"I made this recipe yesterday (June 13, 2008, using one 15.5 oz can of Cannellini (white kidney beans; rinsed of course. I discovered too late, that I didn't have any allspice, so I just added an extra 1/2 tsp. of cinnamon and a couple extra shakes of cloves and nutmeg. Aside from this, the only other change I made to the recipe was Canola oil,..."

"With the Chinese New Year starting tomorrow, I thought I'd get a head start. I made your Spicy Sesame Noodles for our dinner tonight, but I couldn't resist tinkering with the recipe a bit. I'm notorious for ad libing to recipes, anyway. I made the sauce as stated EXCEPT I didn't have safflower oil. I used Canola oil, instead. For the chili sau..."

"Thanks Julesong. Your recipe was the perfect accompaniment to recipe #142093. I made both recipes for our dinner tonight. Who said beans and rice are a dull combination? Not I! Certainly not when one can assemble a gourmet meal with two recipes like these."

"My DH and I aren't vegetarians, but do we try to eat several meatless meals every week. When I read your recipe, Stellula, my mouth began to water. Luckily I had all of the necessary ingredients on hand, except for a red pepper! No problamo! I diced up half of a green pepper instead, and mixed it with the finely diced jalapeno pepper. I skipped ..."

"I like this salad because it is tasty, simple to make, and calls for few ingredients. I wasn't familiar with it, however, until my husband and I recently spent 4 weeks in the Czech Republic. Now we have it for lunch about 6 times a week. Several of the Sopsky salads that were served to us in the C.R. came with a small amount of what tasted like a ..."

"Absolutely delicious! This soup was just what I was looking for, Carole. It contains two ingredients I'm fond of, but wouldn't have thought of putting together: lentils and bulgur. It also allowed me to use up some fresh spinach and parsley that I didn't want to go to waste, as we're going out of town in a few days. I had everything I needed, ex..."

"God bless you, Graybert, for submitting this recipe. It was just what I was looking for. I ordered Applebee's Oriental Chicken Salad in KY last Friday for the first time, and it was love at first bite! (Pardon the pun. "I must make this salad when we get home," I told my husband, but the problem was finding a recipe that approximated Applebee's..."

"God Bless you, PotPie for submitting this recipe! I wanted to make Applebee's Oriental Chicken Salad (#19253for our dinner tonight, but I didn't want to prepare the chicken breasts, fried in batter. Your recipe was just what I was looking for. I heated 2 Tbls. of Canola oil in an iron skillet, set a splatter screen around the skillet; dried th..."

"I can't praise your Leek and Potato Soup recipe enough, Tara. Es delicioso! It's a favorite at our house. I never had leeks when I was growing up, but since I've discovered how good they are, I buy them often. And when I do, it's usually to make your soup. I double all of the ingredients when I make it, so we can enjoy it several times before it's..."

"I used your recipe today, Trinkets for our Sunday dinner. I followed it exactly, except my chicken was about twice the weight of the one called for in your recipe. I roasted it for an hour at the 450F temperature; then I turned the oven down to 400F and roasted it for at least another hour. The chicken's skin gave me my clue for when it was read..."
