These were very easy to make and were pretty darn tasty. I used chopped walnuts with my filling and cooked them for 10 minutes at 400, then another 10 at 300 and that was enough! I did find the consistency to be a little too granular.

African Peanut Soup

Reviewed: Dec. 4, 2007

Loved the flavour, but the rice took MUCH longer to cook than expected. Next time I will add the rice right away instead of waiting or use instant rice.

Dumplings

Reviewed: Oct. 31, 2007

I am just a beginner in the kitchen, so this rating may be more a reflection of my skill than of the recipe. When I cut in the tablespoon of margarine the dry mix was still quite powdery -not crumbly. So I added more until it started to resemble crumbles. After I added the milk the mixture became very sticky -not exactly what I'd call soft. I see the recipe said it made 6 dumplings, but it seemed to me that they would be HUGE. So I dropped nine large spoonfuls of the dough into my vegetable chowder. After the 15 minutes of simmering without lifting the lid they were still very dense and seemed uncooked in the middle -so I left them another 15 minutes. It didn't make any difference. They seemed reluctant to cook in the middle. They remained dense and moist. I don't know if they were just too big or what I did wrong.

Mom's Brown Gravy

Reviewed: Oct. 27, 2007

I have missed having gravy at supper b/c my husband is vegetarian -but this stuff is great! I'll be making this recipe again and again in the future.

Restaurant Style Egg Drop Soup

Reviewed: Oct. 20, 2007

Loved this recipe. It was simple and tasty. I used vegetable broth instead of chicken because my husband is vegetarian. I also added the cornstarch first, like others had recommended.

Tomato Rice Stew

Reviewed: Apr. 16, 2007

This was a hearty dish and I enjoyed the flavor, but it required more water than it called for. The water completely reduced before the potatoes had cooked.

Green Banana Fries

Reviewed: Apr. 10, 2007

There were definitely yummy. I loved the flavor, but they were too greasy and I prefer my fries to be crispier. I fried them in a deep skillet of oil and waited until they were a dark golden brown, but they were still flimsy which made it more difficult to sop up the oil. Also, they stuck together a bit.
