Blue Ribbon White Bread

Reviewed: Oct. 10, 2006

I made this and it looked and smelled wonderful!! The taste is ...okay...it makes fantastic toast or for a side of bread for dinner but as sandwich bread it is a little too dense. My 4yr old LOVES it, he will eat the bread with nothing on it. I made it with bread flour instead of all purpose, maybe that is why it is so dense. Next time I am going to half it & use all purpose flour.

Reviewed: Sep. 25, 2006

Made it for Mother's Day and it was the hit of the brunch!! Just don't pour the dressing on too far in advance due to the Spinach wilting. Doesn't keep for long...

Pistachio Fluff Fruit Salad

Reviewed: Jun. 13, 2006

This salad was HUGE!! Delicious but it does not keep well after a couple of days, the fruit starts breaking down and the banannas will turn so make sure you make this for a big picnic or party if you are using the orginal measurements.

Scones

Reviewed: Jun. 13, 2006

I think this a great recipe.... originally the dough will be sticky...you just need to add a few tablespoons of flour while kneading and it turns out great! I added raisins and cinammon for one recipe and cranberries & pumpkin spice for another...beautiful!

Salisbury Steak

Reviewed: Jul. 27, 2005

This was the first Salisbury Steak I have ever made...and it was a hit... I took suggestions and used a package of Lipton Onion soup mixed with 1 1/2 Cups of water...and followed the directions...turned out beautiful! My 3yr old LOVED it! But my picky hubby said "Nope doesn't taste like the Marine Corp Boot Camp Salisbury Steak" Oh well...it was probably better, he doesn't know what is good for him!! It has been made several times over in my home...THANKS!

Vanilla Glaze

Reviewed: Jul. 19, 2005

This was great...I messed up and had to redo it though... make sure if you use butter with salt...to omit the salt in the recipe. (ewwwww) I did have to add a teaspoon more of milk and it turned out fantastic!

Blueberry Cream Cheese Pound Cake I

Reviewed: Jul. 19, 2005

I followed the advice of others and this cake was fantastic! I used french vanilla cake mix, coated a pint of blueberries in flour to prevent them from sinking in the batter and I put the oven up to 350 for 30 then covered the bundt with foil and baked an additional 10 minutes.... It was moist & delicious & devoured! I used the recipe for Vanilla Glaze from this site too and sprinked powdered sugar & cinnamon.... perfect coffee cake & after school snack!! I will be trying strawberries next time, thanks for all of the helpful hints!

Pumpkin Chocolate Chip Cookies I

Reviewed: Nov. 26, 2004

This cookie was requested by a Marine buddy of my Marine Hubby... I have never heard of it or made it before but lo'an behold here it is!! And it is GREAT! OoH-Rah!! I tweaked with it just a little bit... I used roughly 3/4 of the can of Pumpkin puree (didn't use a measuring cup),I put in a full bag of chocolate chip morsels (12oz),1/2cup of butter flavored shortening and 2 teaspoons of the pumpkin spice instead of the individual spices called for in the recipe. The dough rises high when baking insted of spreading so keep that in mind if you are packing for presents or shipments. I got compliments of "Just like Mom's...where did you get the recipe?"

Spinach Pasta Salad

Reviewed: Apr. 9, 2004

Super! Delicious! If you have a small to medium red onion slice the whole thing...if it is a HUGE red onion do half ...besides that stick with the directions and you will have a perfect filling salad with just the right amount of seasonings. I used Ken's Italian Dressing with Parmesan and it added greatly ....I have already been asked to pass the recipe along...thanks for the contribution!

Fettuccini with Mushroom, Ham and Rose Sauce

Reviewed: Mar. 31, 2004

This was a great recipe..well worth the time. It was rich and filling but I recommend to either leave the red pepper flakes out or go half as much if you are making for youngsters. My 2yr old loves this dish!
