It was good but not great! The icing did not turn out as expected. Some reviewers said it was just like German Choc. cake icing. I probably won't make it again. Kids didn't get too excited about it even though we did end up eating it all.

Easy Spicy Roasted Potatoes

Reviewed: Aug. 11, 2009

These were good but i prefer just using a package of lipton onion soup mix and olive oil. It's really easy and my kids love them.

Amazing Pork Tenderloin in the Slow Cooker

Reviewed: Aug. 11, 2009

It was really good, but I'd use a less expensive cut of pork next time, It seemed a waste to cook such a tender cut of pork for so long.

Sesame Shrimp

Reviewed: Aug. 11, 2009

It was good. Not fabulous but very easy. My husband and kids liked it and it was quick to make so I'll probably make it again.

Rebecca's Rockin' Vodka Lemonade

Reviewed: Jul. 8, 2009

Too sweet. Rasberry flavor tasted artificial. I've had a pink lemonade with gin and lime juice. That's much better.

Portobello Penne Pasta Casserole

Reviewed: Jun. 5, 2009

Very flavorful. I made some substitutions as I ran out or did not have some ingredients. 1/2 skim milk and 1/2 chicken broth, low fat mozarella and unfortunatley for my low cholesteral diet, regular butter in place of margerine. Oh and 1 heaping tablespoon of minced garlic instead of 1 clove. I also forgot to add the soy sauce until we had already eaten some of it. I went back and added it after and it made a big difference. Excellent for a meatless dish. Will also try with chicken.

Blackened Tuna Steaks with Mango Salsa

Reviewed: Jun. 4, 2009

Really good except I'd cut back on the Spanish onion in the mango salsa and maybe add an extra green onion instead. Loved the spice and was pretty easy to make. Not sure why they say to rinse after marinating other than maybe to get the garlic off so it won't burn when you sear it.

Roasted New Potato Salad With Olives

Reviewed: May 16, 2009

I didn't like this. It was similiar to my roasted potatoes but i like my recipe for those better and it was nothing like potato salad. I did get the potatoes a bit overdone since i already had something in my oven i used my speed oven so that could have been part of it but i'll stick to regular potato salad.
