Peach Custard Pie III

Reviewed: Dec. 5, 2009
We liked this pie, and the fact that it wasn't too bad fat- and calorie-wise for a slice of pie. Sweetness was just right. Used another reviewer's suggestion of brushing the unbaked pie shell with egg - baked crust was perfect, not soggy at all.

Oat Bran Muffins

Reviewed: Dec. 5, 2009
Used cinnamon applesauce and vanilla yogurt and only one egg. Good muffins and nice source of fiber. Could use a little more flavor, maybe by adding more spices or some dried fruits and nuts.

Johnny's Biscuits

Reviewed: Dec. 2, 2009
I usually make the J.P.'s Big Daddy Biscuits from this site, but decided to try these tonight to go with a pot of beef stew (my own recipe). I was worried at first because the dough was so wet, but there was nothing to be concerned about. They were fluffy and soft on the inside with just a tiny bit of crispiness on the outside. I thought they were better than J.P.'s! I will be using this recipe from now on.

Classic Thanksgiving Dressing With Parsley, Sage and Thyme

Reviewed: Nov. 28, 2009
My mother usually makes the dressing for our Thanksgivings, but she was out of town this year, so I tried this one. It's very close to the simple, yet delicious one she makes. It was good, but I had to add more liquid (turkey stock). As is, it was on the dry side. I also thought it needed more sage/seasonings, so I threw in some extra. However, overall, this is an easy, yummy dressy that's great for those of us who are not dressing "experts" like Mom!

Orange Turkey Brine

Reviewed: Nov. 28, 2009
I thought this was a great brine, and I would use it again. I've brined my turkeys for years now, but I generally use a little more Kosher salt to the amount of liquid (it doesn't make it "salty"), and this turkey was not quite as moist. Next time, I'll just add a little more Kosher salt. Thanks!

Hearty Meatball Soup II

Reviewed: Nov. 19, 2009
Easy, hearty one-bowl meal; served it with some homemade Italian bread, and it went quickly before everyone was out the door for their evening activities.

This was good bread, just not quite as good as Mama D's Italian Bread.

Oven Fried Chicken III

Reviewed: Nov. 18, 2009
Moist and flavorful chicken! I used ranch dressing because I was low on mayo, and I think it probably had more flavor because of that. We liked it a lot.

Roasted Vegetables

Reviewed: Nov. 18, 2009
Very good! I used shallots and white onions instead of red onions, to use them up, but otherwise stuck to the recipe. Even my picky kids liked these.

Pineapple Banana Bread

Reviewed: Nov. 15, 2009
I thought this was a very good quick bread, and I even changed it to make it a tad healthier! I replaced one of the cups of AP flour with whole wheat, used applesauce for about half of the oil, and reduced the sugar by a 1/2 cup. I had chunk pineapple, so I gave it a quick whirl in the mini-food chopper with the bananas, and it worked well. It was gone very quickly!

Didn't really taste like fudge, more like chocolate chips.

Soft Chocolate Cookies

Rolled these in powdered sugar, and they were perfect. Lightly crispy edges, soft and chewy centers - yummy!

I've made these several times, and they always turn out moist, sweet and perfect. They go quickly every time!

Country Apple Dumplings

Reviewed: Oct. 16, 2009
These were so good! We laughed over the reviewer that called them "white trash dessert," but were pleasantly surprised with how great they really were. I would probably cut back a little on the sugar next time -- just my personal preference -- but the rest of the family had no complaints. Served warm with a scoop of vanilla ice cream, and they were in heaven. Definitely will make these again.

Garlic Lover's Pizza Crust for the Bread Machine

Reviewed: Oct. 16, 2009
This was good, not my favorite pizza crust, but still a decent one. My family didn't gobble it up quick like they usually do, so that may have affected my opinion. ;)

Cowboy Skillet Casserole

Reviewed: Jul. 21, 2009
We liked this, but I thought the baked beans made the dish too sweet. Made it again with ranch style beans and it was perfect. Great quick dinner for the kids.

Best Big, Fat, Chewy Chocolate Chip Cookie

Reviewed: Jul. 21, 2009
Excellent! I didn't make any changes to the recipe, and they were large, chewy, beautiful cookies. My butter had been sitting on the counter in my too warm kitchen and was super soft, so I didn't bother to melt it. They had a few too many chips for me so I would probably reduce that if I were the only one eating them, but the kids said they were perfect. I think I will try HoneyB's idea of adding toffee bits next time! UPDATE: Tried the toffee bits, some with pecans, very good!
