Strawberry and White Chocolate Mousse Tart

Reviewed: Jun. 4, 2011

Would be 5 stars if the white chocolate was doubled to 12 oz. Could easily be made without the crust too except that the crust was wonderful.

Angel Chicken Pasta

Reviewed: Feb. 21, 2010

This was really good. I made it exactly as written the only change being doubling the sauce and cutting up the chicken in to bite sized bits. My only complaint is that it was super salty. I didn't add any extra salt so the salt must have come from the golden mushroom soup. I would recommend searching for some low sodium golden mushroom soup and then adding salt later if you feel it needs it. If I make this again next time, I will also add some broccoli and fresh chopped tomatoes, maybe even mushrooms. Peas would be a good addition as well.

Golden Parmesan Chicken Recipe

Reviewed: Jan. 27, 2010

Very delicious and buttery but not too greasy. The sauce is what really makes this recipe delicious. If you and your family loves garlic, add one or two more cloves.

Chicken in Green Sauce

Reviewed: Jan. 27, 2010

This dish has a light flavor but extremely tasty. Adding sauteed mushrooms would be nice. Substitute red wine for a different flavor and use baby spinach leaves if watercress isn't readily available.

Butternut Squash Bisque

Reviewed: Dec. 16, 2009

Wow! My husband and I both loved this bisque. It's both sweet and savory and was the perfect accompaniment to a sweet pasta dish. I pretty much followed this recipe word for word except that I baked all of the squash in the roasting pan and then pretty much omitted step three entirely. I added a few ladles full of the reserved liquid to the soup mixture before blending to give it a little bit more sweetness. To make up for leaving out step 3, I didn't blend the mixture as long in the blender leaving a bit chunkier texture. I topped it with some toasted slivered almonds. Yum! It turned out perfectly and froze beautifully. It was even better two weeks later when I pulled it out of the freezer and reheated it.

Fresh Peach Salsa

Reviewed: Sep. 26, 2009

This salsa was really, really good. I would definitely recommend putting the sugar in last and tasting it before you add any sugar. I didn't need it at all because it ended up plenty sweet. I did add some salt and pepper and used some Tabasco sauce to give it a kick. It was excellent for dipping some tortilla chips in and I think it would be fantastic on chicken, beef, or fish. My husband absolutely could not stop eating this salsa. He had to tell himself to stop eating it but he couldn't. A definite keeping in my home now.

Beef and Bean Chimichangas

Reviewed: Mar. 10, 2009

It was good. My family all commented on how yummy it was. I, on the other hand thought that it was a bit too heavy. A little like Taco Bell.

Mama's Best Broiled Tomato Sandwich

Oh my gosh. So delicious. I followed the recipe exactly and it was great. Even my husband who scowled at the thought of tomato sandwiches raved about the deliciousness.

Slow Cooker Pulled Pork

Reviewed: Mar. 4, 2009

Holy this was quick, easy and delicious. I used left over pork from the roast I made the night before. I just put the root beer in a skillet and cooked the left over meat in the root beer for 1.5 hours. The meat fell apart and was so tasty. I'll definitely make this when I am looking to impress someone.

Strawberry Spinach Salad I

Reviewed: Mar. 4, 2009

I can't believe how delicious this turned out. By far one of the best salads I've ever had in my life. I added blue cheese and avocados since they were on sale. THis will become a regular in our household!

Marinated Pork Roast

Reviewed: Mar. 4, 2009

This was sooooo tasty and super easy to make. I didn't make a single change to the ingredients but I did put my roast (with all of the marinade) in a roasting pan with some potatoes and carrots and cooked the roast and vegetables in my oven at 350F for 75 minutes. Quicker and the pork steaks were the perfect texture. Cooking roasts in my crockpot tend to turn the roast into shredded pork. I heard my neighbors in the hall comment about how "something smells soooooo good!" The whole family loved how flavorful the pork was and I will definitely be making this again.

Chocolate Surprise Cupcakes

Reviewed: Feb. 22, 2009

These were only Okay for me. Edible, but all of the rave reviews had my hopes up high. I personally thought that they tasted better strait out of the oven as they were nice and moist and just the perfect sweetness as written. But over night, the tops became crunchy and the crunchy tops, moist center combination was just weird. I would definitely use a whip cream, or cream cheese frosting with this next time. You definitely don't want to use a frosting that is too sweet. I used a chocolate butter cream frosting and the sweetness and flavor of the frosting was overpowering and detracted from the flavor of the cupcakes.

Creamy Chocolate Frosting

Reviewed: Feb. 14, 2009

Very good and tasty! My husband and I found it very sweet. Good think I paired it with a not so sweet cupcake. I was only able to frost about 15 cupcakes though. I would double it next time just to be sure.

Fry Bread I

Reviewed: Feb. 14, 2009

Very easy and quite tasty just as it is. I use this recipe to make some delicious Indian tacos with refried beans, cheese, lettuce, tomatoes, and sour cream. My family begs me to make this dish. I personally found that over working it does make the texture chewier, however, the finished product is less greasy and easier to handle so, I purposely over knead it.

Honey Ginger Carrots

Reviewed: Feb. 14, 2009

Good vegetable side dish. I steamed the carrots in a steamer for 5 minutes instead of boiling them and they were perfectly tender. I think next time I'll add some more lemon juice.

Carnitas Filling

Reviewed: Feb. 14, 2009

This was pretty good but I agree with others that it didn't cook long enough to really flavor the pork. Next time I'll put these ingredients in my slow cooker and see what results.

Tex-Mex Rice

Reviewed: Feb. 14, 2009

Very tasty and easy side dish. I substituted the green pepper and onion for a small can of diced green chilies and it was just perfect. Hubby said it was the best Mexi rice he'd ever tasted. I'd say that's a win.
