Reviews

omitted the cereal because i didnt have any. The chicken came out crispy on the outside with lots of flavor, and moist on the inside. Instead of cutting in half I pounded the chicken enough to even it out. Loved it, will make it again.

Mediterranean Puff Pastry Chicken

Reviewed: Feb. 28, 2009

I didn't marinade, didn't have the time. It came out great! I forgot the pesto to, I was in a hurry, made this so quickly it was nice and easy. Used only 1 chicken breast, cut it in half so it was thinner, then again the other way so i had 4 smaller pieces. I made 4 smaller sized puffs. Served with steamed veggies. yummy, will make again.

Chicken Marsala Florentine

Reviewed: Jan. 11, 2009

I chopped the chicken into pieces before cooking, left out the spinach, used 3/4 marsala, and 1 cup of chicken broth, only used 1 tbsp of butter. I added flour/water mixture until it thickened and added pine nuts at end. It was a nice pasta dish.

After-Thanksgiving Turkey Soup

Reviewed: Dec. 27, 2008

Was just ok, it lacked flavor, I tried to add more bouillon, and pepper, and also some thyme and dried garlic. Still missing some kick. But a pretty good soup.

Tuna Noodle Casserole from Scratch

Reviewed: Dec. 9, 2008

I thought it was bland, just like other reviewers, so I took some suggestions and added nutmeg, red pepper flakes, and thyme. This absolutely is necessary and makes this bland dish spectacular! Love the crunchy breadcrumb topping, I used extra sharp cheddar cheese. Will make this again and again.

Creole Tuna

Reviewed: Dec. 6, 2008

I'm giving this 5 stars because it was the EASIEST recipe I have ever made in my life. It took less time to make the sauce than it did to cook the rice! For busy people, this is a great dish to cook on a week night. I made it exactly as written, except I did not have milk, only heavy whipping cream. So I filled the 1/3 cup partially with the cream and the rest with water. The sauce thickened really quickly, so I used a little more water to get the right consistency. Really nice recipe, thanks!

Brussels Sprouts in Mustard Sauce

Reviewed: Dec. 1, 2008

I followed another users advice and baked in oven at 400 for 20 min. Came out really nice, except I should have left them in there for longer because they were still a bit tough. Great flavor though!

Lemon and Thyme Lamb Chops

Reviewed: Nov. 10, 2008

very nice flavor and tender. The only changes I made were how to cook. I didn't want to mess with the grill so I put them on a foil lined cooking sheet, baked at 500 for 10 minutes then dropped to 350 for another 5 or until its no longer red inside. i marinated them for 3 hours. really nice recipe!
