    "I don't know: perhaps I expect too much from these recipes. Again, this was a recipe that never quite "gelled". Sure, all of the ingredients were fine, but there was no real flavour to this dish. It would have benefited immensely from the addition of a more flavourful cheese, such as Parmigiano-Reggiano or from the addition of onions or garlic. Polenta is quite bland, and the addition of a semi-sweet and creamy cheese such as mascarpone only adds to this bland sweetness."

    "I suppose you can't really expect much from this recipe and that is exactly what you get. It reminded me - comfortingly - of the brownies included in the TV-dinners of my youth. Spongy and strange, indeed, but reassuringly chocolaty. Used an 800w microwave, and cooked it for too long to compensate for lower wattage. If I were to make it again, I would cook it for less time. This would be absolutely fine drowned in ice cream and hot fudge. Oh, well: another night, perhaps. "

    Spinach with pine nuts & garlic

    Tested

    "Absolutely perfect. I halved the recipe and it came out perfectly. The golden pine nuts add a lovely nuttiness to the spinach and garlic. Would definitely make this again."

    "This was easy to make, but ended up tasting so much like rosemary that it was almost medicinal. In fact, that was the only taste that you really tasted with this recipe. Beware!"

    Blueberry, peach & soured cream muffins

    Tested

    "I agree that there was something not quite right about this recipe. If I knew more about baking - and I'll admit that I'm still a novice - I could probably put my finger on it, but there were stodgy and too dense. Too much flour, not enough baking powder... I don't know, but I did follow the recipe to the word and they still didn't turn out quite right."
