Vegetarian Cottage Cheese Patties

Reviewed: Oct. 12, 2011

Awesome! These were so tasty, and I love that it's healthy, inexpensive and very easy. I did have difficulty with the consistency when trying to fry - they kept breaking apart. I ended up giving up halfway through and just opted to bake without frying the whole batch. Worked just fine. I baked alone for 6 or 8 minutes, then added the soup topping and baked another 20 or so. I did find the recipe quite salty, and may cut down on the dry onion soup mix, or use reduced-sodium cream of mushroom soup next time. I was out of thyme, and opted for caraway instead (yum). Added some worcestershire as others suggested. Thanks!

Fantastic Lemon Butter Fillet

Reviewed: Apr. 7, 2011

Very tasty! I just pan sauteed instead of baked. Omitted lemon pepper seasoning; added some dill and chardonnay. Wonderful! Served with a simple herb salad and crusty bread.

Fresh Asparagus Soup

Reviewed: Apr. 7, 2011

Delicious! I used tzatziki in place of yogurt, and it worked wonderfully. Topped soup with asparagus, mushroom and macadamia nuts sauteed in butter and chardonnay. I was thrilled with how tasty this soup was, how decadent it felt, and how very quickly it came together! Will certainly make again :)

Tropical Salad with Pineapple Vinaigrette

Reviewed: Nov. 24, 2010

Very tasty! I made this for a tropical-themed dinner party for my fiance and future in-laws. Enjoyed by all - but I do wish the flavors were more pronounced. I think next time I'll add some more tropical fruit on top...

Supreme Strawberry Topping

Reviewed: Jul. 8, 2010

Fantastic over ice cream! I sliced all the strawberries, nearly halved the sugar, added just a *tiny* bit of flour, and let the whole mix simmer for 20 or 30 minutes. The slow, low cooking eliminated any need to use the blender, and the let the flavors develop nicely. I'll never buy pre-made fruit topping again.

Mushroom Burgers

Reviewed: Jul. 8, 2010

Great! I used olive oil instead of cooking spray, and used soy sauce and Worcestershire sauce in place of oyster sauce. Grilled on the BBQ, topped with grilled onions, tomato, lettuce and Trader Joe's Greek feta dressing. YUM!

Classic White Wine Spritzer

Reviewed: Jul. 8, 2010

We love these, especially on warm summer nights. We use 7up instead of club soda, and have also tried this with red wine and rose wine. Big fans!

Pesto

Reviewed: Jul. 8, 2010

Delicious! I subbed almonds for pine nuts, a bit less oil and cheese than called for. Otherwise followed pretty much as written. Did throw in a dash of nutmeg for kicks. Tasty, tasty, tasty!

Basil and Pesto Hummus

Reviewed: Jul. 8, 2010

Awesome! It was gone in a day. I eyeballed all the ingredients, didn't measure exactly. Would be great to mix and match different herbs and seasonings...I'll definitely be making this again very soon!

Romantic Chicken with Artichokes and Mushrooms

Reviewed: May 24, 2010

Awesome combination of flavors! I didn't measure anything. Also -- dusted chicken in flour to help thicken the sauce, used a mix of white wine/chicken stock/lemon juice for the sauce. Added fresh Greek oregano, garlic, pepper. Served with rosemary garlic mashed potatoes, and a light tomato/cucumber/bell pepper salad. A keeper!

Scalloped Corn and Broccoli

Reviewed: May 24, 2010

Great base recipe! I followed other's advice and omitted all sugar. I added a can of chicken to make it more of a meal, added pepper, garlic and thyme. Topped with breadcrumbs. Tasty! Next time I'll use even more spices, and maybe a little lemon juice to brighten it up. Will make again, for sure.

Lentil Soup with Lemon

Reviewed: Oct. 12, 2009

Delish! I didn't follow this totally as written -- used ginger, curry, cumin, coriander, salt/pepper, cinnamon, nutmeg to season -- no cilantro. Topped with sour cream blended with lemon juice/onion/garlic/coriander/cumin. Yum!!

Jamie's Minestrone

Reviewed: Oct. 4, 2009

Absolutely fantastic! I added extra garlic, was heavy on the herbs and pepper. Thought the red wine added a nice touch --- I wouldn't leave it out! I used whole wheat penne -- I like the nuttiness and density of the pasta, it holds up quite well in this soup.

Garbanzo Bean Chocolate Cake (Gluten Free!)

Reviewed: Oct. 4, 2009

These were great! I only had ~1 c choc chips, so I added a fair amount of cocoa powder and a little extra sugar to make up for it. These are great -- very dense and moist. I made mini-cupcakes instead of a big cake - perfect for gatherings!
