Savory Onion Bread

Reviewed: Nov. 18, 2011

Great recipe with lots of room for variations, but definitely too much salt.

My Kid's Favorite Zucchini Bread

Reviewed: Aug. 1, 2011

Would have given 5 stars, but I found that the bake time and temperature needed adjustment, and loaf pan size wasn't specified. Other than that it was one of the best zucchini breads I've tried.

Like everyone, I made changes to suit my own style and ingredients, but the basic recipe here is a wonderful canvas to build on. It was wonderful. My changes---I used a pint jar of tomato sauce (home canned) in place of the diced tomatoes, sausage cheese torteloni in place of ravioli because that's what I had on hand, added mushrooms, used fresh parsley and pesto concentrate from a tube instead of dried because dried parsley and dried basil are about the most useless and flavorless dried herbs there are, and I added a little bit of grated parmesan to the mozzarella just because I wanted to finish up the bit I had.

Cinnamon Ice Cream

Reviewed: Feb. 10, 2010

The contributer was spot on about this being just like the cinnamon ice cream at Rays. I followed the recipe exactly, and wouldn't change a thing.

Chocolate Biscotti

Reviewed: Dec. 22, 2004

I'm a well-seasoned baker, but I had major trouble with this recipe. I found it spread much too much, and even with a good serrated knife they were very difficult to cut. After two attempts I'm writing this recipe off as a disaster not worth trying again.

Apple Cheese Quick Bread

Reviewed: Nov. 7, 2004

The only reason I didn't rate this recipe 5 stars is that I had a serious sticking problem. I ended up breaking both loaves in half removing them from the pan. It may be that apples and cheddar are a natural combination for me, it may be that I despise Swiss cheese in anything, or it may be that cheddar is what I had on hand, but I used sharp cheddar in this recipe. It was delicious. Also used a combination of apples on hand (Spy, Winesap, Johnathon) instead of Granny Smith which is bland when cooked.

Pumpkin Gingerbread

Reviewed: Nov. 7, 2004

OH MY! This is wonderful! My changes: substitute 1 cup whole wheat flour for 1 cup all-purpose flour, 1 cup brown sugar (dark, preferred) for 1 cup white sugar. Call me frugal, but I also substituted the reserved liquid from fresh-cooked pumpkin for the water in the recipe. Apple cider would also be a good substitute. Top this with whipped cream, and you have dessert.

Round Steak Sauerbraten

Reviewed: Aug. 5, 2004

The gravy was a bit thin. Will use less water next time. There will definitely be a next time, though. The flavor was excellent. Four diners, a double batch and no leftovers. It was a hit here.

Potato Chip Cookies VI

Reviewed: Jan. 14, 2004

This recipe is awesome!We thought Grandma's recipe for Potato Chip Cookies was gone forever, but this is so very close. Doing a little happy cookie dance at my house. One note, I got nearly 6 dozen cookies out of this recipe, not the 3 dozen stated.
