Bolognese Stuffed Bell Peppers

Reviewed: Aug. 14, 2009

Great Grilling recipe! My husband and I stuffed as instructed, wrapped in foil and grilled for about 15-20 minutes. I added minced garlic to cook with the celery and carrots, along with onion soup mix and Worcester sauce to the beef while it was cooking. I had about 2 servings worth left over after all peppers were stuffed. We both did not feel it necessary for the finishing touch of Parmesan cheese. I will make this again!

Slow Cooker Beef Stroganoff I

Reviewed: Aug. 7, 2009

This has easily become one of our favorite slow cooker meals. The cream cheese is a great touch. Don't be afraid to use hamburger meat in a pinch!

Anna's Amazing Easy Pleasy Meatballs over Buttered Noodles

Reviewed: Aug. 7, 2009

Being the scatterbrained person that I am, I forgot to put this recipe in the Crockpot before leaving for work. This recipe worked just as well on the stove top. I heated the sauce while the meatballs were cooking away in the oven. I did add a bit of dill to the sauce.

Banana Bread II

Reviewed: Nov. 9, 2008

Really good! I added a SMALL amount of nutmeg, 1/2 tsp cinnamon and 1/2 tsp of vanilla to the mixture. I also used bananas that were a little overripe, which makes the banana flavor a bit more intense. YUM!

Bean 'N' Beef Crescent Pie

Reviewed: Sep. 21, 2008

This recipe is simple and a nice change from soft taco night. I used Mama Renfro's Roasted Chipotle hot sauce for a great smokey flavor. The 1 can of cresent rolls didn't exactly cover the entire dish, so I had to use two. (Granted I didn't try too hard to make 1 can work) Next time I might attempt to use a deep dish pie pan.

Three Cheese Manicotti II

Reviewed: Sep. 17, 2008

Awesome! I thawed frozen chopped spinach and added that to the stuffing along with a little bit of garlic. I soaked the shells in hot water for about 15 minutes instead of boiling them. That made it easier to handle. I stuffed the shells with a plastic pastry bag & large tip, because it was handy...(small circles while squeezing filled it faster than just stuffing it in the shell and squeezing btw). I did not use 2 jars of sauce. I used one jar of chunky pasta sauce & 1 8 oz can of tomato sauce w/ a little bit of seasonings mixed in. Next time I'm going to add ground italian sausage to the sauce.

Broccoli Chicken Divan

Reviewed: Sep. 6, 2008

I made this more into a casserole. I shredded the seasoned chicken (with pepper and seasoning salt) after it was cooked with onion, garlic. After reading some of the other reviews, I added Worchester sauce, 1/2 cup milk to the soup. I steamed 2 10 oz pkgs of frozen chopped broccolli instead of using fresh. I started the layering with egg noodles, just to make it an "all-in-one" meal. I'll make this again, but probably do the following: Add extra seasonings between the 'layers' of items. Use condensed cheddar soup instead of broccoli soup. (Just to see what happens)
