Chicken Nuggets

Reviewed: Dec. 14, 2009
Terrific! Made as is, and they turned out delicious. We gobbled them up. Placed seasonings and butter-coated chicken pieces in a ziploc bag as another reviewer suggested which made this recipe quick & easy.

Mall Pretzels

Reviewed: Nov. 1, 2008
So delicious and so simple. Used bread flour for all required flour, still turned out great. These were gone the first day! Will make again.

Valentino's Pizza Crust

Reviewed: Nov. 1, 2008
Delicious, quick, & easy. This recipe is similar to the "Quick & Easy Pizza Crust" recipe on this website, but the texture and taste were a bit better. We'll be using this one from now on.

Groovy Green Smoothie

Reviewed: Sep. 11, 2008
This was great- I told my son I had a "green slimy smoothie" for him and he was sold. I used watermelon (about 4 slices) instead of the apple, tasted and looked great! Also made great popsicles when frozen in a popsicle mold.

Campfire Veggies

Reviewed: Aug. 18, 2008
The grill really added a delicious charcoal taste to this, and the butter completes the flavor & texture. Will make again! No changes made to recipe.

Hearty Breakfast Cookies

Reviewed: Aug. 12, 2008
Although I live in a house of picky eaters, I was still surprised no one would eat these. These taste a little too "healthy" for my tastes- you can't really taste the peanut butter, just more of a whole-grain taste. Next time, I'll try adding a banana like another reviewer suggested, and double the peanut butter.

Baked French Fries I

Reviewed: Aug. 12, 2008
These are truly restaurant quality. Very delicious, will make again. Only had to cut baking time in half, otherwise made as is.

Zesty Slow Cooker Chicken Barbecue

Reviewed: Aug. 12, 2008
This is as good (if not better) than my favorite BBQ restaurant shredded chicken. Took another reviewer's advice and slow-cooked in chicken broth for 4 hours, then drained and added all sauce ingredients (after shredding) and turned out perfect. Thanks for the recipe!

Baby Back Ribs

Reviewed: Jul. 30, 2008
I had too many ribs to fit in my slow cooker so I made this along with the Slow Cooker Barbecue Ribs recipe from this site. I used rib rub and marinated in Stubb's barbecue sauce the night before, and removed the membrane. I also cooked in 225 degree oven for 4 hours like other reviewers suggested. However, the slow cooker ribs were far superior, and despite my efforts to baste the ribs in sauce every so often, these were still not as tender and moist as I like. I have prepared ribs in the past by boiling and then baking, maybe boiling these in water before putting in the oven would produce better results? Anyway, I will stick with the slow cooker method from now on.

Eggplant Parmesan II

Reviewed: Jul. 30, 2008
Superb. I salted the eggplant for 20 minutes and then rinsed with cold water as other reviewers suggested. I used a home-made marinara sauce (from Giada De Laurentiis' Everyday Italian- try it!) and only needed one eggplant to fill an entire 9 X 13 pan. This is better than the restaurant versions I've had. Also used Penzey's pasta sprinkle to season.

Slow Cooker Barbecue Ribs

Reviewed: Jul. 25, 2008
As other reviewers suggested, I used 2 cups BBQ sauce and 1 cup ketchup instead of the 2 cups ketchup/1 cup chili sauce. I also used a rib rub before putting these in the oven. Otherwise, made exactly as recipe stated and these came out perfect and tender. They were falling off the bones. The first step of putting them in a 400 degree oven browned them just enough so they came out a good, caramelized brown color after 8 hours in the slow cooker. Delicious!

Sweet Restaurant Slaw

Reviewed: Jul. 25, 2008
I have tried the Restaurant Style Coleslaw 1 on this website and prefer this recipe much more. It tasted excellent made exactly as is. Not too much dressing and not too little, and it was just the combination of sweetness and tanginess I was looking for.

Summer Beer II

Reviewed: Jul. 24, 2008
This is a very refreshing drink with just a bit of tartness from the lemonade. It's one of those mixed drinks where you don't taste the alcohol, so don't worry about mixing vodka & beer. We served this to dinner guests and they loved it too- highly recommended!

Playgroup Granola Bars

Reviewed: Jul. 23, 2008
These are excellent. I omitted the oil and added 1 mashed up banana + 1/4 cup peanut butter, as well as added chocolate chips with the raisins. These taste great and were so easy to make. I didn't have the problem of them crumbling apart like other reviewers, they are a very good chewy texture (maybe b/c of the peanut butter & banana?).

Extra Easy Hummus

Reviewed: Jul. 19, 2008
This was alright. I would cut back on the cumin and add fresh squeezed juice from a lemon next time.

Chinese Napa Cabbage Salad

Reviewed: Jul. 19, 2008
This was mediocre. The sesame oil flavor seemed to dominate the whole dish, which was not very appetizing. I used a bag of cole slaw mix instead of the cabbage as another reviewer suggested and added sunflower seeds instead of the almonds. I would cut way back on the sesame oil (maybe only add a tsp. or so) and add chopped pears to this if I made it again. I think the fruit would compliment the strong flavor of the dressing.

Corn Dog Muffins

Reviewed: Jul. 14, 2008
This was quick and easy to make and quite the kid-pleaser. I used cornbread muffin mix instead of bread. The cornbread muffins were just sweet enough. Omitted the cheese and still tasted great. I would like to try making these in mini-muffin pans in the future with slices of hot dogs as an appetizer.

Banana Milk Drink

Reviewed: Jul. 12, 2008
I'm not a huge banana fan, but this was soo creamy and delicious! Sure, it is a little 'warm' for a smoothie-type drink, but that didn't really bother me. The cinnamon on top is a must. Try this, you won't be sorry!

Ice Pops

Reviewed: Jul. 11, 2008
This tasted like the traditional ice pops you get at the grocery store. I used 4 of those individual fruit punch KoolAid packets (the ones that you are supposed to throw in your water bottle) and omitted the sugar (they already have it). Also, used sugar-free strawberry Jello. Very good for cooling off on a hot day. Note: recipe made 12, not 6 popsicles.

Quick and Easy Pizza Crust

Reviewed: Jul. 7, 2008
This will be our go-to recipe for pizza crust from now on, replacing store-bought frozen and home-made recipes. I was attracted to this recipe because I've had many failures with pizza crust before- this was quick, easy, AND delicious! Added Penzey's pasta sprinkle to the mix but otherwise made as is. For those who like to buy the jars of yeast (instead of the packets), use 2 1/4 tsp. Yumm!
