Ham Roll Ups II

Reviewed: Jun. 30, 2005

Good, made for a party and they went well. I also cut up the green onion rather than using the stalk. Great flavor.

Chocolate Chip Banana Bread II

Reviewed: Jun. 30, 2005

My kids wolfed this down... my husband has declared no other banana bread will be made in this house unless it's this one. Yeah, they liked it :) The only thing I changed is I used baking soda instead of powder, because I was out :)

Beets with Onion and Cumin

Reviewed: Jan. 4, 2005

I love beets. Seriously. I know that makes me weird, but that's okay. My husband doesn't like them, I usually just boil and season. So I go on a quest to find something that he might like... he said they were "okay" but my 4 year old ate two large helpings! We didn't have tomatoes so I substituted tomato sauce and I didn't have cumin seeds so I used the stuff in the jar. Overall, I think it was good, I think it would've been better with fresh tomatoes, but it was a keeper. I put some of the sauce over my oregano chicken I made that same night and it was devine!

Grilled Radishes

Reviewed: Jan. 4, 2005

Okay, I admit it. I don't like radishes. In fact, when my produce delivery service delivered these this week I cringed inwardly. BUT I'd only had them raw on a salad so off I went looking for a way to cook them... and found... THIS. I was amazed.. I like radishes now :) The garlic is just great... yum! Even my veggie-scared husband liked them! The only thing I did differently is that I didn't have time to do the grill packet thing, so I pan-grilled/fried them on the stove. I give it a 4 only because my son didn't like it ;)

Six Can Chicken Tortilla Soup

Reviewed: Oct. 29, 2004

My family gives this a thumbs up. A little bland for my hubby, so he kicked his up a little, but so so so easy!

Sweet-Potato Muffins

Reviewed: Oct. 22, 2004

Yum! Finally a way to get my kids to eat sweet potatoes! I left out the nuts, added some milk and cooked them for 15 extra minutes, they were perfect and my kids think they are cupcakes :) Surprisingly sweet and taste great!

Pan-Poached Alaskan Salmon Piccata

Reviewed: Feb. 2, 2004

OH MY GOSH. This was incredible. My husband and I are still talking about how wonderful this one 2 days later. I would make it again. It took much longer to cook for me, but we had large salmon steaks. The only thing I did differt is I didn't have boullion, so I used some chicken seasoning. It was so so so so great!

Sugar Cookie Icing

Reviewed: Dec. 24, 2003

I'm giving this a 3 because I see so many peopled like this one... I'm not sure what I did wrong, I followed the directions to the letter. The icing was so gooey, it was nearly impossible to spread on the cookies. Just a disaster. We ended up only icing a few, it was just too much work... I added more syrup, I added more milk, trying to get it to work, but it was just too gooey to work with.

Blue Ribbon Sugar Cookies

Reviewed: Dec. 24, 2003

These were perfect. I used them in my cookie press from pampered chef and they turned out perfect... absolutely perfect. Tasted great, light and slightly crispy... perfect perfect! A keeper for sure!

Clone of a Cinnabon

Reviewed: Dec. 21, 2003

These were GREAT! Close enough to a mall cinnamon roll that DH loved them! I've made them three times in the past few weeks... I loved that the dough came out almost rubbery from the machine... VERY easy to work with.

Lemon Ice I

Reviewed: Aug. 19, 2003

This turned out SO good and I won first prize in our family's freeze off with it. I left out the zest, just used lemon juice from the bottle even.

Beef Nacho Casserole

Reviewed: Jul. 20, 2003

We really liked this one! I had to change it for what I had, I used a can and a half of Rotel instead of salsa (drained it a little bit) and used cheddar cheese. A keeper for sure. Next time I might sub Ranch Dressing for the mayo just to kick it around it a bit. VERY yummy!

Black Forest Mini Cheesecakes

Reviewed: May 19, 2003

These were a HUGE hit at our 10th wedding anniversary. My family isn't big on sour cream so instead of the topping, I used creamed cream cheese and sugar and topped it with that. HUGE hit. Highly reccomended.

Aunt Teen's Creamy Chocolate Fudge

Reviewed: Dec. 24, 2002

Every year I try to make fudge and every year it never sets, it's always runny. Until this year... this is by far the EASIEST and most problem-free recipe I've ever tried. I followed it exactly as it was and used cookie piece pecans. YUM! My only complaint? It's too rich, you can only eat a very small piece at a time! :)

Cheese Lover's Tuna Casserole

Reviewed: Nov. 19, 2002

DEFINITELY "Cheese Lover's", but my family is major cheese-a-holics, so this was a GREAT recipe. I probably didn't use as much cheese, I kind of guessed at it. I used grated cheese as well. I actually made this ahead and froze it, it froze VERY well and was the best Tuna Casserole I've made. A keeper for sure!

Fragrant Lemon Chicken

Reviewed: Oct. 21, 2002

This one was okay. It wasn't bland, but wasn't as flavorful as I like. I would make it again, with some serious alterations. My 2 year old liked it pretty well.

Simple White Cake

Reviewed: Oct. 21, 2002

I made this twice. The first time the cupcakes were a little dense, but I think I may have cooked them too long. The second time, I doubled the recipe and they were PERFECT. I also put sprinkles in the mix to make confetti cake. They were great for my son's birthday! Thanks for sharing this one... this was easier than a mix even!
