Notes about Recipes in this book

• Chicken and mushroom panini

  • Delys77 on January 26, 2021

    The concept is good but there is too little cheese and sauce. I would with at least twice as much mayo/tomato/caper, othewise this sandwich is very dry. I wouldn't repeat.

• Seafood arrabbiata

  • Dannausc on February 12, 2023

    Good, quick, and easy. My wife liked it so much she wanted me to make it again the following week.

• Brussels sprouts salad with warm bacon vinaigrette

  • hillsboroks on January 12, 2015

    This was a lovely change of pace with Brussels sprouts. I was cooking for two and had just enough sprouts to make half a recipe. Instead of using the food processor I cut them into thin shreds with a sharp knife. I decide to forego the additional romaine lettuce because of time and because the "sprout" slaw looked like more than enough for two. The flavor was fresh and tangy with a hint of sweet from the maple syrup. A definite winter repeat.

• Buttermilk-Parmesan mashed potatoes

  • Christine on June 18, 2015

    Made with skin-on, chopped red potatoes which I steamed. There was too much liquid using both milk and buttermilk -- start with the buttermilk and add more milk if needed to reach the consistency you like. Also added extra cheese, because why not?

• Chickpea and winter vegetable stew

  • Dannausc on February 12, 2023

    Good. Worth a repeat.
