Howdy Trudy
Partner discovered your recipe a couple of months ago. We have made it a dozen times already. We love it. It also featured at the boxing day lunch and the family all wanted the recipe as well.
Thanks for posting

Comment on Salmon Risotto with Dill & Lemon (plus, how to prevent RSI) by Gabi

Can you make risotto with other types of rice as well? I like the no-stir version you have! I’m from Romania, and we have a similar no-stir version for polenta, where we dump everything in, let it cook, and stir at the end. I just bought a RiceSelect blend with brown and red rice, and barley and rye, and wanted to try a mushier-type rice with it, like risotto. I’m not sure if it will work, but arborio rice is so expensive (not to mention less nutritional because it’s white) and I don’t care for the risotto to be “just right”…

This recipe worked a treat. I used fresh salmon so added it a couple of minutes sooner.

I made this cous cous dish for a BBQ I went to on Saturday. It was really delicious and it had all been eaten as soon as it was put on the table. I am now making another batch for lunches as I write this. Thank you for a truly delicious recipe.

I absolutely love Asian cuisine! I usually go out to enjoy something like this, however I wanted to take a try at making it myself for dinner. This dish looks so delicious, so I’m very excited to try it out! I hope it comes out great!

Comment on Lemon-Rosemary Infused Potato Salad with Roasted Garlic Mayonnaise by Lynn

I saw the lemon infused potatoes above and simply had to try them. I used red potatoes and replaced the rosemary with dried greek seasoning i had on had. This was so good!! The lemon adds a nice tartness while the garlic and mayo adds a nice flavor without being overpowering. This is the first recipe I’ve tried on this sight and I’m looking forward to trying many others. What i enjoy about your recipes is that many are simple to prepare and quite often with things i have on hand. I’m being forced to learn to prepare my favorite foods at home because the Mediterranean and Asian places I enjoy eating at aren’t exactly low cost. This way i get to enjoy my favorite foods and keep quite a bit of money in my pocket.
(By the way, I added the potatoes to a meal of baked chicken breast and steamed broccoli. I do believe i hit the ball out of the park with this meal. My hubby will be pleased.

I’m going to try this with quinoa – I usually make Moroccan salad with couscous but trying to go more and more gluten-free. I’m also subbing cilantro for parsley for an extra kick.. and because I have it!

Thanks!
The chickpeas are a great addition to the traditional Moroccan Couscous Salad. I also prepare the same recipe replacing couscous with Quinoa, which cooks just as easy )

Made this for part of our Christmas feasting – made a double serve. Here is how it went…

Xmas Eve – Taken as our contribution to a 20 person dinner party – the vegetarian guests were relieved to have something sooo yummy and NOT Another Green Salad (NAGS) (I used vegetarian cubes for the stock)

Xmas Day – dished up to my family as one of the salads for easing the ham down with. More happy folks….

Boxing Day – final left overs were dished up at more friends’ annual Boxing Day Picnic. They were unhappy we had not brought more…

YUM!!!!
