About me:
As a teenager with a bad case of the sweet-tooth, I began to bake on Sundays. As a college student, I moved out of home and into a grungy apartment with a kitchen that was falling apart and began to eat out a lot! I moved to Japan and lived off cornflakes and beer and didn't even own an oven. (Ovens as westerners know them don't exist over here.) Then I got married to some Canadian. Japanese society still expects a wife to do all the cooking and cleaning so, more out of a misplaced sense of responsibilty than anything else, I began to cook again. I was surprised how much I enjoyed it and quickly expanded my base of favorites. My husband stopped asking long ago if I would like a night off!

Roasted Sweet Potatoes & Onions

Reviewed on Sep. 21, 2009 by lupusliz

What a great recipe! I was looking for something nutritious with an autumn flavor, and this was just the ticket. A few changes I made: Like other reviewers suggested, I decreased the amount of dried thyme. I just used what was left in the shaker, probably 1/2-3/4 tsp, and it was plenty. The subtle flavor was wonderful. Also, I subbed orange juice for amaretto, because I'm on a bit of a tight budget and OJ is a more practical choice for my household. Last, I threw in some prunes (sliced in half) because I love them. They're full of iron, they add color contrast to the dish, and they're delicious!

Greek Lentil Salad

Reviewed on Aug. 11, 2009 by canuckinjapan

This salad was awsome!! I didn't have greek dressing so I used the oil/dressing that came with the feta. I don't know what lentils are either so I used kidney beans. This was the top recipe that came up in my feta/kidney bean search. Brilliant.
