just came out of the oven, and i couldn't wait for it to cool. delicious! *update* i just made this again, but this time i wanted a chewier bread so i used half whole wheat flour and i added an extra 1/3 cup of milk, and then i let it rise overnight in the fridge. the whole wheat takes a bit longer to rise-- i think an extra 10 minutes or so for the second rise after i rolled it out. also i used 1 cup of raisins and one granny smith apple-- i think this version is even better than the original!

Sweetly Stewed Rhubarb

Reviewed: May 28, 2011

So yummy! I just made this and I followed the advice of others to start low on the sugar, taste and adjust. (Of course it tasted so good I was doing more tasting and less adjusting...)I like my rhurarb pretty tangy, and I had added a handful of strawberries, so I only used 1 cup of sugar. I also found that it required way to much water. I had to let my cook for 90 minutes so that it wasn't soupy and was nice and thick.

Rhubarb Blueberry Muffins

Reviewed: Jul. 16, 2009

these were super tasty-- however i made the mistake of making them with lowfat sour cream. do not try that! they do not stay together. next time i will definitely use regular sour cream. i followed the others recommendations and increased the baking powder and added a cinnamon/ brown sugar topping. i also lightly floured the blueberries to keep them from sinking to the bottom. i think some lemon zest and a bit of lemon juice would take them from good to excellent.

Sweet Pepper Pasta Toss with Kale

Reviewed: Jul. 11, 2009

this was quite yummy. i followed the recommendations and used 4 cups of kale, worcestshire sauce, olives and capers. since my csa box came with zucchini and garlic scapes i added those as well. i also used 1/3 cup of the cooking water for the pasta to make it a little more moist.

Vegan Red Lentil Soup

Reviewed: Jun. 1, 2009

Apple, Beet and Avocado Salad

Reviewed: Oct. 28, 2007

I thought this was delicious. I added goat cheese which was a great complement to the sweetness of the beets and the apples. I also realized at the very last second that I used up all the apple cider and apple juice in the house... so I had to substitute 3/4 cup water with 1/2 tsp of sugar. It was still delicious but I think it would be better with the cider.

Megan's Granola

Reviewed: Jan. 20, 2007

Super yummy-- I just finished making it and am already planning what to add next time. I used cranberries but I think dried apples and raisins would be tasty. Makes tonnes though-- I halved it and still have plenty
