Orange-Chip Cranberry Bread

Reviewed: Dec. 8, 2011

What a wonderful combination of flavours! I made a large loaf so I had to adjust the baking time. It was moist and delicious and very festive looking when sliced. I opted not to use the glaze as the bread is sweet enough on its own.

Chicken and Gnocchi Soup

Reviewed: Sep. 28, 2011

We have been making more homemade soups lately and this soup is one of the best! I poached 2 boneless chicken breasts,cut them into cubes and added them to the soup. Like most of the other reviews I didn't add the optional cornstarch. It is creamy and comforting and a new family favourite.

Shepherd's Pie VI

Reviewed: Sep. 22, 2011

Great recipe for the fall and winter seasons. Next time I will add a little Worcestershire sauce because we like the flavour it adds.

Raspberry Chocolate Chip Muffins

Reviewed: Aug. 4, 2011

These muffins are full of flavour. The combination of tart/sweet raspberries and the chocolate is divine. The addition of oatmeal gives the muffins a dense texture not cake like at all which is what I look for in a muffin. I substituted lemon juice for the orange juice because I had no orange juice available.

Bellepepper's Orzo and Wild Rice Salad

Reviewed: Jul. 19, 2011

This salad is going on our family favourites list! I made the rice and orzo ahead of time then tossed everything but the nuts and parsley together a few hours before serving. Everyone then added the nuts and parsley to their individual servings because of personal tastes. I thought there would be lots left over but the salad was soooo good that there was barely enough for a serving for lunch for one. It is a great recipe for my vegetarian daughter. Thanks so much for sharing your recipe Bellepepper!

Glazed Meatloaf II

Reviewed: Jun. 13, 2011

I made this for a change from my usual meatloaf recipe(Martha Stewart's Mom's recipe). It turned out moist and held together really well when I sliced it. Great recipe!!

Spinach Ranch Salad

Reviewed: Nov. 5, 2009

A nice change from regular spinach salad. The addition of feta cheese gives it a flavour boost. This salad will be a part of our menu planning.

Hearty Tuna Casserole

Reviewed: Oct. 22, 2008

I have made a very similar casserole from a magazine with slightly different measurements. 3 cups of rotini instead of noodles. 2/3 of a cup of light sour cream instead of 1/3 cup. 2tsp dijon mustard instead of prepared mustard. 1/2 tsp salt instead of 1/4tsp. The tomato is sliced and placed on the top layer just under the cheese. It has been a family favourite for over 13 years.

Fudge Puddles

Reviewed: Sep. 11, 2008

These look and taste great! They were easy to make too. I didn't double the dough recipe so I had a lot of the chocolate filling left over. However, I am going to use it as a topping for cocoa squares. Also, I did not put the pecans on top because my children are not fond of nuts in baking and they still tasted great. They are a nice change from the usual lunch bag cookies.
