Wish I Could Cook

"These are awesome! And the recipe was flexible enough to succeed even though I fiddled a little based on what was in the cupboard... I used black beans, cashews, and skipped the jalapeno and ground red pepper. In hindsight, I should have upped the chili powder a little to compensate, but I am a bit of a spice wimp... Rather than getting my grater ..."

"I thought this was delicious! I also own the Candle 79 cookbook and this was the first recipe I made from it. So glad to see it posted here. I used Gardein "chik'n" cutlets in place of the seitan, but otherwise followed the recipe exactly. The sauce is light and flavorful. You're going to love it and you'll make it again when company is coming -..."

"I made a a stuffed pumpkin tonight and staring at the pile of seeds I said "I wonder if recipezaar has a pumpkin seed recipe..." This one caught my eye and lucky it did because it was great! I actually melted the butter and spices in a bowl, stirred in the seeds and spread them out on a cookie sheet. Couldn't be easier!"

"I'm so glad you posted this here. I never remember the ratio. And I'm also glad you left out the red dye. All the experts say that the red on the feeder is what attracts the hummers not the red in the liquid. In fact, some experts say the dye can be harmful. thanks!"

Strangely, I liked it best when it was freshly made, the nuts were crunchier and the lemon tartness came through better. After being covered overnight, the tang from the sauce sort of disappeared. So if I were making the salad ahead, I might wait to add t..."

"Good and easy! It really was so simple to put together and full of flavor. While not going to fool anyone into thinking it's dairy cheese, it's simply good for what it is - a wonderful spread/dip. I also used it as the melted cheez in another recipe from that cookbook - cheez-a-roni. I posted that recipe here as receipe #450061."

"Really Good! And you'll laugh at my subs, but this still turned out good enough for five stars. I read the title and thought I have grape leaves (that bottle I never knew what to do with, fig (I bought my first container of fresh figs ever, and goat cheese (half a log leftover from a different recipe. But I didn't read the rest of the list b..."

"What a wonderful sub for cream! I was in a bit of a rush so I used boiling water to soak them and then waited a couple of hours. Not sure how it compares to the overnight soak, but I can say it was a perfect substitute and so easy to do."

"Delish! What a great tasting soup. I cheated a bit with the cashew cream, by using boiling water for a couple of hours instead of overnight, but it worked great. And an immersion blender works great here instead of a blender. Everyone loved it and I'll be happy to make it again!"
