Pineapple Angel Food Cake I

Reviewed: Jul. 20, 2008
I obviously did something wrong (probably undercooked it) because it ended up very flat. The taste was still pretty good even though the texture was way off. So... I guess it would be five stars if I had cooked it a little longer.

Chocolate Ganache

Reviewed: Jul. 16, 2008
This was excellent ganache. I was a little nervous about making it, however, it turned out wonderfully. I used about 1 1/2 cups of semisweet chocolate chips instead of the bittersweet chocolate. Next time I may try using milk chocolate chips. I used the ganache on the Too Much Chocolate Cake also from this site. It was amazing!!

Too Much Chocolate Cake

Reviewed: Jul. 16, 2008
This was a fantastic recipe!!! My husband is a chocoholic and so I decided to make this cake for his 45th birthday. I didn't make any substitutions at all. I felt a little guilty serving/eating such a high calorie, rich cake, but only for a minute. :) My husband was extremely happy and asked me to make it again.

Broiled Tilapia Parmesan

Reviewed: Jul. 4, 2008
The topping was a bit too heavy-handed on the lemon. I think it could be improved by using some of the lemon juice in a marinade for the fillets. I'll try tweaking the recipe on the next go round.

Sweet Restaurant Slaw

Reviewed: Jul. 4, 2008
Easy & delicious. It stays crisp even after several days. The first time I made it as directed. I cut the sugar back to 3 oz. instead of 4 the last time & it was just as good.

Greek Orzo and Broccoli

Left out the almonds because I don't like them and added a bouillon cube to the water but otherwise followed it exactly and LOVED it!

Colcannon

Reviewed: Jun. 19, 2008
I had this for the first time in Dublin 12/07 and it was so good there I had to find a recipe to make it here. I changed/added a few things.I used 1/2 pound of kale, 1 cup of buttermilk and fresh garlic. Saute the kale,leeks,and garlic in the butter (add about a teaspoon or so of olive oil so butter doesn't burn)until soft and add to potatoes. I added the buttermilk right to the potato mixture. It was so good... thank you for the recipe it was great!!!

Onion Rice

Reviewed: Jun. 12, 2008
Very good variation to plain rice. I don't like to use plain white rice so I substituted jasmine rice instead. It was VERY good. I will definitely make it again.

Yummy Honey Chicken Kabobs

Reviewed: Jun. 12, 2008
This was an excellent recipe which leaves a lot of room for variation. I used green peppers, red onion, grape tomatoes, and pineapple chunks as well as cubes of chicken. I allowed all of the ingredients to marinate for about 4 hours. I don't have a grill (I live in an apartment) so I baked them in the oven for about 20 minutes on 400 degrees. I served them with the Onion Rice recipe also from this site. Excellent!!!

Slow Cooker Chili II

Reviewed: Jun. 6, 2008
This was pretty good chili. My husband and I love thick chili, so I chose to drain all of the beans before adding them to the pot. In addition to the spices listed, I also added 1 teaspoon of cumin and an additional 1/2 teaspoon of salt. Once everything was in the crockpot, I decided to add about 1/2 cup of water. It turned out perfect!!! My husband raved and even my picky children ate it. We topped ours with cheese and sour cream. Next time, I will add a touch more chili powder. This was not spicy at all (which was fine because of the kids).
