Traci's Chicken Noodle Casserole
We will definitely make this again! Plus, there is no need to let it sit overnight! This is a great base hot dish recipe. I made changes but the overall idea of the dish remained the same. I sauteed the onions with the diced chicken. Then I cooked the Macaroni noodles, and mixed them with 1 can of Cream of Celery soup, 1 can of Cream of Chicken soup and the 2 cups Milk. Then stirred in the Chicken, Onions and Cheese. Instead of using processed cheese, I used a package of Cheddar Monterey Jack mixed cheese crumbles. I also took the recommendation of someone else and put some french fried onions on top. The flavor of this made the way I did was not very strong. If you are worried about a strong Onion flavor, don't be (I used two small yellow onions). It was very mild. The strongest onion flavor came from the Crispy Onions on top. It turned out much like a fantastic Mac & Cheese with Chicken in it. I will try again with other modifications as well. I think adding some color by throwing in some Peas or Broccoli would be a good idea. Easy, tasty, and easily modifiable make this a near perfect recipe.

Sweet, Sticky and Spicy Chicken
Fantastic! There seems to be some people here that say this is not sweet or sticky. The way I made it, it was definitely both. I tossed the chicken in a flour/pepper/garlic/paprika mix, and some excess flour ended up in the pan. I think the excess flour helped the sauce to thicken better. I doubled the sauce, as recommended by others (a definite MUST!), with the exception of the hot sauce. I cut that back because of what some other people here recommended. I felt that it was not spicy enough this way (but I like pretty spicy food). When I make it again, I will add a little crushed red pepper or a little extra hot sauce. I served this over white rice with steamed broccoli on the side. Overall, it's an absolutely amazing meal. Especially since it is soooo easy to make. I will definitely be making this over and over again. YUMMY!

Burgundy Pork Tenderloin
This was very average for me and my wife. The gravy ended up a little too tangy for my taste, and the onions seemed to conflict with the gravy. I added mushrooms for the wife, and she seemed to like those. I served it with some cubed red potatoes and those were tasty. Overall the dish was not BAD.. but it certainly was not GREAT either. I will probably make it again... but I may have to make a few minor adjustments to suit my taste.
