Ohh, your chickpea burgers with cilantro lime mayo are the best! Plus, all of your gorgeous desserts and photos!

What isn’t there to love?! I made an adaptation of your pumpkin french toast, and it was scrumptious.
Karen — December 8, 2009 @ 4:02 AM

Kristin — December 8, 2009 @ 4:46 AM
The food! You post recipes that real people make. And I’m addicted to your roasted cauliflower with lemon, garlic & Parm. It’s awesome on hummus.

celine — December 8, 2009 @ 5:38 AM
to be honest, i found “you” only 2 days ago. i was captivated by your layout – simple and elegant, simplicity at its best (in my opinion). after going through your archives (almost done) i was drawn by your shots, simply awesome, 100% drool-worthy!
as far as i am concerned, i have already won by finding you, j & j will be a bonus …..
GR8MIDWIFE — December 8, 2009 @ 5:40 AM
I am a cancer sun, meaning food has deep meanings for me and feeding people a way to nurture and love them. This site hits the mark for me! I came to this site because of the name – pioneers are courageous, innovative, committed people which is true by your example.
Kathy — December 8, 2009 @ 5:44 AM
I like the recipe categories….they make it so easy to find a new recipe idea quickly. Oh, also love your gorgeous photos!!

sharon — December 8, 2009 @ 8:53 AM
I love the variety of recipes you post!
Erin — December 8, 2009 @ 9:00 AM
I just found your site in the last couple weeks and I am smitten! I love that you have such a wide variety of recipes (a few sections specifically for low carb, low fat, and plain old eating healthy). I really like that you add the nutritional information for your recipes and would like all of them to have that information, as well as a picture. Sometimes my mind can’t envision what the final result of a recipe will look like. If I can see it and it looks delicious I am that much more likely to try it out, even when it includes something I’m a bit leery of.
Katherine — December 8, 2009 @ 9:04 AM
The photos with your recipes are great and I also enjoy the variety.
Jenna — December 8, 2009 @ 9:06 AM
I love this site! You always have such fun and simple ideas which is why I love it so much.
Kara — December 8, 2009 @ 9:09 AM
I love the variety of recipes you post (crud, I just saw that the last poster wrote the exact same thing – I guess a lot of us like that!). Lately your creative endeavors with puff pastry have really been some of my favorites. Thanks – and Merry Christmas!
Stacey — December 8, 2009 @ 9:13 AM
I love how you make each and every one of these recipes possible for “non” cooks like myself. They are so easy to follow. I absolutely LOVE the look of your site. It’s so much fun. Thank you!
Jen Schall — December 8, 2009 @ 9:18 AM
I love that you make all your recipes approachable… You have a great writing style and your photos always look amazing!
Carla — December 8, 2009 @ 9:21 AM
This is my first time visiting your blog. What I love is how you have a real layout and not some blog template. I’m a multimedia graduate so it matters to me! As far as content, I love the cooking for two section (goat cheese ravioli – yum my favorite cheese) bc there are times I cook just for myself and like to have some leftovers.
Kate @ Savour Fare — December 8, 2009 @ 9:27 AM
I like how cheerful you are. Seriously — all of your recipes have that “can do” attitude.
LilSis — December 8, 2009 @ 9:36 AM
I really love everything about your site. I don’t think you’ve ever posted a recipe that I didn’t want to make. And, of course, I’ll be yet another to say that your photos are always beautiful.
I was just talking to my sister last night on the phone about your amazing Chocolate Peanut Butter Snowballs that you just posted.
I also love when you photograph your table decor before your dinner parties. They’re always beautiful.
I can’t wait to see what you’re going to do next if you’re planning a facelift for your blog.
nina — December 8, 2009 @ 9:46 AM
I went to a web designer the other day and your blog was one of the examples I showed him of how I want my site to look…. Love it all!!
Zahra Duffy — December 8, 2009 @ 9:50 AM

Brooke — December 8, 2009 @ 9:52 AM
I love the ease of finding a recipe, and your catergory headings are hilarious and make me smile. This really is a GREAT site!(and I can’t wait to see this movie)
Shelly — December 8, 2009 @ 9:55 AM
I love that you post delicious recipes that don’t take a Masters Degree in the culinary arts to figure out… simple novices like myself can handle them, and come across looking like a talented cook in front of family & friends. You bring me daily inspiration, RecipeGirl!
kayceebeebee — December 8, 2009 @ 10:11 AM
I love your pictures, recipes and how easy it is to print your recipes.

Janelle — December 8, 2009 @ 10:26 AM
I love all of the different recipes that aren’t your “same old thing.” I love the idea of sugar babies in cookies-and I am not sure I would have thought of it. So, thank you for sharing your talent!
Kristi — December 8, 2009 @ 10:28 AM
Ohh…the pictures!

Ashley — December 8, 2009 @ 11:46 AM
I love your site and am a frequent visitor when I want to try out a new recipe! I especially enjoy our recipes for two as I find it difficult sometimes cooking for one.
Kathy W — December 8, 2009 @ 11:55 AM
I really enjoy the blog. I can’t even tell you how many recipes I’ve tried at this point. I wouldn’t mind seeing more pictures showing the step-by-step process of making a few of the recipies.
Natalie H. — December 8, 2009 @ 11:58 AM
I love the organization of your site.
jenn — December 8, 2009 @ 12:00 PM

I absolutely love the recipes! I love trying new things! So keep sharing them!
Miss Becky — December 8, 2009 @ 12:42 PM
woweeezowie, nothing brings out the comments like a giveaway, huh? I love your sense of humor and the recipes for Romesco Roasted Red Pepper and Almond Spread and Toasted Pecan Napoleans. You offer up recipes for things that I would actually consider serving my guests and that is rare. thanks.
CookbookApprentice — December 8, 2009 @ 12:56 PM
Hi, it’s my first time here! I came across your blog via your comment on another. When I saw “Recipe Girl” I knew I had to check it out. Can’t wait to try out some of your recipes and share my results!
Valerie — December 8, 2009 @ 1:39 PM
Love your recipes and archives. I wish your opening page showed the current blog posting…then the link to the other featured collections (like how you have Christmas cookies now) underneath. My favorite thing to look through is the current blog recipe.
Rebecca — December 8, 2009 @ 2:00 PM
I come here for the recipes – yum! I also like how they’re categorized. It makes it easy to find something new to try!
Kristin T — December 8, 2009 @ 2:12 PM

Seriously though, I subscribe to a lot of recipe blogs, but when it comes to printing a recipe, it’s as likely to be yours as the others combined. Keep up the good work!

Food Savvy Savanna — December 8, 2009 @ 4:21 PM

Keep them comin!

Jane — December 9, 2009 @ 9:24 AM
I really like the oraganization of your recipe files. It was easy for me to find your themed parties. I also like the cleaness of your blog, not a lot of extraneous things cluttering it up. Your recipes are great and I do forward them on to my daughter as a hint that she, as a young newlywed, can cook (even though she doesn’t like it) very easily. As a side note, I read Julie & Julia a few years ago and eagerly awaited the movies release. It lived up to my expectations and I hope that I can win the DVD. Thank you.

What I appreciate about your website is that you arent afraid to talk about the cooking failures. You tell the truth so that we dont waste time attempting a recipe that is a disaster. That (in my trawling through cooking blogs) is an unusual event. Most of the time you only hear of the triumphs……
