Quick to mix up, not too sweet, but with nuggets of chocolate goodness from the chocolate chips. The batter had seemed too thin to me, but do not fear - they baked up nicely. Our were done after 23 minutes (not the full 25), and might have benefit from even shorter cooking. Very little oil added, so for a muffin, not horrid nutrition.

Good vegetable taste, but not so much ratatouille-like.
I had trouble reading this recipe and understanding what I was supposed to do. I am impatient as a cook, wanting to do the cooking more than reading the lesson plan.
Don't forget to add the Parmesan cheese - it really adds a good flavor note.

Chocolate pudding cake is my go-to recipe for a low-fat family dessert. When google led me to this recipe - which includes malt - I was giddy with excitement.
This recipe is a bit richer than others - it includes 2T butter and an egg white. Other than that, it went together in the typical way. Do read through the recipe completely, though, because the brown sugar needs to be divided. Chocolate malt powder is added to the cake part, as well as mixed in with the boiling water.
I used Ovaltine Chocolate Malt from the regular grocery store - but isn't there a better source of malt? My sister suggested King Arthur Flour's malt.
The malt added a really nice touch. I forgot the vanilla (dope slap), and so when I try it again, and make it correctly, the rating may well rise.

I love roasted cauliflower, but wanted something a bit different. This recipe is quick - a vegetable oil (canola), shredded fresh ginger, mustard seed, tumeric, salt and pepper mix is spread over the cauliflower, roasted, and baked for about 25 minutes.
This tasted so good it was almost my whole dinner. The tumeric turned it a lovely yellow color. This is elegant enough for any dinner.
Note that the recipe calls for a jalapeno pepper, but we skipped it as I am a spice wimp.

Crunchy, and I like the flavor that comes with the addition of smoked paprika. It was also amazing to see the leaves shrivel and get truly crunchy. This is something I want to like.
If you love kale, then you'd really enjoy these. I like cooked kale, but these chips taste like kale smells, only with a smoky flavor.
I have a weekly meeting where one person brings food (journal club). This will be one of the items I bring - the others are very junk-food oriented, and I look forward to the amused horror that will show on their faces.
Maybe mid-summer kale is stronger, and I should try preparing these using kale grown in cook temperatures?
