Shrimp and Okra Gumbo
I followed this recipe to a T. Make sure to use plenty of salt/pepper and don't be too afraid of a little extra cayenne. My wife likes food on the bland side and even she said it didn't have a ton of flavor. I added quite a bit more salt/pepper (not sure how much exaclty) and then some season salt & garlic salt as well. After that, it was pretty good. I guess it's better to error on the side of caution with spices/seasons though... you can always add more but can't take away. It was, however, pretty soupy. I expected it to be a lot thicker than it turned out to be. I'd give 3.5 stars, but since that's not an option I rounded up. I'll make this again but maybe try something a little different.

A Southern Fried Chicken
This recipe was outstanding. The BBQ and wocestershire give the chicken an amazing sweet, deep flavor. I didn't have any steak sauce and didn't add anything else to make up for the difference, but it was perfect as it was. Also, I didn't have whole pieces but rather used boneless chicken strips. It was very juicy but cooked all the way through, and it remained juicy even as leftovers. I will be making this chicken for years to come.

Easy Chicken Fajita Soup
This was an outstanding, very easy soup. I followed this recipe just as it said and the soup turned out wonderful, but this could very easily be modified based on variations of veggies and/or other ingredients that you may have. I cooked it for the amount of time it called for, then let it sit and simmer on low for over an hour (I fixed it a long time before the party started). This is one of those soups that gets better the longer it sets, and is also better when it's reheated the next day. I will definitely make this again, and I think I'd like to try it with steak the next time.
