Slow-Cooker Chicken Tortilla Soup

Reviewed: Jan. 23, 2011

The only change I made to this recipe is I baked some chicken breast first in the oven with some cumin and chili powder on top. Then threw it in the crockpot. This is a soup we will add to our rotation.

Chili I

Reviewed: Nov. 14, 2010

I followed the recipe as is other than cutting back the sugar some and not so many cans of beans. We made it the night before and let it simmer in the crockpot for a few hours before retiring it to the fridge. The next day we placed it back in the crockpot and believe me, the wait was worth it. Trust the other reviewers when they say the next day is much better!! I was even skeptical the night before and was worried I may have wasted a lot of ingredients. I will make this again and again.

Parmesan Baked Potatoes

Reviewed: Jan. 4, 2010

This was pretty good. It was good way to serve potatoes when you are looking for a different way to serve them. I think it needs pepper or something else to give it more flavor though.

Roasted Pears with Caramel Sauce

Reviewed: Jan. 4, 2010

I ended up coring the pear with an apple corer. Then just layered the pieces all over the pan. We served over homemade vanilla ice cream instead of sour cream. I will definitely make this again. It was outstanding!

Rainbow Salad

Reviewed: Dec. 25, 2009

I am not a jello fan but this recipe is pretty good. Will definitely make again. I was skeptical about evaporated milk mixed with the jello but it was really good!

Absolutely delish. I added a few cinnamon sticks when I made the syrup. Otherwise I followed the recipe to a T.

Peppermint Marshmallows

Reviewed: Dec. 21, 2009

Oh wow was this recipe easy. The only problem I ran into was I didn't have the gelatin completely dissolved so when I added the hot sugar syrup mixture, there were some clumps of gelatin mixed in. Some of the clumps were still there in the finished product. Ooops. That was my fault. Otherwise YUM. I didnt add peppermint either. I just wanted plain ones. Thank you so much! I can't wait to try these with smores!!!!

Caramel Shortbread Squares

Reviewed: Nov. 23, 2009

This was easy. I placed the shortbread in the freezer to cool and then added the caramel. Then cooled the caramel layer in the freezer. Then melted chocolate on top and then chilled that in the freezer. It was excellent and reminded me of a twix bar. Will make again.

Grandmother's Buttermilk Cornbread

Reviewed: Nov. 16, 2009

I preheated the cast iron skillet with veg oil as recommended by another reviewer. Poured the batter into the pan and then drizzled honey on top. This turned out excellent. Will make again.

Caramel Apple Pork Chops

Reviewed: Nov. 9, 2009

I marinated the pork chops in applejuice/soy and wow they were really juicy and tender. I will definitely do that again. This recipe is really good but no one cared for the apples. I guess we see apples as a dessert and not part of a main course. Will definitely make this again but just without the apples or brush the apples off after they bake. Thanks for the new way to make pork chops!
