I have used a very similar recipe for some time. I do not use liquid at all (or any roe), but do mix in some sour cream to loosen it up and add tabasco and very finely chopped onion. Always a big hit!
I am not sure this is the exact recipe I used last year for my dressing, but it was not hard to estimate how much broth to add, (just add enough to make it moist, not runny!) and it turned out perfect! It saved room in my oven, and no one realized it came out of a crock pot instead of the turkey! Fabulous!!
I have made something similar for years. I usually use parmesan cheese and add some chopped garlic and sun dried tomatoes. Very tasty!
This was a wonderful, fresh addition to our summer meal. I would omit the raisins next time (just didn't seem to work with the other flavors), but loved everything else. Easy to make and delish!
This was delicious! I think the marinade might work nicely with salmon or chicken also. Next time I will marinate for a little longer than 1 hour though. Update: I have used this recipe repeatedly since my first review. It is easy, but I ALWAYS marinate for at least 5 hours, even overnight, and it comes out great! sometimes I don't grill them, but just saute them and they're just as delicious.
This was a very tasty marinade. We had cut up stew meat (very inexpensive), so I was looking for a marinade to add flavor and tenderize the meat. I skewerd the beef with onions, peppers, and mushrooms and grilled them, basting the skewers as they cooked. It was delicious! I think next time I will try a little more of the "martini" and a little less of the "BBQ sauce" though, as it totally overwhelmed any "martini" taste! but thanks for a great idea!
OK, a "son who loves peas" -- let's talk about THAT! Good job! My mom made a pea salad with cheese cubes, green olives and walnuts which is one of my favorites, but this is just different enough to make it into the rotation. Thanks!
Good beginning. I would eliminate the bell pepper, use 1/2 the tomato paste, and add a couple of dried red chili peppers and a bay leaf as well as increasing the basil, oregano & garlic. I like my sauce with a little more bite, and a little less tomato flavor. Letting the sauce simmer for awhile longer helps those flavors meld also (at least 30-45 minutes). Veal is delicious, but turkey & beef more economical and still very tasty. I say use what you have or feel you can afford. Top the whole thing with some nice grated parmesan. Great meal!
Definately cook your spinach first! I think that was the problem with the tortillas falling apart -- too much liquid! Also, if you heat your totillas slightly in the microwave before rolling them they will be much easier to handle and not tear so easily. I like the recipe, but will also add some other veggies to it next time - onions, mushrooms, beans and maybe corn. I had never thought to use spinach in enchiladas before.
This is an old, family recipe. I have been eating this for Thanksgiving since I was a baby! While it is not fancy or in any way wow-inducing compared to some of the recipes on this site, it is my idea of comfort food. It is a lovely side for a meal, easy to prepare, and just about everyone likes it. what more do you want? Tradition at its finest!
I love avocados and maybe because I was expecting it to taste like avocados, I was disappointed. I made this for a gathering of lady friends and we all agreed it was more like a creamy key lime pie than avocado. You probably need the lemon juice to keep the avocado green, but it overpowers the delicate avocado taste. Good, just not enough avocado flavor. Maybe more avocado, less juice? Not sure.
it was good, but nothing I would rave about and not really worth the extra work or calories.
