Onion, Garlic, Cheese Bread
Amazing bread machine/oven recipe. I used my bread machine to do all the kneading work, took about 1.5 hours. preheated my oven to about 350 and when dough was done, I dumped it onto a parchment paper on a cookie sheet and covered with a towel to rest for about 20min (while oven warmed). cooked for about 30-35 minutes and it came out smelling and tasting just like the cheese bread from my Great Harvest Bakery back home!! Also,a few quick notes, I did as others suggested and cut my (extra sharp Wisconsin) cheddar into small cubes and added near the end of the kneading cycle on my bread machine, probably would have been okay to add at the beginning too. didn't have onion flakes so i used a few tsp of onion powder, still tasted great. Also only had two cups of bread flour so I used the last cup as AP flour and it was fine! tasted just like a fancy restaurant style bread!! thank you.

Tofu Chocolate Pudding
OMG! This was amazing. My husband and I are dieting and I was looking for interesting desserts we could eat, and found this. I new I would probably enjoy it as I'm a vegetarian. but my husband (who definitely is NOT vegetarian) couldn't stop raving about it, even asked to bring some leftovers to work. I did use light silken tofu, but otherwise no changes, threw it all in my cuisinart and blended put it into two corning bowls and put it in the fridge before dinner, by the time we were done and ready it was Perfect!! will definitely make again.

Ciabatta Bread
this was amazing. I added the ingredients in the order of warm water and yeast first with the sugar and let that sit for a few minutes to proof then I added the flour and the salt on top so that it is added in last during the mixing cycle (salt can kill the yeast if added to early). I then dumped it all out onto a floured cutting board and covered for about 15 minutes to settle, and then used a sharp knife to cut into four long loaves of bread. I was looking for a good bruschetta size loaf, and they came out so moist and fluffy, perfect! Do make sure you spritz them every 3-5 minutes and you will get nicely browned and not to crunchy outside, I also baked the smaller long loaves for only about 20 minutes. So good, will definitely make this one of my regulars!! You could add fresh herbs or garlic, I can imagine the possibilities, but its also perfect on its own. In fact, i'm going to get another piece! Yum!!
