Cream-Braised Brussels Sprouts

Reviewed: Oct. 7, 2009

This recipe is very rich - to say the least. My husband loved it. I prefer a fresher tasting sprout, not one that tastes like it is clogging my arteries and making my but big. That's what potato chips are for. That said,it was good.

Baked Kale Chips

Reviewed: Oct. 7, 2009

I really enjoyed these - my family would not buy into it, but oh well for them. If ever there was an occasion to eat dehydrated kale, this would be my recipe. I would make sure that the spices were represented because without them, they are not as tasty

Burgundy Pork Tenderloin

Reviewed: Dec. 17, 2008

This was very easy and really a hit. I also sprinked my pork with s&p and some thyme, then browned it lightly in a skillet first. To the skillet I added minced shallots, 1 c. red wine, garlic, and because I had it handy, the juice from a can of Campbells French Onion soup. I did not have a packet of gravy on hand, so I thickened it in a saucepan with cornstarch/water. My husband loved the gravy and could tell it was something different (and better). I will definately make this again and again!

Mustard Onion Pork Chops

Reviewed: Feb. 29, 2008

I had my doubts about this recipe, and I used the yellow mustard but also added some honey to cut the taste of the 'straight up' French's. When it was nearly done I nearly died because it looked like pork chops in yellow mustard. No different. I knew that my husband would take one bite and know that it was yellow mustard on pork. To my surprise, he liked it and said he couldn't quite figure out what the taste was. I thought he was crazy because it seemed obvious to me. He really liked these, I was not quite as impressed.

Easy Creamy Pork Tenderloin

Reviewed: Feb. 29, 2008

THis did not have much flavor and was a waste of a normally tender piece of meat. I am not harsh on easy/slow cooked recipes, but this one was a bust. Sorry.

Chicken Enchiladas V

Reviewed: Feb. 29, 2008

I love this type of chicken enchilada and this recipe was great - sauce on the top and on the bottom, inside... I added cheese to the interior and made extra sauce. Wonderfully simple but a favorite of mine. thanks

Cracker Pork Chops

Reviewed: Feb. 29, 2008

This was a lot of mess (I hate dipping and then frying in batches) but my family absolutely loved this. It was good. I did the fry (dry) method and also seasoned the saltines. It was a huge hit!

Sweet Corn Muffins

Reviewed: Dec. 4, 2007

These were very good - just like I want corn muffins to taste like. Often they are dry and tasteless, this recipe made them slightly (but not overly) sweet. Great! I made them into mini-muffins for pre-school.

Seafood Omelets with Creamy Cheese Sauce

Reviewed: Aug. 3, 2007

Wow - this was awesome! I did not make the cheese sauce (too much work so early in the morning) or use shrimp - but followed the recipe - adding only some fresh chive to the eggs - and it was rich and lovely. I had some crab that my husband brought home from Alaska and we were saving for a special occasion. It is always a risk making something for the first time when using expensive ingredients. All I can say that the crab was not wasted on this dish - it was perfect for showing off the decadent nature of the seafood. It was lavish and heavenly. Many thanks for a great recipe!!!!!!!!!

Ranch Dipped Chicken Fingers

Reviewed: Apr. 25, 2007

wow I had trouble with this. The coating stuck to the baking sheet. The taste wasn;t too bad but I had to really amp up the spices and the methods used for this. It made me sad.

Pork Tenderloin with Creamy Herb Sauce

Reviewed: Apr. 25, 2007

The sauce for this was delicious! I loved the minced carrots in there, it provided a lot of flavor that was undetectable to my family. I plan to sneak minced carrots into a lot of foods now! Great recipe! Thanks!

Flax and Sunflower Seed Bread

Reviewed: Apr. 25, 2007

Great bread!!! I have tried many whole wheat bread recipes and they usually turn out very dense and not good. This was wonderful toasted with cream cheese or accompanying soup. I am making a loaf for a friend now!!!

Oatmeal Chocolate Chip Pancakes

Reviewed: Apr. 25, 2007

These pancakes were great. I was just looking for good flax recipes and found this. One of my kids liked it, one didn't (probably because it was different than what he is used to). I am a pancake fanatic (especially with chocolate chips) and really enjoyed them. I was also concerned with the consistency of the batter, but it turned out alright! Also, I used cake flour instead of the pastry and it turned out fine! Thanks so much!

Quinoa Side Dish

Reviewed: Feb. 17, 2007

very good healthy grain alternative - will make a fan out of most who try it. I used dried thyme and possibly too much at that - next time would try fresh - great!

Pizzelles II

Reviewed: Jan. 16, 2007

THis is a wonderful recipe for crisper pizzelles. I prefer this texture to the softer kind - it doesn't get any better. I use butter and also sift - it makes a difference in the texture for sure. You could also put in a bit more anise. grazie!
