Reviewed Korean-Style Marinated Skirt Steak with Grilled Scallions and Warm Tortillas

"Very good and easy. Leave out the tortillas though if you really want "healthy" as each tortilla (whole wheat or other is about 120 calories. The marinade was very good reduced as another reviewer suggested served over rice."

Reviewed Irish Soda Bread

"My family thought this bread was very good but a little too sweet to be served at dinner. Next time I would reduce the sugar to 1/2 cup as others have suggested. I like to try most recipes as written the first time and then evaluate any possible changes, but that being said, I did leave out the caraway seeds as I do not like the taste. The bread w ..."

Reviewed Apple Cake "Tatin"

Reviewed Pasta Ponza

"OOOOOOHHH this is SOOOOO good! Everyone loved it and the flavors were great together.I'm sure I added extra capers,(love them!and did not reserve any pasta water-I just didn't drain the pasta too dry.

Reviewed Chicken-and-Cheese Enchiladas

"This was just okay though with some tweaking it should improve. The tomatillo sauce was bland and "flat" tasting. Next time I will use more serranos, add some garlic and puree some cilantro in the sauce. I will also add a small amount of the sauce to the filling so it's not so dry."

"This is an easy and delicious meatless entre. I hate goat cheese so I used feta instead and also substituted fresh basil for the mint and used lots of veggies."
