Let me share what has be happening in the kitchen:
1. Hummus, pg 5, rated just a V as Sam's dad, being Lebanese, gave me a far better Hummus recipe.
2. Grilled Avocado and Tomato pg 102, V++. The recipe calls for using a regular grill but since mine is under 2' of snow I used the broiler. The broiled avocado was heavenly and it made a picturesque looking, plated salad.
3. Raw Pumkin Pie pg 181, rated V+. Loren made this but used canned squash instead of the bad pumpkin I left for him to use (it looked good from the outside). So it was very tasty but not very appealing in appearance. I'll try again with fresh pumpkin.
4. Pie crust, pg 195, rated V++ as it was thin and delicious.
5.Popcorn, pg 195, V++. This is the best way to eat popcorn without all the bad stuff like salt and butter. Very tasty!
6. Foccacia, pg 165, rated V++. This is a great recipe. It makes two 14" rounds. I made the dough with the mashed potatoes and then Loren decked it out with tomatoes onions, garlic and spices. It was delicious and would be a fun to make for company.
More to come...................

Bill did his three. You can log them. He will look at the actual recipes in the book when we get home. I don't have a book with us. Unless you can scan those three and send them to me and we can work on them soon. It is 55 degrees here so far today (Gathersburg MD!
