Onion Roasted Sweet Potatoes

Reviewed: Oct. 20, 2009
The potatoes were tasty, but way too oniony. I'd rather not use this seasoning.

Honey Lime Chicken Wings

Reviewed: Jun. 8, 2009
I used lemon juice instead and omitted the lime zest. This came out good, but not the best I've ever had!

Restaurant-Style Buffalo Chicken Wings

Reviewed: Jun. 8, 2009
I used Frank's Buffalo Sauce, so didn't need the spices besides the salt & pepper. I also baked at 400 for 1 hour (as per Frank's instructions) and it was delicious!I gave it 4 stars simply because all you need is Frank's!

Italian Breaded Pork Chops

Reviewed: Apr. 17, 2009
I marinated with garlic powder, then floured, egged and breaded, then egged and breaded again. The breading mix was delicious and these pork chops were a hit! I also used a ziplock bag like shake and bake,

Traditional Mashed Potatoes

Reviewed: Apr. 17, 2009
I did as someone recommended and threw two cloves in the boiling water, only I crushed them first and then mashed with the potatoes. I warmed the milk and butter together, didn't measure the salt and pepper but did it by sight, and added a dash of garlic powder. These were so easy and so delicious! Great with the southern gravy I made.

Nana's Barbeque Sauce

Reviewed: Apr. 17, 2009
This was fantastic and it was so quick and easy to make! I also used garlic salt instead of celery salt and a smokey onion mustard instead of mustard powder. I loved this sauce on ribs and will use it regularly.

Baby Back Ribs

Reviewed: Apr. 17, 2009
This was fantastic! I used beef ribs this time. As Cathy recommended, I used the rub first: 1/4 cup brown sugar, 1 1/2 Tbsp. paprika, 1 Tbsp. kosher salt, 1 1/2 Tbsp. black pepper, 1 tsp. garlic powder, 1 tsp. onion powder, 1/4-1/2 tsp. cayenne red pepper. But remove the back membrane before rubbing spices on. Then I used Nana's Barbecue Sauce from this site and marinated them in foil for at least 8 hours. I put the foil bunches in a dish for dripping and cooked for 2 1/4 hours like someone recommended. Then I put fresh sauce on the ribs and broiled for 15 minutes. This was fantastic! I will try with pork ribs next time. P.S. Nana's bbq sauce is amazing!

It's Chili by George!!

Reviewed: Apr. 8, 2009
This was so good! I made it a tad too spicy, and extra sweet, but still very good. I served with sour cream and Worcester Tabasco (they don't sell this locally but it's great) sauce and tortilla chips. It was a daunting preparation, but worth it!

Crispy Fried Fish

Reviewed: Apr. 8, 2009
To me this came out way too oily. I couldn't finish the fish. I give it a three because it could have been my fault, I may have left the fish in the oil too long, I'm not a fish expert yet. Not sure I'll try again.

Sweet and Sour Chicken I

Reviewed: Apr. 8, 2009
I used shrimp instead of chicken and stir-fried it with the green pepper, instead of frying. Then I tossed the shrimp, green peppers and pineapple in the sauce mixture, before serving. I was pleased to get the color mixture spot on, but will make the sauce a little thicker next time. I served with jasmine rice. I'll definitely try it with chicken sometime, but am not looking forward to the work!

Beer and Brown Sugar Steak Marinade

Reviewed: Mar. 20, 2009
This was good, but I made it a little too sweet and cooked it for too long! My fault!

Cola Pot Roast II

Reviewed: Mar. 9, 2009
This was great! I only cooked it for 1.5 hours at 350 and then for 30 min at 250, my roast wasn't that thick. I added potatoes, but didn't like the taste on those.

Lisa's Easy Chicken

Reviewed: Jan. 12, 2009
I made this recipe for 3 and here's what I did: I sauteed about 4 crushed and chopped garlic cloves with a tbsp extra v-olive oil and half a diced yellow onion. I added 1/2 diced tomato (I'm not a fan of tomatoes), 1/4 diced green pepper, 1/4 diced yellow pepper, 1/4 diced red pepper and 3 chicken breasts cubed. I poured a packet of sazon seasoning, 1/4 a cube of chicken & tomato bouillon, 1/2 cup of water, 1/2 tsp black pepper and a sprinkle of cayenne pepper and let cook covered over low heat for about another 15 minutes, mixing occasionally, then 10 minutes under medium heat, adding a little water so that it doesn't dry out. Note: I chopped and diced as I went so there are stages, so when I say "another 15 minutes" I mean after all is in together. It came out juicy and very flavorful, will definitely make again!

Honey Baked Chicken II

Reviewed: Nov. 3, 2008
I scaled back the butter like the other reviewers, but also threw in a tsp of cayenne pepper and 2 tbsp of sweet onion mustard. I roasted at 350 for 1 hour, had it covered for only 30 minutes of that, then at 400 for 30 min and 425 for 10 min, to get it crispy. I basted it every 30 minutes and poured a little of the uncooked, thick honey mix over the chicken right before serving. It was yummy!

Candied Yams

Reviewed: Sep. 30, 2008
I mixed in the brown sugar with the yams as recommended, then dabbed the top with butter all over. I then sprinkled cinnamon over the butter and covered in a layer of marsh mellows. I would definitely use more marsh mellows next time.

Three Berry Pie

Reviewed: Aug. 31, 2008
This recipe was a major success! I used 3/4 cup sugar/cinnamon mix instead. As recommended, I put another tbsp cornstarch in the mix and also some cornstarch/sugar on the pie crust bottom before putting in the mix. For the berries: 1 1/2 cups strawberries, 1 1/2 cup blueberries, 1 cup raspberries, 1 cup blackberries. The top crust I coated with egg wash and then sprinkled with some sugar/cinnamon mix. Rave reviews, and devoured!

Easy Arroz con Gandules

Reviewed: May 7, 2008
My rice came out so mushy that it was inedible. I'm a good cook, I did not care for this recipe.
