Butterscotch Cake I

Reviewed: Jan. 15, 2012

I used a 4-pack of SnackPack Butterscotch pudding and used jumbo muffins pans to make 12 individual cakes for my sons lunches. The butterscotch chips didn't sink at all and the cakes were very light. I did put a bit of melted butter and brown sugar on the bottom of the muffins tins since I wasn't going to add frosting. Baked at 350 for 15 minutes (12 jumbo muffins tins...only about half full) and they were perfect!!! Will be making again!!

Chicken with Chipotle

Reviewed: Jan. 16, 2011

This was edible, but not worth the added calories. Tasted like sour cream with a little kick. I like both good flavor and good spice...this provided neither. Won't make again

Delicious Ham and Potato Soup

Reviewed: Jan. 1, 2011

Great!! I used a ham bone with the stock/water, potatoes and onions in a crockpot for 4 hours. Discarded bone, added a bag of frozen stew veggies....put the crock pot on high for an hour...made the roux/milk...added it with a can of corn to the soup...added some shredded cheese, continued for 15 minutes...very tasty...

Triple Berry Crisp

Reviewed: Aug. 21, 2010

This is fantanstic. The first time I made it I felt it needed a slight salty sensation to go with the oats properly.... so today I added 1 tsp. of baking soda to the crisp to give it that slight kick and it was perfect. I also used 5 cups of fruite (berries and peaches) and a shake of cinnamon in the crisp. Like others I melted the butter into the crisp mix and only added enough to wet it...probably about 1 1/4 c. total.

Spinach Tomato Tortellini

Reviewed: Feb. 7, 2010

I didn't like this as much as I had hoped. There was way too much sauce and the sauce was rather bland.

Zippy Chicken Corn Chowder

Reviewed: Jan. 27, 2010

Very good!! My favorite kind of chowder. The only differences from the recipe I did was to add a few stalks of celery and pureed a little over half of the soups (before adding the corn and chicken). I love this recipe, too good!! Especially fantastic with some shredded cheese on top.

Fantastic Lemon Butter Fillet

Reviewed: Jan. 3, 2010

I love lemon flavor on fish, but hate mayo with fish (makes me gag). This was awesome!! I did place lemon slices on the fish and used the whole sauce when putting it in the oven. This had a strong lemon flavor but was very nice. Better than the mayo/butter/parmesan recipe on here.

Clone of a Cinnabon

Reviewed: Dec. 19, 2009

Followed suggestions and flipped them out as soon as they were done (which took about 10 minutes longer as I only had 9 big ones, not 12)...forgot the vanilla and these are GREAT!!! My kids LOVE them!!

Light Oat Bread

Reviewed: Dec. 12, 2009

I've made this twice now, both times in the oven. The first time I let it rise overnight in the fridge and today the more traditional way, on the counter. I can honestly say this is the BEST bread I have ever had. It is delightful toasted with butter, wonderful used in a sandwich. I plan on toasting it for stuffing at Christmas. Like others suggested I sub honey for the sugar (and use 3 tbsp.). I also use real butter (I don't use margarine). I won't by bread in the store anymore, I make this instead and my kids love it too. Absolutely great stuff!!!

Awesome Sausage, Apple and Cranberry Stuffing

Reviewed: Nov. 27, 2009

This was awesome, with the tweaks I made. No turkey liver or parsley (don't care for either), doubled and used fresh herbs (to die for), used Sage Pork Sausage, used good sourdough bread in place of white bread and potato bread in place of whole wheat. Also doubled the apple and added a pear. This was the BEST dressing recipe ever, will never make a different one again. This is the best recipe on this site!!!

Spooky Halloween Eyeballs

Reviewed: Oct. 27, 2009

Okay, I just made these to top the Halloween cupcakes and here are my recommendations: 1) After you shape the balls, put a toothpick in them and then place them in the freezer for about 30 minutes or so. 2) Don't bother adding the shortening to the white chocolate. I zapped a bag of white choc. chips in the microwave for 30 seconds...stirred...30 more seconds...really stirred and it melted beautifully (do have to stir for a while to completely melt the choc). 3) Dip the frozen PB balls in the white chocolate and gently push it off of the toothpick (push it up off the toothpick), after you set it down the choc will still "ooze" over where your fingers were. 4) I didn't bother with the red squiggles as it looked too time consuming. All in all it looks great!! The boys really like them!

Fish Tacos

Reviewed: Oct. 18, 2009

This is quite bland. The fish tastes like nothing really...just extremely battered (no I didn't whisk it too hard or long). The sauce and cabbage was a bit boring so I added homemade pico de gallo. I ended up loving a fishless version with just the pico and cabbage mix in a slightly fried tortilla with a bit of shredded cheese on top. If I make this again I will add some seasoning to the beer-batter.

Roquefort Pear Salad

Reviewed: Sep. 7, 2009

I started to make my typical salad and then decided to make this, so I had some mushrooms, tomatoes, and onion slices already in my salad. I then added the avocado, pears, chopped candied pecans, and blue cheese. I topped with the dressing. All I can say is "WOW!" The flavor combos here are amazing. The pecans with the pears creates a totally different flavor than the avocado and blue cheese (what a great combo) so every bite is different. If you like strong flavors this is the salad for you. If you like subtle flavors I doubt you would like this much. Thank you so much, I look forward to making this at Thanksgiving (the dressing would be great with an apple style salad as well I think.) This is just fantastic!
