Huli Huli Chicken

Posted by Chef #455710  

Amazing sauce! I halved the recipe and took a few shortcuts, but it still came out wonderful. I brined it for about 3 hours, then baked it at 375 degrees for 30 minutes, then soaked it in the sauce (which I didn't cook) for another 30 minutes... — Picholine Aug 20, 2009

Chicken in Balsamic Barbecue Sauce

Posted by diner524  

Superb! I prepared this for a church cookout where each family grills their own meat and brings a side dish to share. People were more interested in sharing our chicken than the salad I brought! This is definitely a keeper--thank you. — Picholine Aug 19, 2009

So simple yet so perfect! I've made this twice now as written, except that I used a little less miso. — Picholine Aug 11, 2009

Strawberry Avocado Salad

Posted by Boo Chef in West Texas  

Made for Craze-E 2009 Contest. I liked the simplicity and creative ingredient combination of this recipe, but I found it too tart. It improved when I added a bit of sugar. I really couldn't taste the apple cider vinegar, so I think to keep it in... — Picholine Jul 14, 2009

Fresh Summertime Vegetable Salad

Posted by Dreamer in Ontario  

Unique and flavorful salad! Made for Craze-E Contest 2009. I made it exactly as directed...except I could only find frozen French haricots verts in our market--I used the microwave to defrost/steam them and then rinsed with cold water, as... — Picholine Jul 14, 2009

Sinfully Satisfying Chili

Posted by R. Warren Meddoff  

Excellent chili! I followed the technique of the recipe and the seasonings but customized some of the ingredients to what I had on hand: ground turkey, red bell pepper, one seeded serrano pepper, regular and chipotle chili powder, canned beans... — Picholine Jul 10, 2009

Bittman Cabbage Salad

Posted by Elmotoo  

This was flavorful and fresh tasting, but I would omit the parsley next time--it didn't quite work for me. I used yellow peppers since that's what I had but I'd go with the sweeter red ones next time. — Picholine Jul 3, 2009

Excellent Beef Jerky

Posted by AlexCooley  

Excellent indeed! Turned out even better than storebought jerky. I made it as directed except for adding a 1/4 t of red pepper flakes which gave it a nice zing--I would add even more for a spicy hot jerky. I forgot to drain the meat on paper... — Picholine Jun 6, 2009

Beef Stroganoff

Posted by DesperateHousewife  

Excellent! At the last minute I realized I was out of sour cream, so I went looking for a recipe using cream cheese, and this did not disappoint. I used a little less and may even try only 4 oz next time because it was plenty rich. I'll also... — Picholine Apr 21, 2009

Green Beans and Broccoli With a Bacon-Lemon Topping

Posted by Zurie  

Delicious! I boiled the veggies about 5-7 minutes to make sure they would be tender. I halved the recipe and it still had a nice amount of sauce. I cut the sugar but next time I won't because the lemon juice made it just a touch tart for my... — Picholine Apr 21, 2009

Chicken Artichoke Skillet

Posted by SweetySJD  

Very good! I needed to use up a red onion and red/yellow peppers, so I sauteed them with the chicken (cut in bite size pieces). That made it very colorful and the ratio of veggies to meat higher. I served it with herbed naan bread from Trader... — Picholine Mar 28, 2009

Fettuccine with Asparagus, Bacon, and Browned Bread Crumbs

Posted by Tish  

A hidden gem! I'm astonished no one has reviewed this recipe in the 7 years since it was published, but so glad I finally made it tonight. It reminded me of carbonara but with broth and bread crumbs instead of egg yolks. I followed the... — Picholine Mar 26, 2009

Tomato Florentine Rice Soup

Posted by CountryLady  

Superb! I was pressed for time so I made it only an hour (instead of 2) by boiling in every step that called for simmering. I subbed about 5 oz tomato paste + water for tomato juice. I only had about 1/2 t of white pepper so it wasn't spicy but I... — Picholine Mar 22, 2009

Bacon Explosion!

(2 people found this helpful) Posted by Sharlene~W  

My husband found this on a blog and was determined to make it, but it was raining, so he did it in a hot oven instead, which worked, but unfortunately he overcooked it. He used only one pound of bacon and my turkey sausage recipe here on zaar to... — Picholine Mar 13, 2009

Artichoke Pesto Hummus

Posted by Abby Girl  

Delicious! I had made arugula pesto from another recipe on Zaar, so I used that and halved the recipe so it would fit in our small food processor (and since it was only for the two of us--picky kids!). Since the recipe doesn't have garlic, I... — Picholine Feb 21, 2009

Moldavian Potato, Feta and Scallion Salad

Posted by j-jitterbug  

Wonderful! I made this for a women's potluck today and got rave reviews. The only changes I made were to use almost one tablespoon of dried dill and the addition of a handful of pitted kalamata olives. I love the zesty flavor and and fresh... — Picholine Feb 12, 2009

Eggnog Coffee (Non-Alcoholic)

(1 person found this helpful) Posted by Sharon123  

No more Starbucks holiday coffee for me! This is just as good and probably less sugary. In addition to the nutmeg, I added cinnamon and cloves to the grounds. I also put the eggnog and sugar directly in the bottom of the coffee pot instead of... — Picholine Dec 17, 2008

This was delicious with ginger ale instead of 7-up. I made it for one, so just used a 1/4 cup of each ingredient. — Picholine Dec 16, 2008

Cream of Spinach Soup With Crushed Bacon Chips

Delicious and nutritious, if a bit heavy on the calories! I used half butter, half Smart Balance. I couldn't resist topping it with grated cheddar cheese as well as the bacon. Next time I'll try thickening it with instant potato flakes instead... — Picholine Dec 16, 2008

Spiced Apple-Pomegranate Cider

Posted by LonghornMama  

Delicious! I accidentally added the pomegranate juice in with everything else in the beginning but it didn't seem to hurt it. Rather than boiling it first, I just simmered it uncovered for about an hour to make the aroma permeate the house. I... — Picholine Dec 7, 2008
