With adjustments based on reading all of the comments - these were very good. I was looking for a PBJ muffin for my kids' lunches. I will try some more just to see about less suagr but these are very good. I used 1.25 cups flour and .75 cups oatmeal instead of 2 cup flour. I used 1 cup of peanut butter. I added 2 T brown sugar and 1 T vanilla with the wet ingredients. I used only one T butter. It made 16 regular sized muffins. I made twleve with jelly in the middle (fill halfway, add jelly, and top off) and I got my kids to eat a jelly they otherwise do not like. The other four I put a banana slice in the middle and a few banana slices on top sprinkled with cinnamon sugar mix.

Potato Leek Soup III

Reviewed: Oct. 17, 2011

Good soup. We reduced the butter to half cup - but if I had a bunch more leeks, maybe would use more - hard to say for sure.

Garlic, Spinach, and Chickpea Soup

Reviewed: Oct. 5, 2011

I had "some" fresh spinach that I added to the onions and garlic step to precook based on certain reviews. I think it was less than half. I did 8 small-medium potatoes and cooked garbanzzo beans from dry. I think my dh will not like, my 4 year old doesn't like but i think it is passable. Tahini taste is a little strong.

Tomato-Cream Sauce for Pasta

Reviewed: Sep. 27, 2011

This was pretty good. I doubled it and blended one of the cans of tomatoes. Otherwise I followed the recipe pretty closely. I put "some" butter in rather than measuring it and added six garlic cloves - that is the only variant. I doubled it to toss with 5 mild sausages and 17 oz of pasta. Pretty good.

Refried Bean Enchiladas

Reviewed: Mar. 16, 2011

I was not precise with the amount of beans/cheese - but this was excellent. I think it may need more of the sauce part though.

Cinnamon Sugar Tortilla Delight

Reviewed: Jan. 4, 2011

Delicious way to use up an old tortilla but as we have only butter in the house - not exactly what I would call a low fat snack.

Butter Bean Veggie Soup

Reviewed: May 14, 2008

Good and could easily be done with any beans - I will likely try garbanzos next time. I found it took a little longer than 10 mins to get the carrot throughly cooked.

Wonderful Waffles

Reviewed: Apr. 20, 2008

good but not quite as spectacular as suggested by the other reviews. I did not separate the eggs - i have made enough different waffles to know this is a texture primarily thing. I also added 1 t. vanilla nd 1 t. almond per another reviewer and increased the butter and sugar by 50% by same reviewer. Good. smelled sweeter than they were - maybe that's a good thing, but I really did not taste the almond.

Harvest Pumpkin Soup

Reviewed: Dec. 27, 2007

very easy. Served without sour cream dollop. Suggest eating it first night as sitting overnight did not add anything to it. Pretty good but my dds (ages 2 and 4) did not like it. Particularly good with toast.

Tangy Pumpkin Soup with Green Chili Swirl

Reviewed: Dec. 27, 2007

Okay. not that tangy. Not likely to make again, in part due dh's distaste for pureed soup - in part because it wasn't all that.

Curried Pumpkin Soup

Reviewed: Dec. 27, 2007

Pretty good. Per one suggestion, I did not add the sugar and used different apples due to what I had on hand. Not very likely to make again simply becuase my dh does not like pureed soups. But, even still he liked the flavor.

Meatballs in Apple Butter

Reviewed: Dec. 18, 2007

Good. Easy. Note that 1/4 pound is for two people, so we did 3/4 pound and they went pretty well.

Fiesta Fry Pan Dinner

Reviewed: Sep. 26, 2007

Smelled really good while cooking, but was a little more bland than the smell would have suggested. We omitted cheese due to a milk allergy. Would suggest adding something to spice it up - maybe garlic and fajita seasoning, cumin, something like that. Might try again, but probably not.

Fiesta Fry Pan Dinner

Reviewed: Sep. 14, 2007

Has potential. My DH said it smelled great cooking, but was surprisingly not as flavorful as it smelled. Would add the basics next time, garlic, S&P, maybe onion powder. Good consistency and flavors, etc. I omitted the cheese due to a dairy intolerance in my little one.

Summerly Squash

Reviewed: Sep. 14, 2007

Very good. I added a little garlic powder and forgot the bay leaf. Really tasty. I served over brown rice with a roast chicken. Yum!

Chinese Roast Chicken with Gravy

Reviewed: Aug. 19, 2007

Easy. The chicken did not absorp as much flavor as I thought it would. I would pass on the gravy in the future - too salty and wasn't really used much. Of course, maybe with the gravy on the chicken I would not have noticed that the chicken wasn't as flavorful as expected. Maybe putting half the soy between skin and chicken and the rest on the skin?
