Killer Shrimp Soup

Reviewed: Oct. 6, 2009
I cut the recipe in half and still used all of the shrimp. My roommates loved it and I did reduce the butter. I served it with chopped cilantro for garnish and it was gobbled up with a loaf of French bread and some latkas -- NOTHING left! My roommate suggested I put in green Chayote squash next time.

Onion Chicken in Balsamic Sauce

Reviewed: Sep. 3, 2009
I did as suggested by others, put a drizzle of balsamic and chicken broth over the chicken, baked it and reduced the sauce on the stove. Then poured it on top when chicken was done and cooked it another 5 minutes - fabulous~

Rempel Family Meatloaf

Reviewed: Sep. 3, 2009
I used Cheeze Its and it worked just fine. I think I'll double the topping next time (2 tbsp ketchup, 1 tbsp honey & 1/2 tsp worshesire)and cook the other half on the stove and serve it on the side because my boyfriend wanted more ketchup and he put cold ketchup on the top - ick~

Cajun Paella

Reviewed: Sep. 1, 2009
I made this recipe without making any changes and there was too much liquid left when I opened the lid. Next time I will boil it all the way down to almost no liquid, cover and simmer for 20 minutes, that's always a foolproof method. Otherwise, my boyfriend loved it!

Classic Pot Roast

Reviewed: Aug. 31, 2009
I followed "Hanchette's" advice and inserted garlic cloves in the meat, seared it with a tbsp. olive oil and deglazed with red wine. Very good tip! I also used the bay leaves and thickened it at the end with 1 tbsp each flour and cornstarch mixed with a little water. But it was a bit bland for me so I added some salt and oregano. I also cooked it for 3 hours @ 350.

Chicken Enchiladas V

Reviewed: Aug. 27, 2009
Too dry! Next time I will double the sauce. Make sure you season the chicken and don't make the mistake I did by spraying the bottom of the pan with cooking spray, the sauce wouldn't spread out and just slid around the pan in clumps. I would season the sauce too, it was too bland. I will put the diced chiles in the sauce next time and cheese inside of the enchiladas as well as the top.

Chicken Fettuccini Alfredo

Reviewed: Aug. 25, 2009
As suggested by others, DO NOT CHANGE A THING! My boyfriend almost licked his plate! He did ask me for the cayenne pepper to sprinkle on the top so next time I will add a dash of red pepper flakes for a kick since he prefers everything spicy. Other than that, this is a true recipe. I cut everything in half since there are only two of us and it was amazing.

Black Bean and Couscous Salad

Reviewed: Aug. 6, 2009
Yummy! Definitely double the dressing and drain and rinse the beans! I had corn on the cob left over so I used one ear and cut off the kernels. Very filling and can't wait to make for my boyfriend's mom because she's vegetarian - she'll love it I'm sure!

Chicken Cordon Bleu

Reviewed: Aug. 5, 2009
I used the changes made by another reviewer and used 3 TBSP olive oil to replace some of the butter. Pounded the chicken to 1/2 inch, and put chopped basil in the sauce. Also topped the dish with basil for color and flavor. VERY nice recipe! I served it with Broccoli and Ramen Noodle Salad, also on this site.

Southwestern Cactus Salad

Reviewed: Jul. 29, 2009
I was in the produce department today and found fresh clean and cut cactus. So I brought some home and found this recipe -- thank goodness! I didn't think my boyfriend would like cactus (nopales) and he could not get enough! We ate every last morsel. I rinsed the raw cactus beforehand and left out the jalapeno (just didn't feel like heat tonight). Eating it raw in this salad is really good and I've had it this way before. Didn't have time to let the flavors meld since it was last minute but it didn't matter because it was so flavorful, fresh tasting and low calorie. We're trying to incorporate lowfat dishes in our diet so this was a heart-healthy surprise and I will make this many more times to come!

Brown Sugar Meatloaf

Reviewed: Jul. 29, 2009
It's Valentine's day and I made this meatloaf in the shape of a heart. It looked beautiful and tasted wonderful! I added a little celery seed and dried parsley. I halfed the cracker crumbs and added oatmeal for the rest. The brown sugar and ketchup on the top of the heart made it look so festive!

Fried Bass

Reviewed: Jul. 21, 2009
YUM! This is a really good recipe and I can't wait to use it for fried chicken! My boyfriend caught some Sea Bass in the San Francisco Bay so I wanted to get a good recipe and am so glad I found this one. I used Pringles S&V Potato Chips and vegetable oil because I didn't have peanut oil. Topped it with Avacado Mango Salsa (also on this site) and it was so delicious with the perfect crunch - great idea with the potato Chips! Served it with a green salad and french bread - very nice meal!

Glazed Pork Tenderloin

Reviewed: Jul. 16, 2009
Made this for dinner with sweet pepper rice (also on this site) and this was a hit with my roommates! We all LOVED it and I followed a little advice of others. Put 1/2 cup water in the pan and used dry rosemary, just rubbed some all over with the S&P. Cooked at 425 for 10 min., brushed 1/4 cup sauce, then 350 for 30 minutes. Also, I will double the sauce next time to really cover the meat after slicing it!

Vietnamese Fresh Spring Rolls

Reviewed: Jul. 16, 2009
Delicious! I followed the recipe and added cucumber & carrot. Didn't use the fish sauce, did the one part SMOOTH peanut butter & one part hoisin sauce. No mint. Fun to make but will take some practice with wrapping!

Garlic Bubble Ring

Reviewed: Jul. 13, 2009
Next time I will only use 1/2 cup butter. Didn't have a bundt pan so I used a regular pan and they came out great. I also used chopped fresh garlic and added more parsley on the top for color before baking. These rolls are addicting -- be careful!
