Very tasty. The lemon really infuses the pork. I browned it on the stove top first, then put in the oven uncovered for 30 minutes at 400 degrees. I let it sit for 10 minutes, covered before I served it. Everyone loved it. Will definately do it again.It definately does have a lot of marinade left over.

Artichoke Chicken

Reviewed: Oct. 23, 2008

Not great. Used 1/2 sour cream & 1/2 mayonaise & turned out a little to sour. Also used marinated artichokes. Was a little to much of a flavor explosion in the wrong direction. Needs some fine tuning & downgrading.

Papaya Surprise Smoothie

Reviewed: Aug. 30, 2008

Execellent. Great way to incorporate papaya into your diet. Have ended up throwing any fruit I have on hand, makes it even better, especially cherries.

Tapenade

Reviewed: Feb. 1, 2003

While the flavor wasn't bad, the dip doesn't look so appetizing. As a result, a lot of my guests just skipped over it. Most of them had never heard of Tapenade & were not moved to taste it. Threw most of it out. Big waste.

Smoked Salmon Spread

Reviewed: Feb. 1, 2003

Although I don't like Salmon I thought I'd try this spread since it had such good reviews. Though it was a little pricey, everyone seemed to like it. A close friend even asked if there were any leftovers she could take.

Ham and Fresh Basil Pinwheels

Reviewed: Feb. 1, 2003

These were wonderful. They were easy to make. 1 package of tortillas is plenty. I followed instructions exactly & the taste was amazing. The combination of the fresh basil & the sundried tomatoes really made this a hit. I made these 1 day ahead of time, covered them well with saran wrap & they held up nicely. Will definately do again.
