Chicken and Dumplings from Scratch Cooking Light, DECEMBER 2005 This was really good. I made the dumplings a little bigger than called for so they needed to cook a little longer turning in the middle of the cooking time. I think I took this for lunch the rest of the week. The chicken was just enough, the broth just thick enough, and the perfect amount of veggies. It's on the make again list definitely!!

Fiesta Turkey Soup With Green Chile Biscuits
Fiesta Turkey Soup With Green Chile Biscuits Southern Living, NOVEMBER 2004 No, we didn't make the biscuits. The soup was FANTASTIC! I took for lunch a few times that week, too. All the veggies, the beans, and we put LOTS of turkey in it made for a very hearty and spicy soup. I would DEFINITELY make this one again!!

Bouillabaisse
Bouillabaisse Cooking Light, JUNE 1995 There's no picture for this recipe. I TOTALLY did NOT read the directions before I put this one on the menu. It's made in the microwave! What's up with that?? I DID NOT make it in the micro. I sauteed the onions in the olive oil. Then I cooked the potatoes in the clam juice, wine and tomato paste until they were done. I added the rest of the spices less the fennel seeds (just not a HUGE fan of them) and let it simmer for about 5 minutes. Then I added the … [Read more...]
Colonel Benjamin’s Curry Chicken
Colonel Benjamin's Curry Chicken Cooking Light, OCTOBER 2003 Well, I didn't really follow this recipe to a T. I am one of the fortunate people to have ACTUAL masala from India. Thank you, Mrs G! Her mother sent some back and I got a little baggie of delicious smelling heaven that is known as masala. Similar to curry, but is a usually a variance in blends depending on household, village, region, etc. Kind of the like barbecue sauce in the States. I substituted all the spice except … [Read more...]
Beef Daube Provençal
Beef Daube Provençal Cooking Light, SEPTEMBER 2007 So, I'm not really making this per the directions. I did put it in my slow cooker, but then I added about 2 cups of baby bella mushrooms, used dried thyme instead of fresh, added 4 cups of water to cover the veggies in the cooker, and added about 2 T quick cooking tapioca to thicken it. It needed more than that to thicken it. I only had whole wheat flour on hand and didn't think you could make a slurry out of THAT for stew. It was DELICIOUS! I … [Read more...]
Beef Goulash
Beef Goulash Cooking Light, MARCH 2006 We made this recipe last night. We didn't follow the directions to a T because, seriously, 2+ hours?? I don't think so. I think it's something I would convert to a slow cooked recipe, though. So, we followed the directions to the point where you cook the stew WITHOUT the potatoes. We skipped that step and added the potatoes right away and simmered it for 1 1/2 hours. Granted the meat probably wasn't as tender as it would have been if we followed the … [Read more...]
African Chicken in Spicy Red Sauce
African Chicken in Spicy Red Sauce Cooking Light, OCTOBER 2006 Okay, so there are A LOT of spices in this one, but if you do ANY kind of baking AT ALL you have them on hand anyway. I keep that Berbere in my pantry ready to go for the next round. The first time I made this, I omitted the wine. Tasted fine and the sauce was thicker. The second time I made it, I used a dry white wine. The sauce was thinner and for some reason it was hotter this time. We used chicken breasts the second time … [Read more...]
