Asparagus, Potato, and Onion Frittata
This was a lot of work and not worth the trouble. I followed the recipe exactly and it was very bland. The potato gets lost somewhere - volume probably would be better using those frozen shredded hash browns if you can eat them. I may use the ingredients again, with more onion and no potato and just add beaten eggs to the mix in the skillet to cook, like an omelette. A lot less work, dishes, mess and quicker.

Spicy Cucumber Soup
I didn't change the ingredient quantities except I doubled up on the cucumbers and it was still way too hot. If I make again I would cut out the cayenne and red pepper flakes and add cayenne to taste at the end. The curry powder may need adjusting too but the soup was so spicy it was hard to tell what the problem was. I've frozen the leftovers with a note to add milk or cream, so I haven't totally given up on it. The rating reflects the fact that IF I hadn't doubled up on the cucumbers, it wouldn't have been edible in our house, and I stress, we do like spicy food.

Garden Fresh Tomato Soup
I made it as stated except I didn't thicken it, it was thick enough. But, quite honestly, it was just as if it had come out of the well known red & white can, so it's just not something I'd bother making again. Uninteresting, and for the leftovers I'll have to add some excitement to it.
