Famous Butter Chicken

Reviewed: Mar. 11, 2011

Did this recipe with regular saltines, as I did not have the round butter crackers on hand. Still came out incredible. You don't need salt as the crackers add enough of it. But I was so surprised how juicy the chicken remained!!!

Pumpkin Biscuits

Reviewed: Jan. 2, 2011

This was an awesome recipe, and a great way to use leftovers. You may have to alter the amount of flour depending on how moist your squash mash is, but you don't want it too stiff. Cut and lift carefully, placing a little bit of flour on your surface so it wont stick as you cut. I made it the original way, and improvised 3 other ways. I found that the original recipe is not as good as my alternates. I used leftover butternut squash, with ranch dressing & italian seasoning; mash potatoes with milk & horshradish; and sweet potato with italian and garlic. Much better than the pumpkin & nutmeg/cinnamon!

Potato and Bacon Salad

Reviewed: Sep. 7, 2010

Ad-libbed some of the ingredients (didnt' have celery on hand) but I love the combo of mayo and dijon with the bacon. Very tasty

Chewy Granola Bars

Reviewed: Sep. 7, 2010

Great! The kids were unsure about these at first, but they are so much nicer than store bought. I added mini M&Ms to entice them at first. Tap down at least once or twice during baking to help compress them. I also substituted in 1 cup of rice crispies in for some added crunchiness.

Pigs in a Blanket

Reviewed: Aug. 29, 2010

I'm sure they are great, but this doesn't necessarily qualify as a 'recipe' so much as it is a couple steps.

Fluffy Canadian Pancakes

Reviewed: Jul. 4, 2010

Very very good. Light, and fairly fluffy. I did find it missed a little something in flavor, but I am not sure what. I do not even mind the slight egg taste. Maybe next time I will try to add a tiny bit of cinnamon or sugar. But I will definitely use this again.

Cheesy Chive Crisps

Reviewed: May 30, 2010

Different, but tasty. Had a very hard time cutting them from a log, so I rolled them into small balls instead. They settled as they baked, but were still crumbly. Might roll it out between wax paper next time and use a cookie cutter. Not sure what I think of the rice crispy cereal in there, might crush it more next time.

Cilla's Pineapple Glazed Ham Sauce

Reviewed: Jan. 19, 2010

i altered the recipe a tad. Added more brown sugar, used fresh pineapple and put it all through the blender (omitted the raisins and I didn't have cornstarch). But it all was great basted over ribs on the BBQ. Just have to keep an eye on it so the sugar doesn't burn too fast over the flame. Next time I might add garlic.

Papa Drexler's Bavarian Pretzels

Reviewed: Dec. 3, 2009

Tastes like Pretzels. I am quite impressed with my first ever try on this. The dough is a little hard to roll and knead, but definitely worth it. I found it a tad doughy after 10 minutes so I left it in for another couple mins, making sure they didn't burn.

Amish White Bread

Reviewed: Sep. 2, 2009

Best bread recipe to date. Many breads I've tried ended up with a super hard crust and way too soft inside, resulting in me crushing the bread while trying to delicately slice it. This is soft and spongy and a nice little sweet taste to it. The crust is not hard (finally!!). I'm sticking to this recipe from now on.

Popovers

Reviewed: Aug. 21, 2009

OMG! The best! I have never successfully made yorkshire pudding or popovers, but these turned out incredible!!!! I only had to alter the recipe a little bit to fit what I had on hand. Margarine instead of butter and Homogenized milk instead of regular (because hubby grabbed the wrong one). Dont let the butter bubble, it might not make it, just let it melt. I also added chopped garlic and some Italian seasoning. As well, I used a mini loaf pan instead of a muffin pan. The whole pan was gone in minutes. It was INCREDIBLY tasty.

Killer Koolade

Reviewed: Feb. 24, 2009

We used to make this often when we were younger. Goes really well with half cranberry and half club soda for a bubbly sensation.

Naan Bread

Reviewed: Sep. 30, 2008

Makes great pizza bread. I made a double batch and formed balls then wrapped in saran wrap and froze them. They will expand a little, but thaw very fast. Just roll out and top with favorite pizza toppings. I also added garlic and omitted yogurt, because I didn't have any. Seemed to turn out ok.

German Apple Cake I

Reviewed: Sep. 30, 2008

OMG! So tasty, so moist! Unbelievable. I'm almost afraid to look at the fat content, but I would make this for any special occasion. I didn't have cream cheese icing but I would bet that it would go soooooo well with this. I was leery about the level of sugar in this recipe, and ended up substituting in about 1/2 to 3/4 cup of brown sugar in, which I think helped make a tasty thin crust on the top.

Hamburger Potato Casserole

Reviewed: Sep. 11, 2007

Much better than I expected. My hubby wanted it again the next night! This would make a good potlock dish, or when you have lots of company over.

Mussels Provencal

Reviewed: Jan. 14, 2007

Pretty good. I only had pre-frozen mussels since I do not live in an area that you can buy fresh, so I cooked them right at the end and turned them in. The pasta was pretty good, decent flavor, although I do not usually like such a watery sauce on my pasta. I would try again and modify the ingredients to more my liking.

Mussels Mariniere

Reviewed: Jan. 3, 2007

Pretty good. My first attempt with Mussels. Because of my location I was using frozen ones, that I cooked up and added at the last minute so I had to adjust the cooking somewhat. I also added red pepper and mushrooms to the recipe. I found it to loose, would prefer a thicker sauce, but the taste was still very good!

Samosas

Reviewed: Nov. 5, 2006

It does take a bit of work, and my stuffing wasn't quite as good as I hoped. But the dough recipe was perfect! I think I would use larger circles of dough next time I make this.

Onion, Garlic, Cheese Bread

Reviewed: Nov. 5, 2006

Made the dough manually so I could put it into muffin pans. It was a little dense and I baked for almost 40 mins... probably would have been ok at 30... but it was very tasty. Makes a good little snack or side with dinner. I took some of the users advice and used some diced real onion, which gave it an awesome flavor without giving you 'onion breath'. Could use a tad more garlic flavor, but it was very nice and suttle nontheless.

Pilgrim Pumpkin Pie

Reviewed: Oct. 29, 2006

Tastes just like pumpkin pie, except with the fresh pumpkin flavor. I am not very good with pastries but even the crust turned out very good! I might keep that recipe for other pies. I added a dash of nutmeg, because it just goes well with pumpkin. The whip cream was perfect, nice suttle flavor that just complimented the pie nicely
