Oh, this is so good. I love, love, love, anything with sesame oil in it and this is going to be a favorite and always in the fridge in this household!

Mom's Brussels Sprouts

Reviewed: Nov. 21, 2008
If you use fresh brussels sprouts, and cut them into 1/4's and stir fry them in a little olive oil (or your preferred oil)instead of boiling then continue with the rest of the recipe instructions, it's even better.

As a previous reviewer said, if you don't like bleu cheese, use feta cheese; very yummy. Great recipe.

Ramen Noodle Soup

Reviewed: Nov. 10, 2008
I liked the ease and simplicity of this recipe. Like others, I tossed the packet that comes with the ramen noodles as it is loaded with salt. I also figured that the reason there was no amount to the sesame oil, is that you can drizzle it into each serving to personal taste, and your own preference to spicy sesame oil or regular. Very simple and good.

Oatmeal Carmelitas

Reviewed: Nov. 9, 2008
I made these last night and refrigerated the pan until about 2 hours ago, just cut into them and they are AMAZING!!! I followed Ruby's advice to double the recipe for a 9 x 13 pan...mother of God these are addictive and I'm not sure they'll make it to the potluck they are intended for (my husband keeps looking at me all doe-eyed wanting more). The ONLY change I made was to use slivered almonds in place of the walnuts cuz I'm not a big fan of the walnut. This is a definite keeper.

Divine Summertime Chicken Sandwich

Reviewed: Nov. 8, 2008
If you use a good sturdy bread, a good whole grain, or a good sourdough, you can make it panini style..I suggest using fresh spinach leaves in place of the lettuce if you do make it a panini. Or maybe Kale, as it is sturdier than lettuce and can take the heat. I have a cast iron panini press, but I have also used my George Forman grill to make panini's.

London Broil

Reviewed: Nov. 5, 2008
I had a difficult time choosing the number of stars since I made some changes...I omitted the MSG (that stuff is SO bad for you!), used half veg. oil and half olive oil because I love olive oil but in a marinade it's terrible because when it gets cold it turns solid. I also replaced the tarragon vinegar with balsamic vinegar because I'm allergic to tarragon. I marinated the meat for 2 days, turning the bag whenever I went to the fridge and used all the marinade instead of saving some to baste with as I didn't think it would need it. This was excellent! My husband who will only eat bone-in steak and had never tried a london broil cut before absolutely loved it and no A-1 was needed on my part. Thank you for sharing this, it's definitely a keeper!!!

Grilled Flat Iron Steak with Blue Cheese-Chive Butter

Reviewed: Nov. 2, 2008
Is there another name for "flat iron" steak? I'm having trouble finding the right cut. I have used this with other steak, and it is good, but would like to try the authentic recipe.

Grits With Parmesan and Prosciutto

Reviewed: Oct. 25, 2008
I loved this recipe. I also love grits, and think that most people who "hate" them have never tried them when questioned! I subbed canadian bacon for the prosciutto and it was good. But is outstanding with the prosciutto. Pancetta (italian bacon) makes it very special also. When losing weight, it never hurts to splurge a little and make yourself feel special!

Best Tuna Casserole

Reviewed: Oct. 23, 2008
My mom used to make this, so I decided to try this version. My family really liked it, but I would recommend lessening the amount of cheese placed on top and maybe more in the casserole itself. It had a tendency to just peel off and my children ended up just eating the cheese that was cooked on top!

This recipe is awesome. I first had this recipe at my families Thanksgiving Dinner some years ago. I usually can't get enough. It's in a class by itself.

Potato Soup VI

Exactly the way my mom made potato soup when I was growing up...before the days of adding bacon, cheese, etc. I was thrilled when she made it! HA! Simple is usually best. Definitely use russet potatoes and not red.

Cube Steak Parmesan

Reviewed: Sep. 29, 2008
A great way to use cube steak; I used my own homemade spaghetti/marinara sauce in place of the plain tomato sauce. Very, very good recipe. Served with big green salad and crusty french bread and fruit for dessert. Yum!
