Aunt Carol's Apple Pie

Reviewed: Nov. 28, 2009
Excellent recipe for traditional apple pie. I added about 1/4 tsp. of nutmeg with the cinnamon. I added a bit less flour than called for and it was plenty - not runny at all. I got my apples at the farmers market and based on the recommendation of the apple guy found a fantastic pie apple called "Mutsu". I will definitely look for them again next time. They are big and meaty, not too sweet or too tart, just perfect and they bake up really well. I also threw in a couple Granny Smiths.

Chocolate Chip Pumpkin Bread

Reviewed: Nov. 20, 2009
Fantastic! I started this and realized I didn't have enough nutmeg so I subbed the spices up a bit. I used 1 Tbsp. pumpkin pie spice, 2 tsp. cinnamon, and 1 tsp. nutmeg. I used loaf pans and got 1 large loaf and 2 smaller loaves. It is delicous! We had it while still a bit warm after dinner and everyone loved it.

Spaghetti With Red Clam Sauce

Reviewed: Nov. 17, 2009
I love red clam sauce so I was excited to find this recipe. However, I had to change few things to modify it to my personal taste. I also added white wine, tripled clams but only use 1/2 the juice and added small can of tomato paste to make the sauce little thicker. All in all very nice starter recipe.

Maple-Soy Glazed Salmon

This was good but not anything special. However, Grilled Salmon l from this site is out of this world. I have tried combining these two recipes and it was delicious!

Fast and Easy Tofu Lo-Mein

Reviewed: Nov. 2, 2009
I thought this was pretty good with couple of changes hence, three stars. I added some cayenne pepper to spice it up a little and hardly used any of the ramen season packets. I also added couple of teaspoon of sesame oil. Veges I used were red pepper, onion, snap peas and celery and it turned out pretty good.

Pan de Muertos (Mexican Bread of the Dead)

Reviewed: Nov. 1, 2009
I made this today--my first ever Pan de Muertos--and it turned out beautifully. I followed the recipe almost exactly (rare for me). I made anise tea, which I then let cool, in place of the warm water, and omitted the anise seed. The anise flavor wasn't as strong as I would have hoped, so I wouldn't suggest this.

Hot and Spicy Tofu

Reviewed: Oct. 29, 2009
Our whole family really enjoyed this. It's more like sweet and sour tofu. I also doubled the sauce to serve it over rice. Thank you for a great recipe.

My Best Clam Chowder

Reviewed: Oct. 29, 2009
I agree with people who said they could taste the flour. I added more clams and a jar of clam juice but didn't help much. Would not make this again.

Apple Crisp II

Reviewed: Oct. 28, 2009
Just made this last night and boy was it good! I did however cut down on white, brown sugar by half and butter by 1/3 to make it healthier and I thought it was perfect! And yes, I did double the topping as well.

I used PAM spray. Then tried Taco powder, Garlic Powder, Seasoned Salt (ugh). Next I'll try brushing on olive oil with spices already in it.

I was given this recipe for a bridal shower and they were a hit. They have a good variety of veggies and dried fruit which makes you feel pretty good about eating it. Good flavors melding together.

Tacos in Pasta Shells

Reviewed: Oct. 1, 2009
I used 2 lbs. ground beef and was glad I did. I used all of it. For this amount I added 1 8oz. block of light cream cheese and subbed homemade taco seasoning and lots of fresh ground pepper instead of just chili powder. The filling was yummy but a little on the rich side. I poured a little red enchilada sauce and some picante sauce on the bottom of the pan and then also drizzled a little over the top. Topped with chopped green onions. I baked covered with foil and at the end of baking time, removed the foil, topped with shredded jack and cheddar and sliced olives. The only reason I'm not giving this 5 stars is that it is a somewhat greasy dish. Even though I drained off all the grease from the meat there was a bit pooling at the bottom of the dish. The kids loved it though.

Gnocchi with Sage-Butter Sauce

I combined this recipe with the Quick Gnocchi so that I made it all from scratch. This sauce has good flavor and was quick to make. I will definitely do it again!

Zucchini Brownies

Reviewed: Aug. 31, 2009
I was so intrigued by this recipe I just had to try it. While you really cannot tell there is zucchini in them, there is something a little different about the taste that makes them not quite like a typical brownie. They are however pretty darn good. All my kids are eating them but I don't think they will go as fast as a pan of traditional brownies. And, yes, a lot of moisture is released into the very dry mixture once the zucchini is mixed in and even more as it bakes. Interesting recipe!
