Spicy Black-eyed Pea Soup

Posted by Sue L  

I was skeptical that I'd like this, because I WANT to like black-eyed peas, but rarely do. HOWEVER, this recipe was great!! This is so delicious, I can hardly believe it. I cut down on the salt. Also, I cooled this in the 'fridge overnight,... — QG Sep 5, 2009

Glut

Posted by Carole Whitmore  

This is very good. I made it as shown, but I used light sour cream. I also added several generous grinds of black pepper, and several tablespoons of milk at the end to thin it out a bit. The anchovies are not optional. Don't be afraid; you... — QG Aug 30, 2009

Cilantro Pesto

Posted by Skippy [BW]  

I made this using walnuts instead of pine, since I don't have any. I also don't have dulse. I used 3 cloves of garlic, because I LOVE garlic. I also added juice from one fresh lime. Delicious! I mixed with a little low fat mayo and some... — QG May 4, 2009

Very good soup. I made only a few small changes, but otherwise followed recipe exactly. I added a minced jalapeno with the onions and celery. I used a second can of black beans. I pureed nearly the whole batch with a stick blender. I added a... — QG Apr 2, 2009

Spanish Scrambled Eggs With Pimenton and Asparagus

(1 person found this helpful) Posted by French Tart  

What a simple, but delicious dish. A few bites of the asparagus were tough, but that is my fault for not trimming them enough. The flavor was far better than I would have guessed from the short list of ingredients. — QG Apr 2, 2009

Chile-Vinegar Turnip Greens

(1 person found this helpful) Posted by s'kat  

Very good. I used a little bit of smoked hog jowl to render some fat instead of olive oil. I sauteed some onion and then added the garlic and cooked until almost brown before adding the rest of the stuff. I also simmered rather than boiling,... — QG Jan 20, 2009

Jamaican Jerk Pork

Posted by DiB's  

Fantastic flavor. I made it exactly as described, but I added one more habanero (3 total). I also used pork tenderloins, not cubed up, and I did grill them. I have been looking for many years for a really great jerk recipe, and I think this one... — QG Nov 25, 2008

Pakistani Dhal

This was really good! I used chicken broth and a whole can of tomatoes. I can't get red lentils, so I used regular brown ones. I'll try to find reds next time. — QG Oct 22, 2008

(1 person found this helpful) Posted by Lightly Toasted  

Made according to recipe, but cut down on the salt and butter. Added shredded parmesan during last 10 minutes to make a cheesy crust. Will cut the cloves in half next time. Very tasty, simple dish. — QG Sep 29, 2008

Brown and Dirty Rice

Posted by Aroostook  

I like the clever play on words with the name of the dish! I made this pretty much as listed here, but I used goose fat instead of butter, and added some diced red bell pepper for color. Also added some Tony Chachere's Creole Seasoning. And... — QG Jul 7, 2008

Kittencal's Perfect Pesto

(4 people found this helpful) Posted by KITTENCAL  

I mixed some of this with light mayo for an excellent sandwich spread. I bet mixed with sour cream, it would be a good veggie dip. And mixed with butter, great on corn on the cob. — QG Jul 3, 2008

I was skeptical at first, because I like to have meat in everything. However, this soup was excellent. I omitted mushrooms, leeks, and green beans, because I had none in the house. I also used brown lentils rather than red. My herbs were... — QG Feb 24, 2008

Uncle Bill's Green Split Pea With Hambone Soup

This was great! I used a ham bone, and also two smoked pork necks (they were on sale). Instead of boullion, I used some frozen turkey stock I had. I used less water overall than called for. I, too, burned my lip fairly badly trying to taste it... — QG Feb 7, 2008

Turkey Tetrazzini

Very nice. I used baby portabellos and velveeta cheese. Also some turkey stock I had on hand rather than broth. Next time, I might use red bell pepper just for a color contrast. — QG Jan 3, 2008

Oven Baked Salmon Soup

Posted by Dancer^  

This was far better than the list of ingredients suggested! I didn't have enough clam juice, so I subbed some water there. I also felt the dish needed a little more soy sauce. Next time, I might add some slivered fresh chiles to the garnish.... — QG Dec 25, 2007
