New Issue No. 96 November/December 2012

[Mare749]

Arrived today. Only did a quick scan, but found a couple of recipes that I will want to try: Seared Scallops with apple-raisin sauce and Curried Polenta, Hot Pepper Jelly, Butternut Squash and Sausage Cannelloni with Arugula & Fig Salad, Tuscan Pork Loin Roast, and Alfajores, which are Dulce de Leche Sandwich Cookies.

Hmmm, curried polenta sounds interesting. Made polenta last weekend for the first time in ages, don't know why I don't do it more often. We both love it.

Got the issue today. I'm glad I renewed my subscription now. I was disappointed in the last issue but this one looks promising. I'd like to try:

Roasted game hens with herb butter (I would use bone-in skin-on chicken breasts.
Winter Vegetable Trio
Tenderloin Tips with mushroom cream sauce
Orange Buttermilk Panna Cotta (this has Blane's name all over it)
Pesto Cheese Stuffed Shells (I think we will make this this weekend as I've been wanting to make stuffed shells ever since Erin mentioned it recently)
Butternut Squash & Sausage Cannelloni
Cherry Almond Turnover Cookies
Homemade Breakfast Sausage Patties
Slow Cooker Beef Brisket w/Cilantro Chimichurri
Orange Coconut Shrimp

Sorry, but it's a "Meh" book again for me. I showed the Hubby the "Wilted Kale with Garlic" recipe and although he truly wants to try Kale, wilted is not the state he wants.

But the Tuscan Pork Loin looks like a do, I'd just have to halve it for us.

There are two ways to do kale - wilted, or cook the crap out of it. LOL.

Well said, Trixxee

Nothing here, yet.

Trixxee, I like several you mentioned. I will have to check my box tomorrow!

[Cubangirl]

Have you tried Kale chips?

This is a post from Barbara -

"Just got the new issue! They say on the cover that there's 16 years of issues available now - the first issue premiered in Jan/Feb 1997!

Will be looking through it for new ideas.

I was going to make this a sticky, but wouldn't we want to start it with reviews since this one is already one page long - it'll end up being a long sucker. ?????
