new and edit controller actions redirecting to home, 'overwriting existing method'

Question

I've got an issue where Rails is for some reason redirecting the new and edit methods to the home page, but the index and show methods are returned fine.

There is nothing special in the controller, or the routes, though I'll include them below.

The error I'm getting is

Started GET "/recipes/new" for 192.168.5.46 at 2011-11-07 11:40:06 -0800
  Processing by RecipesController#new as HTML

I'm assuming the problem is with this 'overwriting' bit, but I don't know why it is attempting to do that, and then redirecting to home.

my recipes controller is

class RecipesController < ApplicationController
 load_and_authorize_resource
before_filter :require_user
respond_to :html, :js

  def index
    @recipes = Recipe.find_all_by_author_id(current_user.id)
  end

  def show
   @recipe = Recipe.find(params[:id])

  end

  def new
  return render :text =< 'new recipe'
    @recipe = Recipe.new

  end

  def create
    @recipe = Recipe.new(params[:recipe])
    @recipe.author_id=current_user.id
    if @recipe.save
      flash[:notice] = "Successfully created recipe."
      redirect_to @recipe
    else
      render :action =< 'new'
    end
  end
end

even the render text on new isn't returning, it goes right to the redirect.

Any ideas why this might be happening and suggestions to resolve it?

What in method :require_user?
If you comment load_and_authorize_resource is it work?
