Zucchini and Sumac Fritters With Tomato and Mint Salsa

Posted by bluemoon downunder  

I made these for a party a few weeks ago and they were an absolute hit. The vegetarians in our group couldn't stop noshing on these babies, but the meat eaters were also giving them a run for their money. I didn't serve them with yogurt, and... — Mirj Nov 16, 2009

Posted by SweetJezebel  

I made this for dessert for our 4th meal on Rosh Hashana and it was heavenly! I didn't make the raspberry sauce, instead I brushed some orange marmalade over the top. Also, I probably doubled the amount of poppy seeds, I've always been a little... — Mirj Sep 21, 2009

Simple Italian Sausage Pasta Sauce

Posted by VickyJ  

This was really good, really easy and really delicious! I can't easily get Italian sausage where I live, so I subbed some Moroccan merguez, which was probably best for me because I love my food so spicy your head spontaneously combusts. I served... — Mirj Aug 26, 2009

Meatless Spaghetti Pie

(1 person found this helpful) Posted by HEP MEP  

This was divine comfort food! I used all mozzarella cheese as my stepson has a tendency to get migraines from yellow cheese, so I left out the parmesan. I also used a local 5% fat cheese instead of the ricotta. Together with some homemade... — Mirj Jul 15, 2009

Green Bean and Potato Salad

Really simple yet delicious. I used all fresh herbs and instead of the pepper flakes just tossed in a chopped chili. The kids were not too fond of the olives and picked them out. Adults scarfed it down. Thanks for a recipe I can now play with. — Mirj Jun 4, 2009
