  1. I used a large roasting chicken and baked it at 350. An hour or so before it was done I added PEELED yukon gold potatoes (cut as directed, they soak up the juice better peeled I found)and large carrots (cut into 4 big pieces). I also cut the olive oil in 1/2 to save some calories. Was terrific and SO easy. One pan cleanup too!
     
  2. I used small whole red potatoes instead of cutting up larger ones. Baked at 350 and added a little parsley for color. Absolutely delicious.
     
  3. I was recommended this and it was delicious.
     
  4. Before I try this recipe, it would be helpful to know the oven temperature that you would suggest. My guess is 350 degrees ( F) .

Hey Everyone! Greetings from Sunny Singapore! I'm am so glad to have found this site. It is waaaayyy better than other sites I've been. I have about 240 cookbooks and my faves are the older cookbooks I got from my mom as I prefer from scratch cooking. I have created several cookbooks dedicated to the use of eggs. I have come across a number of recipes requests for using up lots of eggs. So there they are. http://www.recipezaar.com/members/home/123897/Backtattoos.jpg The above is a picture of me at my office's Annual Christmas cum costume party. I won first prize with that orange costume! The one with the (fake) Tattoos was taken in Dec 2007 when I again won first prize. I love spicy food and the many different kinds of chilli dips different foods calls for!! Love baking, cross stitching, trying my hand now in shoe beading and patchwork and now doing a course on aromatherapy. Oh and am now trying to raise a flower and herb garden but it is not easy as I am a newbie at that too! In some of my recipes, you will note that there is a letter in brackets at the beginning of the name. This is what it means : (A) : Aromatherapy/Homeopathic/Less toxic I'm not crazy about recipes using pre-mix cakes as I am a more from-scratch person. My recipes will have the local name (when applicable) as well as the anglicised name, eg "Au Nee (Sweet Yam Paste). If I had a month off, I'd be in Texas.
