Eggplant Parmesan I

Reviewed: Jun. 30, 2009
I used cottage cheese instead of Ricotta - that is what I had on hand. I roasted the sliced eggplant in the oven to save the extra fat and calories from frying it. This was OK but I prefer the traditional eggplant parmesan. This one tasted like an eggplant lasagna....

Mango Salsa

Reviewed: Jun. 30, 2009
I added 1/2 tsp. cumin, 2 tsp. honey, 2 tbsp. red wine vinegar, juice from 2 lemons, and a sprinkle of cayenne pepper. I used chopped grape tomatoes instead of red pepper. *UPDATE* I made it again - This time I followed the recipe exactly, i just added 2tsp. of honey. It was delicious. I served it with breaded fish tacos. Delicious!

Easy Apple Cinnamon Muffins

Reviewed: Jun. 15, 2009
These were very good! I shredded the apples and added 2 tbsp. of lemon juice to them before I added the apples to the batter. For the topping, I only used brown sugar, light earth balance margarine and old fashion oats. I baked at 375 instead of 400 for about 20 minutes.

Fruity Red Smoothies

Reviewed: Jun. 15, 2009
This was so refreshing! I used crystal light fruit punch instead of the cranberry juice and it gave it a really nice fruitiness to the the drink, aside from the strawberries and raspberries. I like this shake a lot!

Barbie Doll Cake

Reviewed: Jun. 15, 2009
My daughter loved this! I made it for her 6th birthday. I did not have the wilton doll cake stand or the Pampered Chef Pan. I tried this once before with a bundt pan, but the Barbie was too tall and the hole in the middle of the bundt pan was too wide. I ended up using 2 pans - I borroed my neighbors Giant Cupcake Pan and made the cake from the top half/the frosting pan and placed that cake onto a 2nd cake made form a pie pan in order to give the cake more hight. It was the perfect size for the barbie! It also gave the dress a nice swirl from the cupcake pan! I wrapped the barbie's legs in plastic wrap and pushed her into the cake. I spread a thin layer of frosting on the cake and then made "marshmallow fondant" from this website to decorate the cake. I would recommend two things. Be careful with the barbies hair when decorating and if you use fondant, put it on the cake and then put the barbie in. I put the barbie in and then had to figure out how to get the fondant over the barbies head...it got a little messy, so I then took the barbie out, put on the fondant and then put the barbie in.

Marshmallow Fondant

Reviewed: Jun. 15, 2009
I made this with MARSHMALLOW FLUFF!!!! I definitely recommend to do it this way! Based on the previous reviews of saying to wait till the melted marshmallows cooled, I skipped the melting the marshmallows and water step and I placed a whole container of marshmallow fluff into the refrigerator over night. The next morning, I sprayed my kitchen aid very well with PAM, dumped the whole container of Marshmallow fluff into the KA and food coloring and confectioner/powdered sugar as needed. This really was not that difficult or messy at all. When the fondant was at a good consistency, I placed it into plastic wrap and into the freezer for about a 1/2 hour. I then rolled it out and it rolled really nicely. I used this fondant to cover a barbie doll cake than I made for my daughter's birthday! I spread a very thin layer of regular frosting onto the cakes surface to make sure the fondant would stick to the cake. It came out great!

Thick Fruit Whip

Reviewed: Jun. 10, 2009
I really like the tanginess from the lemon juice! I used frozen strawberries and bananas. I also used skim milk instead of the condensed milk and added some splenda. Nice and refreshing!

Chicken a la Camille

Reviewed: Jun. 9, 2009
Good simple and super-easy recipe. I used less Italian seasoning. It's a great recipe when you don't have time to marinade the chicken. The kids loved it!

Seven Layer Gelatin Salad

Reviewed: Jun. 9, 2009
It came out looking nice - but we didn't like it. Instead of evaporated milk, i used non-dairy whipping cream to make the lighter layer of the jello. If you make this recipe - make sure you have a lot of time on hand and things to do while you wait for the layers to solidify, as there are many steps.

Black Magic Cake

Reviewed: Jun. 5, 2009
This is a great cake - exactly like the "Hershey's ® 'Perfectly Chocolate' Chocolate Cake" and "Deep Dark Chocolate Cake" from this site - only this calls for buttermilk and dark coffee and the others call for milk and boiling water. I did not taste a difference between this and the other cake. It is so moist and very fluffy. I made this into a barbie cake for my daughter's birthday. My "go-to" chocolate cake.

Tina's Best BBQ Lime Chicken

Reviewed: Jun. 5, 2009
Really good! I decreased the lime to about 1/2 cup and used about 3 tbs. olive oil. I used the same amount of spices as suggested ( I omitted the cayenne - too spicy for my kids). I roasted the chicken at 450 because it was raining - but will definitely make again on the grill.

Chipotle Tilapia Tacos with Mango-Cilantro Salsa

Reviewed: Jun. 4, 2009
Good end result, but his recipe calls for a lot of steps and lots of dirty pots. I used left over fish from a previous dinner to save an extra step. I thought the black beans were a bit dry - next time I might mix the mayo mixture into the black beans and even add some cumin. I felt there were so many layers in this dish - it was too hard to close the tortillas. I left out the rice and used thinly sliced purple cabbage instead of coleslaw mix (that's what I had).

Very Berry Blueberry Smoothie

Reviewed: Jun. 3, 2009
This was interesting... I left out the ice because I used frozen strawberries and a frozen banana. I prefer strawberries as the base of smoothies though...It made a beautiful color though!
