Quinoa and Crescenza with Sautéed Mushrooms from Super Natural Cooking: Five Delicious Ways to Incorporate Whole and Natural Foods into Your Cooking

Decent. Definitely filling, just not that creative of a recipe. I could come up with this myself - add some onion and mushrooms to quinoa... it tasted fine, but it didn't rock my world or anything. read more >

Artisan Bread in Five Minutes a Day: The Discovery That Revolutionizes Home Baking

By Jeff Hertzberg MD, Zoe Francois
Thomas Dunne Books - 2007

Buttermilk Bread : page 207

This one is just OK. It only needs to be baked 30 minutes, not 45 - that was way too long. The final product is not nearly as good as the master boule bread.

Master Recipe - Boule : page 16

This recipe is exceedingly simple. Just mix it and leave it awhile. Mine didn't rise that much but produced excellent bread anyway. Highly recommended as the starting point to cooking with this book. I recommend the Dutch Oven cooking method.

I've also used it to make pizza dough & it turned out great that way as well!
