I couldn't even wait to finish baking them to write my review. My son has an egg allergy so I was thrilled to find this recipe. However, the dough was way too dry and took me half the night to get to a consistency that I was able to roll out (adding water and working with my hands). Next time I would cut down on the flour and then only add as needed. The taste was fine, would never know the egg is missing. Drop cookies would probably work better but be prepared if you want to roll out for Gingerbread Men!

Clark's Quiche

Reviewed: Aug. 22, 2008

I used the pillsbury pie crust and pre-baked as others suggested (probably not needed). I layered the ingredients but it was messy so I would just mix them all together next time. Big hit at our neighborhood play group.

Spicy Bean Salsa

Reviewed: Aug. 22, 2008

Brought to a BBQ and had plenty left which leads me to believe that it wasn't a favorite. However, I had no mango salsa left!

Per others suggestions increased spices and used applesauce and wheat four. I also added mini chocolate chips to one of the loafs. Needed a little longer to bake but excellent texture and taste.

Garlic Prime Rib

Reviewed: Jan. 18, 2007

Made for Christmas Eve - was a bit hit! We needed it more medium-well since I'm pregnant, so cooked it as follows: 460 for 12 minutes, 400 for 8 minutes, 325 for 20 minutes/lb. We took it out of the oven when the temp reached 135-140 and served it after about 20 minutes when it hit 150. Also added 1.5c beef broth and .5c. red wine to make a lovely au jus.

Rosemary Roasted Turkey

Reviewed: Jan. 18, 2007

Followed the recipe exactly as written. Rubbing under the skin was a bit time consuming but definitely worth the effort. Our Thanksgiving guests raved that this was the best turkey ever!
