Ruth's Chris Steak House Creamed Spinach

Posted by yooper  

This was great! I steamed my spinach and then added ice cubes to chill it down. I also hand chopped on a cutting board after drying. Came out perfect. Thanx! — NVirginian Nov 2, 2009

Vegetarian Tortilla Soup

Posted by spatchcock  

This was great! I had to use a can of fire roasted tomatoes instead of fresh and it still came out great. I think the zucchini was a little more than a cup because I used a whole small one. I will make this often. Thanx! — NVirginian Jul 12, 2009

Razzle, I have made this twice now and forgot to review it! This is so awesome that I find myself craving it sometimes. The first time I made it I didn't have the garnishes and it was still great but the garnishes really make it! Thanx for posting!!! — NVirginian Jan 1, 2009

Creole Chops

I loved this recipe! Not only was it quick but tasty as well. I made it as directed but added more hot sauce (Cajun Sunshine) to my own. My daughter doesn't like her food spicy but we're working on that. I wish I had cooked the chops a little less... — NVirginian Oct 5, 2008

(Panera Bread) Black Bean Soup

Posted by najwa  

This was terrific! I used 1 lb dried black beans that had been soaking and then cooked until almost tender. I didn't finely chop the veggies and only pureed some of them. I added 2 tablespoons of apple cider vinegar towards the end. Loved it! — NVirginian Apr 20, 2008

We all loved this! The only thing I really did different was use diced fire roasted tomatoes instead of crushed. It made the sauce thinner than I was looking for but it was still packed with flavor. We added more parmesan cheese at the table and... — NVirginian Oct 12, 2007
