Reviewed: Mar. 30, 2009
These are really good. I added a little orange food coloring to the glaze, which looked pretty good.

Hot Artichoke and Spinach Dip II

Reviewed: Nov. 4, 2007
This was a big hit at a potluck. The only change I made was to use fresh baby spinach, blanched for 30 seconds, instead of frozen spinach. I will definitely keep this dish in my arsenal of things to serve at parties!

Flank Steak Pinwheels

Reviewed: Dec. 22, 2004
This recipe is awesome! Pounding, piercing, and a long marinating time make this the most savory, tender flank steak I've ever eaten. The filling is delicious, and the pinwheel presentation makes this a great dish for company.

Caribbean Sweet Potato Salad

Reviewed: Dec. 22, 2004
Very unusual and delicious! I skipped the cukes and added a little extra lime juice and oil to the dressing. I'll make this one again.

Rollatini with Pork and Rosemary Filling

Reviewed: Sep. 25, 2004
Although they're not a snap to make, these chicken breasts are a nice change from ordinary chicken breast dishes. I think next time I will try tying them together with kitchen string instead of using toothpicks -- might help them stay together better. All in all, it makes really nice "fancy" chicken dish. Be sure to get them nice and browned on the outside to assure that the inner chicken meat is fully cooked...I had to nuke mine an extra minute after cutting it open to find slightly raw chicken inside.

Rich and Creamy Roasted Eggplant Soup

Reviewed: Feb. 7, 2004
Holy smokes, this one's a winner! I made a few changes -- used water instead of chicken broth, added a tablespoon of chopped fresh rosemary, and added a clove of pressed garlic just before serving. I used half and half instead of cream, but it was still deliciously rich. I can't wait to serve this one to company!

Kiwi Fruit Salsa

Reviewed: Jan. 25, 2004
This was pretty unusual. I served it as a dip, but I think it would be better as a topping for grilled pork or fish.

Pignoli Cookies I

Reviewed: Dec. 28, 2003
These came out absolutely delicious. I had to chill the dough for about 15 minutes before it was firm enough to form the cookies, but other than that everything turned out perfect!

Fruit Salsa

Reviewed: Dec. 7, 2003
This seemed like a strange combination of flavors, but it really makes a wonderful salsa...complex-tasting with no unpleasant clash of flavors. Very creative and delicious! I'll definitely make it again.

Washabinaros Chili

Reviewed: Nov. 12, 2003
This chili rocks! The wasabi, sausage, and multiple kinds of peppers really add depth of flavor. I always substitute ground beef with 2 cups of texturized vegetable protein (TVP) to make it a little healthier (add 2 extra cups of liquid if you try this). The beer I used was perfect for the recipe, too: Alaskan Brewery's Smoked Porter - they smoke the malt with alderwood before brewing...try it if you can find it. This will be added to my growing arsenal of awesome chili recipes from allrecipes...thanks Aaron! Deee--LISH

I'm a big fan of brussels sprouts, so I'm always looking for different ways to prepare them. This was delicious! Now, if only I could get my husband to eat them!

Quinoa and Black Beans

Reviewed: Nov. 9, 2003
Delicious, nutritious, and easy to make. You can't go wrong with this one! Add a little salsa, top with zingy shredded cheese and bake it up for a nice casserole, too.

Green Curry Tofu

Reviewed: Sep. 11, 2003
This is a wonderful dish. I especially liked the idea of stir-frying with sesame oil - it really adds depth of flavor. I also added broccoli to the stir-fry, used lite coconut milk, and served over steamed short-grain brown rice. Delicious!
