Czech Republic

Located in the heart of Europe, the Czech Republic officially separated from Slovakia on New Year’s Day 1993. Its Capital city, Prague, has long held a reputation as one of the most beautiful cities in the world. Czech beer is renowned by beer drinkers everywhere. The Czech city of Plzen became important in the history of beer when the Plzensky Prazdroj (Pilsner Urquell) brewery poured the first glass of a new style of lager in 1842, inspiring other brewers to design their own version of pilsner. No wonder the Czech Republic has the highest per-capita rate of beer consumption in the world at over 160 liters of beer annually per citizen! The typical Czech meal consists mainly of roasted pork or beef, served with potatoes, rice, or the traditional bread or potato dumplings. Goulash and potato pancakes show an Austro-Hungarian influence.

Bacon and Macaroni Salad

Reviewed on Jun. 3, 2008 by Babzil
This was OK, quite a traditional pasta salad, and as such, not overly exciting, but still tasty. I used halved cherry tomatoes because I like the taste better, and only half the bacon recommended and it was plenty. For the dressing, I used some creamy blue cheese dressing that I had, and added the sour cream, mustard and a bit of mayo to that. Worked fine. I might make this again.

Corn and Avocado Salad

Reviewed on Jun. 3, 2008 by Babzil
Nice and different when you don't feel like your regular old salad. I served it with a bit of pesto pasta and ciabatta on the side, and it was a great summer lunch. However, I had to make some changes. I had to use a yellow pepper instead of a red one, and that with the corn made it look like a yellow mess on lettuce. I would definitely go for the red next time. Also dicovered too late that I had no honey, added a bit of sugar trying to fix it, but I'm sure it wasn't the same. And finally, the recipe doesn't say so, but it would be nice to chill it for a bit before serving. I'll make this again, and try to follow the recipe more closely.

Orange Glorious I

Reviewed on Jun. 1, 2008 by Lauren N.
Mmmmmmmm! So easy and fast, and just as good as the kind I used to get in the mall when I was a kid. My husband is very picky about his smoothies, and he loved it too.
