I don't like mixed veggies, so just added additional cabbage. A little onion also adds great flavor. I rarely rank recipes, but this one has hit our "regular" dinner line up. It's quite a treat when you find that kind of recipe. : )

Artichoke and Roasted Red Pepper Dip

Reviewed: Sep. 8, 2002

Roasted red peppers make this COLORFUL!! : ) It's kind of chucky, which was great because you don't fish around in a bunch of sauce to find an artichoke and it is easy to scoop on cracker. It is a SURE FIRE crowd pleaser.

Carrot Cake III

Reviewed: May 29, 2002

There is no such thing as too much icing in my book. : ) I have made many other carrot cakes in my career, but this one is one I'll definitely make again and again. Haven't tried the applesauce trick, but will do so down the line. Thanks for taking my carrot cake up a notch!

Honey Garlic Ribs

Reviewed: May 29, 2002

hmmm. Reminded me of lunch "take out" kind of Chinese food. It was good, but didn't blow me away. Served beside sticky rice, sprinkled sesame on top and garnished with cilantro. Easy to make. Used foil lined foil 9x13 pan. Had difficulty fitting all the meat in, but it did cook through in an hour. Within half and hour removed foil from foil pan and easily rinsed out. The sides on the 9x13 caught whatever mess would have escaped from a cookie sheet into the oven. If I'm ever tempted to make this again, I'll have a pan ready to go.

The Old Boy's Strawberry Pie

Reviewed: May 28, 2002

I liked the fact it was different. You MUST add more strawberries, other wise the "mound" doesn't bake high out on the sides.

Apricot Noodle Kugel

Reviewed: May 24, 2002

My 2 year old loves noodles, and she INHALED this dish. My 5 year old helped me make it, so it is definitely easy. For people who like subtle taste it is on the mark. Next time I'll try and sneak more apricot in and double the topping, which was devine. Think it's worth your trying.

Field Salad

Reviewed: May 22, 2002

Salads aren't usually "stand out" in a meal, but this one is!!! Made this for a large group of in-laws and friends. It was definitely well received.

Orange Cake

Reviewed: Feb. 2, 2002

Served it at my last dinner party. It was a crowd favorite. Super easy to make. Most heard comments was how MOIST it tasted. Citrus lovers will adore the flavor....everyone else will just appreciate it's change of pace from the norm. Probably not going to make it into Gormet magazine, but certainly worth your time to try.
