on Nov 10th, 2009 at 2:59 pm
The turkey and roasted red Pepper meat loaf you made looked like a delicious Real Simple recipe!
on Nov 10th, 2009 at 2:59 pm
Sausage, Spinach, and Provolone Pizza since pizza is my favorite food!
on Nov 10th, 2009 at 3:00 pm

on Nov 10th, 2009 at 3:02 pm
Chili for a Crowd looks delicious! When you mentioned it in your Oct. 11th post I wrote down the recipe and am now waiting for “a crowd” to make it for. If I don’t have a “real” crowd soon, I may just have to make it for me!
on Nov 10th, 2009 at 3:02 pm
ooooh creamy rice w/ roasted shrimp!!! YUMMMMM. i love anything w/ shrimpies in it!
on Nov 10th, 2009 at 3:03 pm
Either the mac & cheese with cauliflower or the creamy rice and roasted shrimp!
on Nov 10th, 2009 at 3:04 pm
I can’t wait to make the chili for a crowd. I like the idea of using beer for added flavor. There’s nothing better on a cold winter night than chili and cornbread!
on Nov 10th, 2009 at 3:05 pm
definitely mac n cheese with cauliflower – a great idea i’d love to try!
on Nov 10th, 2009 at 3:05 pm

Macaroni and Cheese with Cauliflower. I remembered reading a post from you about this recipe. Looked it up last week, and made it. So good!
on Nov 10th, 2009 at 3:06 pm
I’ll always remember the Tuna and Chickpea Salad With Pesto you made. Ahh, tuna creeps me out but the bf LOVES pesto so we gave it a whirl!
on Nov 10th, 2009 at 3:06 pm
Sweet potato risotto! I still need to make that
Thanks.

Sweet potato risotto! I have been wanting to make that ever since you posted it!
on Nov 10th, 2009 at 3:07 pm
Those garlicy pinto beans are AWESOME! Maybe not for date night though
on Nov 10th, 2009 at 3:07 pm
I’ve made the creamy rice and shrimp dish that you made the other weekend from Real Simple – Loved it! They have really great/easy recipes but I dont always pick up the magazine so it would be awesome to have all the recipes in one place- this book looks great!
on Nov 10th, 2009 at 3:08 pm
I have made so many of the RS recipes you have put on here, they are all amazing..but I would say the best so far have been the Chili and the Last- Minute Lasagna! The Chili has been such a hit at numerous football parties and the lasagna has saved me so much time when I’ve needed to make dinner for a group on the fly
on Nov 10th, 2009 at 3:08 pm
chili! nothing better than a sunday spent with football and a delicious, quick chili.
on Nov 10th, 2009 at 3:09 pm

The Mediterranean Salad with Chickpea Patties looks so terrific. It is on the menu for later in the week!
on Nov 10th, 2009 at 3:10 pm
Real Simple is the best. You had me drooling over the Sausage, Spinach & Provolone Pizza, even if it had to be enjoyed on the run!
on Nov 10th, 2009 at 3:11 pm
Re: Sweet Potato Risotto: It’s a pretty awesome dish!!!
on Nov 10th, 2009 at 3:11 pm
The turkey and roasted red pepper meat loaf sounds great!

I loved that tuna, chickpea and pesto salad you made in September…it could have been the reminder to make pita chips though!
on Nov 10th, 2009 at 3:15 pm
The mac and cheese with cauliflower looked amazing. I have a mac and cheese addiction when I’ve had a bad day and am always on the look out for a healthier version!
on Nov 10th, 2009 at 3:15 pm
Sweet tater risotto. Looove sweet potatoes!
on Nov 10th, 2009 at 3:15 pm
I really like Real Simple’s Chili for Crowd (maybe better known as Mal’s chili), I’ve made it a few times without the meat. Beyond good. All of their recipes are incredible. Thanks for the chance to win the new cookbook. Hope all’s well!

This is an easy one….I have several of the recipes you’ve tried starred on my google reader… Creamy rice & Shrimp and the Tuna and Chickpea Salad with Pesto were the first two I found!
on Nov 10th, 2009 at 3:18 pm
The chickpea salad with pesto is a winner! My all time favorite Real Simple recipe is their Rosemary Chicken with Zucchini. I know it is on their website…you HAVE to try it, Tina. You would LOVE it!
on Nov 10th, 2009 at 3:18 pm
I loved the chili for a crowd recipe! I made it on Halloween, and it was great for the fall weather!
on Nov 10th, 2009 at 3:18 pm
I don’t even have to look…when you talked about Real Simple’s Last Minute Lasagna I HAD to try it…And now it’s become a staple.
A bonus one (that I also don’t even have to look up since once you mentioned it I had to make it and love it)…the garlicy pinto beans. Yum yum!!
on Nov 10th, 2009 at 3:19 pm
Creamy Rice with Roasted Shrimp for sure!!
on Nov 10th, 2009 at 3:19 pm
Chili for a crowd! So appropriate for this time of year!
on Nov 10th, 2009 at 3:19 pm
I love sweet potatoes – especially the ones from my cousin’s farm in AL which I have right now. Perfect by themselves, but since I also love Risotto – what a great fall combination!
on Nov 10th, 2009 at 3:19 pm
Tuna and chickpea salad w/ pesto looks so good!! Homemade pita chips looks YUMMY too! It probably is WAY economic than buying a bag of Stacey’s chips

I liked the Real Simple recipe – ‘Chili for A Crowd’ that you featured earlier this year that Mal likes to make
on Nov 10th, 2009 at 3:20 pm
Well my favorite Real Simple recipe would have to be the Macaroni and Cheese with Cauliflower. I can’t believe how amazing and EASY this recipe is – I haven’t made it in a while, so that might have to change!
on Nov 10th, 2009 at 3:21 pm
The mac n cheese with cauliflower was awesome! Had the magazine and made it right away.

I bet that cookbook is amazing. xoxo

on Nov 10th, 2009 at 3:28 pm
I’ve been missing for a while but this seems the perfect time to return! I would say the sausage, spinach and provolone pizza looks the best to me since I just made and posted a prosciutto, spinach and ricotta pizza that was out of this world. Provolone sounds delicious…
on Nov 10th, 2009 at 3:28 pm
Sweet Potato Risotto!!! um…..YUM! =)

on Nov 10th, 2009 at 3:29 pm
The garlicky pinto beans looked tasty! Unfortunately my roommate really doesn’t like garlic and we share most things, so I’ll have to find a way to make it when she isn’t around. Real Simple is such a great magazine!
on Nov 10th, 2009 at 3:29 pm
The Creamy Rice and Roasted Shrimp sounds delicious- you made it a few weeks ago I think. Anyway, I would LOVE to win this- I love Real Simple too!

on Nov 10th, 2009 at 3:35 pm
I LOVE chickpeas. And it looks as if Real Simple does too! And you too Tina!
So I would to have to go with any of the recipes that I have seen on your site that include chickpeas! Yay!
on Nov 10th, 2009 at 3:36 pm
I made the Tuna and Chickpea Salad with Pesto after I saw a picture on your blog. It was yummier than it looked.
Great giveaway!

I really want to try the Garlicky Pinto Beans! It looks like a great protein packed vegetarian recipe!
on Nov 10th, 2009 at 3:36 pm
If not for you I would never have tried the cauliflower mac and cheese, and it’s now become a staple in our house. Thanks!
on Nov 10th, 2009 at 3:36 pm
Last min lasagna!!! I love lasagna but not the hour plus it takes to prep it with all the mixing, cheese prep, boiling the noodles then cooking it. I would love a new recipe book.
on Nov 10th, 2009 at 3:36 pm
I think the Creamy Rice with Poasted Shrimp looked amazing–love creamy + roasty flavors and roasting tomatoes makes them just perfect.
on Nov 10th, 2009 at 3:36 pm
mmm…sweet potato risotto!! I had to try it when you posted, but also roasted some apples in it for a fall mix…perfect mixture of flavors!!
on Nov 10th, 2009 at 3:37 pm
Sausage Spinach and Provolone Pizza (http://carrotsncake.com/2009/11/sausage-spinach-and-provolone-pizza.html) which you JUST made and I’ve been wanting to try it ever since! I just need to get some provo!

on Nov 10th, 2009 at 3:38 pm
I made your hubby’s specialty Real Simple “Chili for a Crowd” for our 1st Annual Wing Fest party and it was a huuuge hit and suuuper easy!
on Nov 10th, 2009 at 3:39 pm
I love the sausage, spinach and provolone pizza. I don’t like normal pizza so I’m always looking for fun toppings. These were great

Mac and cheese with cauliflower is one of my favorites!
on Nov 10th, 2009 at 3:41 pm
I made the last minute lasagna and it was delish!!
on Nov 10th, 2009 at 3:41 pm
I specifically remember wanting to try that shells, cheese, and macaroni casserole that you made. I forget the name of it but it looked amazing! Casseroles are great to make ahead of time so that you can “heat and eat” a quick healthy meal.
However, I think any recipe that includes “real” food and is “simple” to make sounds perfect. School gets stressful, and I don’t have tons of time to plan elaborate meals. It would be so nice to have a book full of amazing, easy, and healthy recipes!
Thanks for the amazing giveaway!
on Nov 10th, 2009 at 3:42 pm
I would definitely go with the sweet potato risotto…it sounds delicious and so autumn-ish
on Nov 10th, 2009 at 3:42 pm
Real Simple chili

I have leftover sausage so I bought provolone cheese, spinach and a flatbread pizza from the grocery store the other day in preparation to make your sausage, provolone and spinach pizza from real simple! cannot wait to sink my teeth into that gem!!
thank you!

The Macaroni and Cheese with Cauliflower looks like the perfect comfort food I’m craving right now (http://carrotsncake.com/2009/02/macaroni-and-cheese-with-cauliflower.html). I’d probably try putting in broccoli instead of cauliflower to change things up a bit
on Nov 10th, 2009 at 3:54 pm
Sweet potato risotto! I made it not to long ago, it was awesome!
on Nov 10th, 2009 at 3:55 pm

And, though I don’t think you’ve made it, their garlicky pinot beans are fantastic.
on Nov 10th, 2009 at 3:57 pm

on Nov 10th, 2009 at 4:06 pm

on Nov 10th, 2009 at 4:09 pm
I like that tuna with chickpeas one as we’re always trying to pack more protein into our meals and legumes are a great way to go! I recently made Real Simple’s potato and apple gratin for a family event and it was a HIT!! It was also really quick and easy and could be easily tweaked to cut down on fat and calories. YUM!!
on Nov 10th, 2009 at 4:10 pm
Just last night I made the spinach, sausage and provolone pizza that you featured on your blog last week. I’m pretty sure that was a Real Simple recipe. It was SO good.
on Nov 10th, 2009 at 4:10 pm
The chickpea patties back in March – probably the ‘meal’ that got me hooked on your blog. I love mediterranean/middle eastern food.

I have to go with the Creamy Rice with Roasted Shirmp, because I love shrimp and creamy rice. yum!

on Nov 10th, 2009 at 4:11 pm
Oooh, I would love to win that cookbook! Hands down for me the best is the creamy rice with shrimp. LOVED IT. Drooling now just thinking about it. It also reminds me of a wonderful, simple dish I had at a restaurant recently: linguine with shrimp in a fragrant saffron butter sauce.
on Nov 10th, 2009 at 4:11 pm

on Nov 10th, 2009 at 4:18 pm
Just made the creamy rice with shrimp and grape tomatos a few days ago except I upped the health factor even more by substituting brown rice for the white stuff. SO GOOD, so flavorful, so healthy, and so simple. It doesn’t really get much better than that.
on Nov 10th, 2009 at 4:19 pm
The spinach and sausage pizza! I actually made pizza this weekend and put sausage and provolone on it because i was inspired by the recipie. It was awesome!

on Nov 10th, 2009 at 5:49 pm
The cauliflower mac n’ cheese looks delicious! You can fill up on it and not feel tooooo guilty because you are getting some veggies in as well. Plus who doesn’t love comfort food that’s “good” for you!

I remember the Last Minute Lasagne…which I will be making one of these days! It looked so good!
on Nov 10th, 2009 at 5:54 pm
I loved the pizza you made the other night with the spinach sausage and provolone. I thought it was cool how you just put the slices right on the pizza, I had never thought about it- I’ve always used shredded.
on Nov 10th, 2009 at 5:56 pm
The last minute lasagna was fabulous! I tried it the day after you made it…YUMM!

on Nov 10th, 2009 at 7:03 pm

on Nov 10th, 2009 at 7:04 pm

on Nov 10th, 2009 at 7:08 pm
DEFINITELY the mac n cheese!
Haha I definitely think I should get an extra point for this story:
So when I was applying to colleges, Yale was one of the schools I was considering. When I visited, I had an interview with one of the admissions staff. One of the questions they asked me was “If you could have lunch with anyone in the world – from the past, present, dead or alive – who would it be, and why?” You wanna know what I said? Martha Stewart. To the effing admissions deciders at Yale University! Haha I won’t give you the whole novel, but I had quite excellent reasons for choosing her if I do say so myself. Martha’s my girl.
on Nov 10th, 2009 at 7:09 pm
Chili for a crowd stood out to me, it looked awesome!

I made the Chili Recipe for my weekly Grey’s Anatomy night. I have 8 girls over to my house each week to watch the show and have dinner. We just subbed the ground beef in the recipe for ground turkey to make it a little bit lighter and served it with Jalapeno Cheddar muffins!!! Nom, nom, nom! It was a huge it!
on Nov 10th, 2009 at 7:34 pm

I love to take cookbooks with non-vegan recipes and use their methods with vegan ingredients.
on Nov 10th, 2009 at 7:42 pm
I have to go with Mal’s chilli by real simple, because it is just too cute that this is his specialty to make for friends.
on Nov 10th, 2009 at 7:42 pm
i wanted to try either the sweet potato risotto or the tuna and chickpeas with pesto. i’m vegetarian so i would most likely end up trying the sweet potato risotto, or i could just leave the tuna out
such an awesome giveaway!

Tina,
I loved the look of Creamy Rice with Roasted Shrimp but it might have been my love of the picture of you and Murphy cuddling. I have a pug that looks a lot like Murphy (but 4 years older and therefore fatter!). Love love LOVE the pugs!
Thanks for the opportunity!
Katie

Sweet potato risotto!
on Nov 10th, 2009 at 7:47 pm
The chili looks good, especially as the weather is getting cool….
on Nov 10th, 2009 at 7:50 pm
The way I found your blog was by googling a Real Simple recipe I’d read in a waiting room (I’ve since ordered a subscription!) and it led me to Carrots ‘n Cake! Chickpea Patties – they are so tasty.
on Nov 10th, 2009 at 7:51 pm
Chili for a Crowd was my favorite of your Real Simple recipes..it’s delish…Great to see you in San Fran at the Foodbuzz Festival….have a great night, Tina!

on Nov 10th, 2009 at 7:58 pm
Sweet potato rissoto!

The Tuna with Chick Pea Salad with Pesto recipe was delightful! I love Real Simple!
on Nov 10th, 2009 at 8:11 pm

Last minute lasagna for sure. I make this alot.
on Nov 10th, 2009 at 8:25 pm
I’m still thinking about the chili Mal made awhile back with a Real Simple recipe. It’s one of my favorite magazines and recipe sources, so I would so love this cookbook!
on Nov 10th, 2009 at 8:31 pm
Tuna and chickpea salad is AaaaaMAZIng!!!! And who doesn’t like pesto =) I think I ate this atlest twice a week all summer long!

on Nov 10th, 2009 at 8:35 pm
The Macaroni and Cheese with Cauliflower!!!
on Nov 10th, 2009 at 8:40 pm
I agree, Real Simple has some of the best recipes! I just read their latest issue cover to cover today.
I am kicking myself but I remember a long time ago (sometime last year) you made a Real Simple recipe that looked soooo amazing and now I can’t remember or find exactly what it was. This is actually how I discovered your blog! I beleive it was something along the lines of pinto beans? Do you recall a main dish you made using these beans? I also remember you raving about it for days and now I will probably spend the next 15 min searching your archives to find this recipe because I just reminded myself of how badly I wanted to make it.
Thanks Tina!
on Nov 10th, 2009 at 8:40 pm
I’ve been making more pizza lately so I may have to try the Sausage, Spinach, and Provolone pizza soon!
on Nov 10th, 2009 at 8:42 pm
Garlicky Pinto Beans!!!! That’s it!

Chili for a crowd is perfect for the chilly weather!
on Nov 10th, 2009 at 8:48 pm
Most of the recipes from Real Simple that you have made sound delicious, especially the creamy rice with roasted shrimp. I am going to have to try that soon
on Nov 10th, 2009 at 8:48 pm
Definitely the pizza! Your recipe inspired me to make homemade pizzas again!! I passed on the sausage and just added all veggies! Very delish!! Absolutely love your blog!! Your hard work is appreciated my so many loyal readers!
on Nov 10th, 2009 at 8:51 pm
Definitely the last minute lasagna!!!! That’s actually how I originally found your site – through a Google search for the last minute lasagna recipe. I love how quick/easy/inexpensive/yummy it is. I use reduced fat mozzarella and low fat ravioli to skip some calories, and I sometimes replace the spinach with kale for some extra nutrients and a little variety in the flavor!
on Nov 10th, 2009 at 8:55 pm
the cheesy baked shells sound just divine!!
on Nov 10th, 2009 at 8:57 pm
I loveeeeeeeeeee pizza! The pizza you made would be divine to make!! I love Real Simple.

on Nov 10th, 2009 at 10:08 pm
I was just looking at the macaroni and cheese this morning with cauliflower!
on Nov 10th, 2009 at 10:10 pm
I would mention the Real Simple Chilli and of course the roast beet and carrot salad. Cool website! Love it!
on Nov 10th, 2009 at 10:14 pm
I know this may sound weird but I LOVE LOVE LOVE beans. For some reason I enjoy the texture, taste, and satiety you recieve from eating beans
not to mention their fiber value. So the garlicky pinto bean recipe from real simple (and really easy to make) stood out as a winner and can go with almost anything.
on Nov 10th, 2009 at 10:20 pm
The Mac and Cheese with cauliflower sounds fantastic – this book would come in handy as I need some new (healthy) recipes to try.

on Nov 10th, 2009 at 10:27 pm
the creamy rice with roasted shrimp looked amaaaazing!!!
on Nov 10th, 2009 at 10:29 pm
It’s a tie between the chili and pizza. They both look amazing!
on Nov 10th, 2009 at 10:30 pm
Thanks for the opportunity! Back in September you made their Tuna and Chickpea salad with Pesto and served it on top of a bed of lettuce with a side of homemade pita chips! It looked amazing!
on Nov 10th, 2009 at 10:41 pm
I’m going to have to go with the tuna and chickpea salad with pesto. Real. Simple.
on Nov 10th, 2009 at 10:44 pm

The chickpea patties look amazing! I’m a vegetarian but love burger/patty type foods.
on Nov 10th, 2009 at 10:59 pm
You made garlicky pinto beans from Real Simple once. I have made this recipe because it is so versatile- it can be a a side or a main dish.
on Nov 10th, 2009 at 10:59 pm
I’d have to vote for Real Simple’s Sausage, Spinach, and Provolone pizza. Delicious delicious pizza!
on Nov 10th, 2009 at 11:01 pm
The sweet potato risotto sounds amazing!
on Nov 10th, 2009 at 11:06 pm

You made the Chickpea Patties in March!!!
on Nov 10th, 2009 at 11:09 pm
I’m not normally a cauliflower fan, but the macaroni and cheese with cauliflower Real Simple recipe that you made looked quite tasty.
on Nov 10th, 2009 at 11:25 pm
Who doesn’t love easy & healthy!? I’m definitely going to be looking this cookbook up. I don’t normally do “cookbooks” for my professional book reviews so my chances of getting this one are pretty null! I can hope though?! LOL Thanks for sharing. As always.. I follow your blog all the time.

I learned all my favorite Real Simple recipes from YOUR blog! I desperately want this cookbook! I think my favorite was the cauliflower mac and cheese.
on Nov 10th, 2009 at 11:54 pm
Easily the mac and cheese you made with the cauliflower. Although the pizza from the other night looked like a good combo.
on Nov 10th, 2009 at 11:56 pm
The chili that Mal made foryou and your friends. Looked really good.
on Nov 10th, 2009 at 11:57 pm

I love Real Simple. I’ve never made a bad recipe!
Mac and cheese is a favorite comfort food of mine, and it sounds delicious with cauliflower.

The tuna and chickpea salad with pesto you made awhile ago looked phenomenal. I just made a salmon and chickpea salad today, and I’m thinking the pesto would have been a great addition.

I saw this giveaway and got super excited! I love Real Simple. I thought that it’d take me awhile to find a recipe but remembered that I had saved the Chili for a Crowd recipe to make one day. It really looks awesome.

I had a hard time deciding, so I’m picking both Tuna and Chickpea Salad with Pesto and the Sausage, Spinach, and Provolone Pizza. Real Simple really does have some great recipes.

I would love to make the sausage, spinach, and provolone pizza. My favorite food is pizza, and I am always trying to find new ways to make it.I work full time and have 2 small children so Real simple cookbook would be so helpful!

Sweet Potato Risotto sounds awesome. I have got to try to make it.

The creamy rice and roasted shrimp looked amazing. I would not have thought of roasting the shrimp. Great idea!

The garlicky pinto beans from earlier in the year – I loved those!

I love your blog – I read it every day! I made the creamy rice and roasted shrimp and although it was good hot it was even better cold!! (I added some parm cheese to it too)

I definitely want to make make the macaroni n’ cheese with cauliflower! I love mac n’ cheese, this version is healthier and more nutrient dense than what I’m used to while still sounding delicious!

I am so in the Real Simple website these days and the recipes are fabulous! Making the strip steak and onions rolls this weekend!
