Chickpea Salad with Red Onion and Tomato

Reviewed: Sep. 1, 2011

Really good salad! I made a few changes: I used a basket of Cherry tomatoes, cut in half; I also added a couple splashes of Balsamic Vinegar; and since my family LOVES Cilantro (I know many don't), added about 1 T. of freshly chopped Cilantro. It was sooo good. Very refreshing out on the deck. Garbanzos (and other legumes) are so healthy and very good to help control blood sugar, as well as adding fiber to the diet. So a healthy choice!

Amazing Pork Tenderloin in the Slow Cooker

Reviewed: Aug. 14, 2011

With so many great reviews, I was excited to try this recipe, but should have heeded all the negative ones. I followed the recipe exactly, but also studded the pork tenderloin with fresh garlic cloves. I also used Low Sodium soy sauce. After cooking it for 1 hour on High, and 3 hours on Low, the pork itself turned out moist and tender. But the sauce was horrible.. so salty as to be inedible. I rescued dinner by opening a can of Campbell's Beefy Mushroom soup, then adding a splash of Balsamic Vinegar, ground black pepper, and 1/4 cup of the juice from the slow cooker, and heating that up-- it made a great gravy. The one in the cooker was just too horribly salty to eat as is. I will make slow cooker pork tenderloin again, but not with the same ingredients--next time I'll try using the Campbells Beefy Mushroom plus some wine and fresh onions. Thanks anyway.

Artichoke Chicken

Reviewed: Jun. 20, 2011

Really very good, especially for being so easy! I can see making this for company. I did not have any sour cream (which a few others suggested using as part of the mayo)-- but I had leftover Tsatsiki sauce (Greek yogurt, garlic, chopped cucumbers & mint, lemon juice) and I used a little of that in place of some of the mayonnaise. I also added 1 additional minced garlic clove, and as others suggested-- I chopped the artichokes, then squeezed them dry. Turned out fabulous! Thanks for a great recipe!

Roasted Brussels Sprouts

Reviewed: Mar. 1, 2011

I have been making this recipe for years.. my hubby (who used to say he HATED Brussel Sprouts) and two sons love this, as do I! I also add a splash or two of Lemon Juice.... I can eat these up like they are CANDY! The brown, carmelized outsides are just fabulous and tasty. We love these, and how easy it is to make? It can't be beat.... wonderful dish.

Joe's Special Scramble

Reviewed: Feb. 18, 2011

I love this dish, and frozen spinach is so easy and quick, that is what I usually use (and cheaper than using fresh). I have been making this for years, and ALWAYS sprinkle freshly grated Parmesan cheese over this before serving, with more Parmesan offered at the table for those who like it. To me, it's got to have that fresh Parmesan to be authentic. Great to serve with cooked Orzo and garlic sourdough toast.

Best Steak Marinade in Existence

Reviewed: Feb. 4, 2011

This was excellent! My husband and sons gave it two thumbs up each! Really made the steaks delicious. My only changes: I dont ever use Garlic Powder, so I minced a large clove of garlic. I also couldn't resist: I added a couple squirts of Dijon Mustard. I think this would be delicious to use on grilled halibut, salmon or shrimp too-- we will try that soon!

Three Cheese Manicotti II

Reviewed: Aug. 11, 2010

Very very tasty! Family loved it. Like one other reviewer, I soaked these in very hot tap water for 15 minutes, so I did not need to boil them. Then when they cooled-- I took a scissors, and cut a slit all the way down one side of each Manicotti shell. Voila! Open them up, spoon in the filling, then pat them shut (the gooey filling keeps them closed, once you fill them). I used fresh garlic rather than garlic powder, and added a few Tablespoons of full fat Cream Cheese, which added a real "creaminess" to the filling. Loved it! Thanks..

Chicken in Mushroom Sauce

Reviewed: Oct. 27, 2009

Sooo delish and Sooo Easy! Made the sauce as listed, except added a splash of Sherry and 3 splashes of Soy. Put chix breasts in baking pan, sprinkled with onion salt, lemon pepper and Bacon salt. Wrapped each piece with bacon. Poured sauce over. Then added some very thinly shaved slices of fresh Parmesan cheese over each chicken piece. To finalize it, very lightly dusted some Paprika over the top (to give it color). Baked at 350 deg. F. for 45 min. Moist! Sauce was fabulous over rice! Hubby and sons lapped it up. Next time I will double the sauce. It was so easy and quick, thanks!

Awesome Slow Cooker Pot Roast

Reviewed: Sep. 4, 2009

I love this recipe and actually posted a very similar one on this site. What I do is make the recipe as listed, but I take 1/4 of the water and mix 1/2 pckg. of dry brown gravy mix in with that to a paste, and add with the rest of the water. I also add 1 tsp. of Worcestire sauce, 1/2 cup red wine, and a squirt of Ketchup, along with the Mushroom soup and onion soup mix. If it needs thickening, you can add a small amount of dehydrated "Potato buds". Wonderful meal over cooked egg noodles or mashed potatoes. and Yes-- if there are any leftovers, they make great sandwiches the next day.

Unbelievable Chicken

Reviewed: Aug. 28, 2009

Not quite "unbelievable", but pretty darn good! My family was very happy with this chicken-- it is a keeper! Very moist and flavorful. We did add a few shakes of red pepper flakes, plus a "spritz" of soy sauce and 1/8 tsp. dried Oregano to the marinade. Very good, thanks for giving us the recipe!

Baked Pesto Chicken

Reviewed: Jul. 10, 2009

I wanted to love this recipe... sounded so easy and wonderful. The chicken did turn out very moist, but just too bland for my family. I even marinated it for 2 hours in some pesto, plus a little garlic and basil. Sliced leftovers did make a nice sandwich the next day.

Becki's Oven Barbecue Chicken

Reviewed: Aug. 2, 2007

My whole family LOVED this sauce! Gobbled it all up.. next time I will DOUBLE the recipe for sure. I cooked the chicken on my indoor grill pan, turned out moist and juicy, with this delicious sauce! Into the sauce I added some soy sauce and a couple shakes of Chipotle Tabasco sauce in as well, it was super. Thanks for a great recipe.

Balsamic-Glazed Salmon Fillets

Reviewed: Sep. 13, 2006

So easy, and turned out so moist! Next time I will marinate it longer (I only did for 15 min.), but I liked the "light" flavor that complemented, rather than dominated, the wonderful salmon taste. Good recipe, thanks!

This was a great, fast, easy dinner! I used half Gruyere and half grated Parmesan. I also added about 1 tsp. of fresh lemon juice and a small clove minced garlic. It was wonderful served with buttered vermicelli noodles and steamed green beans. A quick recipe I WILL make again-- my hubby loved it.

Pecan Pie V

Reviewed: Nov. 1, 2005

Like another reviewer said, this pie did not hurt my teeth! Mine did NOT turn out gritty in the least as others said. I added 1/2 cup white chocolate chips, and a few Whole Pecans which I placed on the top to make it look pretty. Easy and wonderful! My pecan pie of choice from now on! The whole family loved it, disappeared quickly.

Pesto Cheesy Chicken Rolls

Reviewed: Sep. 6, 2005

This was great! My teen son asked for 2nds & 3rds, then scraped the pan clean. I used Asiago cheese and after rolling up, dipped each piece in Creamy Italian dressing, then Italian bread crumbs. Next time I will make MORE! It is easy and really delish!
