Chicken Korma II

Reviewed: Jan. 28, 2012

wow - just finished making this and it is awesome. it's spicy because i used indian chili powder, but it's not overpowering (at least for us). i used FF half and half instead of the cream, and following the rest of the recipe to a T. (which is rare for me) i made this to use with some leftover roasted chicken. this needed no salt as the cashews were salted. perfect consistency. i cannot wait for dinner! thanks for the post Trina!

Beef Stew V

Reviewed: Jan. 23, 2012

cooked in the crockpot. i didn't sear the meat first, but did coat with flour. added a small can of v-8 instead of the peeled tomatoes and beef stock instead of water and bouillon. i also added a handful of frozen peas. delicious everytime.

made this recipe as written, added some crushed pepper on our plates. smelled better than it tasted. a tad bland for us. probably will not make again.

Tree-Shaped Crescent Veggie Appetizers

Reviewed: Dec. 14, 2011

this was good, although i thought is was going to be bigger. also disappointed that i "shared" from the recipe to get a coupon but never did. i also used the dry ranch dressing, not a big fan of dill.

Jim's Cheddar Onion Soda Bread

Reviewed: Sep. 17, 2011

well, i had to do a bit of improvising, but this was one good quick bread. i used dried onion flakes, and milk/lemon juice for the buttermilk. this was delicious, and i will most certainly make it again!

Brick-Oven Pizza (Brooklyn Style)

Reviewed: Sep. 11, 2011

i had some trouble with the transfer to the pizza stone, but this was thin! with my freshly made tomato sauce, mozzarella cheese and chopped prosciutto this was awesome. will try to do better on the transfer on next batch that is currently in the freezer. thanks for the post CDM68!

Always A Winner Grilled Chicken

Reviewed: Jul. 24, 2011

i have to say, i really liked this a lot. i am not put off by the cinnamon in this as others have said. i didn't use as much honey, as i hate the way it burns on the grill. so, i used about 1/8 cup along w/1 pkg of truvia. i also used indian chili powder so i omitted the chipoltle chili powder and cayenne pepper. i so did not use OJ (didn't have any) but my lime was pretty juicy. i did use all of the other spices called for. this was a very good marinade and will use it again. thanks for the post lily's mama!

Marinated Flat Iron Steak

Reviewed: Jul. 20, 2011

this was very good, but for some reason i was a little weirded out with the rosemary and beef. the flat iron steak was very tender. due to unforeseen circumstances, this marinated for 24 hours before grilling. i might use again. thanks for the post mrs lash!

Rosemary Braised Lamb Shanks

Reviewed: Jul. 8, 2011

wow - this was delicious! first time making lamb shanks too. i did not use beef broth, just chicken. i also put in a very small can of V8. i used almost a half bottle of Cotes du Rhone wine. (scaled down to 2) this was a fast, easy and tasty rich dish. served w/mashed potatoes. if i ever happen to make shanks again, this would be the recipe! thanks for the post S. Hodge!
