Moo Saeng Chae (Marinated Radish Salad)

Posted by Cookgirl  

The marinade is right on! This would be a great salad to take to a potluck. It could also be used as a sushi roll topping. Very crisp and refreshing! — ~Jen~ Aug 26, 2009

Blue Cheese Vodka Balls (Finger Food)

Posted by hellokitty  

I splurged for a bottle of Absolut Peppar but it wasn't worth it - I honestly couldn't taste it or the parsley...just tastes like blue cheese and sesame seeds. I'm not leaving any stars because I had technical difficulties. The balls kept melting.... — ~Jen~ Aug 21, 2009

Fruit and Nutty Bars

(1 person found this helpful) Posted by Midwest Maven  

Clever use of contest ingredients! The combination of textures is really fun and of course, considering the chocolate and butter, how could it not taste sinful? My only constructive criticism is that it was really hard to get these out of the pan.... — ~Jen~ Aug 21, 2009

Individual Dilled Salmon Pizzas

Posted by Nif  

What a creative use of the contest ingredients...I really enjoyed this pizza. I'm a caper fiend so will in the future replace the pimentos with capers, but understand pimentos were one the required ingredients - so tried it your way this time. Way... — ~Jen~ Aug 21, 2009

China Lily Chicken Salad

Posted by Deb's Recipes  

A perfect combination of ingredients and textures, that can't be improved! (I would recommend using low-sodium soy because of the large amount in each serving.) I don't think I've used hoisin in a marinade before and it was outstanding (also used... — ~Jen~ Aug 4, 2009

Red, White and Blue Salad

Posted by Acadia  

Pears and blue cheese pair so well; this is a great use of the contest ingredients! I baked the walnuts in the toaster until they were extra toasted (almost, but not burned) and they were the hit ofthe salad. I took leftovers for lunch to work,... — ~Jen~ Jul 19, 2009

Pepperoni Pizza Pasta Salad

(1 person found this helpful) Posted by Elmotoo  

This is indeed a fun salad that reminds me of antipasto. I think the fat grams are way off since this could serve 10 and you can easily use half the amount of dressing and pepperoni, and increase the vinegar/oil ratio as suggested. The olive... — ~Jen~ Jul 14, 2009

Oops - my tomato bowls collapsed, but the surprise is that they became beautiful flowers! What a great presentation. Also, very delicious! The sweet marinated, baked tomato melts in your mouth and is a beautiful contrast to the "bite" of the... — ~Jen~ Jul 14, 2009

Fancy Shmancy Salad With Quail Eggs and Tarragon Dressing

Posted by Nif  

This was my favorite salad by far of those I tried for this contest. The lemony tarragon dressing is incredible and I've been craving it - will make for all kinds of salads. Note that some sick, elderly or pregnant people shouldn't eat raw egg.... — ~Jen~ Jul 14, 2009

Cornucopia Salad

Posted by Debbwl  

I love avocado, blue cheese and pear and the combination here is truly a horn 'o plenty. I used candied Whole Foods Orange Ginger almonds - yum. This is a salad to eat right after making it. A new favorite! — ~Jen~ Jul 11, 2009

Herbed Cheese Stuffed Salmon

Posted by Julie F  

Wow - the best salmon I've ever made! I look forward to trying to make this recipe a little healthier but it's absolutely delicious. I used macadamia nuts and baked for only 12 minutes in the toaster oven (way too hot in Florida to use the whole... — ~Jen~ Jul 5, 2009

Tangerine Tea Cakes

Posted by Maito  

Like a very moist almond pound cake with subtle tangerine flavor. My mini muffin pan must be bigger than your tart pan because I ended up with 24 fragrant tea cakes. The ones in muffin cups took 15 minutes to cook and without took 12 minutes. I... — ~Jen~ May 25, 2009

This sounds simple but the combo of ingredients makes it amazing - a must try, using the exact ingredients listed! The dressing with walnut oil and raspberry is outstanding. I'd recommend keeping it in a separate shaker if you can't eat all the... — ~Jen~ May 23, 2009

Caramel Oatmeal

Posted by Boomette  

Perfectly sweet using a 1 ounce box of instant pudding. I wouldn't eat this every day because of the chemicals in these boxed puddings, but good for a special treat or maybe for kids who you can't get to eat oatmeal. Chopped hazelnuts on top were... — ~Jen~ May 23, 2009

Choy Sum in Oyster Sauce

Posted by daisygrl64  

Easy and good - the oyster sauce works perfectly with this. Since this only takes a minute to cook, you can pre-blanch the broccoli rabe. Then when your Chinese stir fry is done, just wipe out the wok and this will be done in literally a minute.... — ~Jen~ Apr 29, 2009

Chinese Black Bean Sauce, Moosewood Style

(1 person found this helpful) Posted by Sharon123  

Dish-licking yummy! This is totally different from traditional black bean sauce I made in my Chinese cooking classes or the one I have posted (see Authentic Black Bean Chicken). It is much tangier due to the red wine vinegar, chili sauce and fresh lime juice. — ~Jen~ Apr 26, 2009
