Chocolate Zucchini Cake I

Reviewed: Aug. 30, 2009
This is REALLY good. So moist and not a trace of zucchini in it when you eat it. You're sure fool the kids, or anyone who doesn't like their veggies, when you serve this cake. I would add extra chips, though. Needs more chocolate!

Marinated Grilled Shrimp

Reviewed: Aug. 12, 2009
Holy mackrel, is this GOOD! I made it exactly as written and I wouldn't change a single thing. Really excellent. Just remember not to overcook the shrimp or they'll be tough but I've definately found my new recipe for shrimp on the barbie!

Chicken Pot Pie IX

Reviewed: May 21, 2009
Oh YES!! This recipe rocks! The only problem I had was, when I pre baked that bottom pie shell, it shrunk up a bit and that was a problem in that my fillling didn't all go into it. Make sure you pull that bottom shell up and over the edge of your pie plate so it doesn't do that! Otherwise, it was very good. Will make again.

Missy's Candied Walnut Gorgonzola Salad

Reviewed: Mar. 17, 2009
Oh My Gosh...is this GOOD!!! I added just a bit of sugar to the vinaigrette mixture and put in some apples but otherwise, it was a total winner! Plan to make it for "company" next week, it was that good. I had a similiar salad in a restaurant in Portland, OR, a few years ago and it "wow'ed" me so when I saw this nearly identical recipe, I had to try it. Will make again and again, I'm sure. Thanks.

Yakisoba Chicken

Reviewed: Dec. 4, 2008
OMG - Is this GOOD! So, AMAZINGLY good! Only change I made was to add about 1/2 tsp. ground ginger, just because it seemed to belong there. Will make again and again!

Macaroni and Cheese V

Reviewed: Dec. 26, 2007
The onion overwhelmed the taste for me. Perhaps I used too much. What IS a "small" onion, after all. I used about 1/4 cup and it was still too much. And, GRAINY... Hate that grainy taste. And I did not care for the bread crumbs at all. Sigh...

BACARDI® Select Double-Chocolate Rum Cake

Reviewed: Dec. 21, 2007
I had a number of problems. Made this cake in a springform pan. I peeked in at about the 45 min. point to find the whole top was split wide open. Oh my. I had to bake this at least 15 minutes longer than the recipe stated. I had a very hard time getting the glaze to absorb. In fact, I didn't put it all in. Used some "on the side" at serving time. The chocolate topping became so hard on this cake it was eating a candy bar on top of your cake. Plus, it made it so hard to cut. And the white chocolate I used would not melt to a drizzling consistency at all so I skipped that and just grated some white chocolate on top. All that said, it still tasted very good. But it was a pain to make and I don't know that I'd do it again. If I did, I surely would use a more traditional "soft" frosting on top.

Blue Cheese Chicken Wing Dip

Reviewed: Jan. 22, 2006
Made this today for the football playoffs. Used Frank's hot sauce. It seemed like it was waaaay to thin. The chicken got lost in all that sauce. Perhaps my chicken breasts were smaller than needed. At any rate, if I made it again, I'd cut the hot sauce and the blue cheese dressing in half. Hubby thought it was too spicy as well, but that's not new for him!

It's Chili by George!!

Reviewed: Dec. 7, 2005
This chili is REALLY good! I did miss the appearance of tomatoes, though, so I think I'll throw in some canned ones next time out. Otherwise, it was stellar!

Blackberry Wine Cake I

Reviewed: Feb. 14, 2005
YES!!! to the cake NO!!! to the glaze. Done exactly as the recipe indicated, it would NOT incorporate. I had to put the it on top the stove and heat it to get the butter to work into it. Then the whole lot was WAAAAY to liquid (even after cooling for hours) so I had to add at least a cup more powdered sugar. If it were to make this again, I'd start the glaze by creaming the (soft) butter and sugar first. THEN adding only as much wine as necessary to make a good consistency. I couldn't find blackberry wine or Jello so I made a raspberry version. Good taste!

Ben's Seafood Dip

Reviewed: Feb. 7, 2005
I made this for the most recent Super Bowl party. It sure makes A LOT! Everyone said they liked it but I still brought half of it home so I'm wondering how much they really liked it!? I added 3 tsp. of Old Bay seasoning (as someone had suggested) and I think it added a lot to the taste. Not sure if I would make it again, though since I brought so much back home.

Pineapple Puffs

Reviewed: Aug. 12, 2003
As others have stated, not a LOT of pineapple taste in these but I still liked them. Worth a go if you have extra pineapple to use up, like I did.
