This was so good and the easiest dish in the world to prepare. Perfect weeknight supper. I, like others, used diced tomatoes (with garlic, oregano,etc) instead of the fresh tomatoes. That is only change I made! Served over sauteed polenta (stole this from another reviewer) accompanied by crusty bread, tossed salad and vino! Yummy.

Parmesan-Black Pepper Arborio Rice Pilaf

Reviewed: May 6, 2012

Good but not great. Came out mushy. Not a substitute for making risotto the slow way.

Easy Smoked Salmon Pasta

Reviewed: Apr. 14, 2012

This recipe rocks. Feel free to improvise but a must is to double the sauce. Also, I think it important to dish the noodles and the dish sauce over. Do not mix all together. I added halved grape tomatoes to the sauce along with some dill. Served with fresh Parmesan and red pepper flakes. Also doubled the salmon. Really really easy...finished everything in less than 25 minutes. My husband loved.

Roasted Lemon Herb Chicken

Reviewed: Apr. 8, 2012

This was ok but just nothing special. There are much better recipes on the site for roasted chicken. Mine just didn't have the flavor I hoped for, and also did not get as crisp as we like. Served with Mouse's mac and cheese from this site (yum) and grape tomatoes, dressed.

Mouse's Macaroni and Cheese

Reviewed: Apr. 8, 2012

Totally, absolutely decadent. I made as written. Fed 2 adults and 3 teens with small bowl of leftovers. Only change I made was to use shredded cheddar rather than the American cheese component as it was what I had on hand. This is the kind of recipe you hate to love.

Parmesan Sage Pork Chops

So yummy, made with medium thickness loin chops, boneless, and time was still perfect. Changed out bread crumbs with panko. Great.

Brined Bratwurst

Reviewed: Apr. 2, 2012

Wow. We have never boiled our brats before grilling. Did not want the beer brats...fearful that our teens might not like. Yes...we might be a bit naive! Anyway, followed this as written and it was awesome. The difference with boiling...skin got so very tender. Yummmm.

This is really not a recipe without modifications. Shake and Bake would be better than this. Sorry, but needs more.

Quick and Easy Sauteed Spinach

Reviewed: Jan. 3, 2012

This is really good. Used fresh garlic and freshly grated Parmesan. 10 ounces of spinach cooks down to a little over 1 serving. Need a lot more spinach for multiple servings.
