Stuffed Swiss Chard

(3 people found this helpful) Posted by Joey Jabaley  

Words can't describe how incredible this dish is! The combination of flavours is perfect. Despite my best attempts to follow the recipe exactly, I did make a few changes. First, I only had 3 lemons, which, from my juicer yielded a little over... — FinallyGrowingUp Jan 21, 2008

Baked Catfish

Posted by Hey Jude  

First, I have to say that my husband absolutely LOVED this! (And he is the pickiest eater I've ever encountered). I made it with small catfish pieces instead of filets and as a result, there was a higher ratio of breading to fish — which is... — FinallyGrowingUp Dec 31, 2007

Raita

(1 person found this helpful) Posted by Ashley U  

This is a great recipe for radish! I made this with 2% greek yogurt and radishes. Unfortunately I did not have fresh ginger, so I used enough ginger powder to give a slight ginger flavour. I also used a few dashes of curry powder and a bit of... — FinallyGrowingUp Dec 30, 2007

Maple Collard Greens

(1 person found this helpful) Posted by Suzy_Q  

Hooray for an AWESOME vegetarian recipe for Collard Greens! I followed your recipe to the "T" (even dusted off the measuring spoons to get it exact) because I've never found a great recipe for these slightly tough and bitter greens. But this is... — FinallyGrowingUp Dec 21, 2007

Kale Chips

(1 person found this helpful) Posted by yogi  

I am so hooked on this recipe! It is the BEST recipe for "healthy" snack food I've ever tried. I've made it 3 times now, and it's the only thing I ever want to do with Kale when I get it! My ultimate proportions are: 2 tbsp Olive Oil, 2 tbsp... — FinallyGrowingUp Dec 16, 2007

Crock Pot Collard Greens in Tomato Sauce

Posted by Olga Drozd  

This was pretty good, and I appreciate a different way to make collard greens, but it was a little too chewy and a bit bitter for my preferences. However, I did omit the bacon and (knowing myself) I think I probably at least tripled the garlic,... — FinallyGrowingUp Dec 11, 2007

Celeriac Salad (Celery Root)

(1 person found this helpful) Posted by Bergy  

This was AWESOME. I love the combination of the mustard and sour cream (or, Greek yogurt as I used). I did not have the peppers on hand, so did not use, but it was a wonderful experience that I will recreate any time I get my hands on celeriac!... — FinallyGrowingUp Dec 10, 2007

Mashed Potatoes

Posted by Karina Isabel Caputi  

This is perfect — I got raves at Thanksgiving for my mashed potatoes (and my husband's family is extraordinarily hard to please!) I followed the recipe to the "T", using half heavy cream and half milk. — FinallyGrowingUp Dec 10, 2007

Turnip Puff

(1 person found this helpful) Posted by Tebo  

This is the best recipe for turnips I have tried. I must say, they are an acquired taste, but they do grow on you. I made this ahead of time and brought it for lunch for a few days and found myself craving it! I took another reviewer's advice... — FinallyGrowingUp Dec 10, 2007

West Indian Pumpkin Soup

(2 people found this helpful) Posted by Sue L  

This was an undertaking for me, but it was well worthwhile! I omitted the pepper because I'm rather a wimp when it comes to spicy foods. I also used a vegetable stock and an entire can of lite coconut milk (because I didn't want to waste it).... — FinallyGrowingUp Oct 27, 2007

Marinated Fennel

Posted by GoKittenGo  

This was light and refreshing. I found it a tiny bit too oily for my taste — I will reduce the olive oil next time and probably double the lemon for my own tastes. This is my new favorite fennel recipe — it's a keeper. Thank you! — FinallyGrowingUp Oct 27, 2007

Leeks in Cheese Sauce

(2 people found this helpful) Posted by FlemishMinx  

This was to die for! I actually used 3 leaks and added a red pepper and a package of mushrooms (which I sauteed and lightly drained first). I can see using this cream and cheese base with almost any vegetable combination. Thanks!! — FinallyGrowingUp Oct 27, 2007

Honey- Orange Parsnips

(1 person found this helpful) Posted by Shirl (J) 831  

This was so wonderful!!! Even my veggie-hating 4-year old loved it so much, he wouldn't let me finish it — I have to save the rest for him for later! Next time, I think I will slice the parsnips more thinly and I will definitely need to double... — FinallyGrowingUp Oct 27, 2007

Kielbasa and Kale Soup

Posted by mer@  

I made a variation of this with dried white beans, whole wheat pasta, fresh Kale and an herbed chicken sausage. It was a wonderful meal that I had for lunch for days. The only thing I would recommend is to keep the pasta separate from the soup... — FinallyGrowingUp Sep 29, 2007

Quick Silken Tofu Chocolate Pudding

(1 person found this helpful) Posted by Kree  

Phenomenal — more like a chocolate mousse than a pudding. I, too, used cinnamon instead of nutmeg, and, unwittingly I used 16 oz of tofu to 6 oz of chocolate. It was so quick and easy to prepare. Note that the texture was much improved after a... — FinallyGrowingUp Sep 3, 2007
