Traditional Mango Chutney

(6 people found this helpful) Posted by truebrit  

This is really an excellent recipe. It's available throughout the Internet. I have a few suggestions. Make sure the mangoes are ripe but still pretty firm. The recipe says hard, but hard mangoes are not as flavorful, so try for the mid-point.... — Mary Leverington Jun 18, 2006

Oat Bran Wonder

(6 people found this helpful) Posted by 1Steve  

I'm always interested in ways to include bran in my food, so this recipe seemed promising. I had a bit of trepedation because my bread machine requires liquids first, but I decided to risk it. I followed the recipe exactly except I used regular... — Mary Leverington Jan 8, 2004

Crock Pot Black Eyed Peas and Okra

(1 person found this helpful) Posted by Shellbelle  

Good basic recipe. I only used three cans of black-eyed peas. I couldn't get another can in the crock pot. I used fresh okra; added a diced jalapeno pepper including seeds and a small piece of ham hock to give this \ — Mary Leverington Oct 15, 2003

To Die for Crock Pot Roast

(2 people found this helpful) Posted by yooper  

I liked this recipe very, very much. Since I live alone, I cut the roast in half and made enough for four days. It doesn't really matter how large the roast is. It depends on how many people you want to feed. I also divided the mixes in two... — Mary Leverington Oct 8, 2003

Curried Chickpeas & Kale

(5 people found this helpful) Posted by Dancer^  

I doubled the tomatoes and added a few more garlic cloves. It was a little too hot for my taste, so next time I'll cut back on the curry powder. Thanks for the recipe. I really loved it. — Mary Leverington Mar 29, 2003

Too salty. I'd recommend using the low sodium chicken broth. — Mary Leverington Mar 29, 2003

Chickpea & Green Bean Salad

(1 person found this helpful) Posted by Dancer^  

Some nice green beans arrived in the grocery store this week and I couldn't resist. I liked this salad very, very much and will make it again. You didn't really mean 1/8 CUP did you? I added what I thought to be 1/8 teaspoon, but it actually... — Mary Leverington Mar 9, 2003

Best Blueberry Cake

(3 people found this helpful) Posted by Karen=^..^=  

The cake was light and moist, but I found the taste of the lemon extract too "chemical"; I would use fresh lemon juice next time. I also thought there was too much sugar and I prefer butter over shortening. I should have spread the blueberries... — Mary Leverington Jan 20, 2003

Crock Pot Turkey Breast

Posted by Ridgely  

Basically, the garlic was a disaster. I had a bad feeling about it, but, being a garlic lover, I plunged ahead. If you're determined to fix turkey breast this way, be advised that you should cook it on low for 7 1/2 hrs. I cooked it on high for... — Mary Leverington Nov 7, 2002

Cabin Corn Chowder

Posted by Bertha C.  

I cut the bacon in half and drained off most of the bacon fat and the taste of bacon still seemed too intense. I also thought celery was more appropriate than green pepper. — Mary Leverington Oct 22, 2002

Blueberry Muffins

Posted by Charishma Ramchandani  

This made 14 muffins. Quite tasty. I think I would add some vanlla next time and maybe reduce the blueberries to 1 cup. Also, at 400F these muffins are done in 15 minutes. — Mary Leverington Oct 21, 2002

White White White

(8 people found this helpful) Posted by HOUSEMANAGER (Charlene)  

I'm relatively new to the bread machine (althought not new to bread-making)and I've had my share of disappointments. I thought the taste and texture of this bread was excellent, but I had to add three tablespoons more flour due to the fact that I... — Mary Leverington Oct 20, 2002

Tender Pot Roast

(9 people found this helpful) Posted by Steve_G  

I, too, fixed this in the crockpot. I browned the roast, then carmelized the onions in the pan and added the garlic and the thyme (I used dry.) I prefer to use a beef base so I dissolved it in the 2 cups of hot water along with the sugar and... — Mary Leverington Oct 4, 2002

Emily's Hot Pepper Jelly

(2 people found this helpful) Posted by papergoddess  

Just a couple of observations: First, it makes four pints, not six; secondly, I recommend you skim the foam from the top before you ladle it into jars. Maybe that goes without saying. It seems very sweet to me; maybe you can cut down on the... — Mary Leverington Sep 30, 2002

Dilled Carrots

Posted by Madams1@telus.net  

I added one whole clove, a small dill head and 1/4 teaspoon of crushed red pepper instead of thea cayenne to each jar. This should make the carrots hotter. I haven't tasted them yet. The recipe made three pints not four. Also, one of the jars... — Mary Leverington Sep 23, 2002
