Quick and Easy Alfredo Sauce

Reviewed: Jan. 30, 2008

I thought this was a little too cream cheesy and not enough salt. I did use half cream and half milk and real garlic instead of the powder. I may make this again in a pinch but I'll probably try something else.

Best Brownies

Reviewed: Jan. 12, 2008

Mmmmm...these were delicious. Very rich. I undercooked them a little because I do like them fudgy. I doubled the recipe. My husband has a friend over right now and they've already eaten 3/4 of the pan! Really good with Cool Whip on top. Thanks!

Oatmeal Butterscotch Cookies

Reviewed: Jan. 11, 2008

These were ok. I only had quick oats so I don't know if that changed the texture at all. They were way too sweet so I added some chocolate chips and that helped a little. I probably won't make these again.

Italian Bread Using a Bread Machine

Reviewed: Jan. 9, 2008

I'm not sure if I did something wrong here but this was just average bread. The flavor wasn't that great and it didn't rise very well. Too dense. It definitely looked nice and smelled great while baking but was a bit of a let down. Thanks anyway.

Spaghetti Mac

Reviewed: Dec. 19, 2007

I used this ebcause I didn't have any jar spaghetti sauce and I thought it was really good. My kids didn't like it though. I made a few changes to it. I used a whole pound of ground turkey. I think half a pound wouldn't be enough. I cooked the meat with the spices instead of adding them with the soup. I also added some minced garlic, italian seasoning, and pepper. I thought the tomato soup would taste weird but it didn't taste like soup at all. And I liked the macaroni noodles, it was a nice change from the spaghetti. Thanks!

Good Old Fashioned Pancakes

Reviewed: Dec. 16, 2007

Mmmm....good. I don't know if the recipe was changed after all the reviews but their is even less baking powder on the recipe than there is on some reviews saying they lowered it. Either way, these were good. I did add an extra tablespoon of sugar and some vanilla. The dough did smell like sugar cookies but didn't taste like it to me after cooked. Will definitely make again! Thanks!

French Toast Casserole

Reviewed: Dec. 9, 2007

I guess I can't give this particular recipe 3 stars since we tweaked it so much but this was our guideline. I took some other users advice and added cream cheese and brown sugar. We didn't have any vanilla so that was omitted. I used whole wheat bread with nuts because it was all I had, not sure I'd do that again. Didn't like the nuts in it. Mine didn't puff up at all. Maybe not enough bread. A little soggy. I think we put too much cinnamon on it, it was a little bland. With syrup it was better. Will try again with better bread and right ingredients! Thanks!

Pennsylvania Coal Region Barbecue

Reviewed: Dec. 6, 2007

I used ground venison instead of beef and dried minced onion instead of a whole one. My family loved it! I will definitely make this again. Very easy and filling.

Chewy Peanut Butter Brownies

Reviewed: Nov. 15, 2007

I'm assuming I did something wrong because these were terrible. I doubled the recipe because I didn't have a small pan and I added extra peanut butter as others recommended. It came out like a cake. A very dry cake. I put store bought chocolate frosting on the top and that helped a little. But wow, they wree dry. And flavorless. Not sweet at all. I'm not sure I'd even try this again if I had the right size pan.

Easy Chicken Enchiladas

Reviewed: Nov. 8, 2007

Mmm! These were delicious! Instead of adding the salt and pepper to the mix I just sprinkled it on the chicken along with some taco seasoning and cooked it over the stove. I took the advice of others and added enchilada sauce to the top. I also used mexican cheese blend for all the cheese instead of the two different kinds. There was a lot of filling leftover, I had to make an extra dish of them but I wouldn't lower the sour cream like others suggested. Very good!

Applesauce Pork Loin

Reviewed: Oct. 25, 2007

I followed this recipe almost exactly except had to use regular mustard. It was moist but completely flavorless. I will never make this again. 2 stars instead of 1 only because it was moist.

Key Lime Pie with Real Butter

Reviewed: Oct. 25, 2007

This was very good. I used a store bought graham crust and regular lime juice because I didn't have key lime. It wasn't quite as tart as I'd hoped but I'm sure that was because of the lime juice. The milk makes it very rich and dense which I liked but if you're looking for something light this isn't it.

Chocolate Crinkles II

Reviewed: Oct. 18, 2007

These are the best cookies I've ever eaten. Seriously. I would buy them from myself. I took someone elses advice and reduced the sugar by 1/4 cup for a more chocolatey flavor and I put the batter in the freezer for 45 minutes and they turned out great. The sticky batter was annoying but well worth it. I sprayed the cookie sheet too since I didn't have parchment paper. My husband loved these. He closed his eyes while eating them! That never happens! Anyway, thanks for the great recipe!

Fiesta Fry Pan Dinner

Reviewed: Oct. 17, 2007

I liked this. I didn't have instant rice so used precooked calrose rice. I also didn't have any zucchini but it was good without it. Sour cream was definitely a good addition. I also put the mixture in a corn torilla and made kind of a rice taco. That was good too. My husband went back for fourths!

Cracked Sugar Cookies I

Reviewed: Oct. 15, 2007

Mmm these cookies are delicious! Mine are flatter than the ones in the picture but still tasty. I'd say they are more like snickerdoodles than sugar cookies in flavor but the slightly crunchy outside and soft middle is yummy. I rolled them in cinnamon and sugar for more flavor. They are quite buttery but easy to make. For my health I probably shouldn't make these again soon. But they're good. You should make them.

Peanut Butter Cupcakes

Reviewed: Oct. 10, 2007

I absolutely love these. So does my husband. Had to use oil in leiu or shortening but everything else is the same. I used Adams natural peanut butter for a strong flavor. I've made these three times in the past week! They're great with chocolate buttercream frosting.
