Butterscotch Bread Pudding

Reviewed: Dec. 21, 2009
Amazing. Not enough stars for this one! I made a few very small tweaks to the recipe. I did half whipping cream and half whole milk, used challah bread, added some ground cinnamon, and used a combination of mini chocolate chips, white chocolate chips, and butterscotch chips. Served with a scoop of vanilla bean ice cream. Just delicious. Will likely be a regular dessert at our Christmas dinners going forward!! Oh, and I can also attest to the fact that this tastes just as good cold as it does warm!

Roast Leg of Lamb with Rosemary

Reviewed: Dec. 13, 2009
Really great marinade. This lamb went over really well and is definitely a dish I will make when I have guests to impress! My minor changes, based on other reviews: I used lemon juice instead of zest, and I added splashes of balsamic and olive oil, as well. I also inserted slivers of garlic into the meat. I halved the recipe, since I had just over 2 pounds of lamb. I cooked at 450 for 15 minutes with a foil tent, and then cooked for about 50 minutes at 350 withou the tent. I might cook it for a little less next time, since we like our lamb fairly rare.

Cheesy Creamed Spinach

Reviewed: Dec. 13, 2009
Fabulous! Made as directed and it was a big hit. Great flavor! I will probably add less cream next time, as there was a bit too much liquid. Regardless - still a very yummy dish!

Cinnamon Coffee Cake II

Reviewed: Dec. 6, 2009
Fabulous!! Other than baking it for an additional 10 minutes and doing four layers instead of two, I made this as directed. It was DELICIOUS! So moist and full of flavor. I do think next time I will reduce the amount of brown sugar from 1 cup to 3/4 cup, because I ended up not using all of it. This will definitely be something I'll make the next time we have out of town guests - perfect for a weekend breakfast or brunch!

Barbeque Pork Two Ways

Reviewed: Nov. 15, 2009
Turned out great. I used half ketchup and half BBQ sauce as others noted, and I didn't slice before cooking in the slow cooker. After about six hours, I shredded the pork, then let it continue to simmer on low for another few hours. Very easy and very satisfying. Served it with apple coleslaw on the side, which I also found on Allrecipes. I found it tastes even better as leftovers the next day!

Country Green Beans

Reviewed: Nov. 8, 2009
Grate recipe. My only change was to substitute chicken broth for water. Easy and delicious!

Cocktail Meatballs

Reviewed: Oct. 24, 2009
I really only made the sauce and used frozen meatballs. I love this sauce - sweet, tangy, a little bit of spice. I made my sauce the night before - just barely combined the ingredients over heat. Then I poured it over the thawed out meatballs and let them sit in it overnight. About an hour and a half before my party, I put everything on the stove and let it simmer for awhile. I thought they turned out well. This is an easy appetizer to do for larger groups and it always turns out to be a winner. Thanks.

Downeast Maine Pumpkin Bread

Reviewed: Oct. 24, 2009
I love this bread!! So moist and flavorful! I make just a few small changes to this recipe - I do 1 cup brown sugar and 2 cups white sugar, and I add more of all the spices.

Unbelievable Spinach Calzones

Reviewed: Oct. 22, 2009
Giving this four instead of five b/c I doctored up the filling a bit. I added sauteed garlic, onions, mushrooms, and pepperoni to the spinach and cheese mixture. Used Pillsbury's frozen pizza dough, per another reviewer's recommendation. Brushed an egg wash over the calzones before popping them in the oven for about 20 minutes. They looked and tasted great. Really easy, fun, tasty dish.

Dill Dip III

Reviewed: Oct. 22, 2009
This is delicious. Simple, but really delicious. Based on other reviews, I halved the salt. Served in a bread bowl with all sorts of veggies and pieces of bread. Will make again, for sure!

Seven Layer Taco Dip

Reviewed: Oct. 18, 2009
Brought this to a potluck and got rave reviews! A few people said it was the best 7 Layer Dip they had had and asked for the recipe. I did the following layers: 1. beans/taco seasoning, 2. cream cheese/sour cream, 3. guacamole, 4. medium chunky salsa, 5. lettuce/green peppers/tomatoe/green onions, 6. cheese, 7. olives.

Pork Tenderloin in Bourbon

Reviewed: Oct. 3, 2009
I enjoyed this, though it didn't totally knock my socks off. I could taste the bourbon flavor and would probably add slightly more brown sugar next time. I also thought the cooking temp and/or time was off. I cooked about 1.5 pounds of tenderloin, and it was not even close to being done after 45 minutes. I'm thinking the cook temp should be 425, not 325. With all that said, the meat was very tender and juicy, and the marinade does complement the flavor of the meat nicely.

T's Sweet Potato Fries

Reviewed: Oct. 3, 2009
This is a nice, different way to serve up sweet potatoes. I sliced mine into thin discs, didn't do the pre-cooking, and they cooked up nicely in about 25 minutes. I flipped them after about 15 minutes. There was some slight burning on some of them, but it didn't detract from the taste and actually helped the crispiness factor.

Apple Cole Slaw

Reviewed: Oct. 3, 2009
I made this exactly as written (though I used pre-chopped cabbage/carrot mix), and it was delicious!! This will definitely be thrown into regular rotation.

Chocolate Cavity Maker Cake

Reviewed: Aug. 10, 2009
This cake is fantastic and seems fool-proof. I substituted hazelnut-flavored coffee creamer for the liqueur, but it still turned out rich, moist, and delicious. It dusted it with powdered sugar and put sliced strawberries on top. It got RAVE reviews from adults and kids alike. I definitely will make this again and will try it with kahlua next time. Loved it!

Salmon with Brown Sugar and Bourbon Glaze

Reviewed: Apr. 19, 2009
I followed the directions as written and personally really liked this, even though it is quite sweet. My boyfriend, on the other hand, did not like the sweetness of it. I prepared as written and served it over a brown rice with sesame green beans on the side. Made for a very nice meal. I will make this again... just not for my boyfriend. :-)

Awesome Baked Sea Scallops

Reviewed: Apr. 13, 2009
Very, very good. I used one pound of bay scallops, but otherwise, I prepared this as written. Thought the amount of breadcrumbs was perfect. Served over thin spaghetti, and the butter/garlic/shallots mixture made a great sauce with the breadcrumbs. Cooked the scallops for about 11 minutes, and they came out well. Will make this again.

The Best Banana Bread

Reviewed: Mar. 31, 2009
Excellent. The modifications I made were to do 1/2 cup white sugar and 1/2 brown sugar, rather than 1 full cup of white. Added nutmeg and vanilla, and sprinkled cinnamon sugar on top prior to baking. This was simple, used ingredients I had on hand, and - for me - the 1 hour cook time was perfect. Will definitely use this recipe next time I have bananas left over. Thanks!!
