Black Bean Soup

(1 person found this helpful) Posted by Wendy Gerhard  

Excellent soup! I made a few additions for flavor and personal preference: I added three chipotle chiles in adobo sauce along with some adobo sauce into the recipe and four garlic cloves (I got the idea from Black Beans in Chipotle Adobo Sauce - Black Beans in... — ZJDad Feb 15, 2009

Funny Cake

Posted by Tasty Tidbits  

This recipe turned out very well. It was the best funny cake I've had. They tend to be kind of dry in general, and this one was moist. When it was still warm, and the chocolate was warmer than the cake portion, it was exceptional. Thanks for... — ZJDad Feb 14, 2009

Dark Chocolate Cake

Posted by Marg (CaymanDesigns)  

My family loved this cake, my son going so far as to call me "the best cook ever". I made a lower-fat, lower-calorie version of this recipe by substituting splenda for baking (the one w/ half sugar/half splenda) for the sugar, egg beaters for the... — ZJDad Jan 11, 2009

Frizzled Cabbage

(1 person found this helpful) Posted by Boxerwing  

Excellent recipe! I never expected it to taste so sweet despite all the reviews saying so. We could have eaten many servings of this! I made it with light butter and grated the cabbage with one carrot. — ZJDad Sep 7, 2007

Weight Watchers General Tso's Chicken

Excellent recipe! I was a bit concerned, having never successfully made Chinese food before, but this was easy. I will cut down the ginger a touch next time, and I added extra garlic. I reduced the amount of chicken a bit, and added broccoli in... — ZJDad Jan 7, 2007

Graham Cracker Crust

(3 people found this helpful) Posted by MommyMakes  

I've used this crust many times to make Libby's Famous Pumpkin Pie (Libby's Famous Pumpkin Pie). My recommendation with that recipe is not to cook the crust before filling it. I've found that the pie crust tends to burn at... — ZJDad Oct 22, 2006

Brown Rice and Chicken

Posted by Aroostook  

This recipe is great, in that it's easy, quick, and consists entirely of staples I tend to always keep in the house. I was nervous at first about the mayonnaise, but I used it as written and it turned out well (although I used fat-free mayo as a... — ZJDad Oct 15, 2006

Black Bean and Chocolate Chili

(1 person found this helpful) Posted by Kozmic Blues  

This chili was amazing. I kept waiting to find out when I'd be putting it into a large pot, and it wasn't until I had followed all the steps when I realized that it was entirely made in a single skillet! I was actively involved in the cooking... — ZJDad Oct 15, 2006

Zucchini and Corn

Posted by Tebo  

Easy to make, everyone liked it. I peeled the zucchini, which I think makes it a bit softer and gives it a more mild taste. Great recipe, I will definitely make it again. — ZJDad Mar 18, 2006
