Pizza Dough I

Reviewed: Dec. 11, 2009
I have made this as is, and I have also tried letting it rise and whatnot. I really liked that I could whip this up in no time without waiting for rising, and also if I plan on pizza I can make it earlier and let it rise. Definately a keeper.

Easy Company Chicken

Reviewed: Nov. 24, 2009
I have been searching for this recipe for years! My aunt used to make what she called curry chicken when we came for dinner when I was young. This is fabulous! I also used a can of cream of chicken and a can of cream of celery. SO GREAT!!!

Slow Cooker Chicken with Mushroom Wine Sauce

Reviewed: Nov. 16, 2009
I made this with apple/grape juice (because I didnt have wine or plain apple juice) and it turned out fab! My chicken fell apart, and it was juicy. I used garlic powder, salt, pepper for season. Served with dill mashed potatos and corn. The mushroom sauce worked AWESOME as a gravy. Even my kids loved it!

Apple Crumble Pie

Reviewed: Nov. 2, 2009
I did a no-no and made my pie kinda differently. I didnt put the crumble on it, I put another crust on top. Other than that I followed the recipe closely. I mixed the apple with cinnamon, sugar and flour. I dotted with butter put the crust on top and baked it at 400 for about 25 minutes, turned down to 350 and baked for about 25 more. Excellent!

Red and Green Christmas Jalapeno Jelly

Reviewed: Oct. 7, 2009
I just made this today. FIRST WEAR GLOVES!!!!! I cannot stress enough, you HAVE to wear gloves. Maybe I got a really crazy batch of jalapenos, but my hands have burned for HOURS. Second, watch carefully and use a BIG pot. I only used a 4qt, and it boiled over. It is not easy to clean up syrup on a ceramic stovetop. Other than that, I followed to a T. Turned out great, looks fantastic with the specks of red and green. If you do happen to not use gloves, I found scrubbing your hands with a nail brush SUPER well, and with rather hot water for rinsing. After that, rub those owie fingers on stainless steel. YES, your sink, you spoons, your pots. It DOES work, at least for me...

Christmas Breakfast Casserole

Reviewed: Jul. 18, 2009
I made this for breakfast this past Christmas, and it was great! SO easy to assemble the night before, and just throw it in the oven in the morning! My family of 5 devoured the whole pan. My only concern was a little to salty, but I DID use a whole pack of bacon. My husband thought it was The Best!

T Bird's Beef Jerky

Reviewed: Jul. 18, 2009
This turned out great! I made mine in my food dehydrator and I have yet to master that...as I dried it out a little too much... it was almost brittle. I will try a few more times and I will get it figured. It had very good flavor tho! Thanks!

Black Bottom Cupcakes I

Reviewed: Jul. 18, 2009
I got this recipe from my aunt years ago and have been making them ever since. We started doubling the cupcake part and just putting a teaspoon or so of the cream cheese mix on top. It makes it go further, and it isn't as rich! These also freeze great!

Chewy Chocolate Chip Oatmeal Cookies

Reviewed: Jul. 17, 2009
GREAT! I made these today and it turned out fabulous. I did a no-no and kinda changed the recipe but only SLIGHTLY. I subbed 1/2 cup of oatmeal for 1/2 cup ground flax seed, and chopped up an easter bunny into chunks instead of chips, and used a cup of real salted butter but didnt add the salt it called for. Turned out FANTASTIC! Not too salty or anything!

Faux-reos

Reviewed: Jul. 17, 2009
FABULOUS! Just made these today and I think I got about 4 dozen. I made mine the size of quarters maybe? They are still soft on the outside as I baked only 8 minutes, so if you want crunchy ones maybe bake 10. The filling is very good, but I think I would add more cream cheese next time, less sugar and a little milk. The consistancy of it was perfect! These are great, I am gonna make them ALL the time! Thanks!

Pan Fried Spinach

Reviewed: Jul. 13, 2009
I had alot of spinach left over and little time to use it, so I made this. My family LOVES bacon so I figured anything with bacon they will eat. It turned out pretty alright, I did not use any oil, I just used the bacon grease which I highly reccomend, but dont keep ALL the grease in the pan. DEFINATELY drain some, as ours was SOOOOOO greasy, but we ate it and it was loved all around. Next time I will drain at least 3/4 of the grease, and maybe drain the spinach when I am done. This is a keeper!

Dash's Donair

Reviewed: Jul. 12, 2009
I made this for dinner a few weeks ago. Most of my family had never had donair's before, and I only had it once before (when I was pregnent and craved it, although I had never had one before...). They turned out FANTASTIC! The meat was fabulous, but the sauce was really REALLY sweet. We didnt use too much. I also let it boil for a little while to allow it to thicken up. Overall it was a very excellent recipe, which I will be making more often. I was amazed at how well the meat stuck together, and I was able to slice thinly!

Best Scrambled Eggs Ever!

Reviewed: Jun. 3, 2009
OK, I read the reviews and it seems alot of people say you cant use milk in scrambled eggs...why? When I was a chef we used milk in scrambled eggs regularly, and when we had the breakfast buffet we used bagged scrambled eggs. Now, I have always made scrambled eggs with milk, with favorable results. My eggs are ALWAYS fluffy, ALWAYS tasty. Nothing worse than having flat, crunchy scrambled eggs. I think maybe the ratio is off, as I always make my eggs with the same ingrediants...adding garlic powder, onion powder, maybe seasoning salt if I am adventurous, and more than not Franks Red Hot, and of course margarine or butter both to the eggs mix and melted in the pan. BUT I dont think I use 1/4 cup, just a splash, and a dash of salt and pepper. SO in conclusion, I suggest you try it, and eyeball it. I think I will be A-O-K!

Chocolate Ganache

Reviewed: May 18, 2009
I have made this twice, and both times it didnt quite turn out. I wanted a whipped chocolate ganache for a filling, and once it cooled and I whipped it, trying to get a good consistancy, it started to curd. It looked like it was seperating! It tasted ok, I made one with bittersweet chocolate, and one with a chopped up easter bunny (milk chocolate). I would reccomend the bittersweet chocolate, as milk was a little sweet for everyone. Does anyone know why mine 'curdled'? I think I will pour it over my cake next time.

Gramma's Date Squares

Reviewed: May 17, 2009
This is almost just like the one my grandma makes! LOVE IT! Only difference is she uses raisins instead of dates and vanilla instead of lemon juice. Awesome! Oh, and her recipe was called Matrimonial Cake.

Buttery Soft Pretzels

Reviewed: Apr. 19, 2009
I just made these and they did turn out quite well. The oven temp at 450 was too high, I turned down to 400 and baked for about 5-6 mintues to get a nice golden brown color. I thought maybe I wrote the recipe down wrong, as it called for 1/2 cup baking soda, but I checked and that was the recipe. Mine tasted like it was coated in baking soda, but other than that they were good. Next time I will use less baking soda in the water for dipping before baking. Maybe less sugar, as I want mine more savory instead of sweet. I used a dipping sauce of hot mustard (found on this website), but it did NOT work very well. When the vinegar in the mustard mixed with the soda solution on the pretzel it fizzed,and it fizzed in my mouth while chewing and down to my stomach....so I suggest buying the hot mustard from the store...which I will do asap!

Carrot Cake III

Reviewed: Apr. 12, 2009
Made this for easter...just today! Turned out AWESOME! I did sub about 1/2 cup flax seed oil, 1/2 cup applesauce and 1/4 cup canola oil for the 1 1/4 cup veg oil. It is moist and very good! I did have to up the cook time about 10 - 15 minutes. OH I also cooked in 2 9" round pans so I had a layer cake. The icing for this is kinda sweet, but very good. It made PLENTY to use for filling and to ice the entire cake. Overall and AWESOME recipe. Well worth a try!
