Chicken-Vegetable Udon

Posted by JESMom  

This was quite yummy! & easy! I also used sesame instead of canola oil, mirin instead of sake, & sesame seeds instead of cilantro. But the shiitakes were wonderful in this! Definitely will be a repeat around here. — Chandra M Oct 30, 2008

Barilla No-boil lasagna

Posted by Monica in PA  

I made a double recipe (one 9x13 for us, & 2 9x9s for a friend). I used 1/2 italian sausage & 1/2 hamburger for the meat & added one small bag of fresh spinach, chopped to the ricotta mix. I also ended up using 5 jars of sauce for a double... — Chandra M Oct 22, 2008

Southwestern Pork Soup (For Crock Pot)

Posted by HeatherFeather  

I have made this twice now (once while camping). It is very good. I like the way the flavors meld together. A wonderful hearty dinner. I did not use a crock pot, however. I browned the pork in a little bit of oil, then throw everything in &... — Chandra M Oct 22, 2008

Spicy Pork Bulgogi

Posted by J e l i s a  

This was excellent! Exactly what we were looking for. I think that this is better than any pork bulgogi we have had out. Spicy, but not overpowering. I made a doubled everything (except the yellow onion) and it turned out great. I thought we... — Chandra M Oct 20, 2008

Garlic Scape Soup

Posted by Sonata  

Wow! I had never used scapes before, but got them in my CSA share, so tried this soup. Super Yummy! I made a couple of changes for what I had on hand: used a vidalia onion, oregano instead of thyme, 1/2 & 1/2 instead of cream, and 4 cups broth... — Chandra M Jun 5, 2008

Herb Cheese Boneless Leg of Lamb

(1 person found this helpful) Posted by Morrison  

We had this last night for dinner and it was great. The cheese melts into the meat and makes it very moist and flavorful. Next time I will pound it a little thinner though, as I want the cheesy goodness to soak into every bite! — Chandra M May 4, 2008

Twice Baked Potatoes in a Muffin Pan

(2 people found this helpful) Posted by Morrison  

This is so much easier than trying to stuff everything back in the shell! I used all of the skins, as that is my favorite part (chopped as noted). Another great idea that is a twist! I'll be making these for my next big crowd (I only made... — Chandra M May 1, 2008

Grilled Italian Meatballs

I never would have thought to grill meatballs. These were excellent, though. The grilling added a nice smoky flavor that gave them that 'little bit extra'. Thanks for sharing! — Chandra M May 1, 2008

Roast Turkey Breast With Rosemary and Garlic

Posted by Gloria 15x  

This was very good. I followed Debber's recommendation and used about double rosemary. This was very tasty and juicy, even though I forgot to baste. I can't wait to have the leftovers for lunch! — Chandra M Apr 30, 2008

Carrots Piedmontese

I really like the tangy flavor that the balsamic gives to the carrots. I also used scallions instead of chives, as that is what I had on hand. — Chandra M Apr 14, 2008

This was fantastic! This is going on the weeknight dinner repeat list, although it is pretty enough to serve to guests. I love the way the orange and dijon complement the cranberries. The sauce was wonderful! Thanks for a great recipe! — Chandra M Apr 14, 2008

Wilted Spinach with Orange & Ginger

Posted by Kimke  

This was excellent! And easy! I might crush the ginger & garlic into a paste next time, as my mincing skills were not up to par for this. Great way to liven up spinach (even my DH ate it). — Chandra M Apr 14, 2008

East African Curried Chicken Soup

This was HOT! But the flavor was wonderful. I was a little skeptical about the banana, as I don't usually like them, but it was a wonderful addition. I used Masala Meusi for the curry powder, but did not have peri-peri, so I had to use... — Chandra M Apr 14, 2008

Masala Meusi

(2 people found this helpful) Posted by Simba7  

This makes a great spice mix. I used in East African Curried Chicken Soup. I could not find peri peri, so I substituted a very hot cayenne. It has a very piquant aroma when sauteed. — Chandra M Apr 8, 2008

Oatmeal BlueBerry Bread

(1 person found this helpful) Posted by Ocean~Ivy  

This is a lovely bread. It was especially good warm with farm fresh butter. The crust was nice and crisp, with a hint of cinnamon. We like our bread a little chewy, so I used 1/2 bread flour and 1/2 all purpose. I also used old fashioned oats,... — Chandra M Apr 7, 2008
