No leftovers which is always a great sign. The flavor was very good. Instead of 2 cans of minced clams, I used 3 cans of chopped clams and used the juice from 2 of the cans. I also took another reviewers advice (as the broth is a little thin and I prefer thicker)and used a can of cream of potato soup. I just let it cook a little longer and this helped thicken the soup up. I cubed the potatoes a little too big and so next time I will cube even smaller. (Per my kids advice.)

Almond Apricot Coffee Cake

Reviewed: Sep. 1, 2008

Fantastic cake. I did not let my cake cool enough and had a little bit of a collapse but the taste was still wonderful. My family had rave reviews.

Delicious! Had all the ingredients so I decided to try this for dessert for my family and it got rave reviews. Used light sour cream but kept everything else as written.

Tender Italian Baked Chicken

Reviewed: Aug. 26, 2008

Good but no different in taste then an easy chicken parmesan. Could not really dip the chicken in the mayo so I spread a thin layer on each piece of chicken. We thought the chicken was a little dry which was suprising since the mayo should have made it more moist or so I would have thought. Doubt I would try again.

Chocolate Mousse

Reviewed: Aug. 25, 2008

Delicious even though I was very good and only had two spoonfuls. The kids loved it and wanted to know if there was more.

Apple Squares

Reviewed: Aug. 25, 2008

My family really enjoyed these but for me personally, they were way too sweet. I used a whole granny smith apple instead of a half and only sprinkled a little of the cinnamon/sugar mixture on the top. I will cut the sugars down next time I make. I also left out the walnuts (personal preference.)

Easy Arugula Salad

Reviewed: Aug. 25, 2008

I made for lunch yesterday and we really enjoyed. My only change would be next time to wait to do the dressing as the salad got a little wilted sitting in the fridge as we did not eat right away but the taste was still good.

Potato Drop Biscuits

Reviewed: Aug. 23, 2008

These were okay for something fast to go with dinner but I doubt I would make again. Thanks for letting us try.

Sunny Orange Lemonade

Reviewed: Aug. 18, 2008

I really enjoyed this recipe but the men in my family hated the lemon & orange peel that was floating in the drink and insist that I leave it out the next time. Nice flavor though!

Margarita Grilled Shrimp

Reviewed: Aug. 16, 2008

My family really enjoyed. Followed directions as written but next time I would probably add a little more red pepper to give it more of a kick.

Feta Cheese Turkey Burgers

Reviewed: Aug. 16, 2008

Thought we would try something different for supper and I had all the ingredients. The kids would not even finish their burgers as they insisted they had a weird after taste due to the feta cheese. Hubby thought they were just okay.

Butterscotch Chewies

Reviewed: Aug. 16, 2008

These were very good first coming out of the oven per my kids but they were not too thrilled after they cooled. For me personally they are very very sweet but the kids enjoyed them when they were warm. It has been a few days and I still have cookies leftover which is not a good sign. Sorry

Grilled Mahi Mahi with Roasted Pepper Sauce and Cilantro Pesto

Reviewed: Aug. 15, 2008

I made this for my hubby as he is the only one in our house that enjoys mahi mahi. He said if he could he would rate it a 10. I followed the directions to a "T".

Italian Confetti Pasta Salad

Reviewed: Aug. 15, 2008

As written there is way too much mayo. I was hoping by the next day it would get soaked up a little into the pasta but that was not the case. If I would make again, the mayo would get cut down by a lot.

Dilly Romaine Salad

Reviewed: Aug. 15, 2008

Very nice salad. I left out the onions (our preference)but kept everything else as written. We really enjoyed the creamy dill dressing. May use another reviewers advice and add grilled chicken to make as a main meal for those hot evenings when you just don't want to eat a big meal.

Fettuccine with Sweet Pepper-Cayenne Sauce

Reviewed: Aug. 14, 2008

This was not a favorite of mine but everyone else in my family really enjoyed. I used whole wheat fettuccine and doubled the sauce. We did not think that the sauce was runny at all but then again I cooked on a low heat and added the cheese while it was simmering. I also grilled some chicken and added it to the dish.
