I'd never made fresh asparagus before I tried this recipe. Even after halving the butter and oil it was slightly greasy, but otherwise great. I drained the asparagus on some papertowels after I cooked them to remove some of the grease. My 7 year old son absolutely loved this and ate all of his veggies before he touched anything else on his plate. I'll make this again but try a little less butter next time.

Ruby-Red Strawberry Sauce

Reviewed: Jun. 3, 2009

This sauce was excellent and easy to prepare. After reading several reviews, I used OJ instead of the concentrate. I made it to pour over pancakes and the sauce was a major hit with my son and husband. I'll definitely be making this again.

Cinnamon Coffee Cake II

Reviewed: Mar. 8, 2009

Wow! My husband asked me to make a coffee cake for his birthday and since I'd never made one, this recipe sounded doable. It was fantastic. The local supermarket didn't have butterscotch pudding, but they did have a pumpkin spice kind and I used that instead. I also used 3/4 applesauce and 1/4 oil. Hubby loved it and so did my son. We will definitely make this again!

Bacon and Cheddar Stuffed Mushrooms

Reviewed: Feb. 8, 2009

These mushrooms are always a hit at parties and are there are never any leftovers. I use regular mushrooms and cook about 6 slices of bacon because I peel the fatty part off before chopping it. I sprinkle the tops with red pepper flakes before baking.

Four Cheese Sauce

Reviewed: Feb. 8, 2009

This sauce is a hit in my family. I've made it several times and serve it over pierogies instead of pasta. I add a little pepper and garlic powder to spice it up some. Last time I made it I accidently added 1 cup too much cheese but it still turned out pretty good.

Apricot Chicken I

Reviewed: Feb. 8, 2009

My mom used to make something like this when I was growing up and I loved it, so I had a lot of hope for this recipe. The onion soup was way too overpowering, but the chicken was juicy and I didn't mind the sweetness. I'm planning on making it again but I'll omit the onion soup and add some pepper flakes and minced garlic to give it a little kick.

Simply Potatoes® Easy Shepherd's Pie

Reviewed: Feb. 8, 2009

I needed a new shepherd's pie recipe and this one definitely fit the bill. No one in my family likes onions so I omitted them, and I substituted green peas instead of the beans because I already had them on hand. I think next time I'm going to add some fresh mushrooms to the mix. My 7 year old son loved this recipe and asked if it could be added to the menu again soon.

Banana Crumb Muffins

Reviewed: Feb. 8, 2009

By far the best banana muffin recipe I've ever tried. I've brought these to brunches and to the office and always get complimented on them. I don't change a thing about the recipe...it's fantastic as is.

Overnight Apple Cinnamon French Toast

Reviewed: Feb. 8, 2009

I love this recipe and it has become a Christmas morning tradition in my family. Both my mother and mother in law rave about it - the best thing is how easy it is to put together! I only use 1 cup of milk to help eliminate sogginess, and I also use 1 1/2 cans of pie filling because I can't get it all to fit in the pan. Spray the tin foil with some Pam before covering the pan; it will help prevent the bread from sticking during baking.

Sticky Buns II

Reviewed: Mar. 16, 2005

Quick, easy, and delicious!! After reading that some others had problems with the dough, I added slightly less milk and refrigerated the dough for a few minutes before rolling. It still stuck a little, but not too bad. I made a glaze with 2 1/2 tbs confectioners sugar, 1 tbs milk and 1/8 tsp of orange extract and drizzled it over the bottoms of the rolls before inverting them. The only thing I had problems with was they stuck to the tin; I'll wait only 5 minutes before removing next time. Fantastic recipe!

Peanut Butter Cookies VI

Reviewed: Jun. 3, 2004

This cookie is missing something...can't quite put my finger on it. They did turn out very soft, but the flavor was lacking, even though I did double the peanut butter like a lot of previous reviewers did.

Sarah's Banana Bread Muffins

Reviewed: Jul. 24, 2003

This recipe is awesome. I don't like nuts and didn't have any coconut, so I added raisins instead, which turned out great. I also added 1 tsp vanilla and a sprinkling of cinnamon. Definitely a keeper!!
