MMMMM... Brownies

Reviewed: Apr. 13, 2009
These brownies were delicious and very easy to make! They were both fudgy and cakey- a great texture! I'll definitely be making them again. The only change I made was that I used 9 oz dark chocolate bar (chopped into small pieces before melting) instead of chocolate chips. I baked in a 6 1/2 x 8 1/2 glass pyrex for exactly 25 minutes. This worked really well. One note is that I think the portion estimate is a bit off. The brownies were fairly thick, but the yield was only 8 normal-sized brownies, not 16.

Terrific Turkey Meat Loaf

Reviewed: Apr. 5, 2009
This was just ok. It needed something else to make the flavor more interesting. I'm not sure what- maybe bbq sauce instead of ketchup, bread crumbs to improve the texture?

Wheat Germ Whole-Wheat Buttermilk Pancakes

Reviewed: Apr. 1, 2009
These were pretty tasty. Not too "wheaty" or overly healthy tasting. My only complaint is that they came out fairly flat- I was hoping they'd rise a bit more and be a little lighter. Perhaps there should be a little more baking soda/powder, and/or the batter should sit a little while before putting it on the griddle.

Almond Chocolate Coconut Cookies II

Reviewed: Jan. 31, 2009
These need a little modification but are very tasty. Use only about 1/2 to 2/3 of the white sugar that's called for, and about 2/3 the chocolate chips. (The exact amount will depend on how many serving you are trying to make.) They're not especially coconut-y, so if you really like that flavor you could add more coconut or perhaps a little bit of coconut rum. I used salted, roasted almonds and they added a nice flavor and texture.

Bran Muffins III

Reviewed: Jan. 31, 2009
These were just ok. I pretty much stuck to the recipe but used regular milk instead of buttermilk and I added some blueberries at the end. Even with the blueberries, the muffins were still not sweet. If I made this again, I'd add some sugar. The consistency seemed a bit off as well. I'm not sure how to improve that. But they were edible.

Banana Oat Muffins

Reviewed: Jan. 17, 2009
These are great! I did as some others did and made them a little healthier. I used 1 cup whole wheat flour and 1/2 cup white flour. I split the sugar into half brown / half white. I split the oil with unsweetened applesauce. I had the oven at 350 without realizing it and they came out just fine in about 22 minutes. Even with all the 'healthy stuff' I thought this recipe made were a very tasty and moist muffin. I will definitely be making these again.

World's Best Lasagna

Reviewed: Jan. 16, 2009
This is the best lasagna I've ever had! I made it mostly as directed with the following modifications: I couldn't find the 6 and 6.5 ounce cans of tomato sauce and paste, so instead I used one 15 oz can of each tomato sauce and paste. Instead of ground beef I used a pound of turkey, and I used a pound of Jennie-O sweet Italian turkey sausage in place of regular sausage. I didn't drain the meat after cooking it, just added in the sauce ingreadients. It worked great, and gave a great flavor to the sauce. I used fresh basil and fresh parsley. I added a dash of pumpkin pie spice to the ricotta. I used Barilla no boil lasagna noodles. This made enough for a regular 9 x 13 pan and an extra smaller pyrex. Absolutely delicious!!

Lemon Bread Pudding

Reviewed: Jan. 16, 2009
This was so good I was scraping the last of it out of the pan. I did make a few modifications: I used 4 slices of bread (Safeway french worked great) instead of 3. I put the bread pieces in a pie tin and then sprinkled the raisins (I used currents) on top. I only used about 1/3 cup currents. (3/4 cup was WAY too many. ) Next time I would halve the lemon sauce because there was way more than needed. Deelish!
