Pumpkin Cream Cheese Muffins

Reviewed: Nov. 9, 2009
So tasty but I will try a full half cup less flour next time as they tasted a bit too much of flour and were too dense and heavy. The flavor is there though, I am just hoping to perfect it :)

Baked Tomatoes Oregano

Reviewed: Nov. 9, 2009
Really delicious with a bit of mozzarella added. Use the best cheese you can, and fresh herbs if they are avilable. It makes a big difference.

Rich and Creamy Tomato Basil Soup

Reviewed: Oct. 12, 2009
It was our first "fall" day in L.A. and my husband was in the mood for tomato soup and a grilled cheese sandwich. I had no cans of soup, but happened to have some fresh organic basil and heavy cream. I had no fresh tomatoes, so combed the cupboard for diced tomatoes. I used half diced roasted and half regular tomatoes. The juice inside replaced the tomato juice, which I also was out of. I pureed the ingredients and it turned out fantastic. Thanks!

Megan's Granola

Reviewed: Sep. 13, 2009
Best granola ever! I use less oil and do not add fruits or nuts as hubby doesn't like them. I add them to my own later this way everyone can tailor their granola to their liking.

Fluffy Canadian Pancakes

Reviewed: Sep. 12, 2009
I was planning on adding egg whites to my pancakes and found this recipe - a perfect base recipe!! I used buttermilk instead of milk, only 2 yolks and 3 whites, and added 1 tsp sugar and vanilla. I folded in a few fresh blueberries from our farmer's market, then served it with store bought syrup doctored up with vanilla and butter then heated. Decadent and delicious! Stir the least bit you can to keep the air pockets!!

This recipe got major points from my husband and two sons. They all told me that they definitely wanted me to make this again! I didn't have mozzarella, so used a low fat cheddar instead and it came out great, other than that, I followed the recipe to a t.

Balsamic-Glazed Salmon Fillets

Reviewed: Jul. 2, 2009
I added liquid smoke to the glaze. Good basic recipie, I also use non stick foil. HINT: since I use a lot of non stick foil, (just like OIL,) it can be reused. I for this I use the reused saved foil, then discard.

High Temperature Eye-of-Round Roast

Reviewed: Jun. 28, 2009
I prep the roast with kosher salt rub, cover with moist kitchen towel pop in coldest part of fridge for 2-3 days. WEIGH the meat before, and after!!!! The timing is to finished meat weight. Don't like so much salt..brush, or rince it off, pat dry, season, or not. Bring meat out for an hour or so prior to cooking!! Be sure of your oven temps. EZ~~

Lubia Polo (Green Bean Rice)

Reviewed: May 22, 2009
This is completely different than the lubia polo I make. I fry bits of stew meat in oil with onion and garlic, then add tomato sauce, salt/pepper and tumeric and/or saffron. It is much better with saffron that has been ground up fine and stirred into melted butter then added. I do blanch the beans to keep them bright,and I like them crisp so add them at the end of the sauce. I do not use broth, I just use basmati rice (cooked in a well oiled large pot "al dente" - not quite cooked so the rice stays firm and separated). You put the sauce on top of the rice and continue cooking on low for a while then 15 minutes before serving stir it all together and serve. I like my rice very tomatoe-y so add more sauce, which is not authentic but there you have it.

Yummy Honey Chicken Kabobs

Reviewed: May 17, 2009
This is so, so basic...all reviews add and confirm the value of this recipe...I want to add my 2 cents: Double ok, I make about 3or4 pounds of the veggies, because I eat, and love them, I cut them in half and/even slices. I spray with olive oil spray***before***I maranate, this is to restrict the calories and mushyness. I grill them (veggies) for the BBQ lines, and baste (dip in sauce). I let them drip dry, and freez on a cookie sheet, then put in plastic bags..& store. The veggies go fast, watch them, you want them undercooked for freezing, and crip if you serve them as a side dish...try this with some fruit too. Large, even sized pieces. Jagged is ok, just go for the grill lines. dip in lemon, or lime or whatever you have for a change. I make many things in advance, and can always put something great together in the time it takes to heat the grill.

Grilled Turkey Legs

Reviewed: May 5, 2009
A great basic, what to do with these things. There are all kinds of personal adjustments that can be made. The idea is what is special...try this with smoked drumsticks, or smoked wings, cut the tips off the wings and you get a smaller white meat drumstick. Adust the 'boil time' for flavor only. It is fun and low cost. I will try it with a 'salsa' type flavor.

Classic Bran Muffins

Reviewed: Apr. 19, 2009
For once I didn't change a thing except to use frozen blueberries in place of raisins and add extra vanilla. Moist, full of flavor, and so yummy! I am so impressed. Next time I will try half honey half molasses. I think you can't go wrong with fruit/sweetener/liquid changes. The perfect base recipe,that is even perfect with NO changes. Thank you!

Crispy Orange Beef

Reviewed: Apr. 8, 2009
Gosh this is so delicious as it, but even better with a splash of wine in the sauce, as well as a pinch of cayenne or chili paste. I omit the salt as there is enough sodium in the soy sauce. At the last minute we add red pepper matchsticks and sliced green onions. Good with chicken too!

Amy's Barbecue Chicken Salad

Reviewed: Apr. 1, 2009
Very good - we don't like *too* strong a BBQ flavor so only added one heaping TBS into homemade Ranch, then tossed in BBQ glazed chicken legs (de-boned - used legs as it was all we had). Added red pepper and sharp cheddar. If you can use fresh corn - makes a huge difference.

Chicken with Mushrooms, Prosciutto, and Cream Sauce

Reviewed: Mar. 29, 2009
Really good - I like it with thighs but prefer breasts. I saute the breasts in a pan then add the mushrooms and create the sauce. The sour cream is added last, stirred and served immediately to prevent the grainy look and butter separation.
