Beaker's Vegetable Barley Soup

Reviewed: Nov. 6, 2009

Good basic recipe with a different slant on taste. A teaspoon of curry powder is way too much as it was overpowering. Definitely too much barley too cause it was more like vegetables with a little broth than a soup/stew. If I made it again I would sprinkle just a bit of curry and cut the barley to 1/2 cup (or add more broth).

Rhubarb Crisp

Reviewed: May 12, 2009

A little sugar added to the topping made it even tastier. Hubby said it is better than his mom's rhubarb pie. I'm not a fan of rhubarb but I loved this! Definitely a keeper.

Roasted Red Pepper Tapenade

Reviewed: Dec. 30, 2008

Loved it! It definitely needs to chill at least the 2 hours so that the flavors blend. I let mine set overnight. Made it for Christmas and everyone demanded the recipe. Thanks.

French Onion Soup With Browned Garlic

Reviewed: Nov. 13, 2008

The sherry made this way too sweet and I didn't even use a whole cup. It might be better with a good red wine instead but I doubt I will make it again.

Vegan Black Bean Soup

Reviewed: Oct. 17, 2008

Added a splash of lime juice and hot pepper sauce for more flavor since I found this soup bland. It is an okay soup but not great.

Artichoke, Cheese and Olive Antipasto

Reviewed: Sep. 26, 2008

I really like this and everyone that tasted it wanted the recipe. I used part smoked and part regular provolone. Instead of putting it in a jar to marinate, I used a plastic bag and shook it periodically. That way, everything got covered with the yummy liquid.

Artichoke Salsa

Reviewed: Sep. 26, 2008

Loved it. I seeded the tomatoes before chopping them then added a little liquid from the artichokes. This is a keeper. Thanks.

Fig and Olive Tapenade

Reviewed: Jul. 19, 2008

There is something in the recipe that shouldn't be there - perhaps the garlic? I tried it multiple times but I didn't like it at all.

Barbeque Tempeh Sandwiches

Reviewed: Jan. 25, 2007

This was okay but wasn't much different than baked beans. As a time saver, I used frozen peppers that has a mix of colored peppers and onions.

Vegetable Cheese Soup I

Reviewed: Oct. 10, 2006

The celery seed made it a little bitter so next time I'll just use chopped sauted celery. Good basic recipe though. Will definitely make it again with various veggie additions.

Roasted Tomato Salsa I

Reviewed: Sep. 12, 2006

Didn't like it the first day, but after it set overnight I loved it. Roasted the tomatoes whole (took longer than 10 mins because I wanted charred) but poked a hole in the skin to allow some liquid to drain out. Drained the juice after roasting and made a salad dressing with it. Didn't core the tomatoes at all - why bother.. I added fresh minced garlic to it and used more onion than the recipe calls for.
