Hot Shrimp Dip
Recipe was great! I think the people who had theirs come out watery must have been using frozen shrimp that were not thawed all the way. Use fresh shrimp if yuo can find them. I sauted the onion and pepper first to soften them, then added the shrimp and seasoning just to blend the flavors. I recommend this. Next time I'll try it with Paul Prudhome seasoning instead of OLd Bay, but it was great like it is written.

Hamburger Casserole
Absolutely the worst recipe I have made in years. It was appealing because I thought my rather picky daughter would like it, simple flavors, etc. The outcome was totally tasteless. I even added a little garlic and oregano to the ground beef when I was browning it. (the recipe didn't say so, but I assumed you wouldn't make this with raw hamburger.) Anyway, this was so bad, I registered to the site just so I could write a review. Oh well, maybe I'll get lucky next time.
