Wanted to use up the rest of a smoked brisket that my hubby had made over the weekend. This sauce made for the perfect enchiladas! Complimented the smokiness of the meat wonderfully! I've been making my own enchilada sauce since moving to South Florida. Never thought about using dried chiles. Thanks for the recipe Christine!

Sopapilla Cheesecake Pie

Reviewed: Oct. 8, 2011

Easiest thing I've done in a long time and got so many rave reviews. Son made me promise not to take this to work (he wanted it all to himself) and also asked that I start making IT for his birthday instead of a cake. I thought it a bit rich (cut very small squares) but tasty. Made it exactly as directed. Had to bake 10 mins longer. Probably will bake about 15 mins longer next time. Very good though.

Oven Pancake with Apples

Reviewed: Sep. 4, 2011

Excellent! I've made this several times as written. I've also made it and increased the apples and added brown sugar to the apple mixture. You just can't mess this one up, no matter what you do. So easy and so good! Thanks for sharing!

Potato Leek Soup III

Reviewed: Jun. 26, 2010

Quick. Easy. Tasty. I am counting calories so I did only use 1/2 the butter and used 1% milk instead of heavy cream. The flavor of the leeks comes through nicely. It was delicious!

Garden Pasta Salad

Reviewed: Aug. 15, 2009

I used Romano cheese and bottled Italian salad dressing, adding enough dressing to season until I was leaving for get together and then added more, as it had all been soaked up by pasta, and carried in a large zip loc bag. The cheese adds a salty flavor so be careful if you season. I cut grape tomatoes in half and also added broccoli florets and black olives to other veggies. Quick and easy. Loved it.

Buttery Cranberry Pie

Reviewed: Jan. 3, 2009

Very good. I used filling as a cobbler instead of a pie. I made 2 cobblers (doubled the filling recipe). One was as recipe indicates and other I added sliced apples (2 apples). Family and friends enjoyed both. I will definitely make again.

Apricot Nectar Cake I

Reviewed: Aug. 19, 2008

I was looking for a recipe to use some dried apricots that I had. I boiled them and then pureed them with the boiling liquid and that is what I used in place of the "nectar". I also added 1/4 cup of water to the mix. Easy recipe. Took to work. Everyone like the cake.

Blackberry Cobbler

Reviewed: Jul. 12, 2008

Excellent cobbler! I had 3 different kinds of berries in my freezer that I was trying to figure out how to use and this was it. Absolutely delicious! I can see using many different types of fruit for this cobbler. I was a little put off when I read the recipe and saw that I had to roll out a dough but it was very easy dough to work with and I was done in a jif. I followed the recipe as is (except for using different berries) and thought it was perfect. Can't wait to try apples. Hopefully, someday (when I have some!), my own grandchildren will remember "MY" cobbler. Thanks for the recipe!

I did add more peppers than called for but we lot more heat (spice). I will add a little less water the next time to make it a little thicker. Good combo of ingreds for a nice flavor. Thanks for the submission.

Authentic Mexican Hot Sauce

Reviewed: Jul. 12, 2008

This is pretty good sauce. It was easy to make. I didn't have the guajillo chile so I subbed a chipotle. It gave it a nice smoky flavor. I just read that you suggested an arbol chile for heat. I have those. I will have to make again to try with the arbols. Interesting sauce. Would like it a little thicker though. Going to play with the recipe now that I've tried it the way you posted it. Thanks for a nice hot sauce recipe.

Cantaloupe Bread with Praline Glaze

Reviewed: Jun. 21, 2008

Hmmm...not sure about the flavor...yet. It's not that I don't like it but I'm not sure if I do either. Putting some butter on a slice, it was good. I think it needs more spice to it or be sweeter..not sure. I'll tweek the recipe the next time and spice it up a bit to my likings. It IS a very moist bread. I will definitely try again because it seems that,like bananas, I always have some cantaloupe that I need to use up every now and then and this is such a good idea. Thanks for posting the recipe.

Cumin and Coriander Chickpea Salad

Reviewed: Jun. 21, 2008

This recipe is very similar to what my friend from India makes. She doesn't use a recipe and just throws things in a bowl so it is hard for me to get recipes from her. I did use both red and yellow peppers (for added color) and halved the recipe but other than that I followed the recipe to a "T". My friend also makes this same recipe using canned corn in place of the chickpeas. She always has something interesting and new and I always look forward to eating at her house! Thanks for the recipe! I will definitely make again and again.

Frosted Banana Bars

Reviewed: Jun. 21, 2008

Absolutely delicious! I frosted the "bars" (more like a snack cake) with the "Cream Cheese Frosting II" recipe on this site after they were completely cool. Wow! It was perfect. These were not real sweet and neither was the frosting. Very moist with the addition of the sour cream. I will definitely make this again and again. EVERYONE at work loved them!

Cream Cheese Frosting II

Reviewed: Jun. 21, 2008

Delicious! For someone (like me) who doesn't like icky-sweet frosting/icings, this was perfect! Used it to frost the "Frosted Banana Bars" recipe on this site. EVERYONE at work loved it! (I halved the recipe for what I was making and it was just enough)
