Portland, Oregon

The City of Roses is known globally for its progressive urban planning – highly networked public transportation, integrated city parks, and sustainable mixed-use neighborhoods. Hometown to the creator of the Simpsons, visitors might recognize street names as inspiration for the show's characters – Flanders, LoveJoy, Quimby, Terwilliger, and Burnside. While Portland offers all the amenities of a flourishing city, it is the surrounding landscape and natural resources that bring to life the culinary flavor. A variety of berries, mushrooms, fish, duck, emu, and smaller game animals find their way into savory dishes and onto seasonally changing menus. Paired with local micro-brews and world-class pinot noirs, such abundance is best complimented with outdoor activities and neighborhood walks. If visiting in the summer, be sure not to miss the Saturday Market (open Sundays too). Discover the assortment of handmade crafts by regional artisans and treat yourself to an "Elephant Ear" classically prepared with cinnamon and sugar.

Delicious Pumpkin Bread

Reviewed on Oct. 2, 2008 by ANGELA43
Very tasty! I followed except for 2 tsp pumpkin pie spice and only 2 cups sugar. I left out nuts. I made one loaf and then added choc chips for muffins. Muffins cooked up in 20 minutes for me. Yum!

Chewy Chocolate Chip Oatmeal Cookies

Reviewed on Oct. 2, 2008 by COOKIN4FIVE05
I'm making these for a church event tomorrow but I goofed and was going to make the oatmeal choc. coconut chewy cookies instead which I made last week and were fabulous. I had added some nutmeg to these as I did the others as well and used milk choc. chips instead of semi-sweet which is the norm. but I loved the way they melted and tasted. The big thing was to make the cookies into bar form! I sprayed a 9x13 glass baking dish and spread the dough in that and baked aprox. 23 min. or until toothpick comes out without dough on it, only the melted chocolate! I didn't know how these were going to turn out but there isn't much of a difference in recipes. Now that i've tasted them, I have to be honest which is why we review, but I like the other cookie a bit better. These are good, just not as good as the ones i made last week.

Bruschetta Chicken Bake

Reviewed on Oct. 1, 2008 by ANGELA43
Very good recipe. I used 4 tomatoes from the garden and added 1 tbl balsamic vin. I marinated the chicken cubes in Italian dressing for 1 hour before draining and adding to the casserole. I highly recommend this one!
