Broccoli Chicken Divan

Reviewed: Jan. 3, 2012

With a few modifications, this is a five star dish. Added sour cream and shredded mexican cheese blend to the soup mixture- only had cream of chicken on hand. Omitted the cheese from the top. Served over rice- was a big hit with the family- everyone had seconds! great way to use leftover rotisserie chicken.

Slow Cooker Pork Chops II

Reviewed: Nov. 8, 2011

Made recipe as directed and it was tasty, yet the pork chops were a bit dry. They were super tender, however, which is a nice switch from grilled pork chops which can be tough. As a family we decided that a little dry is preferable to tough. Thanks for the recipe; will make again!

Cherry Cobbler I

Reviewed: Jul. 23, 2010

Followed the recipe exactly. It was a bit sweet for our tastes- next time I'll cut the sugar down- especially if we have such wonderful Oregon cherries again! Will also make this with blueberries here in a few weeks. Thanks!

Easy Slow Cooker Carne Guisada

Reviewed: Mar. 3, 2010

Followed the recipe exactly, but I did cut the meat chunks smaller to be more kid-friendly. This is definitely a soupy, stew-like meal. Might be good with hominy added, and carrots would be a nice addition too. Served this with crusty french bread. Can't wait for lunch leftovers today! Thanks for the recipe!

Cajun Seafood Pasta

Reviewed: May 27, 2009

Came across this recipe when searching for something to do with the scallops and shrimp in my freezer. This recipe hit the spot! A few modifications (out of necessity for what I had on hand): Monterey Jack instead of Swiss, all dried herbs instead of fresh, used minimal pepper to satisfy the kids, and I added a bit of garlic while sauteing the seafood before adding it to the sauce when the sauce was ready. Next time I will try to have fresh parsley on hand and will definitely try with Swiss, though the Jack cheese was great. This was very rich, so perhaps half and half would be just as good, but not so rich. Thanks for the inspiration!

Cabbage and Noodles

Reviewed: Mar. 18, 2009

This was a hit with the entire family! I did drain off the bacon grease and left a tablespoon or so in the pot before adding the onion. With the onion I added some minced garlic. I poured in a tiny bit more of the drained bacon grease when I added the cabbage. I like spicy food, and this was perfect with some Sriracha Hot Chili Sauce. Thanks for the recipe!

Sausage Smothered in Red Cabbage

Reviewed: Feb. 23, 2009

We had leftover red cabbage from fish tacos so I came here looking for something to do with it. Based on other reviews, I decreased the salt significantly, but stuck to the recipe otherwise. I used a crisp Granny Smith apple which added just the right amount of tart/ tangy flavor to the dish. My 4 and 7-year-old daughters thought it was "ok", but my husband and I liked it. Served it with mashed potatoes and asparagus and of course, Sriracha hot sauce on the side. We eat many meals with Sriracha ;-) Thanks for the recipe!

Shrimp and Feta Cheese Pasta

Reviewed: Nov. 24, 2008

Made this tonight for the first time. Since I was trying to use ingredients I had on hand, I used Rigatoni instead of Linguine and used two cans of diced tomatoes instead of fresh. As with other reviewers, I used around 1/2 cup wine. The taste was GREAT, but it is definitely chunky with the tomatoes. I will definitely make this again, but perhaps blend half of the tomatoes first.

Spiced Pumpkin Seeds

Reviewed: Nov. 22, 2008

These were great, but to make them more healthy I used Olive Oil in place of the margarine and cooked until very crunchy. Perfect consistency and taste!

Stuffed Acorn Squash

Reviewed: Aug. 12, 2007

We have been loving this recipe! We did bake it without the foil for the last half as we like a crunchy top. Will make again and again!

Easy Pizza Sauce III

Reviewed: Aug. 12, 2007

For years we have made "Exquisite Pizza Sauce" which is very tasty... but we were in need of a switch for our Saturday night pizza night and gave this one a try. It is great, but I do add garlic powder and onion powder to taste.

Potato Leek Soup I

Reviewed: Aug. 12, 2007

I have made this several times and love it every time. I made it for a SuperBowl party one year on a snowy day and everyone raved- also good for vegetarian friends since you can use vegetable broth instead of chicken broth. I do serve it with shredded cheddar, bacon bits, and green onions so guests can garnish as they desire. Great recipe!

Awesome Slow Cooker Pot Roast

Reviewed: Aug. 12, 2007

We've tried a lot of recipes for Pot Roast and this one is the best. I add fresh, quartered mushrooms the last hour or so of cooking. They are tasty and help make a nice presentation.

Arrabbiata Sauce

Reviewed: Oct. 13, 2003

Too chunky- I was looking for a smoother arrabbiata sauce. So after ingredients were combined, I put them in the blender to puree them into a smooth consistency. I then added a splash of milk to make it a bit more creamy,and simmered as directed. Without these modifications I would give this recipe 3-4 stars, but after making the creamy version, I definitely give it 5 stars! Spicy, creamy. and even better the next day! Thanks!
