5 More Recipes with the help of my friends

It's great to have friends when you need them, especially, at a crunch time like this. Well we have five more recipes tried and tested and the results are good.

My friend Colleen, who is an excellent cook, made the Green Bean, Broccoli and sSnow Pea Medley pg 100. She described it as having an Asian flair with crisp vegetables and rated it V+++. She also called it very Yummy!

My friend Sue, another great cook, made the Hanoi Noodle Soup on pg 40. She said it was fantastic and a total surprise as to how good it was, especially, without meat!
"The portobellos make a warm dark brown broth and it tastes rich and meaty without meat!" She rated it a "definite V+++!"

Sue also made the Jicama, Grapefruit Salad pg 42. She commented that it was easy to make with big bang flavor. A delightful salad! It received the V+++ rating as well.

I made the Black Bean Salad pg 19 and much to my surpise(considering some of the ingredients like gherkin pickles, black beans etc)it was a wonderful intertwining of flavors that kept my taste buds hoppin' and colors that kept my eyeballs poppin'. Rating V++.

Dried Fruit compote was another dish I prepared today. It is easy and very different
We all enjoyed it although it wasn't nearly as thrilling as most of Bill's recipes therefore i gave it just a V.

  1. Be sure to ask each of them if there was one thing wrong with the recipe, a mispelled word, a missing word, a missing part of the sentence. Oh my, what a botch that was on the recipe we did Saturday night. See you Friday night. Around 10:30pm.
