Red Cabbage and Carrot Salad

(1 person found this helpful) Posted by Nye McClelland  

This is a lovely salad, tart and refreshing. I was a bit generous with the raisins, which supply a required note of sweetness. However, be aware that I also only made one-third of the recipe, and as far as I am concerned, that made 4 to 6... — Jenny Sanders Apr 25, 2005

Chicken, Rice and Cabbage Soup

(3 people found this helpful) Posted by Molly53  

Nice soup! The lemon is subtle but keeps it lively. I started with raw chicken and cooked rice, so I sautéed the chicken briefly with the onion, and added the rice at the end. Quick, simple and satisfying. — Jenny Sanders Apr 19, 2005

A Plaything for Your Tongue

(1 person found this helpful) Posted by Mini R.  

'Ware! HOT! But absolutely delicious. I'll be making this again... it's beautifully simple and oh, so good. I did replace half the red chili with curry powder, and next time I would probably cut it in half again. I'm already looking forward to it... — Jenny Sanders Apr 18, 2005

Tofu Maki (Vegetarian Sushi)

(2 people found this helpful) Posted by rsarahl  

These were delightful! I used brown (sushi) rice, and some lovely chewy, dense tofu. I did add a little sugar and vinegar to the rice when it was still warm. However, these are very easy to make and extremely pretty and tasty. — Jenny Sanders Apr 17, 2005

Green Beans with Peanut Dressing

Posted by JustJanS  

Mmm, nice. I used cashew butter, since I can't eat peanuts, and the results were great — a very rich creamy dressing that complemented the green beans perfectly. — Jenny Sanders Apr 16, 2005

Barley Albondigas (Meatball) Soup

(3 people found this helpful) Posted by Molly53  

Very nice, simple tasty soup. I would have liked a little more cumin, but that's a minor adjustment. I did cook the barley in advance, it made putting the soup together very quick. A perfect warm-you-up for a blustery Spring (?) day. — Jenny Sanders Apr 14, 2005

Guatemalan Chicken with Pineapple (Pollo en Pina)

(2 people found this helpful) Posted by winkki  

I simplified this a bit, by using skinless, boneless chicken thighs, which reduced the cooking time. I also cut the recipe in half, except for the onion and garlic, and probably the tomatoes - I just put in some tinned ones, since it isn't exactly... — Jenny Sanders Apr 5, 2005

Braised Belgian Endive

(1 person found this helpful) Posted by Bergy  

This is a very nice way to serve endive. Mine were fairly large, so I ended up cooking them just a couple minutes longer. I also added extra broth, along with dried shiitake and fresh button mushrooms. Great winter veggie. — Jenny Sanders Mar 31, 2005

Jane Street Chicken

(2 people found this helpful) Posted by Dean Kunigisky  

Nice combination! the soy and lemon makes it lighter and sharper than most honey-mustard sauces. I was skimpy with the curry powder, and wished I had been a bit skimpier yet - I think it was a pretty nippy brand, but still, you might want to apply... — Jenny Sanders Mar 31, 2005

Cauliflower With Paprika

(1 person found this helpful) Posted by Susie T  

I enjoyed this very much. I do agree that it is important to use a very good quality sweet paprika, since the flavour is quite dominant. I cooked the cauliflower specifically to make this recipe, but it would also be an excellent way to freshen up... — Jenny Sanders Mar 31, 2005

Torshi Lift

(4 people found this helpful) Posted by Angela Sara  

Lovely easy recipe for wonderful pickles! These are both more garlicky and more beet-y than the ones I've had in restaurants, and next time I make them I think I will use less beet, both because I found the beet flavour a bit strong and the colour... — Jenny Sanders Mar 28, 2005

Salmon with Mustardy Celeriac Mash

(2 people found this helpful) Posted by MarieAlice  

As advertised, this was very quick and easy to put together. The mustard and lemon was a nice touch with the celeriac. I'm surprised this meal hasn't been discovered by people on low-carb diets - it's a good one for that. — Jenny Sanders Mar 18, 2005

French Pie Pastry

(4 people found this helpful) Posted by Marie  

I feel a little odd reviewing this, because I certainly tampered with the text. However; it worked very well! I cut the recipe in half and used brown rice flour, as I needed a gluten-free pastry. It worked fine. I needed to add a bit more water (I... — Jenny Sanders Mar 6, 2005

Scrambled Tofu

(1 person found this helpful) Posted by DR. House  

I used a 12oz box of Mori-Nu soft tofu, so tripled the recipe. However, I found the soft tofu to be the wrong texture - it needs to be more a medium-firm texture, I think. I didn't add any water either; good thing. However, I was quite happy with... — Jenny Sanders Mar 6, 2005

Mushroom & Nut Pate

(3 people found this helpful) Posted by Lizzie-Babette  

Well I wouldn't call this low-fat! It's actually quite rich, and correspondingly delicious. I took this to a pot-luck, where it was a big hit. I did use whole almonds (since I had them) and added a bit of savory. I just used plain white mushrooms.... — Jenny Sanders Mar 6, 2005

Lentil-carrot Loaf

(10 people found this helpful) Posted by fireyangelxoxo  

I like this a lot, and have made it a couple of times now. We've had it hot, with tomato sauce, and cold, munched on in the car. It's definitely going to be a regular. Easy to make, healthy, and a good texture. My one complaint is that the... — Jenny Sanders Feb 19, 2005

Balsamic Mushroom Chicken

(4 people found this helpful) Posted by Irmgard  

Very nice! I reduced this in half for the two of us, and used huge, meaty fresh shiitake for the mushrooms and a mix of dried savory and thyme so I could make this without needing to buy anything... I did thicken the broth a bit with arrowroot as... — Jenny Sanders Feb 5, 2005

Sirloin Tip Roast

(2 people found this helpful) Posted by Alan Leonetti  

I used broth instead of the wine to make this, and omitted the au jus mix and garlic powder. With these minor changes, we had a great roast - nice mustardy crust on it. My one sorrow was that all the broth dried up in the roasting pan, pretty... — Jenny Sanders Feb 5, 2005

Rack of Lamb (With Lemon Rosemary Baste)

(2 people found this helpful) Posted by Alan Leonetti  

This was very easy, and pleasant too. It was very convenient that it used regular pantry items. I did find that I needed to roast it a little longer than suggested; but it may be that my oven is not too reliable these days. — Jenny Sanders Jan 28, 2005

Cocoa Banana Smoothie (fat Free)

(1 person found this helpful) Posted by ladypit  

Mmm! Although I must confess, mine wasn't fat-free; I cheated and used chocolate flavoured soymilk for both the skim milk and condensed milk. I also added a few drops of vanilla. — Jenny Sanders Jan 26, 2005
