Pasta with Cilantro Pesto and Barley

Reviewed: Aug. 23, 2008

I love cilantro and arugula but I couldn't even finish eating my large batch of this recipe. Something about the competing strong flavors of these greens made the dish tangy in a way that tasted almost like it had gone bad.

Spinach Chickpea Curry

Reviewed: Jul. 27, 2008

I couldn't quite seem to bring much flavor to this recipe, even after doubling the spinach, doubling the curry paste, and adding red pepper flakes. Otherwise, it's not bad, and certainly easy to make. As much as I love chickpeas, I would have cut down on the amount of chickpeas in the recipe.

Garlic Salmon

Reviewed: Jul. 13, 2008

LOVE this easy recipe. I have one important suggestion for this and all salmon recipes: make a few incisions in the salmon skin before baking - this ensures that the juices from the fat in the skin soak through the whole fish, making it juicier, and more flavorful!

Spruced Up Mashed Potatoes

Reviewed: Jun. 8, 2008

This recipe is a great idea, though mine ended up a little watery and flavorless, so I made the following important changes: I added condensed cream of mushroom soup for creaminess and flavor, more carrots, and threw peas on top for extra color and some more veggies!
