This soup was delicious! We did add a little thyme, a chicken boullion cube and a little more salt. We also used Grandmas noodles II instead of rice and didn't add the almonds since my daughter hates nuts.

Spaghetti Sauce II

Reviewed: Nov. 20, 2011

Delicious and easy. I did add some red peppers, used ground beef, and since I don't use wine and didn't have any appropriate substitutions I used chicken broth instead of wine. The sauce was very good and a little too thick (probably because of 2 lbs of ground beef) that I added an extra 14 oz of diced tomatoes.

Tomato Chicken Parmesan

Reviewed: Nov. 6, 2011

My daughter says "It was the most fantastic dinner I've ever had for my birthday." I only used one egg and put only part of the bread crumb mixture in a a bag to coat the chicken and had some of it left for a quick lunch another day. Thanks for an easy and delicious recipe.

Roasted Vegetable Ziti Bake

Reviewed: Sep. 25, 2011

Delicious!! The one major change I made was that I chopped the veggies & put in a ziploc to coat w/ olive oil and salt. Then I grilled them in my grill basket. There was no way I was going to have the oven on that long. I also doubled the sauce and used some of the noodles and sauce to make up a hamburger version for my husband. I made minor substitutions based on what was in my garden: red pepper instead of yellow, swiss chard instead of spinach. And I'm sure I used way more cheese than that. I don't measure cheese and also put some in the middle layer. Oh and I used fresh tomatoes but only because I was in the process of peeling a bunch and petting them ready to bottle.

Chocolate Yummies

Reviewed: Jul. 14, 2011

Awesome! and super easy, the missionaries that were over dinner asked for the recipe :) I forgot the rice crispies but it was still delish! I did add a few more marshmallows to make sure the crackers were completely covered and my daughter and I thought we could still put more but that's just our preference. I might try it with milk choc chips too. Update: another reviewer said the crackers went soggy the next day, I have no idea why hers did. I covered my pan with plastic wrap and the were just as good the next day.

Pasta Pomodoro

Reviewed: Jul. 11, 2011

This was delicious! I did add chicken that I cooked in olive oil with garlic and red pepper. This is definitely a new favorite main dish but would be fantastic without the meat as a side dish. Thank you!

Italian Bread I

Reviewed: Jul. 11, 2011

This bread was very very good! I rated 4 because I made a few changes. I added thyme and sage like another reviewer suggested. I put about 1 tsp of each. I also put in more cheese than it called for because my family loves cheese. Mine turned out perfect with 60 minutes to cook. Very good recipe thank you! Even a hit with the 9 year old!

Chris' Bay Area Burger

Reviewed: Jul. 3, 2011

these were good but not the best, I like the basil flavor. I reduced the salt to 1 tsp as many reviewers recommended and used fresh basil. I agree with many reviewers that they don't go with the "typical" hamburger toppings, better with a toasted bun and some mayo, tomato and cheese.

Frozen Strawberry Cheesecake Sandwich Cookies

Reviewed: Jun. 2, 2011

Super good and easy. I used fresh strawberries about 1 1/4 cups (sliced before pureeing them) and put them in the food processor until they were small chunks. I used strawberry flavored cool whip only because that's what happened to be in my freezer. Next time I will put in more strawberries.

Cornish Game Hens with Garlic and Rosemary

Reviewed: Jun. 1, 2011

Very good! I would also suggest to double the sauce to have enough gravy. Otherwise very delicious for a first time hen maker.

Lemon Blueberry Cheesecake

Reviewed: May 15, 2011

Rating the topping only!!! My daughters made Basic Cheesecake from this site and then this blueberry topping. Used fresh berries. They did not process it in the blender, just left the berries whole. We had enough topping only because one daughter and my son don't like topping on theirs. I suggest doubling the topping so you have enough.

Basic Cheesecake

Reviewed: May 15, 2011

Yummy!!! My daughter's made this for me for Mother's Day dinner and the only downside I can see is that I probably gained ten lbs since I ate about half of this by myself! They made the topping from Lemon Blueberry Cheesecake from this site. But if you make the topping don't process in blender and double it.

Hudson's Baked Tilapia with Dill Sauce

Reviewed: May 15, 2011

Very good. The sauce was delicious too. I put lemon juice on the fish then sprayed with Pam and added the spices. I didn't measure the Cajun seasoning, just sprinkled it on both sides of the fish and grilled it. I added a little more lemon to the sauce.

Sloppy Joe Sandwiches

Reviewed: Mar. 14, 2011

I did add onion since I was already making my old sloppy joe recipe before I decided to try something new for a change. This was similar to my recipe but a little more stuff in it. I enjoyed the flavorful sauce with just a touch of sweetness. I did 4x the recipe using 2 lbs of gr beef and I didn't time it but think I only cooked it for about 15 min. Thanks for a great and easy recipe.

Restaurant-Style Taco Meat Seasoning

Reviewed: Feb. 14, 2011

Very good flavor. Didn't really know what corn flour was but used corn starch, could have used a little less or more water. DH said I don't need to buy that mix stuff any more :) Thanks
