Spiced Pumpkin Oatmeal : page 1

I find that my day is just better when I have oatmeal for breakfast. Plain steel cut oats cooked in the pressure cooker is what I have most days. This recipe makes me feel extra special. I do make some changes -- steel cut oats, cook in pressure cooker, no agave because the raisins make it sweet enough -- but I'm still giving this 5 stars because of the inspiration. The dried cranberries used in this recipe give it an extra sweet-tart zing. Yummy.

udon noodle salad : page 1

This is described as a lowfat sub for pad thai with a Japanese twist. I would make it again. Only craved the missing peanuts and fried tofu a little bit. Coworkers complemented the the nice appearance with different colored veggies included.

White Bean and Piquillo Pepper Spread : page 158

I'm not sure it's fair to rate this recipe because I really messed it up. But the reason for that is that it makes way too much spread for just me (or even me and my spouse together) to eat, even over a few days. It calls for two cans of white beans. So I used one can, but then I forgot to halve the other ingredients. Oops! The consistency was thin (more dip than spread) and taste way too smokey with a sharp raw garlic bite. In retrospect, I'm not sure a smokey tasting spread is really my thing, so it's not high on my list to try again.
