Skillet Lasagne

Mar 19, 2012
Cookbook: The Best 30-Minute Recipe
Rating: 5/5

I probably make this at least once a month it's such a favorite with my family. I usually use all ground beef and jarred tomato sauce. I think it is so much easier than regular l...

Cookbook: Jamie's Food Revolution: Rediscover How to Cook Simple, Delicious, Affordable Meals
Rating: 2/5

I really wanted to try this recipe once I bought this cookbook. A cake with fudge in it? C'mon! After hunting down some fudge, I was excited to try it out. I found it hard to t...

Cookbook: Jamie's Food Revolution: Rediscover How to Cook Simple, Delicious, Affordable Meals
Rating: 2/5

Sure it's quick, but it's not that good. I would rather put in a little more effort and have a really tasty cake. Or, the mug cake on mel's kitchen cafe (a great blog) is quite d...

Granola

Cookbook: Jamie's Food Revolution: Rediscover How to Cook Simple, Delicious, Affordable Meals
Rating: 5/5

This is my most used recipe from this cookbook. It's easy, versatile, and delicious. I usually make mine with almonds and pecans, but I have thrown in small amounts of pistachios...

Baked Creamy Leeks

Cookbook: Jamie's Food Revolution: Rediscover How to Cook Simple, Delicious, Affordable Meals
Rating: 2/5

Maybe I don't love leeks enough to eat this much of them on their own. I found the texture unappetizing-- maybe cooking the leeks a little longer than the time stated would help.

A Cracking Burger

Mar 19, 2012
Cookbook: Jamie's Food Revolution: Rediscover How to Cook Simple, Delicious, Affordable Meals
Rating: 5/5

This is my go-to burger recipe. I use "water" crackers (I think "cream crackers" must be a British thing), and 1 tsp. of regular mustard instead of the Dijon he calls for. I usua...

Light and Fluffy Rice

Mar 19, 2012
Cookbook: Jamie's Food Revolution: Rediscover How to Cook Simple, Delicious, Affordable Meals
Rating: 1/5

I was hopeful that this would work as the method seemed easy. Unfortunately, it was not done in the expected time, so I had to furiously boil it at the last minute as everything e...

Chicken Tikka Masala

Mar 19, 2012
Cookbook: Jamie's Food Revolution: Rediscover How to Cook Simple, Delicious, Affordable Meals
Rating: 3/5

The flavour of this chicken tikka masala is very close to the butter chicken I have to order every time we go out for Indian. However, I found the sauce far too watery. I would h...

My Sweet and Sour Pork

Mar 19, 2012
Cookbook: Jamie's Food Revolution: Rediscover How to Cook Simple, Delicious, Affordable Meals
Rating: 3/5

I find it strange that Jamie's stir fry recipes only serve 2. I usually just double everything and the cooking times still seem to work for the most part. I did not serve this on...

Cookbook: Jamie's Food Revolution: Rediscover How to Cook Simple, Delicious, Affordable Meals
Rating: 3/5

This is a nice, fast weeknight meal. I did not put in the mint (would have a revolt on my hands from the kids). It is a little expensive to make as it calls for 6 oz. of Parmesan...
