Sweet Corn Bread

Reviewed: Mar. 31, 2009
This recipe is amazing! I did make some modifications and it was out of this world. I like my cornbread sweet and fluffy so I added an extra egg and an extra 1/4 cup of sugar. I also substituted plain yogurt for the sour cream (no sour cream in Turkey). My father and I thought it was perfect, but my mother and sister thought it was just a bit too sweet; so I may use only 1/3 cup of sugar next time. Absolutely delicious!

Hearty Vegetable Soup

Reviewed: Mar. 4, 2009
I will have to tweak this recipe a bit before it gets 4 or 5 stars. First of all, I really disliked the rice which when cooked got very mushy. I will substitute barley next time...a good thickener which holds its shape in soups and stews. The liquid was far too little and I ended up adding about 4 cups more water to make it soup-like instead of stewy. The overall measurements of vegetables was good...no flavors were overpowering but next time I may substitute a vegetable or chicken stock for part of the 3 cups tomato juice cocktail. Corn and peas together are too many starchy (high carb) vegetables for me...I added only corn and of that, half of what was called for. I will finish the soup and try again next week making the changes. Thanks for the starting recipe. I'll let you know how my changes work out!

Baked Apple Pudding

Reviewed: Feb. 12, 2009
As my daughter and I are following a weight loss program, I adjusted this recipe as follows: instead of butter I used 1 small, mashed banana and 2 T. oil; instead of sugar I used splenda for baking; I used 1/2 all-purpose flour and 1/2 whole wheat flour; decreased nutmeg to 1/8 t. and increased cinnamon to 3/4 t.; increased walnuts to 1/2 cup. It came out like a moist walnut apple bread and tasted great! This will be a great way to get our cake without going off our program! Without frozen yogurt the changes to nutrition are as follows: Per Serving (excluding unknown items): 115 Calories; 6g Fat (44.1% calories from fat); 3g Protein; 14g Carbohydrate; 2g Dietary Fiber; 18mg Cholesterol; 79mg Sodium. Exchanges: 1/2 Grain(Starch); 0 Lean Meat; 1/2 Fruit; 1 Fat; 0 Other Carbohydrates.

Basil Chicken and Pasta

Reviewed: Jan. 28, 2009
I loved this! I tried it with fusilli but made a few changes: I used 2T olive oil instead of butter to make it a bit healthier and only 1 clove garlic because I'm not really a fan. I used twice the amount of parmesan stated in the recipe. Finally, I was disappointed to see that I didn't have any basil so I had to omit that. It was still awesome, though I'm sure it tastes even better with basil. I'm going to try that ASAP. PS: It's not nearly as good when you reheat it so try to eat it all when you first make it! Trust me, it won't be hard. ;)

Eileen's Spicy Gingerbread Men

Reviewed: Jan. 12, 2009
These are the best! I've made these 3 times in the past month and everyone seems to like them--including my sister who claims to hate ginger. I don't use all of the molasses, though. I add about 2T molasses and use honey for the rest because I don't really like molasses. These cookies are awesome!
