The Best Brownies

Posted by Juenessa  

This title isn't an exaggeration- these really are the BEST brownies I've ever had! I only had an 8 x 8 pan, so they needed to be baked for another 7 minutes or so. They were so moist and gooey and extremely chocolate-y, exactly as I like my... — DCKiki Oct 3, 2009

Banana-Chocolate Chip Cookies

Posted by Ducky  

Excellent cookies! I had a lot of bananas that were turning brown quickly and wanted to use them to make something other than banana bread. These were perfect: no overwhelming banana flavor, and soft and cake-y (my favorite kind of cookie!). I... — DCKiki Aug 27, 2009

Spinach Feta Orzo

Posted by Geema  

Very yummy! We ate it as a vegetarian main dish for four. I increased the feta to about 1/3 cup but otherwise made no changes. I had never tried orzo before, and I'm glad this was the first recipe I chose for it! I think that next time, I'll add... — DCKiki Aug 27, 2009

barley risotto

Posted by chia  

Excellent recipe! Barley is one of my favorite grains, and I was so excited to try this. I loved how the barley stayed a bit chewy. I ran out of peas so I added in a small chopped carrot too, which worked perfectly. I added some dried basil to... — DCKiki May 3, 2009

Lovely dish! Eggplant and chickpeas are my favorite vegetables and I was hoping that this would be as good as it was. The spices were so complementary and I loved the hint of sweetness the raisins gave! I served it over cous cous for a wonderful... — DCKiki Apr 19, 2009

Eating Well's Whole Wheat Pizza Dough

Posted by greysangel  

Excellent recipe, it was exactly what I wanted. Using the food processor made it so unbelievably easy! When baked, the crust turned soft and chewy, which is just the way I like it. I also like that it's partially whole wheat. Thanks for sharing,... — DCKiki Apr 13, 2009

Excellent recipe. We like to have breakfast for dinner in my house so this was perfect with maple syrup and fruit salad! The orange flavor was really clear, but not overpowering. And the spices played up the orange flavor perfectly. I just used... — DCKiki Apr 9, 2009

Healthy Cornbread Muffins

Posted by swirlycinnacakes  

Delicious recipe! I meant to make three quarters of the recipe to only get eight muffins. I used three fourths of everything, except for buttermilk. I should've used 3/4 c. but I forgot and used 1 c. by mistake. I realized my mistake right before... — DCKiki Apr 6, 2009

Classic Bran Muffins

(1 person found this helpful) Posted by Kree  

These were spectacular! In my house, bran is synonymous with the word "yuck!", but no one complained about these! I didn't have any raisins so I just used one thinly sliced banana. These rose beautifully and were perfectly sweet. The bran actually... — DCKiki Apr 4, 2009

Sicilian Lentil Pasta Sauce

Posted by Missy Wombat  

Spectacular! I've never made homemade pasta sauce before and I'm really glad I tried this one first. It was very hearty, from the lentils. And the mushrooms provided a nice "meaty" texture. I added oregano and basil, and next time I'll probably... — DCKiki Mar 27, 2009

Feta Cheese, Kale & Red Onions

(2 people found this helpful) Posted by Bergy  

This was amazing! I did what other reviewers suggested and just added the kale at step 6 to keep it from getting too limp. It worked perfectly. I love feta so I doubled it. The garlic and onions fuse with the flavor of the kale perfectly! Will... — DCKiki Mar 22, 2009

Cheerio Applesauce Muffins

Posted by superblondieno2  

These were a nice way to start out the morning. I used honey nut cheerios because that's what we had, so I cut the sugar down to 1/3 c. I used half white whole wheat flour and half all purpose, and they still rose perfectly! They were very light... — DCKiki Mar 22, 2009

Corn Cakes

Posted by Melanie Davis  

This was a lovely, easy recipe. We had these for dinner with salads. I was expecting that these would be sort of crispy like cornbread, but as other reviewers have said they were like pancakes. I got 12 and they were very thick. I think that next... — DCKiki Mar 15, 2009

Nutty Mushroom Risotto

Broiled Polenta With Mushrooms and Cheese

Posted by Ms*Bindy  

This was brilliant. I love polenta so I was hoping that this recipe would be good, and it was! I didn't have any porcini so I used 2 c. regular mushrooms. I also used a splash of vegetable broth instead of white wine. My cheese was nicely browned... — DCKiki Mar 2, 2009

Italian Pasta and Beans (Pasta Faggioli)

Posted by Karen=^..^=  

This was so good! Very flavorful for being cooked in water. I added a couple shakes of oregano, and used rotini pasta because that's what we had on hand. I also omitted the celery. I was expecting this to be the consistency that it was, which... — DCKiki Mar 1, 2009

Butternut Squash and White Bean Soup

(1 person found this helpful) Posted by LUv 2 BaKE  

This soup is amazing! I used frozen squash puree and it worked great. I loved the smooth, thick texture and the hint of cinnamon. Next time I think I'll just use regular tomatoes as the Mexican was a bit too spicy for my family. Thanks for sharing! — DCKiki Feb 15, 2009
