Best Brownies

Reviewed: Nov. 23, 2009
Doubled the recipe and it turned out great. Definitely not cake-like, which I prefer. Didn't make the frosting and the pan still disappeared. A good base recipe for adding in fudge, nuts, etc.

Pineapple Pork Chop Suey

Reviewed: Jun. 13, 2009
Very good! Used some leftover porkchops from the grill. Also used fresh, chopped pineapple, so I substituted OJ for the reserved liquid.

Marinated Spicy Pork Chops

Reviewed: May 31, 2009
Very good marinade! Instead of 3/4 cup of soy sauce, my husband used 1/2 cup and then added 1/4 cup of Worcestershire sauce. He also added 2 T. of cayenne pepper for a kick.

Burrito Pie

Reviewed: May 16, 2009
Pretty darn good! Even with some modifications I had to make due to my pantry. Only had 1 lb of ground beef, and no taco sauce (I used a few dashes of cayenne pepper). I used a 8" pie plate, and not all of the meat mix fit. Yum!

Chocolate Chip Banana Muffins

Reviewed: May 11, 2009
Turned out awesome, even tho I made a few mistakes! First, I only had 1/4 cup of oil on hand, so I added 1/4 cup of applesauce. Also, I didn't have plain yogurt, but substituted vanilla. I also just dumped everything together and mixed. Delicious!

Zucchini Egg Bake

Reviewed: Apr. 16, 2009
This was really good and easy! I did 2/3 the recipe, and sauteed a 1/2 lb of sausage with the zucchini, onion and garlic. I also omitted the salt and butter because of the sausage. I put it all in a 8x8 square dish and it was perfect after 25 minutes!

Sparkling Punch

Reviewed: Mar. 14, 2009
Delicious! I served this at a ladies tea yesterday and my friends thought it was quite tasty. I made it with pink lemonade and floated lime slices which was a nice color addition to our tea sandwiches. I've already been asked to bring this to a baby shower!

Waldorf Salad II

Reviewed: Feb. 27, 2009
Very delicious! I did opt to use 1/4 cup real mayo and 1/4 cup plain yogurt. So many compliments at a ladies luncheon!

Simple Savory Pork Roast

Reviewed: Feb. 11, 2009
Pretty darn good. Followed the recipe exactly as written, adding some carrots to the baking dish. Next time, I'll put foil over it and add a pinch of sugar to balance the seasonings.

Refried Bean Enchiladas

Reviewed: Feb. 10, 2009
These were just okay. Kind of runny and one-dimensional for our pallets, as written. Would be easily remedied with some additional ingredients (meat, veggies, etc). The "sauce" was great and did its job.

My Own Mickmack

Reviewed: Feb. 2, 2009
This recipe is easy, the flavors are right on, and has the potential to be delicious. I learned 4 things: (1) do check your diced tomatoes to be sure they aren't canned in balsamic vinegar - ew (2) large pasta, like penne, sticks out of the "sauce" and hardens (3) this would fit in a 9x9 and keep everything moist and (4) everything is already cooked, so the 1 hour cooking time dried it out. Next time I'll use smaller pasta, put it in a 9x9, and only cook for 30 minutes, topping it with cheese in the last few minutes.

Taco Seasoning I

Reviewed: Jan. 27, 2009
Really great! I tripled the recipe to have some on hand. If I had more chili powder, I would have made even more. A staple in my kitchen. 2T works for a pound of meat in our house.

Spicy Bean Salsa

Reviewed: Jan. 27, 2009
This is fan-freaking-tastic! I did make a lot of substitutions based on my pantry, but I think the basic essence was maintained. Used pinto beans instead of black-eyed-peas, green chiles instead of jalapenos, Newman's Tuscan Italian dressing, SteamFresh frozen corn (microwaved first, duh), didn't have green pepper, and voila! A healthy treat which will be served on top of Zesty Chicken Meatloaf (check it out).

Broccoli and Garlic Penne Pasta

Reviewed: Jan. 26, 2009
This recipe was decent. I threw frozen broccoli in and it worked fine. I did use 1.5 cups of broth, added some poultry rub, and then 2 T. of cornstarch near the end, which gave it the perfect consistency. I also used Pampered Chef All-Natural Seasoning instead of the recommended seasonings. It was a bit salty which was probably my fault. Next time I'll add a little sugar or agave.

Scalloped Potatoes and Onions

Reviewed: Jan. 25, 2009
Only had small organic potatoes on hand, so I used 9 of them instead of 5. Otherwise, I followed the recipe to the letter. It had a great texture and was super-easy, but I wanted a more robust flavor. Next time I'll kick up the spices a notch.

Roquefort Pear Salad

Reviewed: Jan. 23, 2009
My mom makes something like this, and this recipe seemed very close. I took it to a military social function and everyone raved, and also thought I was some sort of foodie. I used Annie's Organic Yellow Mustard and it was a bit overpowering (to me). I think next time I'll halve it.

Chicken Pot Pie IX

Reviewed: Jan. 23, 2009
So delicious! I didn't have peas, but put in 2 small potatoes. I didn't double the sauce, as others had recommended, and the dish was plenty moist and not runny at all. Even better the next day.

Chocolate Ganache

Reviewed: Jan. 20, 2009
It really is THAT easy. Even more so when done in a KitchenAid. Poured it over some chilled pre-cut rice krispy treats (on waxed paper) to make a special treat for my students. Divine. Be careful, the ganache "sweats" when left at room temperature and permanently changes the appearance of whatever it is atop.

Tex-Mex Pork

Reviewed: Jan. 20, 2009
Delicious with chicken I had on hand. I just cut the chicken breasts into large chunks and threw them in raw. Probably even better with pork! The type of BBQ sauce really impacts the flavor. I used Annie's Organic Maple and it was wonderful. My husband and I discovered we liked it better over a bowl of brown rice.

Slow-Cooked White Chili

Reviewed: Jan. 20, 2009
A bit watery and bland for us as written. Used an immersion blender to get some thickness and a dollop of sour cream for good measure. Also ramped up the spice-factor with extra cumin, chili powder and whatever other seasonings may have bee in my site. This brought it up to a 5.
