Oatmeal Cottage Cheese Pancakes

Posted by bramble  

These were good considering the health factor, but otherwise, I don't think I'd make them again. The vanilla taste was a bit too dominant; might do something to change that if I try them again. EDIT: Also, these were -very- filling for such small... — Shelby, the wannabe chef Jan 31, 2007

Tofu Fajitas

(2 people found this helpful) Posted by ~Rita~  

YUM. Delightful. =)Used plain baked tofu; still tastes great. Oh wait, I added some chili powder too, which I only recommend if you really like hot stuff like I do. Thanks for the recipe, which I'll be sure to make again. =) — Shelby, the wannabe chef Jan 30, 2007

Pesto Tortellini

Posted by mandabears  

I loved it; this is definitely going to be a make-again recipe. I will change one thing though; I thought the 2/3 cup of olive oil was FAR too much. Please note however that I am not one for fatty foods. I will definitely make this with 1/2 cup... — Shelby, the wannabe chef Jan 26, 2007

Tofu Stuffed Bell Peppers

Posted by Cynna  

It was pretty good, but it lacked a distinct flavor to make it a favorite. — Shelby, the wannabe chef Jan 24, 2007

Turkey Black Bean Chili

(4 people found this helpful) Posted by CountryLady  

This is great, even without added salt or cheddar cheese. A keeper. However, I do not reccomend freezing it- it comes out all liquidy. — Shelby, the wannabe chef Mar 20, 2006

Spinach-Garlic-Edamame Hummus

(2 people found this helpful) Posted by spatchcock  

I thought this was going to be good. I was wrong. It was great! Heh, I will use less garlic next time though :] I left out all the salt, and used about 2.5 teaspoons of red pepper flakes; I might use a little more than that next time. Whoa, now... — Shelby, the wannabe chef Mar 1, 2006

Blueberry Muffins With Almond Streusel

Posted by Simply Chris  

Me being the idiot I am, I completely forgot I had neither fresh blueberries nor almonds. I left out streusel topping, used all whole-wheat flour, and frozen blueberries. I think this is probably gonna be the basic muffin recipe I use, with things... — Shelby, the wannabe chef Feb 24, 2006

Ww Crock Pot Vegetables and Brown Rice

Posted by Shirl (J) 831  

I'm sorry, this just really didn't suit my tastes. I have, however, never tried curry before, so I think that's the problem. — Shelby, the wannabe chef Feb 16, 2006

Southwestern Skillet Corn

Posted by ratherbeswimmin'  

Review based on my changes, obviously. This was pretty good, but not amazing. I left out all salt, so it would probably be a lot better with salt. This recipe makes about 4 and a half cups. Ok, next time, I will cut the cherry tomatoes smaller... — Shelby, the wannabe chef Feb 15, 2006

Bean Vegetable Medley

(1 person found this helpful) Posted by ~Rita~  

I wavered between 5 stars and 4 stars, but finally chose 5. Anyways, I made some changes to this- left out all added salt, and didn't use canned foods. I also used water instead of oil. I didn't chop with cheese, and this was still pretty dang... — Shelby, the wannabe chef Feb 14, 2006

Lentil Soup

(2 people found this helpful) Posted by mermaidmagic  

Again, pretty good for a basic lentil soup. I think next time I might add some spices, (Basil? Thyme? Oregano?) but otherwise this was a very good easy recipe. — Shelby, the wannabe chef Jan 28, 2006

The Best Caramel Brownies

Posted by DiAnna2  

I didn't taste these, (can't eat sugar) but I did make them and listen to other people's comments. The only hard part was the very beginning, spreading half the cake mix on the pan. I finally got so frustrated that I sprayed a piece of parchment... — Shelby, the wannabe chef Dec 25, 2005

Best Ever Buckeyes

Posted by Jo  

I didn't taste these, (can't eat sugar) but I did make these and listened to other people's comments. Ok, once again, the dough does look pretty dry upon mixing, by is pretty easy to roll into a ball. I used about 2 tablespoons of crisco, and... — Shelby, the wannabe chef Dec 25, 2005

Whole-Wheat Bread Hayes

My first time ever to bake a yeast item- and I'm glad I did! This bread it pretty good by itself, but it is a hundred-percent absolutely AMAZING when toasted with peanut butter.Anyways, substitutions- I completely left out sugar, (still tasted... — Shelby, the wannabe chef Dec 4, 2005

Shredded Zucchini

(2 people found this helpful) Posted by Mrs.Habu  

First off, let me just say that I really dislike zucchini. I decided to make this for me when I noticed I had a zucchini lying around- and it was WONDERFUL!!! I didn't even used dill as I didn't have any, and I used reduced fat feta cheese. I... — Shelby, the wannabe chef Nov 30, 2005

Black Forest Pie

Posted by RéeLani  

At last minute, I decided I was bored of cherry pie, and looked for another recipe that used the cherry pie filling I had on hand. Anyways, the bottom layer of chocolate and cherries was pretty good, (That would have been rated a 4.) but no one... — Shelby, the wannabe chef Nov 26, 2005

Cream of Carrot Soup

(1 person found this helpful) Posted by HeatherFeather  

I absolutely loved this recipe the first time I tried it- I think I ate about half the first day I made it. However, I've made it twice since then, and, though the first time was a 5, I have to rate it a 4. However, I also made changes- I used... — Shelby, the wannabe chef Nov 23, 2005

Granola

Posted by NHNichole  

I'm sorry about the previous review; I recently read it and I guess it was a bit rude. After reading Marg's review, I've decided I must have messsed up somewhere... so eventually, I will be making this recipe again. — Shelby, the wannabe chef Nov 15, 2005

Spanakopita (Greek Spinach Pie)

(2 people found this helpful) Posted by evelyn/athens  

For those who don't know, phyllo pastry sheets look almost like paper, except a little thinner- and it tears about a hundred times easier. Though reviewers told me not to, I had never worked with phyllo dough and wanted to make this recipe for a... — Shelby, the wannabe chef Nov 15, 2005
