Beth's Spicy Oatmeal Raisin Cookies

Reviewed: Nov. 17, 2007

These cookies are yummy! I didn't have butter flavoured shortening, so I just used regular shortening. I used butter that had less fat and I reduced the white sugar by a bit. The taste was still nice and sweet, I probably could have reduced the sugar even more. It turned out crispy on the outside and chewy on the insdie. The spices make it gingerbread-like. I love oatmeal raisin cookies, and the spices give it a nice kick.

Simple White Cake

Reviewed: Nov. 4, 2007

I made this recipe as cupcakes. Very yummy, but like the other members said, the texture is dense. I would have liked a more fluffy texture but it was still good. I altered the recipe a bit by increasing the amount of milk as others have suggested. I put in about 3/4 cups. I did not adjust the vanilla amount, it was just right. Good recipe but still looking for a better one for cupcakes.

Light and Fluffy Spinach Quiche

Reviewed: Nov. 4, 2007

Excellent recipe. I've made this twice already. I changed a few things as suggested by the other members. I sauteed the onions first and put in 5 eggs instead of 4. I also decreased the amount of frozen spinach by 1/2. I used marble cheese. I think next time I will use a deep dish pie crust because it was quite full after putting everything in. Yummy.

Oriental Pork Chops

Reviewed: Nov. 4, 2007

Tasty and flavourful recipe! I omitted the ginger but it was still good. I let it marinate overnight. I would make it again!

Easy Key Lime Pie I

Reviewed: Sep. 26, 2007

This pie was excellent!! It's so fast and easy to make. It was delicious! I got praises by everyone who tried it. I didn't find any key lime juice so I mixed lime juice with lemon juice like some other reviewers recommended. This is definitely a keeper!

I've made this a couple of times. It's quick and easy and so delicious! I used olive oil instead of butter, and used more garlic.

Orzo with Parmesan and Basil

Reviewed: Jun. 10, 2007

Very yummy. It was extremely easy to make and delicious. Very flavourful. Good as a side dish. It was a little too salty though..the first time I made it. I've repeated the recipe several times putting 1/2 the amount of chicken broth and substituting the other 1/2 with water. Excellent!!
