-who is obviously a debbie downer.
This is a community of people who enjoy rating recipes, we come here to share our Good thoughts and ideas about them. Its one thing to rate a recipe low because maybe it wasnt of your preference, but it is entirely uncalled for to rate on the basis of your own personal decision as to wether or not this is even a recipe and secondly to comment on the cooking skills of chefs that you will never even be able to touch. IT IS A RECIPE, thats why its on food network.com and it is a delicious recipe at that! as for you hating on the neelys, keep it to yourself, people are here to share good things about food, not talk badly about the people who produce them. If your not pleased with the recipe, so be it, but as im sure even your mom would say, If you have nothing nice to say, dont say it at all, because most of us here are food lovers and lovers of the characters on food network and we'd rather not here itat all.
GO NEELYS!!! and there asparagus!
