My Rough Khoubz -- Moroccan Flat Bread.

Posted by Miss Elizabeth  

I only tried this, after worrying about the amount of yeast required (3 1/2 tablespoons! and I cut that down to an even 3...), because some of the comments indicated that the bread didn't taste "yeasty". Wrong. I baked until it was quite brown... — VictoriaL Nov 5, 2006

Chana Dal With Bell Pepper

Posted by eatrealfood  

Bought a lauki, couldn't find the recipe that I had wanted to use it in, so I found this one. It was really good. I soaked the dal in water for 2 hours, then just to clarify the directions on "time"-- it took 30 minutes for the dal to soften then... — VictoriaL Aug 8, 2006

Hot Artichoke, Spinach and Bacon dip

(1 person found this helpful) Posted by JustJanS  

Oh YUM!!! Everyone liked this, and one guest said that she could make a meal out of it! I used turkey bacon (4 slices) instead of pork and used light mayo and sour cream. For oven temp., I used 375F and that worked well. Also, I made the... — VictoriaL Feb 16, 2006

Grilled Salmon and Smokey Tomato-chipotle Sauce

Posted by ~Rita~  

This was excellent. Even my husband, who is not a big fan of salmon, liked this dish a lot. I served it with a side of rotini to soak up the extra sauce-- wonderful!!! — VictoriaL Jan 29, 2006

Chestnut, Onion and Cornbread Stuffing

(2 people found this helpful) Posted by Pianolady  

Very flavorful! I used fresh roasted chestnuts (chopped), decreased the butter to 1/4 cup (could have decreased more and may next time), and used Vidalia onions instead of the red onions and leeks. The only problem was-- in now way does this... — VictoriaL Dec 2, 2005

Since I don't eat chocolate, I can't give this a personal review but I made it for my husband and he just loved it! The only alterations that I made to the recipe was to sub 1 cup of the all-purpose flour with whole wheat and I decreased the... — VictoriaL Aug 30, 2005

Sweet and Spicy Shrimp Kabobs

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

DH and I agreed that this is the absolute best grilled shrimp we've ever had. The chipotle added just the right amount of a smoky "bite", the honey and lime balanced the heat-- yum! I served it over tomato-rice as a main course (accompanied my... — VictoriaL May 9, 2005

Two, Two, Two Reviews in One! A friend made this for Christmas Day (I directed her to this website for another recipe, and she found this) and she absolutely raved about how good it was and how her guests loved it. So, of course, I enjoy... — VictoriaL Jan 2, 2005

I made the marinade, but used sliced fontina cheese and roasted red peppers. After marinating for 4 hours, I drained about half of the marinade, then served the cheese & peppers with sliced green onions over the top. This lasted about 20... — VictoriaL Dec 30, 2004

Mixed Greens With Caramelized Pears and Walnuts

EXCELLENT salad! It made about twice as much dressing as needed, but that was great since I used it for other salads. I used pecans and walnut oil. — VictoriaL Dec 5, 2004

Vietnamese Ginger Chicken Soup

(2 people found this helpful) Posted by Carianne  

This was good, and has definate possibilities. As a matter of personal taste, next time I will reduce the fish sauce to 2 teaspoons and halve the amount of mint. I increased the rice vermicelli to 4 ounces (since that's what I had and didn't... — VictoriaL Oct 13, 2004

Tejas Chipotle Pizza

(1 person found this helpful) Posted by Susie D  

This had a really good flavor, but I need to work on the fat content! It was published without calculating the nutritional values of the ground turkey and cheese. I kept the ground turkey, but subbed 5 ounces of lowfat mozzarella for the... — VictoriaL Aug 13, 2004

My search for a particular MaiFun recipe is almost over with this ChowFun recipe! I used chicken, thin mai fun noodles, decreased the oil considerably (to 1 1/2 tablespoons for the entire recipe, and I boiled the noodles instead of frying them),... — VictoriaL Jul 27, 2004

Key Lime Cheesecake

(1 person found this helpful) Posted by PCrocker  

This was really good! I made some changes-- subbed graham cracker crumbs for the vanilla wafers (had to use them up-- they were getting stale), and I lightened the filling by using 2 packages of Neufachel cheese and 1 of regular cream cheese, and... — VictoriaL Jul 18, 2004

Triple Lemon Ripple Cake

(1 person found this helpful) Posted by Charmed  

Mmmmmmm! I did a "lazy thing" and subbed a white cake mix for the cake part of the recipe (running out of time). I lowered the fat in the filling by using neufachel cheese and 1/4 cup Egg Beaters instead of an egg. I added 3 tablespoons fresh... — VictoriaL May 31, 2004

Words fail me (and that really doesn't happen too often!). Absolutely delicious-- and I've "hooked" a few friends on these as well (heck, what are friends for???) Thanks, Rita! — VictoriaL May 25, 2004
