Easy Shrimp in Creamy Basil Sauce

Reviewed: Nov. 10, 2009
This was perfect! The only change I made was to use chicken instead of shrimp because my 18 year old won't eat shrimp! And I used fat free half n' half. There was plenty of cream sauce and I only used 1 1/2 cups of the half n' half. The flavor of the garlic, fresh tomtatoes and basil really comes through. I served it with grated parmesan cheese. This is a recipe I'll use often!

Cheeseburger Pockets-ci Recipe

Reviewed: Nov. 7, 2009
This was so very good! The only changes I made was to use chopped up dill pickles instead of dill pickle relish (I couldn't find this) and I used real onions instead of dried. I also toasted the sesame seeds. Also, I doubled the recipe and it was just enough for 8 burgers. Will definitely be making this very often!

I have made this recipe a couple of times using different fruits such as apples w/cinnamon and berries w/ bananas! They always turn out perfect! This is such an easy recipe! You can't go wrong with this great recipe!

Best Ever Meatloaf with Brown Gravy

Reviewed: Oct. 18, 2009
I used this recipe for the gravy only. This was a very good and very easy brown gravy recipe! I made it as written except I didn't have any mushrooms, but it was still very tasty! I would of liked it to be a little thicker, so next time I'll add less liquid. This will be my gravy recipe from now on!

Dawn's Candied Walnuts

Reviewed: Jun. 18, 2009
These are very good! They have a nice sweet cinnamon flavor! They took a lot longer than 10 minutes to roast but everything else was perfect! I'll be serving these to my guests on Father's Day...if I can stop eating them!

Pepper Jelly Appetizer

Reviewed: Jun. 10, 2009
This was very good! I love the combination of flavors...hot and spicy with salty and sweet! And I love the creamy and crunchy textures also! I used a cranberry hot pepper jelly. The only thing I would do different next time is to use equal amounts of cream cheese and jelly. And I would probably warm this up in the microwave before serving. I will definitely be making this for my next party!

Extreme Chocolate Cake

Reviewed: May 11, 2009
This is a very good chocolate cake recipe! I added 1 cup of mashed bananas and I reduced the boiling water to 1/2 cup. I baked it in a 9x13" baking dish and added a crumb topping! I served this on Mother's Day and everyone loved it! It was moist and rich but not too sweet! Perfect! This will be my "go to" recipe for chocolate cakes!

Daddy Charles's Spooley

Reviewed: May 7, 2009
This is very good! It tastes like a really good sangria! I made this by the glass using 2oz. Rum, 2oz. dry red wine, 4oz. red fruit punch, 3 oz. club soda, 1/2 tsp. fresh lime juice, 1/2 tsp fresh lemon juice...and I served it in a wine glass instead of a "red plastic cup"! After drinking a couple of these you will feel "loopey"...as we call it! It really does sneak up on you, so be careful!

Almond, Apple Cinnamon Scones

Reviewed: May 4, 2009
I was worried that these might be dry, so I used almost a full cup of yogurt and doubled the milk. I also added 1 tsp. of cinnamon powder to the dry ingredients. I used only 1 tsp. of almond extract. Because I added more wet ingredients, the batter was very sticky, so I dropped the batter onto the cookie sheet in 12 equal portions and topped it with cinnamon sugar and chopped walnuts (didn't have any almonds).They were perfect! Light, moist and flavorful! Just what I wanted! Great recipe!

Hot Cross Buns

Reviewed: Apr. 11, 2009
This was very good! They are nice and fluffy! They browned up perfectly! The only thing I would change next time is that I would add a little more sugar and cinnamon...but that's just a personal preference. To make them a little sweeter and more cinnamony, I glazed them with a sweet cinnamon glaze. This was the perfect fix. I omitted the raisins because I'm not a big fan of them in rolls. Next time I'll add the orange flavored icing on top. This is a great recipe!

Strawberry Muffins

Reviewed: Feb. 3, 2009
This is a very good and very easy muffin recipe! I did as so many members suggested...I added 1/4 cup brown sugar and 1 tsp. pure vanilla extract. I used frozen strawberries that I chopped and thawed. These muffins had just the right amount of sweetness. This recipe made 13 muffins not 8. I will be making these often!

Excellent and Healthy Cornbread

Reviewed: Jan. 15, 2009
This was pretty good. I made it exactly as written! The yogurt gave it a sour dough flavor. It was perfect with "The Best Ham and Bean Soup" recipe, also from this site. I was looking for a cornbread recipe with simple ingredients that I had on hand. I also wanted it to be dense enough for dipping and this worked out fine! It wasn't too sweet which was what I also wanted.

The Best Bean and Ham Soup

Reviewed: Jan. 15, 2009
Amazingly Good! 10 Stars! I made half of this recipe. I made it as written except I didn't have veggie juice so I increased the veggie broth and the diced tomatoes. This soup doesn't need over 8 hours to cook! It was perfect after 4 hours! I served this with the "Excellent and Healthy Cornbread" recipe from this site. I will use this soup recipe from now on!

Jenn's Out Of This World Spaghetti and Meatballs

Reviewed: Jan. 14, 2009
This was very good! I'm reviewing this recipe only for the meatballs. I used a different recipe for the sauce. I made it as written except I baked mine at 400* for 20 minutes. Then I added them to the sauce. I was very skeptical about using so much parsley and oregano, but they complimented each other very nicely. This recipe is even better than the meatballs from the famous Rao's Restaurant in Harlem, N.Y... I think I'll use this recipe from now on! And that's tough for an old-fashioned Italian girl to admit!!!

Easy Mini Quiche

Reviewed: Jan. 13, 2009
This was pretty good. I made some changes so that it wouldn't be bland. I added salt to the egg mixture and I quadrupled the cheese. I also added chopped hard salami and I topped it with chopped green onions. This made it very tasty! I also liked Cindylou's idea of using a knife to loosen the quiches from the pan and then using a spoon to help remove them. I didn't have a problem with sogginess. Maybe it was because after grating the onions, I squeezed out the excess liquid. I also increased the cooking time about 10 minutes.

Quick and Easy Grilled Potatoes

Reviewed: Jan. 11, 2009
This was very good! I was looking for something different from the same old same old, and this fit the bill! I made it as written except I added seasoned salt. This was very easy and much quicker than baking them in the oven! I will surely be making this again!

I couldn't stop eating these when they came out of the oven! I like really soft biscotti, so I didn't bake them twice...I don't think I could of waited that long anyway! These are so good warm!Thanks Sueb for the recipe!

Homemade Mac and Cheese

Reviewed: Jan. 10, 2009
I think the reason so many members thought this was bland was because it has way too much milk! I agree with the member named Sweetjam...this is enough cheese sauce for a pound of pasta! I also agree to add salt and pepper. I had a problem with clumping and I don't know why! I omitted the breadcrumbs and baking step. I added chopped green onions on top for more flavor. I think if I try this again, I would use 1/2 the milk and make it hot before adding it to the cheese mixture.
