Garlicky Quinoa and Garbanzo Bean Salad

Reviewed: Mar. 19, 2012

This was very good and easy. Wasn't sure if I should cook the broccoli or not, so I parboiled it for about 3 minutes. I didn't have any tarragon, but I added about 1/4 cup of toasted slivered almonds and it worked well.

Caramel Pound Cake

Reviewed: Dec. 28, 2008

This was very good, but extremely rich and it made an enormous cake. I was worried about the frosting setting, but I left it to cool a second time after beating it a bit, and it turned opaque and solidified - a lot like fudge!

Best Buckwheat Pancakes

Reviewed: Mar. 3, 2008

These were very nice. They were easy to make and I got four 15cm diameter pancakes from the mixture - just the right amount for two for breakfast!

Creamy Zucchini with Linguine

Reviewed: Nov. 8, 2005

This was very good, but I only got 2-3 serves out of it. Also the milk curdled, but it tasted OK. I only used about 3 tbsp of oil and the zucchini shrank so much that next time I'd use 3 or 4 of them.

Spicy Black Bean Potato Salad

Reviewed: Oct. 15, 2005

Despite me overcooking the potatoes, this was still very good. Being vegetarian, I left out the bacon and I also substituted red pepper for green, pickled jalapenos for fresh (can't get fresh ones easily here) and Dijon mustard for brown mustard (don't know what that is). I'm looking forward to the leftovers for lunch today.
