Kumara Pie

Posted by Pikake21  

I had been planning on giving this recipe only 3 stars because, despite following the directions to a T, the filling came out dry and cracked. Then, I read the blurb about the recipe and realised that Pikake21 mentions that you might need milk to... — KrabKokonas Feb 23, 2008

Wheat Germ Muffins

Posted by mj Sergent  

These are good but very heavy muffins. I wasn't expecting them to be so dense... two is plenty to feel full at breakfast time. When I make these again (because I will!), I will cut down the amount of butter as I thought it was a bit much. I... — KrabKokonas Feb 22, 2008

**I made this cake in honour of Chef-I-am for her bake-a-thon.** This is the cake that is made for all special events at our house. It's really important to follow the directions to the T - time consuming but worth it. This cake only gets better... — KrabKokonas Oct 28, 2007

Hummus

Posted by Semra22  

Yum yum and yum! Tahini is impossible to find where I am and the sesame oil gave this that sesame flavor that I often miss so much. I cut out the cilantro and the cayenne and I'm a hummus "purist" and like it just with lemon, garlic and olive... — KrabKokonas Sep 29, 2007

Banana Cake

(5 people found this helpful) Posted by Evie*  

Easy peasy is right! This really did only take 10 minutes prep and was an excellent way to use up my over-ripe bananas. I used 5 bananas and the cake came out beautifully. This allowed me to cut the butter down to only 100g (1/2 cup) and still... — KrabKokonas Sep 19, 2007

Chicken Liver Pate'

Posted by papergoddess  

This is an extremely easy and yummy way to make pate. I didn't have cognac on hand to add, and it was still fantastic. I cut down the butter a bit, but not too much as it added a lovely creaminess to the mixture. I tasted the pate when it was... — KrabKokonas Aug 13, 2007

Beetroot and Walnut Dip

Posted by katew  

A beautiful, original dip. I love the combination of beetroot and yoghurt. The next time I make this, I'll add even more yoghurt and skip the nuts. I added garlic per Leggy Peggy's suggestion and it was delicious. Thanks, katew for a great... — KrabKokonas Jul 26, 2007

Glazed Rio Star Grapefruit Poppy Seed Cake

(2 people found this helpful) Posted by RéeLani  

I followed the directions exactly as written and it made one GREAT cake! I will definitely be making this again very soon. A couple of minor comments: There was very little grapefruit taste to the cake itself. The poppy seed taste, however, was... — KrabKokonas Jul 24, 2007

Wheat Germ Picnic Cake

(1 person found this helpful) Posted by A. Jo  

Yum! This cake is moist and full of flavor. I reduced the oil to a half a cup and added a bit more pineapple juice for more moisture and the cake came out great. It doesn't taste "healthy" at all. Thanks, A.Jo. — KrabKokonas Jul 18, 2007

Low-Fat Salmon Pasta Salad

I'm trying to eat more grains, so I made this with whole wheat pasta.. and my was it good! Even the DH, a confirmed white carb addict, loved it! I recommend buying the highest quality canned salmon you can find as the cheap stuff tastes just like... — KrabKokonas Jul 18, 2007

Cold Dill Pea Salad

Posted by BecR  

This is a very attractive, original side dish! I used whipped cottage cheese as a low-fat substitute for sour cream which worked out quite nicely. I replaced the chives with red onions - which worked out less nicely. Indeed, I remade this with... — KrabKokonas Jul 18, 2007

Chickpea Salad

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

A very simple, tasty recipe - and colourful too! However, I found the 1/2 cup olive oil to be quite overwhelming. I think that 3-4 tablespoons would be more than enough. — KrabKokonas Jul 8, 2007

Lunch in a Loaf

(2 people found this helpful) Posted by HerbofGrace  

This is a lovely idea for an OAMC lunch. I made a triple batch of this and paired it with several good Zaar recipes for fillings. I have written this all down in the OAMC Forum in the topic OAMC Plans which is stickied to the top of the page. — KrabKokonas Jul 8, 2007

Oriental Mini Meatloaves With Honey Garlic Sauce

Posted by * Pamela *  

I made these as part of my OAMC Lunchbox plan. I knew that something with 26 five star ratings must be good, but darn are these GOOD! I used ground beef instead of chicken and they still turned out wonderfully. The low-sodium broth is important... — KrabKokonas Jul 5, 2007

Eggplant (Aubergine) Antipasto

I made this last week as part of my OAMC Lunchbox plan and promptly froze every last bit of it. Making it was INCREDIBLY easy - just toss everything in a pot and let simmer. I had an inkling that it would be good because it smelled wonderful while... — KrabKokonas Jul 5, 2007

Tony’s Pizza Dough

Posted by ratherbeswimmin'  

My mother, who is from Phoenix, sent me this recipe cut from a "Sunset" magazine about three years ago. I have been using it ever since and LOVE it. I don't have a bread machine or bread hooks for my mixer, so I do it all by hand and it still... — KrabKokonas Jul 3, 2007

Copycat Cinnabon Rolls With Icing

(1 person found this helpful) Posted by Lennie  

These are fantastic! I had previously tried another recipe ( Cinnabon Cinnamon Rolls ) purporting to be the real thing... but these are EVEN BETTER than the other ones! The addition of the vanilla pudding to the rolls makes all the difference. Beware that... — KrabKokonas Jun 24, 2007

Candied Orange (Or Grapefruit or Lemon) Peels

(6 people found this helpful) Posted by Sarah Chana  

These are just what they say they are - candied grapefruit (in my case) peels. I must say that these are a LOT of work for a little treat and if I were to make these again, I'll go that extra mile to chocolate coat them because 30 more minutes in... — KrabKokonas Jun 18, 2007

Pink Grapefruit Marmalade

(4 people found this helpful) Posted by cooledskin  

I must start out by saying that this was the easiest marmalade that I have ever made - and probably some of the tastiest! I never realized that it was possible to cut out so much prep time by just boiling the fruit peel and all. I'm definitely... — KrabKokonas Jun 17, 2007
