Pumpkin Cheese Bread I

Reviewed: Nov. 29, 2009
Really good. 1st pumpkin bread and will def make again. Made almost exactly except omitted nuts for preference, used butter, doubled cinnamon & cloves and added nutmeg. Next time will try a bit more "healthy" by lowering sugar, subbing some applesauce and adding some milk - was just slightly dry. Thanks for a great recipe!

Grandma's Green Bean Casserole

Reviewed: Nov. 29, 2009
Nope didn't like this, sorry. Onion way too strong for me, as was the sour cream. Sounded really good, though.

Chocolate Chocolate Chip Cookies I

Reviewed: Oct. 25, 2009
OMG. Omitted nuts, and switched chocolate chips for peppermint chips. Replaced 1 tsp. of vanilla extract with pure peppermint extract. Subbed half white sugar with brown sugar. These were to DIE for. If you are having a chocolate fit, these will sooooo fix it. Yes, they should be a bit soft at the end, they cool and are perfect. I did 10 minutes and they were good. I did 11 minutes and they were even better - it gave the edges a chewiness that was awesome. Thanks for this recipe - will be a keeper forever. :)

Grandma's Brown Sugar Drop Cookies

Reviewed: Oct. 12, 2009
I made them exactly per instructions, oh wait - no I added an extra half cup of flour and two cups of chocolate chips...12 minutes baking time. Dough was soft, not a firm cookie dough. I didn't have time to refrigerate, it could have helped. I think maybe there was a little too much baking soda - I couldn't really taste it but it seemed just a bit "off." Overall, a good tasting cookie...might try again with reducing soda and adding a bit more sugar. I wanted a brown sugar drop cookie I never heard of them before, and a friend gave me some of hers (she added chocolate chips) and I wanted the same thing...not quite though. Thanks for the recipe. :)

Best Chocolate Chip Cookies

Reviewed: Oct. 12, 2009
These were good, as far as chocolate chip cookies go. They were crispy on the edge and chewier in the middle, although not really "chewy." I followed instructions exactly - they took me 12 minutes per batch. Kids liked 'em - I'm just a picky gal. :) Thanks for the recipe!

Quick and Easy Alfredo Sauce

Reviewed: Aug. 19, 2009
This is so far the best alfredo sauce I've found. I never would have thought to use cream cheese. I used fat-free, and next time will reduce the butter like other reviewers have tried - just in the interest of reducing cals. But loved this and thanks so much for the recipe.

Swiss Chicken Casserole II

Reviewed: Aug. 19, 2009
This is really good. It is simple and quick to make (very important!) and tastes great. It also tastes good cold the next day, believe it or not! We make this regularly - thanks for the recipe!

Chili Dog Casserole I

Reviewed: Aug. 6, 2009
This is a really good kid-friendly recipe. If you use whole grain buns, low-fat cheese, low-fat chili it also can be pretty healthy. Thanks! And it's easy to make - always a plus!

Oven Fresh Seasoned Potato Wedges

Reviewed: Aug. 4, 2009
These are awesome. I scaled the recipe for 9 servings but used more potatoes than it called for(4.5 called for but I used 10). Still tasted good, in other words didn't need to add add'l seasoning. They were gobbled up - none left. Thanks!

A Good Easy Garlic Chicken

Reviewed: Jun. 2, 2009
This is ok. It is a basic recipe, one similiar to what I've used for a long time, but needs a little more zing. Except that I don't pan fry much because of cals and added fats; I've always used water to keep chicken from burning. Took a tip and duh used chicken broth and worked much better.

Buffalo Chicken Wings I

Reviewed: Mar. 25, 2008
We made this last night...YUM! The sauce made enough to cover 5 chicken tenderloins ( I used in place of wings). Used Frank's Hot Sauce - will definitely make again! Thanks for a great recipe!

Big Al's K.C. Bar-B-Q Sauce

Reviewed: Mar. 25, 2008
ABSOLUTELY FABULOUS!!! We loved this and it is very simple, and in spite of what seemed to be alot of ingredients, I had every one in stock (except for the celery seed). It is sweet with a nice tang at the end, if you don't like really sweet, be sure to reduce the sugar a bit I guess. But we loved it. Thank you so much for sharing!

Lighter Banana Muffins

Reviewed: Mar. 22, 2008
These are great for being so lowfat and low cal. I added the 1/4 c. milk and cinnamon per other reviewers...used 4 egg whites instead of 2 eggs. VERY good for what you get and not dry at all! Thank you Thank you Thank you - I love banana bread and muffins and now I have something to enjoy while getting back to goal. Wonder if I could convert this to banana bread?

Marinara Dipping Sauce

Reviewed: Jan. 24, 2008
LOVED IT!!! And I couldn't even follow the recipe right - had no tomatoes, so used 1 can tomato paste, no fresh basil, so used 1 tsp dried basil, no fresh garlic, so 1/4 tsp powdered, 1/2 c. water and salt & pepper to taste. Still....turned very YUMMY! Thank you!

Mrs. Sigg's Snickerdoodles

Reviewed: Jan. 24, 2008
These were excellent. I omitted the shortening, don't like to use it, and used butter instead. Only, my dough was way too sticky and I couldn't really roll it. Found out halfway through that if I put it in the refrigerator for 30 minutes or so it became much easier to work with. Tastes really good, pretty darn close to the commercial version put out by Masterpiece. Thanks! Much cheaper! :)

Skillet Sweet and Tangy Chicken

Reviewed: Jan. 14, 2008
Pretty good - my kids gobbled this up, always a good thing! I seasoned the chicken first with coriander, cumin, garlic, pepper and a bit of salt. I also used tomato sauce instead of soup (I never have tomato soup), and it came out quite nice. The sauce also goes over sauteed peppers quite well too. Thanks for a recipe I will use again.

Chocolate Banana Bread

Reviewed: Jan. 8, 2008
LOVED this! I've never really even heard of chocolate banana bread...omg this was so good. My birthday cake is always chocolate with a layer of bananas in the middle...so this was right up my alley! I added some pecan pieces to one of the loaves for the nut lover hubby of mine...he really liked it too. THANK YOU! I am sure I will be making again and again!

Rapid Mix Sweet Dough

Reviewed: Jan. 8, 2008
I really liked this recipe - I don't know if I'm nuts or not, but I had to add add'l flour, like 3 cups worth. It was just too sticky to rollout without it. I used it for making cinnamon rolls and turnovers. I will definitely make again and see if somehow I did something wrong (add too much liquid?). Anyways thank you!

Apple Turnovers

Reviewed: Jan. 8, 2008
Very good - so simple to make. I used the rapid mix sweet dough from this site to make the pastry sheets. I am shape-impaired I think, can't make a triangle turnover to save my life. Then figured out to just make rectangle and fold over. :) I also moistened tops with butter and sprinkled sugar on the tops - only because I was out of confectioner's sugar. These DO taste store-bought - I love those, so this will be great, as they are way to expensive in the store to eat regularly. Thank you!
