I love this recipe. Although I have followed the recipe to a "T" I have also used canned diced tomatoes in the place of fresh tomatoes and brown rice. Additionally I like to add 3 cloves of chopped garlic to the onions. I think the use of canned tomatoes with all the juice and the chopped garlic gives the end product a more moist and desirable taste. Very delicious and very filling!

Marinated Tuna Steak

Reviewed: Apr. 14, 2009

I really liked this recipe, the marinade was awesome. I followed the directions to a T and my husband was really impressed. The only thing I will do different next time is allow it to sit in the refrigerator for more than 30 minutes. I would have like the favor to be more pronounced because it was so good!

Strawberry Oatmeal Breakfast Smoothie

Reviewed: Apr. 14, 2009

I loved this smoothie. I really never thought to make a smoothie with oatmeal, but it's a really nice, filling addition. Also as I'm not a sweets person I left out the sugar and substituted the vanilla extract for almond extract. Completely delicious. It was basically room temperature when I tried it so I refrigerated the other half before drinking. Great recipe!

World's Best Lasagna

Reviewed: Feb. 23, 2009

This was fabulous! The sauce was so flavorful. I followed the recommendation of a few other reviews and added a splash of red wine to the sauce while it was cooking and also did not cook the noodles prior to layering/baking. I will definitely make this again and plan to add some zucchini. YUM!

Baked Asparagus with Balsamic Butter Sauce

Reviewed: Feb. 23, 2009

I would never think to mix balsamic vinegar and soy sauce! I really liked this recipe. The only addition I made to it was sprinkling the asparagus with about a tablespoon of balsamic vinegar prior to baking. I don't know what it added to the recipe, but I am a huge fan of balsamic vinegars and wanted to make sure there was a little extra on there.

Vegetarian Chickpea Sandwich Filling

Reviewed: Jan. 21, 2009

This was fabulous! I am big on dill and actually added a little extra after following the recipe. I left out the onions (not a big fan) and served on homemade toasted wheat bread with alfalfa sprouts, red leaf lettuce, Cabot cheddar cheese and carrots. I highly recommend this recipe.
