Probably figured it out by now, but I always try to have on hand a package of black beans and rice (Vigo brand only), onions, and garlic. Make rice and beans as instructed. Add if you have onions garlic and balsamic vineger: Sautee onions in EEOO, add garlic. Add enough balsamic vinegar to...

boy am i glad somebody asked this question. i was wondering the same thing the other day in the grocery store. the only case in point i can think of is using baking soda instead of baking powder made sugarcookies like shortbread cookies. ugh. -p

Good advice all around. It's expensive but buying Smart Balance and using egg whites instead of eggs for whatever you can will help alot. Also--make sure you read those Lean Cuisine/Healthywhatever frozen lunches..some of them proport themselves to be healthy and they're really not. Other...

The stuffed tomatoes sound amazing...and Jacques Pepin is one of my favorite chefs so I think I'll have to try it.

NZDoug thanks for trying it out. What's a scotch steak by the way. That sounds good...steak and green beans. I'm so glad you enjoyed it! Desert Rose, can't wait to hear what you think. Jessica--I love feta cheese, but never know what to do with it...this was my first real attempt at cooking...

It's going to be a rainy day here in our Nation's capitol, so I'm making an easy tomato sauce I do a lot with a twist: 1 can tomatoes (whole preferably) 1 onion 3 cloves of garlic (I like garlic) 2 tablespoons EEOL 1 tbs oregano 1 1/2 tbs black pepper Seasoned or regular salt to taste Tonight I...

you can also add some lemon juice. that tends to counter salty-ness in foods.

I'm originally from Georgia so I only buy Vidallias ;o) but as for odor, it helps if you peel the first few layers off under a running tap if you don't do that already. Also lighting a match can help burn off some of the odor as well. a great use for onions is carmelizing them in balsamic...

speaking of bbq pizza, i always add garlic and onions and black pepper to the barbeque sauce i use. Sweet Baby Ray's is a personal favorite :)

Went on a weekend trip to a beach in delaware and stopped at a place called Elmer's Farmer's Market. Absolutely fantastic if you're ever on 404 heading to or from Rohoboth beach. Anyway, I got a ton of veggies and fruits...and need some ideas as to how to use two of them: Cherries (black)...

that's a good idea too. thanks licia!

Thanks guys. The bubbles were big and I think you're both right about the second layer being too close to the source. my batter ended up being pretty dense...almost like a brownie, but since i've never tried the recipe before, i don't exactly know what to expect. here it is for those...

thanks everybody! have posted in cakes and am confident will learn the answer to bubbly cake soon :) thanks everybody for all the nice welcomes!

What about sweet corn bread? Just add cinnamon (i would say probably 2-4 tbs depending on how much you're making) to practically any recipe. I use a ready-made mix called Jiffy available here in the US (maybe this is sacrelige for the real bakers here) but a little sweet corn bread and butter...

I have a question for the expert bakers out there... I made two layers and placed one on the bottom shelf of the oven (gas) and one on the top. The one on the bottom had bubbles in it when I took it out...is there a reason for this? Also any suggestions for making a more moist chocolate cake...

thanks doug...i am a miss :) definitely let me know what measurements you use...i kind of like to do everything by guestimate...which maybe doesn't make me the best recipe giver ever, but for this forum i will.. i suggest serving it some boiled potatoes (if you're a veg) or a steak...something...

that sounds really good...i'm going to have to try it. thanks fry boy. how much dried ginger would replace the minced ginger root?

thanks very much for the welcomes!

Thanks! Done! Hope you enjoy--let me know the measurements you end up using. KLP

Do Green Beans Count? Hello All, Seeing some great ideas up here. Do green beans count for this thread? Last night I threw this recipe together... I used fat free feta--wasn't so pleased with the texture but maybe someone else can try it with the real deal and let me know how it works out...

Hi Everybody, Was looking for a place like this as I'm teaching myself to cook...on a budget. :) Last weekend I made a cake and I actually have a question... I made two layers and placed one on the bottom shelf of the oven (gas) and one on the top. The one on the bottom had bubbles in it...
