my go-to recipe for banana bread! needs a little extra cooking time, generally about 15 more minutes, but otherwise great as is. i add walnuts or pecans depending on what i'm craving but equally good without nuts.

Strawberry Spinach Salad I

Reviewed: Oct. 16, 2012

great flavors! made this as a side for a holiday meal and everyone loved it. had a bit too much dressing so you may be able to cut back, or serve on the side for people to toss themselves.

Real Strawberry Frosting

Reviewed: Oct. 16, 2012

good but a bit too sweet, even though it tastes real, so i added cream cheese which helped quite a bit. overall very good and will make again.

Chocolate Cupcakes

Reviewed: Oct. 16, 2012

very chocolaty and delicious, you could eat them without icing. after reading reviews, decided to try more of a buttermilk flavor and added lemon juice to the milk since i did not have buttermilk on hand. worked out great!

Curried Butternut Squash and Pear Soup

Reviewed: Mar. 20, 2012

Delicious as is! Only deviation was to used pre-cut squash, since the store did not have any whole, but I stuck that in the oven for recommended time and turned out great. Flavors work really well together; could use with 1/2 and 1/2 or without.

Vegan Arepas Made with Polenta

Reviewed: Nov. 13, 2011

Great starting point but I did make a few changes to spice things up so I'm not giving 5 stars on that basis - but the finished product was great! Marinated the tofu in a sauce of blended chipotle pepers, oil, and garlic. Made polenta from scratch with soy milk, oven roasted tomato, and diced jalepeno. Seared both the final sliced polenta and tofu instead of broiling. Followed the directions to plate and really enjoyed the flavors!

Corn Tortilla Quiche

Reviewed: Dec. 26, 2010

Love this recipe! I use beef or pork chorizo instead of breakfast sausage for a little more flavor. Also substitute fresh diced ancho chile for the canned green chile and add one bell peper (red or orange). I've made this with both the shour cream substitute and as written with cottage cheese and both turned out delicious!
