Roasted Vegetables and Puff Pastry

Reviewed: Nov. 19, 2008

Love it...it is so quick and easy to prepare. We usually use goat cheese instead of feta and add any veggies we have on hand. We don't turn it out but prepare it in a nice stone baker and serve straight from the stone.

Strawberry/Rhubarb Crumb Pie

Reviewed: Sep. 26, 2008

I'm giving this 5 stars because the mistakes were mine! I didn't have fresh rhubarb or strawberries (end of summer in Ontario!) so I used frozen...the results were a runny mess. So I drained off the liquid, put it in a pot and boiled it until it thickened and then poured it over the pie and baked it and additional 15 minutes. The results weren't pretty but the taste was amazing. Next time, if I have to use frozen I'll cook the filling a bit before adding to the pie shell.

Buttermilk Pancakes II

Reviewed: Aug. 22, 2007

These are the best pancakes ever...I'm about to leave for camp where I cook for 65 people and I wouldn't even think of taking boxed pancake mix. The kids loved them last year and I know they'll be a big hit again.

Taco Seasoning I

Reviewed: Jan. 18, 2007

I love this recipe. I was cook at a camp for grades 4-6 this summer and I made this recipe x10 and added it to ground chicken. The kids and counsellors loved it and want to have it again next summer!! I also leave out the salt when I'm making it for myself, since I'm on a weight loss program--perfect!!

Homemade Crispy Seasoned French Fries

Reviewed: Jul. 17, 2005

These are great! I have a daughter who thinks french fries are a food group and she just loved these. I read the reviews before I proceeded and decided to cut my potates with a crinkle cutter and then pat them dry with paper towels. I dipped them in the batter, placed them in the deep fryer and 7 minutes later they were done. I did have to use more than 1/2 cup of water because the batter was just paste but otherwise there was no problem.

Apricot Squares

Reviewed: Jun. 6, 2004

These were great! My husband actually made them and did a great job (what a sous chef!!). He did take them out a bit early so they were a bit gooey in the centre but they were still great. We did leave out the walnuts since they were being served at nut-free facility and I don't think they were missed.

Aussie Chicken

Reviewed: Aug. 2, 2003

With 45 minutes till dinner, I discovered I didn't have enough main dish to serve. My daughter quickly logged on to Allrecipes and entered the ingredients I had on hand-Chicken, cheese & bacon and Voila!!! Aussie Chicken appeared. My husband pouunded the meat while I made the sauce. My daughter diced the bacon and sliced the mushrooms and through them in a pan. I sprinkled the chicken with seasoning salt, microwaved it until just pink, poured on half the sauce,spread on the mushrooms, bacon and sprinkled with cheese on hand. Popped it into the oven and twenty minutes later listened to my quests "OOOH and MMMMM" over it. I heated the left over sauce for anyone with a wicked sweet and sour tooth!!! and served along with rice and green beans. What a great dish! Thanks.

Veggie Burgers

Reviewed: Apr. 5, 2003

I thought these were quite good. The true test was when even the "meat only" and the "I don't eat burgers" girls ate them and declared, "Hey, these are good!!!" I've tried several fast food and packaged "Veggie Burgers" and found them to be either too spicy or have too much filler. I read some of the reviews first so I wasn't surprised to find the mixture somewhat sticky. This could be because some of the 1 1/2 cups of flour should have been included in the mixture since there is far too much of it to simply dip 8 patties in, 1/2 a cup of flour is plenty for that purpose. I sprinkled about 3/4 of a cup of flour into the mixture which removed the stickiness. I used only zucchini since summer squash was unavailable the first time and way too expensive when it was available. A little grated red pepper added some "great" colour and flavour. These will be an added favourite to "Burger Night".
