Orange-Ginger Couscous

Posted by ratherbeswimmin'  

A very simple and delicious side dish that was just perfect to go with the grilled salmon we had for dinner. The citrus ginger flavor was not overpowering but delightfully subtle to my palate. Thanks for posting. — Jenna Naquin Jul 9, 2004

Lime Granita

(1 person found this helpful) Posted by Sharon123  

This is such a cooling and refreshing granita. I thought it made the perfect ending to a light summer dinner. It is more tart than sweet but that is what makes it so good. The slushy texture is just right. Thanks, will be making this one many more... — Jenna Naquin Jul 9, 2004

Hot Crab Dip

(5 people found this helpful) Posted by Bev  

This is the best crab dip I have tried and I have tried quite a few. Simple with just a few key ingredients. Has a slight bite from the horseradish which I think makes this dip. I served it with plain ole saltines. The best. Thank-you. — Jenna Naquin May 21, 2004

Loved the delicate fresh lemon flavor of these cookies. I used butter-flavored shortening which added something to the richness of the flavor I thought. Very good with my afternoon cup of coffee. Kids and family thought they were yummy also.... — Jenna Naquin May 21, 2004
