Alabama Fire Crackers

Reviewed: Jan. 30, 2012

These are so simple and yet- the freaking rock! Still want to try it with Italian dressing mix...

Italian Bread Wedges

Reviewed: Jan. 30, 2012

I didn't have dressing so I used garlic butter as per other reviewers recommendations. I forgot to add the oil to the dough, but it still turned out great!

Cranberry Streusel Pie

Reviewed: Jan. 30, 2012

Love the stresel topping! I combined the streusel topping from this recipe with the 'crustless cranberry pie' on this site and it was phenomenal!

Holiday Brie en Croute

Reviewed: Jan. 30, 2012

Very easy and great presentation, but I guess I'm not as big a fan of brie as I originally thought.

Peanut Butter Cup Cookies

Reviewed: Jan. 30, 2012

These were great! I baked them until they fluffed up, then shoved Reese's cups into them. Perfect and easy!

LOVE the texture! I used mint chocolate chips instead of plain and a cookie scoop so they would be the same size. I just left them in the ball shape and they spread just right. I pulled them out, sprinkled with some chopped Andes pieces and swirled the tops after a minute. I even left a few without the topping and they were good too, but I prefer the dual mint flavors.

Daddy's Fried Corn and Onions

Reviewed: Jan. 30, 2012

Great as is, but I definitely think replacing the butter with bacon grease would be sinfully good. Hell, I bet a good powdering with parmesan cheese would kick some corn-butt too! I'll try that next time.

Taqueria Style Tacos - Carne Asada

Reviewed: Jan. 30, 2012

Very good as is, but I added some additional cumin, garlic salt, pepper, and a tablespoon of pureed chipotle peppers and really took it to where I wanted it to be. I marinated the flank steak for 3 days and threw it in the crockpot on low for 7 hours. I wish I could've made the onion relish, but we sufficed with some storebought pico de gallo.

Black-Eyed Pea Gumbo

Reviewed: Jan. 30, 2012

I added two pkgs of smoked sausage and a teaspoon of Worcestershire sauce. Yum! Even my picky daughter liked it, though she thought it was spicy. (I'm assuming from the green chilies in the tomatoes.) My hubby and boys added hot sauce and pepper to theirs. I think a few teaspoons of bacon bits next time will really kick it into overdrive. Oh, I also used a 16oz. bag of frozen black eyed peas, long grain white rice instead of the brown, and threw it all in the crockpot on low before I went to work. Outstanding and it only took me 10 minutes to assemble!

Bananas Foster Monkey Bread

Reviewed: Jan. 30, 2012

The taste was amazing but I will tweak it a bit next time. I'll definitely add four bananas instead of two, more cinnamon/sugar in the beginning, and I'll probably put it on 375 degrees instead of 400. I cooked it for the full 40 min and it was a bit overdone, but I also had mine in a 9 x 13 instead of a bundt pan. The six of us finished it off in one sitting!

Beef Barley Vegetable Soup

Reviewed: Jan. 3, 2012

As recommended by other reviewers, I used stew meat that I cut into smaller pieces. I cooked the soup for 10hours on low, added the barley, then accidentally left the crock on warm overnight. It still tasted superb! I also added a dash of Worcestershire.

Caramel Filled Chocolate Cookies

Reviewed: Jan. 3, 2012

I figured out that it was much easier to put dough balls into a mini muffin tin. I baked for 7-8 min then pressed caramel filled Hershey's kisses into the top. I didn't even need to put them back into the oven- the heat from the cookie made kiss nice and gooey.

Slow Cooker Cranberry Pork

Reviewed: Dec. 15, 2011

The kids were not fans but the hubby loved it! I think it should definitely have more of the cranberry sauce- its the best part!

Banana Sour Cream Bread

Reviewed: Dec. 11, 2011

Phenomenal!!! This will be my go-to banana bread recipe. I made 2 regular sized loaves and four mini loaves with this recipe. It does freeze great and maybe even tastes better after its been thawed than fresh out of the oven. Sooo moist!

Caramel Pecan Pie

Reviewed: Dec. 11, 2011

The caramel flavor takes attention away from the pecan flavor. As a preference, we'll stick with a more classic version.

Great flavor! I bet a dash of vanilla next time would be divine!

Banana Oatmeal Cookie

Reviewed: Nov. 26, 2011

The flavor was great, but I think I would rather have either an oatmeal cookie or banana bread. It turned out like a cake cookie- not the texture I was hoping for.
