Broccoli Salad

I made this for a quick Monday night dinner...it was a hit with both the adults and children. I mistakenly omitted the salt and pepper due to running back and forth from the kitchen to the computer, but it wasn't missed. I did shred the cheese and added a drizzle of agave to the mayo mix for a little more sweetness. Because I wasn't sure if everyone would like raw broccoli, I did blanch the broccoli and chilled it in an ice bath than put it in the salad spinner to remove the extra water. This is definitely a dish I would make again...great recipe.

City Ham

I made this recipe for Easter and everyone, including the little kids enjoyed it. The recipe was easy to follow, however, I did not put the ginger snaps on since another review said it would get mushy when served as leftovers. The leftovers tasted great in my lima bean soup.

This recipe is ideal for cooks who may be trying their hand for the first time at making an Easter ham ( this was my first time). As I perfect my technique, I'm hoping to get the crust to be a tad bit firmer.

Curry Goat

This is one of the best curry goat recipes I've tried. What makes it unique from others is the lime juice that gets rubbed on the meat. The taste remains on the meat throughout the simmering and adds just the right zing. I think the best recipes are those that don't need much modification and this one was great as written. It produces a stew with a good consistency...not too thick or thin, and with tons of flavor. This recipe is rated intermediate on the website...but is uncomplicated enough for someone who considers themselves beginner level to try.
