Herbed Quinoa Salad

(2 people found this helpful) Posted by ~Rita~  

I really like quinoa, but I was dissapointed in this dish. To me, it just tasted to "herb-y" — it felt as if the herbs were in conflict rather than in concert with each other. Next time I'll cut out the shallots all together, and cut back on... — federico Sep 14, 2004

Marinated Chicken in a Lemon and Tarragon Dressing

Posted by MarieAlice  

I decided not to rate this becuase, after experimenting with tarragon over the past few days, I've realized that I just don't like it. Needless to say, I therefore didn't find this dish to be very good. It was easy to make — I cooked the... — federico Sep 14, 2004

Oriental Black Bean Sauce

(2 people found this helpful) Posted by Daydream  

I was really excited to try this dish after having a delicious asian black bean sauce at a local Chinese resturaunt. That sauce was rich and complex, but there was definately something lacking from this one. I made the sauce the night before,... — federico Sep 14, 2004

Well, I'll just go ahead and add another well-deserved 5 star review to this one. I am a huge fan of sweet potatoes, and this is one of the best preperations I have tried. I used 3 large potatoes, and veggie broth. I doubled the amount of broth... — federico Sep 13, 2004

Honey Peach Bran Muffins

(2 people found this helpful) Posted by Sue L  

Definately some of the best muffins I have ever had — 5 star all the way! Peaches are in season now, so I used 1 fresh peach (not quite ripe — it ripens in the oven) instead of canned. Also, rather than the flour/bran combination in the... — federico Aug 12, 2004

Tandoori Chicken Burgers With Creamy Chutney

Posted by Jewelies  

Very tasty. I only needed 3 patties, so I used 1 lb of ground turkey breast (my store needs 24 hours notice for ground ckicken), and halved the breadcrumbs and spices. I actually thought that the burgers could have been a bit more flavorful, so... — federico Aug 6, 2004

Tex-Mex Chicken Fajitas

(3 people found this helpful) Posted by Bev  

This is one of the best recipies I have ever tried for fajitas. I've made it twice now, and we'ver really enjoyed them both times. I prefer to slice the chicken first, then marinate it overnight. I don't marinate the veggies at all — I just... — federico Jul 29, 2004

Fresh Basil Tortellini Salad

(2 people found this helpful) Posted by Karen=^..^=  

It's been so hot this summer that I feel like every hot dish needs a "cool" side to it. Thus, when I made Balsamic Chicken Breasts (#91266), this seemed to be a perfect complement. It sure was — very tasty and complemented the main dish nicely.... — federico Jul 21, 2004

Pan Roasted Chicken and Veggies

(5 people found this helpful) Posted by Marie  

I thought this was pretty good — tasty, but not "overflowing" with flavor. I used chicken breasts instead of thighs, and added a chopped zuccini 10 with ten minutes left to cook (definately a recommeneded addition — the zuccini was delicious).... — federico Jul 4, 2004

Curried Chickpeas and Black Beans-Low Fat

Posted by Kozmic Blues  

5 stars just does not do this dish justice! Indeed, it's one of the best curry dishes I have ever eaten. The lemon juice is the key - it finishes the dish increadibly well, and really balances the flavors of the ginger, curry, and onions. The... — federico Jun 22, 2004

Egg-Free Oatmeal Whole Wheat Quick Bread

Well, this just didn't work very well for me. I only cooked it for 25 minutes, and it was still burned when I took it out of the over - so make sure you watch it carefully. Also, the bread didn't really rise at all in the oven. Of course, it's... — federico Jun 9, 2004
