Five Star House Salad Dressing

Posted by Meghan  

So unusual! Perfect for a springtime salad with sweet ingredients, like berries and nuts. I was nervous before serving it, since it was quite sweet, but everyone really liked it and I ended up making more just to have on hand! — Laura Meehan May 8, 2009

Cranberry-Orange Relish

Posted by Ed Paulhus  

Ditto for me--I went to look at the bag for the recipe, and it was gone! Thanks for keeping it alive. I too only used 3/4 cup sugar for a bag of cranberries, though a bag is only 3 cups of berries anyway. — Laura Meehan Nov 25, 2008

Raisin Squares

Posted by justiceforall  

These were yummy! We really like molasses, pumpkin pie spices, etc., so these appealed to us. The recipe didn't specify when to add the sugar, so I added it at the same time as the egg. — Laura Meehan Nov 4, 2008

Easy Homemade Tortilla Chips

Posted by Darlene Summers  

Yummy! A good treat for those who can't eat wheat or gluten (and probably a host of other things, like dairy and eggs). — Laura Meehan Nov 4, 2008

Potato Squares

Posted by Bob Ross  

Very yummy! I followed the recommendation of putting cheese in the middle, though used a lighter cheese there and egg whites to lighten the recipe up a little. I stirred in some paprika, as suggested, and some sausage, and then it made four hearty... — Laura Meehan Jul 15, 2008

Quick Chicken Curry

Posted by IslandGirl  

I really liked some things about this recipe, and have some suggestions for others. First of all, I was confused by the 6 ounces of chicken making 4 servings. I could see that if there were lots of veggies or something to bulk the dish up, but as... — Laura Meehan Jul 13, 2008

Nigella Lawson Flourless Chocolate Orange Cake

Posted by Flowerfairy  

Excellent! I made this last night for a party. I am a celiac, and like when I can serve people meals that were gluten-free to begin with. The cake was surprisingly large--most flourless cakes are more dense, and the ground almonds gave it some... — Laura Meehan Jun 20, 2008

Easy Peanut Butter Cookies

Posted by Small-Town Cook  

I felt the same way--skeptical about the 3-ingredient issue. Then I realized, what's not to like? I am a celiac, and at the same time don't want to serve people food that will seem weird to them. The fact that this recipe never had any flour to... — Laura Meehan Jun 14, 2008

Hummus

(1 person found this helpful) Posted by Charishma Ramchandani  

I make this all the time--it's very easy, and better than store-bought. The only thing is I always halve the recipe, because the whole recipe makes tons! I often add a little dash of paprika as well, but not much. — Laura Meehan Feb 8, 2008

Dropped Date Filled Cookies

Posted by Mimi in Maine  

The first time I made this, I was highly disappointed, and would probably give it two stars for good taste but failed appearance. The second time, I did not add the water to the dough, and they actually looked like cookies instead of running all... — Laura Meehan Jan 6, 2008

Sauteed Swiss Chard

(2 people found this helpful) Posted by Bergy  

I don't think it is as strong as many other greens. I threw in a little turmeric and sea salt too, and it was very yummy. My husband (not a veggie-lover) and I both love it. — Laura Meehan Jan 2, 2008

Mini Cheesecakes

(1 person found this helpful) Posted by Jellyqueen  

I made these wheat- and gluten-free by using Mi-Del GF gingersnaps (added a nice zing). Instead of using pie filling, I warmed some currant jelly and spooned it over the top. Yum! Great party snacks, and yet portion-controlled. — Laura Meehan Jan 2, 2008

Chocolate Orange Fudge

Posted by Marg (CaymanDesigns)  

These are great for someone like me who can't have gluten! I used the peppermint extract, and they flew off the plate at a party I hosted. — Laura Meehan Dec 11, 2007

Black Eyed Peas With Herbs

(2 people found this helpful) Posted by justcallmetoni  

I discovered partway through the process that I had run out of multiple herbs, so I just cooked the peas as specified, and randomly kept throwing in herbs I had on hand: marjoram, coriander, garlic salt, etc. It was great. Mine was not spicy, but... — Laura Meehan Aug 22, 2007

Old Fashioned Blackberry Pie

Posted by Dreamgoddess  

I am a little confused by someone's comment that there was no thickening agent; maybe this recipe has since been edited. Cornstarch should work quite well, though if you want a thicker pie you can add more (but don't add too much unless you want a... — Laura Meehan Jul 13, 2007

Healthy Everybody Awesome Cake

(3 people found this helpful) Posted by D Rusak  

I'm so glad to see people taking "special needs eaters" into account, especially for yummy desserts! I am a celiac, and my friend is a celiac with a soy and corn allergy. I am also fairly calorie-conscious. Good job! — Laura Meehan Jul 7, 2007

One Bowl Gluten Free Chocolate Cake

(1 person found this helpful) Posted by Queen Bead  

I made cupcakes (12) from this, and they were lovely, moist, and fudgy. I baked them for 18 minute or so, at the recommended temperature. All of the neighbors lurked around when I brought them out and they went very quickly. I frosted them with... — Laura Meehan Jul 7, 2007

Collard Greens - It's Good for You!

Posted by ~Rita~  

I guess I just can't like collard greens. I tried! I am even a veggie-lover, but apparently not a collard greens one! Perhaps it is more of an acquired taste or something one must grow up with. — Laura Meehan Jul 1, 2007
