Red Vegetarian Stew

Posted by 10in10Diet.com  

Not rating, because I made too many changes, but if you're on the fence, try this recipe! The fresh beets at the grocery store were sad, so I got a can of beets, which turned out to be severely dented, and hissed (eek!) when I started to open... — Podkayne Nov 16, 2009

Zucchini Brownies

Posted by tehparrot  

These don't have the chewiness and richness of a brownie, but then again, they don't have the fat and calories, either! They deserve a good solid four stars for taste, but I give them five stars for being a healthier treat a good way to use up... — Podkayne Aug 12, 2009

Sourdough Pancakes #2

(1 person found this helpful) Posted by UnknownChef86  

Really good! I love the tender texture. I cut the sugar (I prefer lots of maple syrup on top) and the salt by half. A great excuse to revive "the critter" (our sourdough starter). — Podkayne Jul 11, 2009

Irish Soda Bread in a Cast Iron Skillet

(1 person found this helpful) Posted by Cookgirl  

I loves me some soda bread! I used this to inaugurate my new cast-iron pot. I used half whole-wheat flour and half white flour, and it worked fine. It was plenty sweet for us—I wouldn't add more sugar, and might even use less next time. — Podkayne May 19, 2009

Tofu, Kale, and Raisins

Posted by That is Dr House to you  

I liked this a lot. I used turnip greens and golden raisins, and marinated the tofu in pomegranate juice (and a little honey, because the juice was pretty tart.) Oh, and I used a little grapeseed oil to brown the tofu and plump the raisins. The... — Podkayne Apr 8, 2009

Chochoyones in Black Bean Soup

Posted by SweetJezebel  

This soup is nice—tasty and different. It was a little thinner than I'd prefer for black bean soup, but that might be necessary for the dumplings to cook well. I thought the dumplings would thicken the broth up a bit, but they didn't really,... — Podkayne Apr 7, 2009

Pear Cardamom Bread

Posted by chia  

My husband and I liked this recipe, and it was a good way to use up some crazy over-ripe pears we had. The taste of the bread is sweet and moist and straightforward. A good recipe for fans of cardamom. — Podkayne Jan 6, 2009

Ginger and Poppy Seed Cookies

Posted by Chefella  

Crispy and mild-tasting. The poppy seeds add interesting texture and flavor, and a surprising heartiness. A few of my cookies ended up with a small hole where the dough, melted and ran, and the cookie got overbrowned. Maybe I should have... — Podkayne Dec 25, 2008

Chocolate Crinkle Cookies

Posted by cookiebaker  

"Clouds of love" is the right way to put it. These cookies are chocolaty, but surprisingly light—they melt in your mouth! I had to bake mine around 16 minutes. I didn't have a cookie scoop, so I just eyeballed 2 Tbsp with a regular spoon.... — Podkayne Dec 25, 2008

Dijon Pork Roast With Cranberries (Crock Pot)

Good stuff. Easy, yet sophisticated. The classic formula holds true: pork+fruit+crockpot=full of win. — Podkayne Dec 24, 2008

Cheese Souffle

Posted by blgpts  

Very delicious! A little extra effort, but well worth it. I used a mixture of swiss and cojack cheese. I made mine in 4 twelve-ounce ramekins, and they only took 1 hour to cook through. I also chickened out and buttered my ramekins, and dusted... — Podkayne Dec 24, 2008

Dutch Baby

Posted by sugarpea  

A wonderful mix of textures: tender in the center, crispy and melt-away delicious at the outer edges. The recipe makes a rather sweet pancake even without the confectioner's sugar, so next time I'll either serve it with plain sliced fruit, as... — Podkayne Sep 23, 2008

Jiffy Corn Muffins Mix Clone

(5 people found this helpful) Posted by Antilope  

Good muffins, although not exactly like the box mix. They aren't quite as sweet as the original, which disappointed my husband, but I preferred. The ingredients are things I keep on hand, so I don't have to remember to buy anything at the... — Podkayne Jul 22, 2008

Mom's French Dressing

Posted by SilentCricket  

Love this stuff. It's much better than french dressing from a bottle. The first time I made it, I had no trouble at all, but this time, for some reason it just would NOT come together and emulsify. The only thing I did differently was use... — Podkayne Jun 4, 2008

Oatmeal Chocolate Chip Cookies II

Posted by JANIC412  

Delicious and not too fussy to make. I used salted butter and left out the 1/2 tsp salt, and substituted raisins for the walnuts. The cinnamon taste is great! — Podkayne May 9, 2008

Corn Latkes

Posted by justcallmetoni  

Wow, did these stick to the baking sheet for me. Maybe I should have used more oil. A good recipe anyway. I was looking for something to satisfy our craving for the "corn nuggets" we used to get at a pizza place that's now closed... They aren't... — Podkayne Jan 12, 2008

Double Chocolate Scones

Posted by tweetyfan  

As scones go, these are very eggy and bready. I was hoping for more of an orange flavor, but they're certainly fine as is. And boy, as Charlotte J said, they sure do puff up in the oven. I didn't find the dough sticky, though; the amount of... — Podkayne Jan 9, 2008

Gingerbread Scones

Posted by the6-sranch  

The intense flavor makes these very satisfying. They definitely satisfied my gingerbread jones! A good texture, with a crunchy/crumbly crust and a moist interior. And pretty easy to make, as advertised! I ran a little short of molasses, so I... — Podkayne Jan 2, 2008

Basic Waffle

(3 people found this helpful) Posted by TheDiva1959  

Indeed, a very good basic waffle. The beaten egg whites give a nice fluffy batter to fill even a Belgian-style waffle machine, and it makes a good, crisp waffle. — Podkayne Dec 28, 2007
