper Sauce and Cilantro Pesto

Reviewed: Mar. 10, 2009
The only things I did differently were to use ahi tuna steaks, and I cooked them on the Foreman grill. This dish is quite a lot of work but, man, it is so worth it! The sauce and pesto work beautifully together, and look so pretty. Really amazing flavors. I can't recommend this enough. Thanks so much!

Amy's Cilantro Cream Sauce

Reviewed: Mar. 9, 2009
I made this with one large bunch of cilantro, and fresh tomatillos. I also threw in a couple of small jalapenos for some kick. The flavor is great but it is a little too thin/runny. I'm going to add another half block of cream cheese tomorrow. Thanks!

Vietnamese Aromatic Lamb Chops

Reviewed: Mar. 9, 2009
I marinated the chops for about 8 hours because I didn't want the lamb flavor to be overwhelmed. I roasted them for 30 minutes but 20 would have been ample. They turned out a little dry, but the flavor was amazing. Thanks!

Grilled Tropical Tuna Steaks

Reviewed: Mar. 5, 2009
I made this with Apricot-Pineapple preserves as that's all I could find at the store, and I increased the amount of fresh cilantro. I marinated the fish (a shark steak) for two hours, which was perfect for us. The shark had a super firm/ dense texture which I wasn't especially crazy about, but the flavors came together really well. I reserved a couple of Ts of marinade to pour over the cooked fish. Served it over soba noodles with sesame green beans. Not bad at all. Thanks, dakota!

Butter Chickpea Curry

Reviewed: Mar. 4, 2009
I fiddled around with the seasonings a bit, plus I threw in some cauliflower florets that needed using up. I also didn't bother pre-cooking the potatoes - just diced them into small cubes, browned them in the oil along with the onion and garlic, then simmered everything for about 30 mins until they were done. If I were to make this again, I would omit the tomato soup, and use tomato paste and water instead - the soup made it too sweet for me. It still turned out good though - don't forget to sprinkle on some fresh cilantro. Good stuff! Thanks!

Rice Pudding (Kheer)

Reviewed: Mar. 3, 2009
This is a great basic recipe but if you're going to make this kheer, please read the other reviews!! Mostly, cut back on the milk and sugar, and rinse but don't soak the rice. I make this with full fat milk, and I also like to add a few small strips of orange peel to the mix (just personal preference). I'm not a dessert person, but I can eat kheer for lunch and dinner every couple of months.

Green Onion Biscuits

Reviewed: Mar. 3, 2009
Turned out ok but needed more salt, more onion powder, and I used a combination of green onions and fresh chives. If I were to make them again, I would add garlic powder to the biscuit dough, and brush the tops with garlic butter.

Thai Chicken Pizza

Reviewed: Mar. 3, 2009
This didn't work for us. We love Thai food, we love chicken satay... It was just too weird on a pizza crust. I'm glad other people liked it but I guess we'll stick with our usual pepperoni/ bacon/ onion/ cheesefest combo. Thanks anyway!

Warm Bok Choy, Beet and Feta Salad

Reviewed: Feb. 27, 2009
This was only my second or third time eating fresh beets, and I'm still undecided. I kinda liked this salad but I needed to sprinkle on some apple cider vinegar just to give it that twang that I associate with (pickled) beets. The vinegar contrasted nicely with the cheese though also. I'll give the beets another try but don't think I'll ever be a real fan. Thanks though!

Easy, Cheesy Tortellini Bake

Reviewed: Feb. 27, 2009
With some changes, this turned out pretty good. As other reviewers have already said, you need to either increase the amount of tortellini or cut back on the alfredo and marinara. I made it with fresh spinach, and also added some finely-diced fresh onion and some red pepper flakes to the mix. We ate it with cheesy garlic bread and a leafy green salad. It wasn't anything amazing but it was definitely a quick and easy meal. Thanks!

Pork Marsala

Reviewed: Feb. 27, 2009
This turned out WAY better than I expected. I used very thick pork chops (didn't bother to pound them) and ended up pan-frying them for about 40 minutes on low (turning every ten minutes or so). I was worried they were going to be tough but I couldn't have been more wrong. The meat was SO tender and succulent, and was perfectly complemented by the mushrooms and Marsala. Awesome recipe. Thanks, Junnieann!

Easy Indian Butter Chicken

Reviewed: Feb. 27, 2009
Personally, I don't really see the point in making this dish if you're going to cut way back on the butter/substitute milk for the heavy cream etc etc. The only changes I made were to increase the amount of seasonings, and I used tomato paste and water instead of tomato sauce. Served it over basmati rice with fresh cilantro sprinkled on top, and store-bought roti. Very good. Thanks!

Tomato 'n' Shrimp Pasta

Reviewed: Feb. 23, 2009
I made this with all the ingredients called for, but adjusted the quantities so it was how we like them. Personally, I added the raw shrimp to the tomato mix, covered the pan, and let the shrimp cook in the sauce. I served it over anhel hair pasta with a sprinkle of freshly-snipped basil. Absolutely delicious. Thanks SO much!

Delicious Ahi Fish Burgers with Chives

Reviewed: Feb. 20, 2009
I should have read the other reviews - I made this as written, and it turned out pretty bland. Next time I'll add some soy sauce, green onions and sesame oil, and cut back on the egg. It definitely needs some kind of sauce - cilantro mayo would be good, I think.

Sausage Smothered in Red Cabbage

Reviewed: Feb. 18, 2009
I made this with a Pink Lady apple which I thought would be sweet enough, but I ended up adding a packet of Splenda to the mix. If I were to make this again I would probably add a splash of apple juice instead of lemon. I'm not a huge fan of caraway seeds but a wee pinch would add some extra flavor. Thanks!

The Meatball that Fell Off the Table

Reviewed: Feb. 18, 2009
I didn't have time to saute the onions so I threw them in raw. I cut back on the nutmeg (not a huge fan) and omitted the parsley (hate it). The meatballs turned out a bit dense and stodgy but that was my fault for being heavy-handed with the mixing/rolling. This was a decent meal, but I think I prefer meatballs in a tomato/marinara sauce. Thanks though!

Cilantro Lime Cod

Reviewed: Feb. 14, 2009
Prior to baking the cod, I sprinkled it with a generous pinch of lemon pepper, and let it sit for a couple of hours. I didn't bother softening the onions and garlic - I just diced them super-finely, and threw them in along side the fish in the foil. If I were to make this again, I would open the foil packet for the last 15 minutes of cook-time. Thanks!
