Minestrone

Posted by Joy Boss  

25 reviews and no photos?! Sad... I'll fix that. Excellent recipe! I doubled the kidney beans and tomatoes. Added a little extra wine. Didn't have celery, so I increased the amount of carrots. Ommitted the garbanzoes and spinach. Added fresh... — dicentra Sep 20, 2009

Ginger-Pear Butter

Posted by ratherbeswimmin'  

This is excellent! I had an entire tree's worth of pears to harvest so I was on the hunt for recipes. This is a great one. I doubled the recipe. I think either my pears were too wet or I added too much water b/c the final result was more like a... — dicentra Sep 15, 2009

Butternut Squash and Pear Soup

Posted by Vino Girl  

This is excellent! I more or less doubled the recipe, using a whole butternut squash. I had a ton of pears to use up, which is sort of how I found this one to begin with. I used my lemon curry powder, which is a bit lighter in flavor. Perfect.... — dicentra Sep 15, 2009

Pear Zucchini Bread

Posted by Celeste :)  

Excellent! I had an overload of pears and my neighbor had given me some zucchini, so this recipe was perfect. I used 3 smaller loaf pans. Lovely moist loaves. — dicentra Sep 15, 2009

Perfect!! Just the sort of tater salad hubby likes. I think I added more than 3 eggs, but I like it like that. Simple and tasty. — dicentra Jun 1, 2009

Tuna Burgers

Posted by alyseepoo  

What a great pantry meal!! I will be making these again. The only think I would change is to use less milk. My patties were a little wet and I was squeezing out liquid as I made them. I served them with Dill Sauce and sauteed zucchini spears.... — dicentra Dec 9, 2008

Parmesan Zucchini Spears

Posted by A Messy Cook  

Very easy to make and delicious! I didn't have lemons, so I used lemon pepper. These are even good without the cheese. I agree, I need to try this on the grill next summer. Thanks for sharing a great recipe. — dicentra Dec 9, 2008

Peach Glazed Pork Chops (Oamc)

Posted by justcallmetoni  

I thought this was very good! Hubby wasn't too sure. I used frozen peaches and cooked everything in one dish. The pork was especially yummy if you ate it WITH the peaches on the same fork. I even made a yogurt parfait with the leftover peaches... — dicentra Dec 8, 2008

Rice Pilaf

(1 person found this helpful) Posted by Gloria  

Totally easy and really good. I omitted the beef base, but otherwise followed the recipe. I used pre-shredded carrots instead of diced. The little ribbons throughout the rice was very pretty. Great simple recipe! Thanks. — dicentra Dec 8, 2008

Cinnamon Applesauce Pancakes

(1 person found this helpful) Posted by Charmie777  

These are very good. I didn't have cinnamon applesauce, just plain, so I upped the amount of cinnamon. They are very soft and tender pancakes. I think they are even better the second day. I might add just a bit more pancake mix next time I make... — dicentra Dec 8, 2008

Toblerone Cream Cheese Muffins

Posted by Julesong  

These didn't turn out quite as nice as I expected. The muffins themselves were a little heavy. My fault for overbeating the battter? The filling tasted fantastic, but was not very thicky. Hubby ate several - he liked them more than I did. Sorry! — dicentra Dec 8, 2008

Martini

Posted by ratherbeswimmin'  

Excellent. Just as a martini should be. No fancy stuff. I keep my vodka in the freezer and my vermouth in the fridge, so our drinks were icy cold. Shaken long and hard. Garnished with plenty of olives which are even better after they've sat in the... — dicentra Dec 2, 2008

Fresh Cherry Pie

Posted by Theresa/ Thunderbird  

Mine didn't set up either. I think it needs some corn starch in there to help it along. It was still a hit though. Made for Thanksgiving 2008. — dicentra Dec 2, 2008
