Robert's Rosemary Rub

Reviewed: Dec. 7, 2009
This rub didn't add much flavor to our steaks. The recipe did not specify if you need to let the steaks steep in the herbs and spices, so we rubbed and grilled right away. Maybe letting everything meld for a while would work better for us?

Herbed Mushrooms with White Wine

Reviewed: Dec. 7, 2009
An excellent side for our steak. I was worried the little amount of oil wasn't going to work, but the mushrooms turned out perfectly cooked and so flavorful.

Linguine Pasta with Shrimp and Tomatoes

Reviewed: Dec. 3, 2009
1lb of pasta is too much for this dish. Shrimp were delicious. My dh, who's doing dishes, is complaining about the three big dirty pans.

Savory Kale, Cannellini Bean, and Potato Soup

Reviewed: Oct. 13, 2009
I'm the first reviewer to make this recipe exactly as written, and it is delicious. I'm sure the additions noted would also be good, but as-is, this is a hearty, healthy soup.

Guacamole

Reviewed: Oct. 13, 2009
Nice and onion-y. Great fresh taste with the cilantro. The pinch of cayenne adds flavor but not heat.

Ronaldo's Beef Carnitas

Reviewed: Oct. 11, 2009
Smelled great while cooking, but the meat was very difficult to shred and had no flavor. None. We followed the recipe exactly. What to do with the leftovers? I'll probably mix the meat with BBQ sauce for sandwiches.

Garlicky Green Beans with Mushrooms

Reviewed: Sep. 29, 2009
Doubled the mushrooms, added a little olive oil. Tasty, relatively healthy side dish.

Marinated Pork Chops

Reviewed: Sep. 29, 2009
Juicy with good flavor. I let the chops marinate for two days, and the ingredients did not overwhelm or toughen the pork.

Elegant Penne with Asparagus and Shrimp

Reviewed: Sep. 10, 2009
The wine and lemon juice made the very thin 'sauce' too acidic for us (If I made this again I wouldn't include the lemon juice). We added sauteed mushrooms.

Janet's Rich Banana Bread

Reviewed: Sep. 10, 2009
Dang it, that's good! Sliced bananas as instructed, but folding them into the mixture squished them a bit. Had a slice straight out of the pan with butter - yum, but this morning I had a toasted slice with honey nut cream cheese... Yummm!

Pasta with Fresh Tomatoes and Corn

Reviewed: Sep. 9, 2009
Orzo was a good pasta choice. Tasted the mixture hot last night and did not like it at all - way too vinegary. Had it cold today for lunch - delicious.

Mama's Best Broiled Tomato Sandwich

Reviewed: Aug. 31, 2009
Yum, yum, YUM! I didn't marinate the tomato slices - it seemed like such a shame to hide their flavor under a vinegar and oil blanket. The mayo is to die for - you still taste the tomato, but it is... just yum. Hubby loved too.

Pork Chop and Feta Skillet

Reviewed: Aug. 31, 2009
This combination of flavors did not work for us - too tangy.

Risotto with Asparagus

Reviewed: Aug. 28, 2009
This was my first attempt at making risotto at home, and it turned out very nicely (if I may say so myself). Just before adding the first cup of broth I set the timer for 20 minutes - this kept me on track and made for perfectly cooked rice. I'll try using mushrooms next time.

Southwest Summer Pork Chops

Reviewed: May 24, 2009
The rub added a nice flavor, but we dipped our bites in more BBQ sauce. I decreased the cumin slightly because I don't care for it.

Black Bean Avocado Salad

Reviewed: May 24, 2009
A little too cumin-y for me. I added more lime juice and salt, which would up my rating to 4*.

Slow Cooker Sausage with Sauce

Reviewed: May 21, 2009
Not good. We used fresh medium-hot italian sausages from our local market and Ragu chunky veggie sauce. I do not see us eating the leftovers.

Caramelized Onions on the Grill

Reviewed: May 16, 2009
Packet was on fire after 20 minutes. We're pretty handy with the grill, so I don't know what went wrong.

Salad with Artichokes

Reviewed: May 1, 2009
The dressing was way, way too vinegar-y - it ruined the whole salad for us. I'll try leftovers with a bottled italian.

Jen's Heavenly Egg Salad

Reviewed: May 1, 2009
I grew up eating egg salad with sweet pickles and mayo (yum!), so I found this savory salad definitely different. It was good, but we both thought it needed more wet ingredients.
