Spicy Rapid Roast Chicken

Reviewed: Apr. 28, 2009
I needed a fairly quick way to prepare a whole chicken this evening and so I tried this recipe. I was using a 5 lb. chicken, so I doubled the spices. Also, I was out of cayenne and so I substituted white pepper for that. I rubbed the spices on top of and under the skin, then placed on a rack in a baking pan. Since I was using a bigger chicken, I left it at 450 for 30 minutes instead of 20. It was great!

Spicy Slow Cooker Black Bean Soup

Reviewed: Jan. 29, 2009
I made this yesterday and thought it was delicious. I soaked my beans overnight, used the recommended ingredients except for using pickled jalapeno slices (about 1/4 cup) because I didn't have fresh and also I used minced garlic instead of garlic powder. I cooked it on low for about 10 hours then used an immersion blender to thicken it up. We served this soup with shredded cheddar and fresh cilantro. It was spicy, but not too much for us. We will definitely make this again!!

Prosciutto Wrapped Asparagus

Reviewed: Jan. 27, 2009
I made this Saturday and loved it!!! The only thing I did differently was cook it longer. I actually forgot it. I probably left it in the oven 15-20 minutes. However, it was larger asparagus, and I think it needed it anywya. It was still a little crispy when I took it out. The leftovers later were just as good - maybe better - at room temperature. We'll definitely make this again!!

Sour Cream and Onion Bread

Reviewed: Jan. 20, 2009
I made this last night to go with some homemade beef stew my husband made. It went really great together! It is a very rich bread, so not something I would want all the time, but it was great with the stew. I did make a few changes. I used half bread flour & half whole wheat, as suggested by other reviewers. I also added 4 tsp. of vital wheat gluten to help it rise. I didn't have wheat germ, so that was omitted. We will definitely make this bread again. It would also make great rolls!

Spinach Quiche

Reviewed: Dec. 28, 2008
This was a great recipe! I only used a tablespoon of butter and sauteed fresh baby portobello mushrooms with the garlic. I left out the onion (I don't like them) and used plain feta because that's what I had. It was delicious!

Beer Margaritas

Reviewed: Nov. 22, 2008
The first time I made this, I used Sprite instead of water, as several other reviewers suggested. We really liked the outcome, however it was a little sweet for our taste. Last night, I made another batch using the water. It was better, but still a little sweet, so we added a 2nd bottle of beer. (We used Miller Chill.) Delicious!!!! It was perfect for our tastes, and this is how we'll make it from now on: Per the recipe + a 2nd bottle of beer. :)

Chicken Wing Dip

Reviewed: Nov. 18, 2008
I made this for some friends Saturday, and it was a big hit. I used blue cheese instead of ranch and also used more chicken than called for, however I think next time I will stick to the 2 cups as this was a little thick with the extra. I also made in the crockpot because we'd be snacking all evening. Great recipe!

Grilled Bacon-Wrapped Olives

Reviewed: Oct. 5, 2008
We had this Saturday when we were tailgating. My friend wrapped up the olives before we went, so they just had to be thrown on the grill when we got there. Before wrapping, she put a little bit of canned cream cheese in each one. YUM!

Home Style Macaroni and Cheese

Reviewed: May 3, 2008
I made this recipe to take to dinner at the home of some of our friends. The only changes I made was to substitute some of the milk with evaporated milk and also to use only half of the breadcrumb mixture. It was a huge hit and is definitely be something I will make again!

Jalapeno Popper Spread

Reviewed: Feb. 4, 2008
I made this Friday night for a group of friends, and it was a big hit. After reading reviews, I added some breadcrumbs to the top before baking in the oven. I served it with New York Style Sea Salt Bagel Crisps. I used two cans of green chiles and no jalapenos b/c of some of the people that would be there, but next time I'll definitely add the jalapenos to make it more spicy!

Irish Car Bomb II

Reviewed: Jan. 31, 2008
My friends and I love these. I don't like Guinness alone, but this way it tastes like chocolate milk. You have to drink it all at once, though. And careful...they sneak up on you!

Maria's Stuffed Chicken Breasts

Reviewed: Dec. 13, 2007
I made this last night and got several compliments from my husband. I didn't change much from the original recipe other than leaving out the eggs and adding Italian seasoning & fresh ground pepper to the filling. It was delicious and something we'll definitely have again!

New England Dinner

Reviewed: Nov. 7, 2007
We've made this a couple of times now and love it. Following other reviewers' suggestions, I brown and drain the kielbasa before adding to the casserole. I also added salt & lots of freshly ground pepper. Then I pour 2 cups of chicken broth over everything rather than 1 cup of water. I use my stoneware casserole & lid to bake for an hour. With my changes, I'd give it 5 stars, but I think as it is would be too bland for our tastes.

Pecan-Oatmeal Pancakes

Reviewed: Nov. 1, 2007
I've made these pancakes twice now and love them. I did add some vanilla the second time (as someone suggested) since they were a tad bland w/o it. I keep these in baggies in the freezer and throw a couple in the toaster to eat on the way to work. Very filling!

Chewy Chocolate Chip Oatmeal Cookies

Reviewed: Oct. 11, 2007
These cookies are wonderful! I did have to make a couple of substitutions - pecans for walnuts b/c that's all I had. I also had to use all brown sugar because I was out of white. They were still great. I can't wait to make them again!

Espresso Bark

Reviewed: Aug. 30, 2007
I made this last night using bittersweet chocolate chips. I didn't have wax paper, so I used aluminum foil and it worked fine. I also left out the white chocolate sprinkled on top. Delicious! Thanks for the recipe!

Frozen Strawberry Margarita

Reviewed: Aug. 15, 2007
I made a variation of these last night using the whole 6 oz. can of frozen limeade and also adding 2 oz. of margarita mix. Very tasty!

Spinach and Mushroom Quesadillas

Reviewed: Aug. 15, 2007
We had these last night using white mushrooms instead of portabellas b/c that's what we had. Also, I added some paprika and chile powder to season up the filling a little, and I didn't use any oil to brown the quesadillas - they did fine in our nonstick skillet w/o any added fat. They were really good!

Dill Pickle Soup

Reviewed: Aug. 14, 2007
Yes, I did submit this, but I thought I'd review it as well. It's one of my favorites! It doesn't have a strong pickle flavor, but rather all the spices combine to give it a very unique taste. I found a similar recipe a long time ago and have modified it by my tastes to what you see posted here. I love it. I hope you enjoy it too!

Spicy Pretzels

Reviewed: Feb. 22, 2007
These are great! I scaled down the recipe to work with one one-pound bag of mini pretzels and made a batch yesterday. The only change I made was to substitute garlic powder for garlic salt, and I was out of cayenne pepper so I used chipotle chile powder. They were delicious! I did not bake them as other reviewers suggested, and they were not too greasy.
