French Onion Soup With Browned Garlic

Posted by LikeItLoveIt  

It was such a pleasant surprise to find a delicious french onion soup recipe that's not laden with butter. The onions and garlic cooking in the sherry smell wonderful, and the final product tastes even better. I do normally use toasted croutons... — Allison Williams Jan 10, 2009

Hidden Valley Ranch Buttermilk Dressing Mix

Posted by DiB's  

Delicious. Made this in December using dried herbs from my own summer garden and buttermilk from a local dairy - it's nice to have something that tastes "fresh" in the middle of winter! Much better than the bottled stuff. Served with homemade... — Allison Williams Dec 25, 2008

White Lily Waffles

Posted by Tilynna Wilson  

These were the lightest waffles we've ever made. I actually did use White Lilly (it's pretty common in NC). I made up the batter & then let the waffle iron heat, which gave the batter enough time to rise a bit. I also added 1/2 tsp vanilla... — Allison Williams Nov 11, 2007

Beer Burgers With Beer Braised Onions

Posted by Lvs2Cook  

I'm so glad I didn't cut back on the onions - they MAKE this dish. We used Sam Adams Oktoberfest, extra sharp cheddar, mustard instead of ketchup, and added a little chopped garlic to the burgers. We'll definitely be making this again! — Allison Williams Sep 4, 2007

Fatoosh

(1 person found this helpful) Posted by Fluffy  

Wonderful flavorful summmer supper. I normally cut this in half and have enough for a light meal for two. I've also topped with sliced herb-marinated grilled chicken. The toasted pita is a great idea - I cheat and toast it in my toaster oven! — Allison Williams Apr 24, 2007

Schnitzel

(2 people found this helpful) Posted by momstar  

This just gets better every time I make it. I usually add the salt, pepper, & paprika into the flour instead of directly unto the meat. I find that if I pay attention & make sure the meat is completely coated after each round (flour, egg,... — Allison Williams Feb 25, 2007

Pasta With Caramelized Onion Trio, Arugula, With Mozzarella

Posted by Kanzeda  

This had a decent flavor - the carmelized onions give it just a hint of sweetness - but was not terrible impressive for the amount of effort (and dirty dishes) involved. We topped this with fresh ground pepper, yet it still seemed to be missing... — Allison Williams Dec 17, 2006

Kittencal's Spinach & Four-Cheese Manicotti (Vegetarian)

(2 people found this helpful) Posted by KITTENCAL  

This is an impressive dish for everyday and for company. I did need longer than 45 minutes to put this together - it takes a few tries to get the hand of stuffing the manicotti. Anyway, I used fresh spinach (threw it in with the onions at the end... — Allison Williams Nov 19, 2006

Pesto Brie Melt

Posted by Julesong  

Very flavorful but a bit oily - next time I will try Martha's idea of keeping it warm in a fondue pot, as the oil seems to settle on top as the dish cools. Served with baguette slices, this makes a nice lunch or snack. — Allison Williams Mar 26, 2006

Garlicky Hummus

(1 person found this helpful) Posted by Sharon123  

Great taste and very easy to make. The roasted garlic really adds flavor, and I thouht the consistency was just right without adding and water. This was even better the next day, once the flavors had some time to mingle. Served with toasted pita... — Allison Williams Feb 23, 2006

Spicy Lentil Tomato Stew

Posted by dividend  

This had a wonderful flavor (I did use fresh instead of canned tomatoes and subbed veggie stock for the chicken). Unfortunately though, this lost a lot of its appeal, visually and texturally, after I pureed. I will make this again, but will not... — Allison Williams Jan 28, 2006

Peasant Bread

Thanks so much for this recipe - the directions are easy to follow and the finished product is always a hit. We've had this with pasta, with soup, toasted with butter for breakfast, and as a sandwich bread for lunch. I like to form a longer, more... — Allison Williams Jan 24, 2006

Herbed Garlic Bread

Posted by bert  

The flavor of the herbed garlic butter was pleasing, but somehow cooking it wrapped in foil resulted in a rather soggy bread. I'll definitely use the butter again, but next time I'll just throw it under the broiler w/o the foil. — Allison Williams Jan 7, 2006

Beer Can Chicken

(1 person found this helpful) Posted by opal Fitzgerald  

This was certainly the most moist and tender chicken we have ever made - we could hardly believe that a home-cooked chicken could turn out to be so good. We followed the prep and cooking directions exactly, using our gas grill, and for a little... — Allison Williams Dec 28, 2005

Focaccia Farcita (Filled Italian Hearth Bread)

This made a wonderful companion to our Italian dinner. I was nervous about it, because it looked SO big going into the oven, but it turned out so well and delicious that the two of us finished it off in one day. We'll have fun making this over and... — Allison Williams Dec 21, 2005

Brunch Eggs With Herbed Cheese Sauce

These were actually easier to make than they look. The result was a great flavor and a beautiful presentation. I'd accidentally picked up a cheddar cheese flavored with horseradish, and it did add an interesting touch to the sauce. I will try this... — Allison Williams Dec 18, 2005

English Muffins

(2 people found this helpful) Posted by s'kat  

These were rather unfortunate. I tried to follow the recipe, but there wasn't nearly enough liquid to get a dough to form. And are these supposed to bake in the oven or cook on the stovetop? I tried them on the stovetop, as that seems to be the... — Allison Williams Dec 18, 2005

Acorn Bread

(2 people found this helpful) Posted by KnittinKitten  

This made a nice, sweet, not too dense bread - a crumbly dessert bread, good with a thick slab of butter. I lost count of how many times I boiled the acorns: I was unable to remove all the skin from the nuts at first, but after a few rounds of... — Allison Williams Nov 16, 2005

Lasagna

(2 people found this helpful) Posted by Beaner in Washington  

One of our all-time favorite meals. The meat sauce is fantastic and would stand alone as a great sauce for any pasta. I have made this with regular and "no-boil" noodles, which saves time and still turns out great. We normally freeze the extra... — Allison Williams Nov 12, 2005
