Tortilla Ham Pinwheels

Reviewed: Sep. 28, 2008

I made these for a buffet lunch I was catering - what a hit! People couldn't stop taking "just one more" =)

This was excellent. I made it for a buffet lunch I was catering and it went over really well. I used canned sockeye salmon which worked really well. I also used more pasta, and the dressing was still sufficient, I didn't need to increase it.

Acorn Squash with Apple

Reviewed: Oct. 10, 2007

I made this for thanksgiving for a family that has never had squash as part of thanksgiving dinner before. In fact, my sister and I are the only ones who even think of squash as a side dish. We made a double recipe, however, hoping that it would be deemed acceptable - it got rave reviews and was thoroughly enjoyed, and out of 18 people, I think only the youngest refused to try it. The only change I'll make next time is likely to omit the walnuts, but that's just a personal preference.

Rhubarb Bread I

Reviewed: May 24, 2007

This recipe turned out really well. A couple of changes: I didn't use any oil, instead I replaced it with unsweetened applesauce. Next time I'll reduce the amount a bit though, since it was a really wet batter and took longer to bake - more like an hour and a bit. Also, I did add cinnamon to the batter, but next time will only sprinkle cinnamon and sugar on top and forget about the margarine/butter. I might wait part way through the baking process before sprinkling it on, so it won't sink. Also, I used pecans, and extra rhubarb.

Apple Scones

Reviewed: May 11, 2007

I loved these scones. I made half the batch, but still used a whole granny smith apple, diced up. Likely too much apple for the dough, but I loved them. I also added cinnamon to the batter, since I love cinnamon. I also replaced the butter with light Becel margarine, next time I'm going to try replacing the sugar with Splenda and see how it goes.

I made this for a group that meets at my church and they absolutely loved it. I'm making it again for a potluck at church, I know it will go over very well.

Apple-Raisin French Toast Casserole

Reviewed: Dec. 28, 2005

I've made this every year for three years for Christmas brunch - my family loves it! I've always made it exactly as the recipe states and have never had a problem with soggy bread. I always use day-old bread since it's drier, that may make the difference.

Rhubarb Meringue Squares

Reviewed: Jun. 23, 2004

I made these squares for an open house at my church and everyone loved them! They looked lovely too. A great way to use up some of my abundant rhubarb.

Curried Pumpkin Soup

Reviewed: Jan. 10, 2004

This soup was wonderful. It smelled so lovely I didn't want to wait the 25 minutes to let it simmer, but it was worth it. The only change I made was to double the onions and garlic, and they still weren't over-powering. Lovely!
