    Heathly Appetite with Ellie Krieger

    Does anyone else watch this show?
    I noticed there's not a forum for it.
    I set up a season pass in my Tivo for the show. I've been enjoying watching it. I have yet to make anything from the show, but last week (I think) Ellie made sloppy joes and I had to break out my turkey sloppy joe recipe and make it because is was so similar to the one in that episode.

    I really wanted to try her oven baked onion rings but have never gotten around to making them.

    She gives just enough information on nutrition to keep me interested.

    yes I do, she cooks healthy. I find it informative and sometimes a little on the boring side, but all in all it is not to bad. At least she dresses with class.

    Granted, she is a little on the bland side from a production value. But given the my favorite cooking show is about the only one that's wildly entertaining, I'll let it slide

    I have seen her show. I find her voice to be a bit monotonous. As Ibcheft said, boring.
    I enjoy her recipes though. A friend has one of her cookbooks.

    Usually someone has to generate enough press to be able to support a forum. I can't find many things on her. Ina is tough to find news on too, but since she airs everyday I thought she should have her own forum.

    I have made the onion rings with the baked potato chip crumbs. They were pretty good. I've made a few of her things and they are pretty tasty.

    I figured the show wasn't big enough for a forum slot, it seems faily new too. I think I would catch it from time to time starting last year that's why I put it in Tivo

    I watch the show. Some of her recipes are a bit bland (get in touch with your spice rack when you cook her stuff), but I like her show. ( Speaking as a guy: she's cute too.) I made one of her recipes and my wife made one. One we loved and one was too bland for our taste. I say: Give her a forum.

    I watch it only occasionally when she's making something that might be interesting but I can't say that I've ever printed off any of her recipes.


    Another thing that just goes against my roots is that, being Italian, we always cook twice as much food as we need so there's no chance of anyone going home hungry. (With everyone staring at that last piece of chicken wondering if anyone else wants it. Ugh! No thanks!) Ellie only makes 4 servings but, in our family, it'd only feed one or two. I live alone and I still cook for a family. It takes the same amount of time and I'm able to drop some portions off at my daughters'. It's a win/win situation.
