"Very good! I've never had Thai green curry before and was very impressed with this recipe. I used Thai Kitchen brand of green curry paste and it wasn't too spicy. Make sure to serve with lots of basmati rice to soak up all of the delicious sauce!"

"this recipe was simple and incredibly delicious. As mentioned before, just start in the morning and when you get home you have perfectly cooked and seasoned chicken. Great for enchiladas, burritos, tacos, or whatever!”
-Victoria
"I'm not vegetarian but have been trying to cut down on meat consumption; I've found that all the vegetarian chilis I've tried taste like they're lacking something. Not this one.”
-meridangola
“This is by far the BEST turkey I've ever made and eaten. The rest of the family thought so too. I strained the liquid and made about two cups of the best turkey gravy ever.”
-Nathans Nana
"By Indian cooking standards, this recipe delivers an authentic taste. Both myself and my Indian wife were quite pleased with the results, although by personal preference I'd recommend a couple of changes: cut down the vinegar, add a little brown sugar, and add some salt. This one's a winner in our household!"
-Replicator
"I put all of the ingredients in the slow-cooker just before I went to bed. I woke up to the wonderful aroma!! The chicken was so moist it fell apart. I packed it for husband to take to work for lunch. He ended up calling me at my job just to say how good it was and how everyone who had a taste loved it!”
-DaisyH
"I love this recipe! I've made it six or seven times in the last couple of months, and it's tons of fun to play with! I'll halve the lentils and add brown rice, or add extra veggies or play with the spices, and it's amazing every time.”
-Chef Kirsten 1
"Delicious and dead easy to make. I gave samples to three people at work and they each wanted the recipe, which is always a good sign. I made the recipe exactly as written (with all optional spices), and it's hot, but not annoyingly so to my palate.”
-stingo
"Amazing recipe! I made this in the Instant Pot and it was some of the best carnitas we've ever had."
-DeliciousAsItLooks

-ron.reeder

-Bonnie G 2
“I made this for dinner last night. I added the marinade in with the cooking liquid (I used low sodium beef stock). It was absolutely delicious — so tender and perfect with gluten free naan.”
-Liesl G.

-rayzerli
"This Chili was delicious! I couldn't find barley malt, so I substituted molasses. It was still very, very good. This is one of the few recipes that tastes best just like it is.”
-gezapoosba
“What have I been missing? So fast, easy and peels like a dream. The perfect texture with no rubbery feel or that dreaded gray, green circle around the yolks. 3 minutes to the perfect hard boiled eggs."
-Bonnie G 2
"Loved this simple recipe for the Instant Pot. It was delicious!"
-Jonathan Melendez

-Jonathan Melendez

-jorowe38
"So delicious! I didn't have savory, but it was great without it."
-DianaEatingRichly

-toohot4u

-Steph_2boys
"I did this recently and it worked out wonderfully. I keep my beans whole in case I need them for chili or baked beans instead of refried beans. I use my food processor to mash them up for refried beans. Delicious, easy and cheap."
-viviansmomma
"This is excellent and tastes great. I usually find that my cooking tastes amateur, but this is a good recipe. I would serve this to company any day with total confidence.”
-emerald_450
"We really enjoyed this healthy soup! I added some zucchini and even some cauliflower left over from a veggie tray.”
-Clarely
“The best oatmeal I've ever had. I add cranberries and chopped walnuts to my bowl. I put it in bowls in the fridge and take one each morning to work. To heat, I just add milk and microwave for two minutes. My husband raves about this oatmeal.”
-chocolit30
"What an interesting recipe! I made this last night, and it was so easy to put together. Tasted wonderful! I will make this often!"
-yooper
"I don't use my pressure cooker enough and with recipes like this, that will change! This is a good, basic recipe (and method) that would lend itself well to additions, like mushrooms or pearl onions.”
-Outta Here
“This morning I made some corn bread and was thinking, “you can't eat corn bread without chili.” So, this is what I came up with.”
-Chef Joey Z.
"Hummus is one of my favorites! There is nothing like homemade, creamy, healthy hummus — Just Delicious!”
-Judy_SKF
"I cooked this last night for my family using my pressure cooker for the first time. I increased the garam masala, coriander and lemon juice and also added half a teaspoon of chili powder.”
-hkimura
"I love, love, love this! I have made it twice this month from fresh tomatoes and other CSA goodies — the first time I made it as written, and the second with a few little tweaks. Both times I got enough for three meals, and my freezer is now full of healthful and delicious sauce that my kids gobble down without a second thought.”
-smellyvegetarian
“It’s very rich with a sort of thick tomato broth, which seemed to please the children. Hearty, tasty and ridiculously easy. Very enjoyable, and I look forward to the leftovers tomorrow.”
-magpie diner
"I go to Weight Watchers so I really appreciate this version of vegetable soup. When I make it I wind up throwing things in that I have left over. It is a wonderful soup. My husband takes it with him for his lunch each day. It's the best vegetable soup I've eaten."
-Lois R.
"The recipe was fantastic, and I have a very skeptical and picky group of eaters. The sauce was awesome. I liked the red pepper flakes at the end, especially. Don't forget to add the garlic with the onions as this step is left out. The chicken was fall apart tender. I am adding this to my regular rotation of recipes."
-Buffalo John
“I made it pretty much exactly according to the recipe, and it got rave reviews all around. I really liked the flavour the balsamic vinegar added. I will certainly be making this again! (and it was really easy, too).”
-pollen
“Delicious! The lentils were soft and the apricots did seem to disappear. The consistency was pretty thick, almost like a stew, but I prefer that anyway (more stays on my spoon). I loved the mix of spices, and the turmeric gave it a nice color. This was super easy. I'll be sure to make it often.”
-Yogi8
"The only thing I did differently with this recipe was that I shredded the chicken while still in the slow cooker before adding the cream cheese. It was delicious! This will become a staple food at my house."
-honeofakind
“This is a good one and very forgiving when adapted. I used chicken tenders (instead of legs) and chopped garlic because that is what I had on hand. I also did not measure the spices just sprinkled them over the top of the pieces.”
-bshemyshua
“I used extra broth (six cups) and less rice (1/4 cup), and it was still nice and thick. Use a good quality (organic) vegetable broth if possible.”
-yogiclarebear
"Wow! Great beans and potatoes! I loved the fresh green beans, and the sauce was full of flavor. I layered some sliced ham on top of the mixture for about the last hour of cooking and had a one-pot delicious meal.”
-lauralie41
"This is a nice lentil recipe but found that the carrots cooked too much. Next time I will add the carrots near the end so that they will be a little crunchy and not soft."
-I_love2nurse in Can
"This was wonderful. I did have to change it a little because of time constraints. I put the whole pork roast in the slow cooker mixed the sauce ingredients substituting green chilies for the jalapeños (we're wimps). I also added two tablespoons of taco seasoning to the sauce mixture. I just poured it over the roast and set it for eight hours on low. It was perfect! Came home shredded it and voila! Dinner was ready.”
-children from A to Z
"The is a great master recipe! It allows cooks some creativity (if desired), but is fabulous just as is. I made this using a whole chicken (approximately four pounds). I browned it on all sides after seasoning generously with salt and pepper. While it was browning, I popped the broth into the microwave then steeped a sprig of rosemary in the broth.”
-mbhupatrai
“I’m always on the lookout for new ways to use the pressure cooker. This is a great dish. I was going to give it four stars because I found the instructions to be too busy and they didn't say what to do with the spinach and cilantro (I just dumped them in with everything else), but the flavor of this and the final product rated more than a five, so it balanced out. Will be making this again.”
-Outta Here
"This sauce is so delicious and so easy. It has just the right amount of seasoning and consistency. I don't think I can ever buy jarred marinara again!"
