Mahalo Recipe Hunt!

I have been working on a new Mahalo page for Recipes.

The idea is to have a page that Mahalo users can visit to see all of the best recipes on the site broken down into categories.

The problem is that many good recipes are difficult to find (not categorized properly) and I am a bit lazy.

So let's have the great Recipe Hunt!

Please search Mahalo and find as many great recipe pages as you can that aren't currently on my recipe page.
Please include a link to each page in your answer, like this: How To Make A Stuffed Burger

And feel free to suggest any missing categories or other ideas to improve the page.

Happy Hunting!

P.S.
There is also another hunt for ethnic recipes on the way..

(and Rob, I just couldn't resist using your Hamburger photo..)

Thanks @masontx,
I'm heading out soon myself. Feel free to send more any time.
I'm hoping the page becomes a useful resource while driving a bit more traffic to some of the great recipes on the site.

There is a category page for Cooking & Recipes that should include all the recipe pages on the site. The fact that it doesn't means that not all pages have been placed in the category. During the "great recipe hunt", it would be a good idea to add the Cooking & Recipes category to any pages that you encounter which are not properly indexed already - or let the page manager know via dm or on the page's message board.

Hi Brian...

For you drink section you'll need to include the 'how to make a margarita'

And for the desert section, you'll have to include @ssmcd's great page on making vanilla icing since it is the staple of many fun deserts to make.

(FYI- you listed popcorn balls in the drink section. Hey, if they were filled with liquor, I'd give them a try!)

There are limitless possibilities when you use vanilla icing...

voted this as helpful just because you posted a pic of a Toad cake!

and there should be a How To page on how to spike a watermelon.

This was made for me. I'll be adding to this during the day.

Page might benefit from a "videos" section, or having a "videos" area under each food category.

I think you should add a Pasta Recipe Page http://food.yahoo.com/search?tp=recipe&in=pasta&p=.
http://pasta.cdkitchen.com/
http://www.foodnetwork.com/topics/pasta/index.html

How about a baked goods page too. http://recipes.lovetoknow.com/wiki/Category:Baked_Goods_Recipes
http://allrecipes.com/Recipes/Breakfast-and-Brunch/Baked-Goods/Cinnamon-Rolls/Main.aspx

In your drinks you could add How to make a Mocha Frappe : In a medium cup brew two pods of esspresso, line the cup with chocolate and add three shots (from sprayer) of carmel. Fill the cup with ice, fill the remaining part of the cup with a beverage mix, and blend !
You can also warm the beverage mix instead of icing it and add that to your espresso and carmel.

A beverage mix is creamier and sweeter than milk and gives the perfect taste to any Latte. http://www.coffeeexpressco.com/auxitems/jettea.shtml.

Hi @sunshine09,
Sorry, I may have been a bit unclear.
I am looking for recipe pages on mahalo.com already. (such as How to Make A Stuffed Burger)
So the idea is to check on the site and find one of these recipes that I haven't added to my Recipes page.

Hi @kannan,
Just to clarify, I would like Mahalo users to find pages on Mahalo.com for interesting recipes that I can add to my recipes page.

So if you can find some recipes on the site, please add them to your answer.

Thanks!
Brian

Here is a good place to start, though many recipes aren't categorized yet.

So this google search is also a good place to look.
