	Homemade Applesauce From: The Barefoot Contessa Cookbook (reviewed 16th January 2010) Very easy and very tasty. One drawback, it takes 1 1/2 hours to cook in the oven, but it makes alot and lasts for weeks.
	Homemade Granola From: The Barefoot Contessa Cookbook (reviewed 29th January 2010) Another member had problems with this recipe, but I loved it. I have made this recipe many times and it always came out perfect. My cooking time was about 40 to 45 minutes. The combination of fruit was also a winner but sometimes I leave the figs out.
	Lamb Sausage in Puff Pastry From: The Barefoot Contessa Cookbook (reviewed 30th January 2010) A gourmet version of "pigs in a blanket". You can use any kind of thin fresh sausage and store bought puff pastry and it would be delicious.
	Pan-fried onion dip From: The Barefoot Contessa Cookbook (reviewed 29th January 2010) Remember the onion dip from a box, well this is so much better. Easy to make and tasty. Brings back childhood memories.
	Roasted Brussels Sprouts From: The Barefoot Contessa Cookbook (reviewed 29th January 2010) You really don't need a recipe for brussels sprouts, but Ina gives you good guidelines for roasting any vegetable. Even if you don't like brussels sprouts, give this recipe a try. they are very tasty.
	Roasted eggplant spread From: The Barefoot Contessa Cookbook (reviewed 10th January 2010) Simple and easy.Good healthy appetizer. Many friends have requested the recipe.
	Sugar Snap Peas with Sesame From: The Barefoot Contessa Cookbook (reviewed 29th January 2010) Very simple recipe, only three ingredients, sugar snap peas, dark sesame oil, and black sesame seeds. Combine them together and serve at room temperature.
	Szechuan noodles From: The Barefoot Contessa Cookbook (reviewed 16th January 2010) I made this recipe with asian salmon, a very nice dinner combination. It seems like alot of ingredients but it goes together quickly in the food processor. Add the sauce at the last minute because it makes the pasta turn mushy. the flavors are really good.
	Vegetable Coleslaw From: The Barefoot Contessa Cookbook (reviewed 30th January 2010) Easy to make and has more flavor than traditional coleslaw.
