This was good, but not very spicy like the samosas I have eaten in the past. I think that doubling the spices would help quite a lot. It seemed like the turmeric was the dominant taste, and that the other spices got lost. Next time I will also substitute a spicier chile pepper (like jalapeno). I also used wonton wrappers, and I thought they were excellent because they were so easy to work with.

Asian Fire Meat

Reviewed: Jan. 6, 2005

Gary this is DELICIOUS! My husband and I like a little more heat and more complex sweet so I made the following changes: 1. substituted brown sugar for maple syrup 2. upped the red pepper flakes to 1 tbsp AND added 1 tbsp of Asian chili paste (we like food that makes us sweat) 3. Added 1 can of water chestnuts This is a keeper--thanks for sharing!

Garden Fresh Tomato Soup

Reviewed: Jan. 5, 2005

I followed some of the suggestions to gussy up this soup with garlic and herbs, as well as to assume that onion slice meant a sliced onion. Overall it was good tomato soup, zesty. But I wouldn't call it great.

Chocolate Brownies with Fewer Calories

Reviewed: Jan. 5, 2005

Wowie Zowie! I didn't believe that low-fat brownies could be, well, good. You have proved me wrong, Anna. I made two changes: 1. I substituted 2 ounces of the semi-sweet chocolate for unsweetened (actually makes them lower in fat, plus the hubby and I like a really dark taste when it comes to chocolate); 2. Added a simple, thin frosting of 1 tbsp. butter, 1 ounce of unsweetened chocolate, 1 tsp. powdered sugar and a tsp. of fat-free milk Thanks for an AWESOME recipe! I will definitely make this again and again!

Confetti Chicken Salad

Reviewed: Jan. 4, 2005

This was really delicious...and a great change from heavy holiday food! I added a can of corn and a can of black beans to turn it into a main course.

Rice Pudding IV

Reviewed: Jan. 31, 2004

Not bad. If I make this one again, I will do a few things: reduce the milk by one half cup, double the amount of syrup, and add two tablespoons of corn starch to make it a bit creamier. It turned out okay, but a bit watery.
