Posted by Pèllerin  

Delicious! The balsamic vinegar adds an unusual and yummy touch to this otherwise fairly standard Asian marinade. — Jim C. Sep 6, 2009

Lemon Pepper & Mustard Baked Ahi / Mahi Mahi / Salmon

Posted by gloomybear  

We loved this, even with frozen mahi-mahi from Trader Joe's. I used maple syrup rather than honey--a little less than suggested here (just our taste)--and it was delicious! Also I didn't have scallions, so I substituted toasted slivered almonds... — Jim C. Sep 6, 2009

Chicken-Penne Salad with Green Beans

Posted by sydsmama  

A delicious summer meal, and a great template for improvising. I just made it with chicken sausage and without the pasta, since we had half a baguette from the night before--both good variations. — Jim C. Aug 19, 2009

Salmon w/ roasted Asparagus & Lemon-Caper Sauce

Posted by Sue Freeman  

A delicious and easy dish, but elegant enough for company! Just about any light sauce would be good...including something taking it in an Asian direction. — Jim C. May 10, 2009

Slow Cooked Italian Stew (Crock Pot)

(1 person found this helpful) Posted by justcallmetoni  

Excellent! The herb amounts looked skimpy to me, so I used about a tablespoon of Italian seasoning & was glad that I did. Also, next time I'll try omitting the chicken broth, since there was a lot of extra liquid. A great keeper--thanks! — Jim C. Mar 23, 2009

Sour Cream and Ground Beef Layered Casserole

(1 person found this helpful) Posted by KITTENCAL  

We love this and have it often--but the prep time is unrealistic. Chopping the onions and mincing the garlic needs to be counted, and so does browning the meat, shredding the cheese, etc. I find that even if I cook the pasta while the meat mixture... — Jim C. Feb 27, 2009

shrimp & scallop ziti

(1 person found this helpful) Posted by chia  

Delicious! I omitted the hot water, which I think would make the sauce too runny--it was perfect without it. And yes, I put the cooked pasta into the baking dish with the sauce. — Jim C. Feb 16, 2009

Teresa's Stuffed Flounder

(1 person found this helpful) Posted by TGirl,RN  

We loved this, but I was surprised to find it just a little bit dry--some reviewers complained that it was soggy! Maybe a lot depends on the fish you use. I see that BoxO'Wine poured butter over it...next time I might pour over a combination of... — Jim C. Jan 27, 2009

Fillet Almondine

(1 person found this helpful) Posted by Kendra*  

Delicious! This is a keeper for sure. There's a lot of yummy gravy left, so do consider serving it with mashed potatoes or rice. I used straight mushroom soup for a non-dairy version, which is also great a way to make it a lighter dish. — Jim C. Nov 16, 2008

Excellent!! Believe it or not, a light non-dairy version, using ground chicken and soy sour cream & cheese, was delicious too! — Jim C. Oct 19, 2008

Haddock With Fresh Summer Vegetables

(1 person found this helpful) Posted by Baby Kato  

This is a delicious dish, and it makes a lovely presentation IF you use a nice firm fish. (The first time I made it I used cod, which the guy at the fish counter said was "the same as haddock"--well, it was tasty all right, but it completely fell... — Jim C. Oct 12, 2008

Orecchiette With Spicy Sausage and Broccoli Rabe

This is insanely good. Heard almost weekly at our house: "Are you tired of that broccoli rabe dish?" "Are you kidding?!?" It's also versatile: use any pasta you like, including tortellini, saute sliced mushrooms along with the garlic, add white... — Jim C. Jul 20, 2008

Excellent! I made a lowfat version with light swiss cheese and condensed skim milk instead of cream, and it was still superb. My coworkers were all jealous when they smelled it reheated the next day! — Jim C. Apr 5, 2008

Fantastic Taco Casserole

(1 person found this helpful) Posted by Leilani  

What a find! This is almost infinitely variable--you can add sauteed onions, go for sharp cheddar, substitute ground turkey for a lighter version or sauteed veggies for a vegetarian version, etc. This is going to become a regular at our house. And... — Jim C. Apr 1, 2007
