Spinach and Feta Pita Bake

Reviewed: Nov. 23, 2009
I have made this several times now and I love it! My husband and i love pizza but are watching our calories and this recipe satisfies our craving for pizza without busting your calorie intake for the day!!! The only problem I have is I can't always find the whole wheat pitas, my store always sells out of them quickly, otherwise I would make them even more!! Also very quick to make! Thanks for an excellent recipe.

Slow Cooker Lasagna

Reviewed: Nov. 16, 2009
VARIATION ALERT! My gallbladder and I prefer ground turkey to sausage. I browned it w/onions, garlic, garlic powder, s/p. Then added ONE jar of sauce + 1 c. beef broth (to simmer). Meanwhile, in a separate bowl, I mixed a 15oz tub of ricotta, 1 1/2 c. of mozz, 1/2 c. parmesan, plus parsley, oregano, basil, and one egg. Starting with whole wheat lasagna noodles (6 total), I alternated layers of the above in my crock pot (wiped down with olive oil first - I had no spray), ending with meat sauce. Thanks for the inspiration! It's hot here in TX; I leave the oven off whenever possible. Presentation = great! Noodles = not so gummy. Exactly 4 hours on low. Easy.

Okra, Corn and Tomatoes

Reviewed: Nov. 14, 2009
I wasn't a fan of the file seasoning, but appreciate the ease of this dish. I also preferred it cold (straight out of the refrigerator the next day.)

This is an excellent recipe. The lemon zest makes a subtle yet interesting difference.

Tomato-Curry Lentil Stew

Reviewed: Sep. 13, 2009
4.5 stars, actually. This was good! Two slight variations for me: I used a full teaspoon of curry (I know me), and added a bit of cayenne pepper (thanks to another reviewer's suggestion -- yum!). This recipe calls for too little water; even after adding 1/2 c. during the cooking process, I ended up with a dish that isn't anything close to a stew. Next time, I'll start with more water so I can end up with a soup/stew. Will definitely make again.

Spinach Lentil Soup

Reviewed: Sep. 13, 2009
I'm giving 5 stars because it's easy, inexpensive, tasty, and uses things I keep around the house. I used half broth, half water, just in case. And I used fancy salsa the second time but didn't notice a difference. I'll stick with the standard (cheaper!) stuff next time.

Quinoa and Black Beans

Reviewed: Sep. 13, 2009
Pretty good; nice nutty flavor. If you like heat, I'd recommend increasing the cayenne. (It didn't seem to stick around.) Keep an eye on it, too, so you don't run out of liquid.

This was awesome! I'll make this again & again! I added the BBQ sauce & also did wings around the chicken breast for my son inlaw. Yummy!

German Lentil Soup

Reviewed: Aug. 21, 2009
I'm surprised by all of the rave reviews. This soup is good, but there isn't really anything outstanding about it. However, I increased the amount of broth to 6c. based on reviews, which may have diminished the flavor since I didn't simultaneously increase the other flavorings in the soup. It's easy to make (hooray!), and for that I'll keep making it. Plus, it's easy to convert to a meat-free dish. I'd eat it again.

Mexican Rice

Reviewed: Aug. 15, 2009
Fabuloso! It is really easy, tasty and filling. I made a few minor changes. I added 1/4 tsp cumin and 1/2 packet of Goya Sazon Con Culantro Y Achiote. I also used 1 drained can of whole kernel corn instead of fresh corn. I threw it all in the rice cooker. I also left out the cheese. I will definitely make again. I served with Mexican Corn Bread (recipe on allrecipes)

Coconut Rice

Reviewed: Jul. 15, 2009
This was heavenly. I have made this several times as a side to Asian dishes. I haden't worked much with coconut milk, remember to shake the can wildly before opening it. Also, SunnyByrd (one of my favorite cooks) is correct about this recipe, you need to adjust the liquid/rice ratio, after that is done, it will be great!

Rosemary Turkey Meatloaf

Reviewed: Jul. 15, 2009
This is definitely a keeper. I decided to make this and had begun to do so, all the while forgetting my oven was out. Watching countless episodes of Rachael Ray, I realized that I could pat the meat mixture into 7 patties and pan-fried in some canola until deep golden brown. Remembering the mushy comments I read from others, (although I now think this is due to the fact that a loaf pan is meant for bread and not a meatloaf, I never put a meatloaf into a loaf pan, I always pat it into the shape I want and roast it on a foil lined sheet pan) I rolled the patties in add'l breadcrumbs and this helped them stay together in the pan. I added the sauce to the pan after I was sure there wasn't too much oil left in the pan and poured in the sauce with a little water and let it reduce. I do think the sauce could benefit from a splash of worchestshire since the sugar in the sauce and the sweet of the balsamic in the meat needed alittle something to counterbalance. Overall I saved this recipe and will forward to friends.

Rhubarb and Strawberry Pie

Reviewed: May 24, 2009
This was awesome. I used a 16oz bag of frozen rhubarb as well as a 16oz bag of frozen whole srawberries since that is what I had in the freezer. I think that it is important to let the rhubarb/srawberry/sugar/flour mixture to sit for 30 mins before pouring into the pie crusts. I allowed it to cool in the oven for about 30 as suggested and then cut it the next morning and it was not runny. Tastes just like my grandmother used to make. Thanks.

Chicken Thigh Fricassee with Mushrooms and Rosemary

Reviewed: Apr. 26, 2009
This recipe is a good foundation, and for that I give it five stars. I was short on supplies and used chicken broth for the wine and skipped the olives and tomatoes. Nevertheless, I really enjoyed this dish (even though I went overboard with the red pepper flakes -- eek!).

Roast Chicken with Rosemary

Reviewed: Apr. 26, 2009
This was good enough, but not as exciting as I expected, based on some of the other reviews. Per others' suggestions, I added lemons, onion quarters, and garlic cloves to the cavity stuffing. Was still very tasty.

Cinnamon Bread I

Reviewed: Apr. 3, 2009
This is a good breakfast bread. It's not overly sweet, unless you add some chocolate chips in it like I did. It was very good and filling. I made buttermilk by using 1 tbs white vinegar and 1 c skim milk.

Awesome Baked Sea Scallops

Reviewed: Mar. 11, 2009
This recipe was awesome! I didn't have enough scallops for the full recipe and there were only 2 of us, so I tried to cut the measurements accordingly. I added a splash of white wine to the mixture and I think the sugars in the wine helped to carmelize the mixture around the scallops. I plan to make this again and add some lump crab meat. I didn't quite understand other's comments about having too much topping, what I didn't need on top of the scallops fell around the scallops and created this wonderful sauce; the shallots and butter and wine created this awesome sauce that I wish I had something to serve it on top of, like a pasta. This is definitely a keeper.
