Pumpkin Chocolate Chip Cookies I

Reviewed: Nov. 3, 2011
I supervised my 11-year-old son making these for "life skills" a.k.a. "excuse to make yummy treats" part of his homeschooling. We used fresh cooked pumpkin, since I had it on hand. They turned out delicious. Next time we will use parchment, though.

African Curry

Reviewed: Aug. 22, 2011
I loved this. I used skinned chicken thighs with bone left in and added 1/2 cup of fresh peas from the farmer's market. I kept it mild and sweet and completely forgot about the lemon juice at the end. It didn't need it.

Mama's Asian Chicken and Rice

Reviewed: Apr. 26, 2011
Like other reviewers, I doubled the sauce. I also mixed in some steamed veggies at the end. I used Jasmine rice, but the nutty flavor of brown rice would do well too. For less than 400 calories per serving, this recipe is hard to beat.

Chinese Cookies

Reviewed: Feb. 14, 2011
These got rave reviews at work. I had to add water to make the dough manageable. Otherwise it was crumbs.

Maple Cookies

Reviewed: Feb. 14, 2011
These came out great. I rolled them in maple sugar (good luck finding it if you don't live near sugar bushes). All we had was light amber syrup, so the flavor was subtle. A medium amber syrup might give stronger flavor.

Quick Fudge Icing

Delilah's Frosted Cut-Out Sugar Cookies

Reviewed: Feb. 14, 2011
My 10-year-old son made this dough with my supervision then I rolled it out with my 5 year old daughter. It was easy to work with. The icing worked nicely for spreading and piping. Put together, the cookies tasted great.

Perfect Pumpkin Pie

Reviewed: Dec. 22, 2010
This is my favorite pumpkin pie recipe. I love the texture. It works as well with fresh pumpkin puree as with canned pumpkin.

Jam Kolaches

Reviewed: Dec. 22, 2010
These taste like mini raspberry pies - so delicious. Getting them to look good takes more technique than my 10-year-old assistant could master. I made the dough a few days ahead and refrigerated it. Don't do that unless you want to take time to "thaw" it because the butter and cream cheese hardens up and makes rolling difficult to impossible. Using wax paper or parchment between the rolling pin and dough might also make this easier.

Pierogi Casserole

Reviewed: Dec. 22, 2010
This is a great weekday meal. Due to family members preferences, I made one 8x8 pan of potato pierogi and one of sweet potato. I liked both, but I think I liked it with sweet potatoes better. I know it isn't authentic, but traditional Polish cooking is most about thrift and versatility. This will be a fun casserole to play around with more.

Blueberry Zucchini Bread

Reviewed: Jul. 16, 2010
This is delicious! I used 2/3 white whole wheat flour and applesauce for half the oil. What a great summer bread! The kids can't get enough of it.

Chicken Pot Pie Soup

Reviewed: Apr. 12, 2010
For something so quick and easy, my family really loved this. Like others, I made it in my crock pot. I used cubed b/s chicken breast, but will definitely use this recipe for left-over turkey and chicken in the future. This would be great baked in the oven with a biscuit topping.

Quick and Easy Pizza Crust

Reviewed: Feb. 10, 2010
I made this with white whole wheat, using wheat gluten for one fifth of the flour. I made a double batch - 4 cups white whole wheat and one cup wheat gluten. As always, when using whole wheat flour more water is necessary - about 1/4 cup. I let my Kitchen Aid dough hook do the mixing. It was really easy to roll out. I made two large stromboli rolls with it. I am definitely using this as my standard pizza crust recipe. It was so quick and easy!

Grilled Sausage with Potatoes and Green Beans

Reviewed: Feb. 10, 2010
Due to our harsh winter climate, I followed the advice of another and did this in the oven in a 9 x 11 glass pan at 400 degrees for 40 minutes. I covered it with foil until the last ten minutes. Instead of using oil and butter, I sprayed the pan and top of food with cooking spray. I used reduced fat smoked sausage and Montreal Steak Seasoning. It was very flavorful.

Johnnycakes

Reviewed: Jul. 28, 2009
For what they are, an austere pioneer food, they are good - especially with additional butter and syrup (only pure NY maple syrup will do). However, there is a reason why this has been replaced by other cornbread variations as other ingredients and cooking methods are available now. On a hot day with no A/C I wanted to try a cornbread that did not require an oven.

Strawberry Trifle

Reviewed: Jun. 11, 2009
I made this for a get-together with another family. It was easy to make and tasted delicious. I used fresh berries because I had some in the fridge already. I would try this with blueberries and/or raspberries too.
