Baked Oatmeal

(2 people found this helpful) Posted by keen5  

SOOOO good! I made some modifications based on preference and what I had on hand. I used vanilla rice milk instead of cow's milk (allergy); organic apple blackberry sauce; a teaspoon of cinnamon; 2 teaspoons of organic maple syrup; and only 1/3... — Lynne the Pirate Queen Nov 1, 2009

Grilled Cheese and Pear Sandwiches

Posted by Krsi Sue  

This was a perfect solution to the problem of what to make for dinner tonight. We made a few changes due to allergies and availability, using whole-grain wheat bread, Bartlett pear, and good quality feta cheese. It was simply amazing!! My fiance,... — Lynne the Pirate Queen Nov 1, 2009

Apple Sour Cream Cake

Posted by Kim127  

Simply spectacular! I used walnuts, and took the advice of some other reviewers and increased the amount of topping by 50%. I agree with others who noted that the apple flavor is not prominent, but frankly the overall cake is so good that it... — Lynne the Pirate Queen Oct 26, 2009

Curried Tofu Stir-Fry With Coconut Sauce

Posted by Primordial  

Stupendous! This was exactly what I was craving tonight. I made a few adjustments based on the veggies I had on hand and my preferred heat level (for example: I added some thinly sliced hot pepper), and had to make do with powdered ginger instead... — Lynne the Pirate Queen Oct 8, 2009

Greek Chicken Rice

(1 person found this helpful) Posted by katia  

I can't believe that I forgot to rate this! I made it for the first time months ago, and am about to make it again. It is SO good! I used boneless, skinless chicken breasts, and added some cloves of garlic. Like some others suggested, I used a bit... — Lynne the Pirate Queen Aug 23, 2009

Satin Skin Apple Mask and Scrub

Posted by gingerkitten D  

A very nice mask! I left out the chamomile because of an allergy, but otherwise made it as written. I was a little concerned about the lemon juice, thinking that it would be too harsh on my skin, but actually the finished product felt quite nice.... — Lynne the Pirate Queen Jul 31, 2009

Matcha Green Tea Cookies

Posted by Elspaghetti  

I love matcha in baked goods, and this is no exception. Although I don't think the matcha flavor comes through quite as strongly as I expected, these are still wonderful butter cookies — with a twist! Mine were done in only about 10 minutes,... — Lynne the Pirate Queen Jul 31, 2009

Matcha Green Sparkler

Posted by Pikake21  

This was tasty, but I actually liked it better after I adjusted the proportions. I thought the ginger ale flavor — and the sparkle factor it provides — were overpowered. I ended up drinking half of it, then adding more ginger ale to what was... — Lynne the Pirate Queen Jul 27, 2009

Green Apple Sparkler

Posted by dicentra  

I love morrocan mint green tea, and was happy to find a recipe that would let me enjoy it in a different way. That said, this is a nice recipe, but I felt that the tea was overpowered by the apple juice. I didn't taste the mint at all, so next... — Lynne the Pirate Queen Jul 27, 2009

Matcha Smoothie

Posted by Brenda.  

I absolutely adore this recipe! I made it probably 5 times within the first week of trying it. The only thing I do differently — besides using rice milk instead of regular dairy due to an allergy — is to increase the matcha to 1 and a half... — Lynne the Pirate Queen Jul 27, 2009

Avocado Green Tea Smoothie

Posted by Angela Kellis  

I love avocado and I love green tea, so I was thrilled to find this recipe. The end result, though, was not quite what I was expecting. The idea is great, but something about it was just a little "off" to my tastes. Maybe my matcha is not as... — Lynne the Pirate Queen Jul 27, 2009

Lomo Saltado, Peruvian Stir-Fry

Posted by Nasseh  

Wonderful flavor!! I used one jalapeno, seeded, and instead of rice vinegar used red white vinegar (all I had). We decided that there was enough starch from the potato, so we didn't bother putting it over rice. I'm sure that would be tasty,... — Lynne the Pirate Queen Apr 28, 2009

Kickin' Creamy Chicken Stew in a Slow Cooker

Posted by Annacia  

Simply wonderful! Great flavors, and super-easy to put together. I used half the amount of chicken and two cans of black beans, but otherwise made as directed. This was a huge hit with all of us. Thanks for sharing! — Lynne the Pirate Queen Apr 28, 2009

Cocoa Ginger Spice Muffins

Posted by Napoleon Dynamite  

Delightful muffins! The were a little smaller and didn't rise quite the way I expected, but they were heavenly nonetheless. I cut the recipe in half (there are only three people in my house), and used Hershey's dark cocoa, canola oil instead of... — Lynne the Pirate Queen Apr 24, 2009

Tirokafteri (Greek Feta Dip)

(1 person found this helpful) Posted by katia  

Easy and so good! We enjoyed this dip on veggies and crackers, and my roomie declared the flavor "fanstastic". I cut the recipe in half, since there are only three of us, but now I'm beginning to think I should have made more anyway. Using a... — Lynne the Pirate Queen Apr 24, 2009

Carrot Drop Cookies

(1 person found this helpful) Posted by katia  

FANTASTIC! I was pressed for time, so I took reviewer Color Caurd Mom's suggestion and made this into bar cookies (10"x15" pan, 20 minutes). They came out perfect! I haven't frosted them yet, just been diving into the plain bars... I can only... — Lynne the Pirate Queen Apr 24, 2009

"Sour Cream" Avocado Dip (vegan)

Posted by Napoleon Dynamite  

Clearly a very forgiving as well as tasty recipe... it was really good, in spite of (my) chef error. I accidentally picked up firm tofu instead of silken, so my dip was not nearly as smooth as it should have been. I also had to compensate for that... — Lynne the Pirate Queen Apr 17, 2009

Chocolate Maple Nut Bars

Posted by Napoleon Dynamite  

Easy to prepare, with a flavor that (I thought, anyway) improved the next day. My only problem was that the bake time was a little too long for my oven; the edges became quite carmelized and it was difficult to get many of the bars out of the pan.... — Lynne the Pirate Queen Apr 17, 2009

Far Breton Aux Pommes (Apple Pie)

(1 person found this helpful) Posted by katia  

This had great flavor, and was certainly easy to prepare, but I wish the directions were a bit clearer. I agree with Brenda... it's obvious that the flour needs to be measured by weight, not volume. I made the mistake of measuring by volume and... — Lynne the Pirate Queen Apr 17, 2009

Crispy Coconut Chicken With Mango Salsa

This was really nice, especially on this abnormally cold spring day in Chicago — it gave us a little taste of sunshine! I had to make a few adjustments, based on availability: I used canned/drained pineapple, frozen/thawed mango, green bell... — Lynne the Pirate Queen Apr 6, 2009
