Chocolate Cobbler

Reviewed: Apr. 15, 2011

My new favorite chocolate fix! This stuff is so delicious! It's fast, easy, and I've used way less than 6 tbsp of butter and it still tastes incredible. I usually use 1/4 cup of cocoa in the batter, just because I want it really chocolatey. I use a little less sugar too. It's so good I crave it and I know nothing will substitute. It's got that cake-like topping with hot fudge underneath... makes my mouth water just thinking about it!

No Mayo Deviled Eggs

Reviewed: Apr. 5, 2010

4 stars for the idea, but I didn't follow this recipe exactly. Mine turned out pretty good, but be careful how much sour cream you add because too much will ruin the flavor. I also added a little lemon juice and instead of Worcestershire, since I had none, I used a mixture of salt, pepper, onion & garlic powder, paprika, and a little chili powder. I think they would've been perfect if I hadn't used too much sour cream.

Texas Sheet Cake

Reviewed: Jan. 26, 2010

I cut this recipe in half and used a 9x9 pan. I also used 1/2 whole wheat flour and low-fat sour cream. It turned out really good! The reason I gave 4 stars instead of 5 was because I thought there was way too much frosting, but that might be because I used a 9X9 pan....

Banana Banana Bread

Reviewed: Dec. 9, 2009

So many 5 star reviews but I did not see the hype. It was soft and moist, but there was no flavor... and I even added cinnamon, nutmeg, homemade vanilla, and a little clove. Eh...

Tofu Jerky II

Reviewed: Aug. 5, 2009

Delicious! It's a sweet and spicy marinade and I thought it tasted really good without the liquid smoke. I used a 250 degree oven and it took over 5 hours, but I think I cut the pieces too thick. I also marinaded the tofu overnight. I can't keep my hands off it, it's so tasty!

Banana Sour Cream Bread

Reviewed: Oct. 28, 2008

The bread was so delicious! I did make few modifications- I cut the recipe in half and baked in a 8x8 square pan. I used 2 eggs, 3/4 cup sour cream (all I had on hand), a pinch of nutmeg, 1/2 cup chocolate chips (& walnuts), 2 cups whole wheat flour, left everything else the same, and baked at 300 for an hour. After an hour, it was obvious that the temp needed to be higher, so I raised it to 350 and baked about 30 more mins. It was so moist and the crust was just a tiny bit crunchy. My boyfriend and I couldn't stop eating it! Even with the 100% whole wheat flour, the texture was great, almost like it was made with white flour! I will definitely make again!

Veggie Pot Pie

Reviewed: Oct. 14, 2008

Great recipe, but I did change a few things. I didn't use any mushrooms or green beans and added veggie chicken strips. Instead of using 3 cups of broth, I used a can of cream of mushroom soup with a can and a 1/2 of broth. I also used 3 tbsp cornstarch and 1 tbsp each of soy sauce and worcestershire. FYI, the thickness of the filling in the pot is how thick it will be in the pie. It took 45 minutes to bake. The pie turned out delicious and so satisfying! UPDATE- I made another pie since I have enough filling, but I waited a couple of days. It was SO good. The flavors had combined and it was even better than the first. I would highly recommend letting the filling sit overnight. This recipe is great!

Mexican Egg Bake

Reviewed: Oct. 1, 2008

I made this for dinner last night and it was really good. I made a few changes though, so hence only 4 stars. 1- I scaled down the recipe to fit in a 8x8 pan. 2- I added some cumin and S&P to the egg mixture. 3- I made my enchilada sauce mixed with a can of cream of mushroom soup- try it, it's SO good. 4- I used 1/2 onion, 1/2 green pepper, & 1/2 yellow pepper for veggies. 5- Next time, I'll fry the corn tortillas before laying them in the pan. Overall, this recipe is a really nice mexican dish. Easy, fast, and tasty! Will definitely make again.

Fluffy Whole Wheat Biscuits

Reviewed: Sep. 20, 2008

I used all whole wheat flour and otherwise followed the recipe exactly. They turned out way to baking "powdery" and didn't have a very good flavor. Maybe we'll try again with less baking powder and more butter! :)

Peach-a-Berry Pie

Reviewed: Aug. 31, 2008

This pie was a little tart for my tastes, but I did forget to put sugar on the crust, so that was part of the problem. Next time, I'll use 1 cup of sugar and sprinkle some on the crust. Also, I did not drain any of the fruit. I used 3 fresh peaches and 2 cups of fresh huckleberries. I only used 1 tbsp flour and 2 tbsp corn starch, no butter.

Southern Peach Cobbler

Reviewed: Aug. 16, 2008

Very delicious!! I made it in an 8x8 square pan. I used whole wheat flour, a little extra corn starch, 8 tbsp butter, and some sorry excuses for peaches with a couple of sorry nectarines too. We had these big peaches but they were bruised and just not any good to eat plain. So I thought that they'd be okay in a cobbler. And this recipe turned out fabulous! The topping is ridiculous and the flavors were so wonderful. My boyfriend and I almost ate the whole thing as soon as it was cool enough! It was simple to make, with ingredients I always have, and it was seriously one of the best cobblers I've ever tasted. I will be making this one again!

Truck-Stop Buttermilk Pancakes

Reviewed: Jul. 21, 2008

YUMMY! We even used whole wheat flour, 1/2 cup coconut milk instead of regular milk, 1 banana, 1 apple sauteed in butter, cinnamon, and sugar, and it still turned out soo good! They were a little crispy on the outside and perfect on the inside. The flavor was awesome! Seriously the most adaptable pancake recipe ever! Next time we might have to try the traditional way just to see how great they are! :)

Creamy Broccoli Casserole

Reviewed: Jul. 19, 2008

This was ok. I thought there was way too many breadcrumbs. Also, I used sharp white cheddar cheese instead of cream cheese. The flavor was just overpowered by the breadcrumbs. Next time I will use 1/2 the amount and put them just on the top.

Peanut Butter Cocoa No-Bake Cookies

Reviewed: Jun. 29, 2008

Quick, easy, delicious! Great for a fast chocolate fix. I used 1 cup brown and 1 cup white sugar, plus an extra heaping tablespoon of cocoa. They were gooey and chocolatey and wonderful! So I've made this recipe twice now and the 2nd time I used 1/2 Grape Nuts cereal and 1/2 oats because we were running low on oats. It turned out SO good. I think you could pretty much use any cereal you have and it would be delicious!

Tangy Pumpkin Soup with Green Chili Swirl

Reviewed: Apr. 30, 2008

Yummy! Not your typical soup. Believe it or not, I made this soup because I had the ingredients lying around! :) It was so simple and turned out really tasty. I used 1.5 tsp minced garlic, 1 tsp Cholula, 1.5 tsp green chili powder, 1.5 tsp crushed red pepper, about .5 tsp cumin, and some salt and black pepper. I also just added the chopped green chilis to the pumpkin/stock. I used vegetable stock instead of chicken to make vegetarian. Will make again when I have leftover pumpkin!

Chocolate Sauce

Reviewed: Apr. 27, 2008

Easy, fast, delicious!! Great for chocolate cravings. I used 1 cup water and left everything else the same. I dipped bananas in it and it was so tasty! Was definitely runny until it cooled down, then was just right.

Vegetarian Four Cheese Lasagna

Reviewed: Apr. 17, 2008

Very tasty lasagna. The only problem I had was that I don't like charred eggplant. So I ended up under-cooking it and even after the 45 min baking, it was still hard. Make sure you cook it until tender during the grilling! Otherwise, it had a really nice combination of flavors and there were very few leftovers!

Ruth's Red Lentil and Potato Soup

Reviewed: Jan. 30, 2008

Great flavor, great soup!! Didn't have the whole 1.5 cups lentils, so I threw in 1/2 cup quick cooking barley. Also used more than the recommended amount of spices. I didn't need to add any water to mine either. The broth was plenty. I used split lentils and the whole thing was done cooking in about 25min. It was really satisfying and tasted delicious!

Peach Cobbler VI

Reviewed: Jan. 27, 2008

So, I did not follow this recipe exactly. I used frozen(from fresh) peaches, a fresh mango, and a sauteed(in butter, cinnamon, and sugar) apple as my fruit. I also used 1/2 cup coconut milk and 1/4 cup regular milk for the batter, which made it so rich and flavorful. I also only added 1/4 cup of each sugar and sprinkled some brown sugar, cinnamon, and nutmeg on the top. Warmed oven to 400, then dropped to 350 when I put it in. Took about 40 mins and was so delicious!
