Soba with Toasted Sesame Seed Sauce

Reviewed: May 14, 2009

Soo-ba yummie! I added a veggie stir-fry as recommended by others (carrots, broccoli, onions, mushrooms, & baked tofu); and poured on a mixture of soy sauce, sesame oil, sugar, & fresh ginger at the very end. I liked the presentation, and turns out those soba noodles are pretty nutritious and high in protein. I'd definitely like to use this recipe again. Thanks!

Spinach Chick Pea Curry

Reviewed: May 12, 2009

Tasty curry, I accidentally forgot to buy the creamed corn, and therefore omitted it from my batch, but it still turned out ok. And make sure you know what level of spiciness is the curry paste (as mine turned out way too spicy with just two spoonfuls of red curry paste). But I would definitely like to make this recipe again.

Oatmeal Chocolate Chip Cake

Reviewed: Feb. 24, 2008

Super moist and tasty! I accidentally over-baked them just a tad, even still I really enjoyed this cake. Next time I might try cutting down the sugar content and substituting butter for applesauce.

Pope's Valentine Cookies

Reviewed: Feb. 14, 2008

Pretty ok. It was very simple and straightforward to make. It wasn't super tasty, but i guess it was alright as far as basic sugar cookies go.

MMMMM... Brownies

Reviewed: Mar. 2, 2007

No joke people. These brownies really are as good as (or better than) brownies from a box. Crispy on top, chewy in the middle, and wonderfully chocolaty. I added a handful of extra chocolate chips into the batter before pouring into the pan to add texture. I was a little concerned with my progress while melting the chocolate chips in the pot and adding the eggs, because the mixture looked dry and was difficult to stir, but I stuck with it and they turned out delish.

Sourdough Tomato Bread

Reviewed: Oct. 1, 2006

pretty darned good! It's a simple recipie that turns out nice, but I added a few extra bits to make it a little more interesting. I mixed in some oregano, chopped sundried tomatoes, and diced pepper-jack cheese bits before the flour. Plus, I used half wheat/half white flour, to make it more wholesome. Delicious & very pretty color! It was devoured & commended at the dinner party I attended!

The Ultimate Chocolate Chip Cookie

Reviewed: Sep. 27, 2006

pretty darn ultimate! I substituted applesauce for the shortening and used 1 part whole wheat/1 part white flour to make a slightly healthier version-- still very delicious & moist!

Scrumptious Chocolate Cake

Reviewed: Aug. 22, 2006

nice cake- not just the regular boring chocolate cake here. I halved the recipie to make a smaller layered cake with the frosting in between layers. but the frosting recipie did not turn out well for me at all. it was not smooth at all, so i had to add a little more milk and some melted chocolate chips to make a usable consistency. other than that, it was a very nice little cake!

Microwave Caramel Popcorn

Reviewed: Jul. 15, 2006

Pretty darn good. I definitely agree that the timings need to be adjusted to fit your appliances & taste. I mixed the popcorn & caramel goo in a big plastic tub instead of the paper bag, and zapped it in the microwave for about 30 seconds after mixing it all together well to melt the caramel onto the popcorn. It's a yummie snack that i would make again!
