Spicy Bean Salsa

Reviewed: Jan. 3, 2011

completly addictive! I may add a bit more garlic and more jalapeno peppers next time though, or add it when I get home from work today... even my husband who HATES the texture of beans likes this..

WONDERFUL! I think next time I will use less powderd sugar in the frosting as we thought it was a bit too sweet.. I will leave the pecans out of the frosting also, was a pain in the butt to spread it around... I may try it with rasins next time also.. but overall it was awesome just the way it was

Pizza Dough I

Reviewed: Apr. 7, 2010

very very good! this is the only recipe that we use for dough... I have even made it healthier by doing 1 1/2 cup white flour and 1 1/2 cup whole wheat pastry flour. I add in some seasoning to the dough just for some added flavor and use olive oil instead of vegetable oil. We also prebake the crust for 10 mins to keep it from getting soggy

Tuscan Soup

Reviewed: Mar. 15, 2010

so so so easy to make! I used XXX-hot venison sausage (what i had on hand)... the only other change that I made was adding a clove of minced garlic... will be added to our soup rotation for the fall/winter months!

Catherine's Spicy Chicken Soup

Reviewed: Jan. 11, 2010

I chose to leave out the sour cream and have that on the side... the first night I put a spoonful of sour cream in it, it was ok... I had it the next day without sour cream, my husband and I both prefer it without.. I added a good squirt of hot sauce to my bowl of soup, I LOVE spicy food... made a lot of soup, have three containers in the chest freezer downstairs for last second meals! thanks for the wonderful recipe!

Downeast Maine Pumpkin Bread

Reviewed: Dec. 28, 2009

well after having this one saved for many years I finally tried it... very very good... I made 12 muffins (some for husband to take to work for fellow correctional officers) and a loaf pan for us to have Christmas morning... came out great! did the butter with cinnamon sugar ontop and even put on some red and green sugar crystals... would not change one thing!

Chicken Tortellini Soup

Reviewed: Oct. 15, 2009

ok so it is just my husband and myself so I just use most recipes as an "idea"... I dumped one can of reduced sodium chicken broth, one can of veggie broth, one can of fire roasted tomatoes and shredded chicken from the night before... I had a bag of frozen tortellini so I put that it... no spinach in the freezer like I thought so I had to leave that out.... overall we will make this again and again, very good and so very easy!

These were ok, for us then need some "tweeking", next time will try salted nuts, I believe that this will bring out a lot of flavor in the bars... good recipe though

Peppery Shrimp and Rice

Reviewed: Mar. 26, 2009

Well this recipe was a big hit with me as I LOVE LOVE spicy food, I was really tired when I was making this so I just didn't think to hold back on the HEAT for my husband! Poor guy.... I added a full tablespoon of Sriracha and the full amount of red pepper! Next time I will make this when I am not exhausted and not use so much heat! lol keep the heat on the side for me ;-)

Pork with Peach and Black Bean Salsa

Reviewed: Feb. 26, 2009

Very good! I did add a bit more salsa and beans to this as it was a little too dry to reheat (husband gets off of work at 10pm). Added home made chicken stock instead of beer also, just was not into beer last night.. overall a WONDERFUL dish not to mention quick and very very easy!

San Francisco Sourdough Bread

Reviewed: Dec. 11, 2008

WOW!!! I have NEVER made bread before so I was very shocked at how good these loafs came out! I did one with onions and poppy seeds and the other with sesame seeds... I will know for the next time to cover the top of the loaf with onions for the last 10 mins, they do tend to get a little too dark... I used the herman sourdough starter which is amazing to say the least!
