Ginger Peanut Soup

Posted by mielhollinger  

We've made this recipe several times, and it's really good and so easy. I like that there are few ingredients, it's not too tomato-ey. It's very good as it, and it's also really easy to add to depending on what's in the fridge, carrots are nice,... — cookingofjoy Jan 6, 2009

Barbie Birthday Cake

Posted by DbKnadler  

My daughter (4) loves Barbie cakes! She's had one for her last two birthdays. This year I put on the base dress, and then she decorated - she loved it! Also not for this specific recipe, but I've used my KA mixer bowl and 2 nine inch pans with... — cookingofjoy Aug 17, 2008

Key Lime Sorbet

(1 person found this helpful) Posted by KathyP53  

I used half Nellie and Joe's key lime juice and half fresh regular limes. The whole family really liked it. Nice and tart! I also used the ice cream maker and then let it harden a few hrs in the freezer - separated into two containers to make... — cookingofjoy Aug 1, 2008

Spicy Black Bean Burritos

Posted by Geema  

We really liked these! Like other reviewers said, the smokiness of the chipotles was really nice! It was really quick and nice for a meal with pantry items! Thanks! — cookingofjoy Jul 8, 2008

Baked Sweet Potato Fries

Posted by Mirj  

I love baked sweet potato fries but I've previously only used an oregano/salt/cayenne combo from the gourmet cookbook. The nutmeg was very nice, and not at all overwhelming, the seasoning salt kept it savory. Very nice - thanks! — cookingofjoy Jul 7, 2008

Crusty Cranberry Bread With Caramel Almonds (Almost No Knead)

(1 person found this helpful) Posted by C. Taylor  

Really great bread! It took me til the third loaf to get the shaping down, but after that they're beautiful! It seemed easier for me to shape them after an overnight in the fridge. And it smells amazing when baking!!! I can't believe I can... — cookingofjoy Mar 24, 2008

Popcorn Snack

Posted by DiB's  

This was so good!!! I did not add the nuts (kid's preference), but I can imagine pecans or cashews would be fantastic. I'd never made my own caramel popcorn before, and this was easier than I'd imagined. It coated really well - stirring midway... — cookingofjoy Feb 10, 2008

Stuffed Chicken Breasts With Feta, Spinach, and Ham

Posted by CareCook  

These are so nice to have on hand- very convenient! They were quite easy - I cut the chicken breast in half and then rolled it up (like the directions for Stuffed Chicken Cutlets #182463) and baked at 375 for 40 min(split the difference for... — cookingofjoy Jan 22, 2008

Pork Chops and Apples

Posted by Montana-GemBob  

Very good! I made a couple changes -didn't add the butter and added half an onion to the apples. I also only baked for about 40 min, uncovered the last 5-10 or so. Really nice flavor! Thanks! — cookingofjoy Jan 22, 2008

Creamy Tortilla Soup-Vegetarian

(1 person found this helpful) Posted by carolinajen4  

This was so good! I made some substitutions based on what I had on hand (1 can Red Gold tomatoes & chiles, 1 can reg tomatoes; water for veg broth). It was still hot enough for me. Really good! Thanks! — cookingofjoy Jan 22, 2008

Sewickley Hotel Diet Chicken

Posted by 3KillerBs  

I love this! We throw frozen chicken and dressing in a ziploc the day before, and then grill. Like the other reviewer said, leftovers are great! I like them in chicken salad with a little peppered season-all. — cookingofjoy Jan 18, 2008

Gretchen's No Caramel - Caramel Apple Dip

(1 person found this helpful) Posted by Hill Family  

Really nice with apples! My only tip is to make sure it can sit a while, immediately after mixing it was a little grainy. Great recipe - thanks! — cookingofjoy Nov 6, 2007

Pepper Jack Potatoes

Posted by ratherbeswimmin'  

These were really tasty! I left out the cayenne thinking that it'd be too spicy for the kid, but I'll put it in next time (otherwise made as directed). Thanks! — cookingofjoy Oct 27, 2007

Couscous/Garbanzo Salad

Posted by KLHquilts  

This was really nice, and it was so quick to put together! We like a lot of dressing, so I'd probably double that portion next time and maybe add still more red pepper. Great salad for a summer meal! Thanks! — cookingofjoy Oct 8, 2007

German Chocolate Bars

We love this recipe! We'd also found it on the box. Like others mentioned, really easy, and it's a little different than the usual brownie, but it's always received really well. Even for such an easy recipe, the one thing I've done wrong a few... — cookingofjoy Oct 2, 2007

Spinach, Bacon, and Avocado Salad

(2 people found this helpful) Posted by Cooks, Shoots & Leafs  

This was fantastic! We just had it for dinner, and it was perfect for 2 as a main dish. I left the dressing separate, and we ended up using about half. Really, really good - we'll definitely be making this again! — cookingofjoy Sep 11, 2007

Tofu Chocolate "ice Cream"

(1 person found this helpful) Posted by Vegan Freak  

I really liked this - though I used 1/2 c sugar instead of the substitute. I'll also try freezing in my ice cream maker next time, though I'm not sure how that may work since it's pretty thick to start with. Great flavor though - thanks so much! — cookingofjoy Sep 11, 2007
