Excellent recipe. I substituted Yoki gluten free seasoned casava flour for the breadcrumbs to make this gluten free, otherwise no changes, and it was perfect!

Cheesy Ham and Hash Brown Casserole

Reviewed: Apr. 12, 2012

Yum! I made this exactly as shown except that I substituted 1 cup of dry creamy potato soup mix (Bear Creek), with 1 cup water and 1 cup 2% milk, for the condensed, canned soup. It was even better left-over than it was fresh, and I froze several servings, which were fine reheated in the microwave.

Italian Bread Using a Bread Machine

Reviewed: Mar. 13, 2012

Very good bread. It's a lot easier to eliminate the cutting board and form the loaves on the baking sheet, sprinkled with cornmeal. No transfer necessary after rising, and the risen loaves don't get shaken down trying to transfer them from the board to the baking sheet.

Garbanzo Bean Chocolate Cake (Gluten Free!)

Reviewed: Mar. 13, 2012

Wow! This was so good! I have celiac disease so must eat gluten free, and this is the first cake I've had anywhere (including home-made, restaurant, bakery, cruise ship) that is as good as a regular cake. The rest of the family liked it too. It's more like a moist brownie than cake, but it's delicious! I cut the servings to 9 to automatically recalculate the recipe for the smaller size can of beans and 3 eggs instead of 4, and I made this smaller size in a loaf pan. No changes except the size. It was a little more crumbly than standard cake or brownies, but not annoyingly so.

Garlic Alfredo Tilapia

Reviewed: Mar. 7, 2012

This was great! I followed the recipe exactly, except that I used salmon fillets instead of Talapia. My husband doesn't like salmon, but this recipe made it palatable for him, and I loved it!

Spinach Beef Stir-Fry

Reviewed: Feb. 1, 2012

My husband and I loved this dish just as it is! I used wheat-free soy sauce to make this recipe gluten free. I didn't have any fennel, so I made the Chinese 5-spice powder from the individual ingredients (pepper, cloves, 5-star anise, cinnamon, and fennel seeds, 1 teaspoon, ground, of each),minus the fennel,and served it over jasmine rice. The Chinese 5-spice powder, minus the fennel, was key to the exquisite flavor of this dish, and the amount recommended was just right for us. The excellent taste made me feel like a gourmet cook, even though it was quite simple and easy to prepare.

Gluten Free Onion Rings

Every bit as good as "normal" onion rings. I am the only one in my house with a gluten allergy, but we all like these onion rings.

Flavorful Flounder

Reviewed: Apr. 9, 2011

An excellent way to flavor flounder fillets. I substituted dried onion flakes for the green onions and omitted the salt. I mixed all of the ingredients together (including the lemon juice), and topped the raw fish fillets with the mixture, then baked them in the oven for 15 minutes at 350 degrees, on the top oven rack, close to the heating element, to make the topping brown a little bit. Delicious! I used the same recipe for Talapia fillets, and it also worked well. I had one left over, and it became much firmer after 24 hours in the refrigerator. I ate this cold, dipping pieces in cocktail sauce. It was better than shrimp cocktail! Really!

Easy Batter Fruit Cobbler

Reviewed: Aug. 22, 2010

This recipe is a hit at my house! I used nectarines and peaches the first time, and when my son asked if I could make it again a couple of days later, I had peaches and pears on hand, so just used them and that worked out fine too.
