Adrienne's Cucumber Salad

Reviewed: Apr. 21, 2009

I liked the flavor but I don't think I would call it a salad. My family thought they were pickles and they did taste like it. I'd serve it as a side, but not as a salad.

I like to review a recipe as it is written, not rate it with changes made. This was good but I wasn't as huge a fan as most. I would not bake it quite as long. I also prefer a more dense texture to a pound cake. This was lighter like a yellow cake. The flavor was good but it seemed very strong and syrupy sweet where it was soaked in, and lacking in the middle. Not bad but I think I'll keep looking.

French Bread

Reviewed: May 22, 2008

I actually forgot to do the third rise and it still worked out just fine. It was probably a bit more dense because of that, but I like it that way anyway. It does give 2 good sized loaves even though it doesn't look like it will at first. Great recipe, will make again. Oh, and butter on it is a must (for me)!

Reviewed: Dec. 24, 2007

I enjoyed this as is, and equally enjoyed some leftover salsa stirred into oatmeal!

Icelandic Christmas Cake

Reviewed: Dec. 23, 2007

At first I was only going to give this 3 stars because it was crumbly... But then I refrigerated it and it sliced wonderfully. It must be completely cool or you will have a mess. Nice flavor - I increased the lemon to 1 tsp, personal preferance. My husband loved it, so I guess I'll be making it again!

Icelandic Christmas Cake

Reviewed: Dec. 23, 2007

Great flavor, but what a mess! The very center was still a tiny bit gooey, and the rest was quite crumbly. I doubled the recipe and made two loaves. Maybe I shouldn't have.

Garlic Butter

Reviewed: Dec. 9, 2007

Sorry, only 1 star as it's written here. Drastically reduce the salt and it would probably be 5 stars.

Glazed Tofu Meatloaf

Reviewed: Apr. 5, 2006

A couple reviewers thought this was bland so I used the spicy tofu rather than the plain and it was good. Next time I would use the lo-sodium soy sauce. Very good - I'd make again and tweak it a little for personal taste.

Broccoli and Cauliflower Casserole

Reviewed: Nov. 10, 2004

I liked it well enough to make it again but I would cut the cheese in half next time. It was also good with chicken in it and french-fried onions on top.

Golden Sweet Cornbread

Reviewed: Apr. 30, 2004

I tried doubling it in a 9x13 and made a few changes to the ingredients. It worked great - this is what I did: 2 c flour, 2 c cornmeal, 1 c sugar, 1 1/2 tsp salt, 3 tsp baking powder, 3 eggs, 2 c BUTTERMILK, 2/3 c veg oil. (I didn't have to alter the baking time or temp.)
