Wow. Yum. Just made these with my 3-yr old and they are GOOOOD. Thanks for the recipe!Made some adjustments based on the other reviews and subbed 3/4 cup whole wheat flour for 3/4 cups of the white flour. Because the wheat flour is more absorbant, increased yogurt to 3/4 cup and added 1/2 cup milk. Made 20 standard cupcake sized muffins, baked in 22 minutes, and they will not last much longer than that in this house!

Pierogi (Polish Dumplings)

Reviewed: Jan. 1, 2010

My daughter said these were the second best pierogi she ever had...the first were made by a friend's grandmother who was visiting from Poland, so I'll take second best. The dough was hard to work with though...I think I had kneaded in an additional cup of flour, at least, before it was un-sticky enough to roll out. Could the recipe have been for a different flour than typical American all-purpose? I did use "light" sour cream, maybe that affected the dough's consistency. At any rate, instead of using the sauerkraut filling I used a second pototo mixture with shredded white cheddar and carmelized onions...very tasty. Thanks for the recipe...I didn't have a pierogi recipe in ANY of my cookbooks!

Pizza Dough II

Reviewed: Mar. 7, 2009

This is by far the best homemade pizza dough I've tried. I didn't have bread flour so I subbed all-purpose and it was fine, though I may have used 6 cups not 5 1/2. After reading the other reviews I wished I had a pizza stone but I did prebake the crusts on the pans for 8 minutes before adding the toppings and they were perfect. My 7-year old couldn't tell the whole wheat was there or she wouldn't have eaten it, but she gobbled it down and asked for seconds. Thanks for the great recipe!

Herbed Lentils and Rice

Reviewed: Feb. 3, 2009

This was fabulous. A nice alternative to the more typical rice and beans. I didn't have swiss on hand so I used 1/2 cup of colby jack and skipped the additional cheese on top, and my family loved it. Thanks!

Beef Pot Pie II

Reviewed: Nov. 25, 2008

This turned out pretty well...the only thing that didn't work quite as I expected is the underside of the crust didn't solidify nicely...I think the recipe needs to point out that the filling should be HOT when the crust is spooned on top to avoid this. Also, I didn't have the seasoning on hand so I skipped it (and the bouillon) and it was seasoned enough for my family's taste.

Poppy Seed Lemon Loaves

Reviewed: Nov. 25, 2008

This was a very nice recipe. I made six muffins instead of two small loaves, baked for 25-30 minutes. Like another reviewer, next time I'll probably add more lemon peel or some lemon extract. I sprinkled some sugar on the top for a crispy brown effect. Everyone loved these!

Mediterranean Potato Salad

Reviewed: Aug. 16, 2004

Interesting recipe with a great mix of ingredients. May want to scale down the amount of lemon juice and feta...this salad had a little too much "pizazz" for most of my guests.
