Blueberry Crumb Pie

Reviewed: Dec. 25, 2009
I made this last thanksgiving and my family now requests it at every holiday function. It is easy and fabulous. The first time I didn't have any lemon so I skipped it and it was still great. We all do like it even better with the lemon in it however. It adds a little zip to it. Classic and easy, also great for those like me who don't really like pie crust!!

Golden Pork Chops

Reviewed: Sep. 19, 2009
I loved these. I have made them exactly like the recipe and I have changed it up a bit. Try adding a few crumbled strips of bacon before baking. Or about 1/2 cup sour cream to the sauce right before serving, it's great any way you do it. Golden Mushroom soup is now more of a staple in my house than cream of mushroom. I use it in lots of recipes now!!

Italian Spaghetti Sauce with Meatballs

Reviewed: Sep. 19, 2009
This was one of the worst spaghetti sauces I have ever had. I have a meatball recipe handed down 4 generations that I used but I followed the recipe exactly (maybe a bit more garlic), and thought it was horrible. I think I'll stick to my own recipe from now on.

Tuna Noodle Casserole II

Reviewed: Aug. 23, 2009
My whole family loved this. I tried this instead of my traditional Tuna Noodle Recipe because I think my original one was dry. I used less noodles and did the tiny corckscrew noodles. I also topped with French's Fried Onions because I didn't have any potato chips left. I also used only the 98% fat free soups because I can't ever taste the difference in casseroles. It was wonderful!!! Try it you won't be sorry.

10 Minute Zesty Salsa

Reviewed: Jul. 31, 2009
I love this recipe! It's very similar to one I've been making for years. I use the petite diced tomatoes so the chunks aren't to big. And depending on my mood I drain all of the juice for a thicker chunkier salsa or I keep the juice an pulse it in a blender or food processor to get a picante sauce. I also add green pepper and a diced tomatillo to it. It is better the next day so if you are entertaining make it the night before so the flavors meld together. It's just a great easy recipe. You can also substitute 1 large ripe tomato and a can of green chilies if you want.

Blueberry Buckle

Reviewed: Jul. 31, 2009
I've been making this exact recipe for about 10 years, it was my grandmothers before I started making it. We have never messed with it because it is wonderful just as written. (If you use cream as some suggested the fat content doubles!) It's a light, moist, coffee cake that is perfect with coffee and no so sweet or rich that you can't eat more than one piece. A true family classic!

Honey Roasted Red Potatoes

Reviewed: Jul. 26, 2009
I thought these were great, but they have a mild flavor so if you are expecting an intense flavor you will be disappointed. My kids loved them, I served them with Honey BBQ Meatloaf from the Taste of Homes cook book.

Beef Stroganoff II

Reviewed: Jul. 26, 2009
Easily a 5 star with these healthy modifications. 1. Use the 98% fat free cream of mushroom soup (I promise you won't be able to tell the difference). 2. Add 1 can of Golden Mushroom soup. 3. Add 2 cups or 1 can of beef broth. 4. Add a package of onion soup mix and omit chopped onion. Can also add 1/2 cup light cream cheese and 1/2 cup light sour cream at the end. This dish is far from bland, has a deep rich color to it, and lots of aroma and flavor with hardly any work.

Best Steak Marinade in Existence

Reviewed: Jul. 26, 2009
Everyone loved this at my house. Be careful of marinating it too long, it will be really salty. (Had a family emergency the night we were going to cook it, so it sat for two days before we got to cook it.) Otherwise it was wonderful and next few times I've made it and marinated it overnight it was fabulous. I've also added about 1/2 cup of red wine if I have some around, and it's great with that too.

Slow Cooker Chicken Taco Soup

Reviewed: Jul. 1, 2009
This was an instant family favorite, even my really picky 19 month old liked the beans in it. I made it exactly like the recipe except added 2 chicken bouillon cubes to it. This was the easiest time I've ever had shredding chicken. Fantastic!!! Thanks.

Salsafied Chicken and Rice

Reviewed: Jun. 26, 2009
This is simple and very good. I will be making it often, my whole family loved it! I loved that it only took about 30 minutes if that. I seasoned the chicken a little more and used brown instant rice instead of the while. Couldn't even tell the difference. Try this you won't be sorry!!!

Angel Hair Pasta with Lemon and Chicken

Reviewed: Jun. 11, 2009
I sauted the chicken with some garlic, green onion, and fresh mushrooms mostly because I had them on hand and was looking for a way to use them. I also threw in 1/4 of white wine that I needed to use up, and it was fabulous and not nearly as bland as others had said.

Chicken Enchiladas with Creamy Green Chile Sauce

Reviewed: May 31, 2009
Try these and you won't be disappointed!! They are truly wonderful and worth the extra effort instead of opening a can of enchilada sauce. The second time I made them I used hot green chiles and 1TB of jalapeno juice or jalapeno tabasco in it for a little kick. It still wasn't all that spicy but great flavor!!! I make these all the time and my parents who are very picky asked me for the recipe. My grandma steals any leftovers if I tell her I made it!!

Old Fashioned Potato Salad

Reviewed: May 31, 2009
A good start. Like others I at least doubled the amount of mayo, and used dry mustard. I also didn't use relish because I hate it. My grandmother used to add radishes sliced up into the salad. Try it, it's a great addition. I also mixed the egg yolks into the mayo mix before mixing it all together.

Chicken and Broccoli Alfredo

Reviewed: May 31, 2009
This was really bland and I added garlic powder and onion powder to it. I thought it tasted a lot like cream of mushroom soup and nothing like alfredo. My 18 month old son did like it though, but I think I'll stick with the other Chicken Alfredo recipe that I have.

Taco Casserole

Reviewed: May 28, 2009
This is super easy and a great meal. I used a jar of homemade salsa instead of the tomatoes and used a lot more cheese. I let everyone add their own chips so they would be crunchy, and so are the leftovers that way. I loved the tomato soup in it, and I was pretty skeptical at first. Thanks so much for sharing!

Easy Grilled Chicken Teriyaki

Reviewed: Apr. 22, 2009
It was great and so easy. I used the juice from a can of mandarin oranges instead of the lime juice, because I forgot that I was out of lime juice. And it was a nice combination of flavors. I also poked the chicken full of holes with a fork to help the marinade get all through the chicken and to tenderize it!

Split Pea and Ham Soup I

Reviewed: Apr. 20, 2009
I got rave reviews from this recipe and have made 2 double batches for all of my family to take home and freeze. I used the chicken broth as reccommended by others, and cut up a ham steak instead of messing with the ham bone. I also added some shredded carrots and diced celery. It is so simple and you won't be disappointed. My double batch cost about $6 to make and I have enough for 4 meals, and the kids loved it too!
