Viv's Raisin Pie

Posted by Vina  

Not too terribly sweet, a wee bit tart. It was a major hit around our place. Today is the day after and I'm already baking the second one. Yummy. — Giovanni Duca Sep 11, 2003

Quiche Lorraine

Posted by truebrit  

"Real men don't eat quiche," remember that phrase? What balderdash! Real vegan men don't eat quiche, but hey, that's their loss, right? Except for the heavy cream everything I needed was in the old icebox. What is 'heavy cream' by the way? Off... — Giovanni Duca Jul 29, 2003

Scalloped Potatoes and Ham

(2 people found this helpful) Posted by Dancer^  

Can you spell "mmmmMMmmmm?" I did it in a glass 9 X 13 dish and when it came out of the oven it was just beautiful. Smelled great! All it had to do was be so-so in taste and I would have been happy, but good as it looked and smelled — it tasted... — Giovanni Duca Jul 29, 2003

Banana Banana Bread

(3 people found this helpful) Posted by Shelley Albeluhn  

This is not banana bread, this simple delicious recipe goes far beyond that. I'm thinking culinary perfection. I just had to add about 3/4 cup of coarsly chopped dates. It smelled so good I just couldn't wait for it to cool properly. My low fat... — Giovanni Duca Jul 20, 2003

Pizza

(2 people found this helpful) Posted by Darlene Summers  

Pretty danged good, by golly. I used this recipe for just the dough which turned out just about right for my own unconventional pizza toppings. Unconventional means that instead of tomato-based ingredients I used pesto and added 80 grams worth of... — Giovanni Duca Jul 17, 2003

Oatmeal Muffins

(1 person found this helpful) Posted by wildheart  

They ended up like solid little lumps; kind of dense and undistinctive in flavour. I'm a bit of a spice freak and I'd doubled the cinnamon, but even that didn't help. My quest for the perfect oatmeal muffing continues. — Giovanni Duca Jul 16, 2003

Spanish Bar Cake

(2 people found this helpful) Posted by 1Steve  

Delicious! Perfect. The cake is quite enough on its own and can easily do without the icing, it's that rich and moist. I'll be making this Spanish Bar often just to have it available for unexpected guests. On special occasions I'll make the icing... — Giovanni Duca Jul 11, 2003

Jamaican Jerk Marinade

(1 person found this helpful) Posted by Gingerbear  

I've eaten a fair amount of jerk in my time. I've had jerk from roadside jerk joints on the north shore of Jamaica and I've eaten a lot of it in Toronto's jerk joints. There are a lot of Jamaican restaurants in Toronto. So I have a really good... — Giovanni Duca Jul 5, 2003

A little over an hour ago I found the recipe. It looked good. IT looked quick 'n easy. I've already eaten two pieces of the result and I'm about to go back upstairs for a third piece. I like it. Thank you. — Giovanni Duca Jul 5, 2003
