Spinach Quiche

Reviewed: Nov. 6, 2009
Lovely quiche. I make only one, minor change, I take about 1 teaspoon of dijon mustard, and smear it around the bottom of the pie crust before adding spinach mixture. Just adds a little tang, which we love!

Spooky Halloween Eyeballs

Reviewed: Oct. 30, 2009
These came out soooooo cute. My daughter had a half day of school today, so I made all of the peanut butter balls and just put them in the fridge for a couple of hours, then we did the fun stuff. Be sure to place your mini-chips in as soon as you do the retinas, the white chocolate seemed to set up pretty fast. They do, indeed, taste like peanut butter cups. I already have plans for Christmas, just subbing semi-sweet for white chocolate, and sprinkling with festive decorator sprinkles. Thanks for a great tasting, fun recipe!

Old-Fashioned Chocolate Fudge

Reviewed: Oct. 3, 2009
Spec-friggin-tacular! I followed the directions exactly and other than the fact that it took a little longer than I expected to get to temp, it worked out perfectly. In the last minute of beating it, I added a 1/2 cup of chopped pecans, just cause I love em. This was wonderful. A great recipe to share with friends, this is a keeper! Thanks!

Crustless Spinach Quiche

Reviewed: Oct. 2, 2009
Awesome. I used to make something similar with a little Biscuit mix thrown in, which settles to the bottom, kinda, but always seemed "gooey" and grainy. I love this new version! The only thing I did differently is I added about 1/4 diced red pepper, to add a little sweetness to the spinach. Loved it. Husband and Daughter ended up eating more than half before I even got to serve myself. Thanks for this new "Keeper".

One Bowl Rice

Reviewed: Sep. 12, 2009
I made this Exactly as written. YUK. The rice took almost double the time to cook in a oven-safe ceramic covered dish. The flavor was not pleasant. I love rice, fried, pilaf, plain white, but the flavors of these combined ingredients was not something that even I, a rice lover, could tolerate. Guess I'll keep looking for a rice side-dish that is unique and flavorful. Sorry for the poor review, I am usually very forgiving, but this delayed my entire meal, and was not worth the wait.

Glazed Meatloaf I

Reviewed: Sep. 5, 2009
This meatloaf was indeed very moist, almost to the point of being "meat-mush". I followed exact recipe, hate when people change things then make a bad review. Found glaze much too sweet. Perhaps I should have added more acid, vinegar or more lemon than recipe called for. Not my favorite, both my husband and my daughter agreed. Won't be making this again.

Shrimp Lemon Pepper Linguini

Reviewed: Mar. 2, 2009
Easy, Lemony, Peppery. Just as described. Didn't change a thing, and we all loved it. I served mine w/hot pepper flakes on the side for those who like extra heat and got raves. Thanks

Bread Machine Pizza Dough

Reviewed: Feb. 7, 2009
Perfect. I used a 16X12 stoneware jellyroll pan and had PLENTY of dough. We loved it. The taste was fantastic, and it cooked perfectly. This is my new recipe. Thank you! P.S. I also added a tablespoon of garlic powder... just personal preference, but I think this was tasty enough that it would have been a five star regardless..... Thanks again!

Mustard Fried Chicken

Reviewed: Jan. 19, 2009
Very very good. We never do fried wings in this house without making them "Buffalo". However, these were very tasty and easy to make. Next time I may substitute dijon for the yellow mustard, or partially perhaps. Nobody else in the house had a problem with the way they are, but I'm not a huge yellow mustard fan, and I could easily taste it coming through. That said, it did indeed make for a tangy marinade that held the flour very well when deep fried. Thanks for a great recipe!

French Bread Rolls to Die For

Reviewed: Jan. 19, 2009
The heck with the local bakery on Sunday mornings. These rolls are PERFECT! As another reviewer wrote, I brushed w/melted butter and sprinkled with kosher salt just prior to baking, and these were outstanding. I used my bread machine "dough cycle" and followed recipe from there. I also used my pizza stone with a silicone mat on top to avoid having sticking. These were a huge hit, half were gone before dinner was even served. Thanks for this amazing recipe. This will be a regular in my home for sure!

To my marinade I added about 1t of Cumin powder. Makes a heartier marinade, and we love the flavor it brings. Loved this recipe, thanks!

Fudge

Reviewed: Dec. 13, 2008
I also have made this recipe for years. The base is even more tasty when I add in about 1t vanilla extract at the end of cooking, before pouring into pan. I have used many "fillers" for this including nuts, chopped candied cherries and even mini marshmallows. Thanks for reminding me how easy this is and to make some today!

Chicken Cordon Bleu II

Reviewed: Dec. 12, 2008
Perfect as is. The only thing I do differently, and I mean the ONLY thing, is instead of using toothpicks, or twine, I wrap the chicken/ham/cheese roulettes in plastic wrap and squeeze to shape, then refridgerate for about an hour before I dredge them in the flour mixture and brown them. They seem to hold their shape this way, plus no messy toothpicks to remove. And if a little cheese oozes out, so what, that just adds to the richness and overall flavor of this excellent sauce. This recipe is a keeper! Thanks!

Apple Scones

Reviewed: Oct. 8, 2008
Ok, just a little tip... freeze the butter well, then grate it into the dry ingredients, then mix well... it's easier than cutting it in, and incorporates it easier into the mix. This step takes little effort and maximum results, it's how I always "cut-in" butter to a recipe... Oh yeah, I usually mix it into the dry ingredients by hand, mush it and mix it till combined....

Steak Tip Marinade

Reviewed: Jun. 26, 2008
Thought this was a little too sweet for beef, but I will definitely try again with chicken this time. Good recipe, I guess I'm just not a huge fan of "sweeter" marinades on beef. Bring on the salt for me.

Chicken Dumpling Strips

Reviewed: Jun. 26, 2008
Yummy! I do this in all my chicken soup recipes now.... Even my father who said "those aren't the real kind of dumpling, like my mother used to make" came back for more. When I told him I was making these again tonight, I was asked to bring a bowl to his house! My 8 year picky eater and husband, also picky, both gobble these up. Thanks for a keeper...

Excellent recipe. Followed exactly and was thrilled with the ease and final product. Also made these with craisins, and microplaned the zest of one orange into dry ingredients, absolutely delightful!

Easy and delicious. Kept one loaf in freezer, needed it the next day anyway, as the first loaf "disappeared". Thanks
