Breakfast Kolaches

Reviewed: Dec. 29, 2006
ok...Like another reviewer said earlier - when I actually got down to making this - the instructions had a lot of holes in it... Unless perhaps you have made Kolaches and know a bit about the results in advance.. For example...Is the sausage supposed to be cooked?? Raw???. Silly me...I made it with uncooked links and it turned out gross with everything melted on top of raw meat. I could only fit a teaspoon of hash browns in them if I made the bals the size instructed to make them! So we cooked them and tried again..My daughter and I burst out laughing at the amount we could fit on this little bit of dough... "ok..and you can have one teaspoon of potato on yours!" I could not ...get THAT many balls out of the recipe and had even doubled each piece and still there was no room to stuff them. Was I even suppossed to stuff them or leave the stuff on top. We tried it both ways..because we did not know. I wondered if by chance I was shaping them incorrectly. I too eventually went to the internet in an attempt to find a picture Too vague and for me this meant an eventual flop which never got to the table. I finally got tired of trying to make this work and what should have been my Christmas Morning Masterpiece ended up in the garbage on Christmas Eve... a total waste of ingredients and time. I will not make this again without clearer instructions! I guessed wrong! I think?? Sorry - I am usually not this hard on the recipes on this site.

Strawberry Spinach Salad I

Reviewed: Dec. 24, 2006
This was kind of boring I thought. If you look at the recipe there are only two ingredient on the spinach...almonds and strawberries - and I felt like it needed something. It was ok...but not a keeper for me.

Easy Slow Cooker Ham

Reviewed: Dec. 24, 2006
I think this could have been better for me. I am debating whether or not to try it again. I bought a precooked ham and as others suggested I planned to slow cook it for 5-6 hours. That was definitely too long for me - and I had an 8 lb ham in a huge crockpot and I drowned it in apple juice.. Even though I cooked it in liquid the meat tasted a bit dry and overdone. I should have taken it off by 4 hours I believe. It really did not even smell up my house like I expected. Who knows what I did wrong.

Judy's Strawberry Pretzel Salad

Reviewed: Dec. 24, 2006
I frankly thought this was kinda of icky. Sorry....My husband came up to me and whispered..."I think you messed up on the crust - I think there is way too much salt in it. I explained that it was not supposed to be a graham cracker crust - But I felt like I needed to make an announcement that it was supposed to be salty....Try to picture yourself in that position and if you can imagine it - you will experience it - I am pretty sure - I liked the top layers - but no one had seconds and I washed a ot down the snk at cleanup time..no thanks!

Southern-Style Crowder Peas

Reviewed: Dec. 16, 2006
I am giving this 5 stars - because I do not want to ruin the rating - but I searched literally probably 40 stores by phone and in person and could not find crowder peas in my state (Utah). I bought all the ingredients and it was a tremendous let down. Anybody familiar with crowder peas - I would love a good substitue. I read you could use blackeyed peas but the flavor was much milder - which is kind of a letdown. I so want this to be authentic. Any ideas from any of you would be appreciated??

Rugelach

Reviewed: Dec. 15, 2006
This was the perfect recipe! I am going to make it again. You need to make this for people that KNOW rugelach and how it differs in texture from cinnamon roles....Otherwise they might eating expecting a different consistency....hard to explain - but it has a crumbly - break apart in your mouth feel...and is not a chewy as a cinnamon roll. I loved it - but I also grew up eating it!

Slow-Cooked German Short Ribs

Reviewed: Dec. 13, 2006
This was a huge hit - I served it with rice and it was a definite keeper. My husband said it was one of his favorites. This was easy to make and I did not make any changes!

Asian Chicken Noodle Salad

Reviewed: Dec. 3, 2006
It was ggod - but not great. I think it needed a bit more greenery to match up with the other ingredients - it seemed like all nuts and grains and not enough salad to me.

Alfredo Blue

Reviewed: Dec. 3, 2006
I am sorry - This was terrible in my opinion. My whole family did not finish it = and I ended up apologizing and we made sandwiched instead and threw the whole thing out. Not for me! Sorry - maybe it is an aquired taste. I am also a blue cheese lover - so who knows!

Kalua Pig in a Slow Cooker

Reviewed: Dec. 3, 2006
It was good - but I suppose I needed something more. It was plain to me. My husband liked it - he grew up in Hawaii and he said - it was a great recipe.

Denise's Peanut Chicken

Reviewed: Dec. 3, 2006
I liked this - I think I made it very hot and spicy though - I did not have the oil that I needed in the beginning - so I used Chili Oil - but it worked and we loved it. It was hotter than I think many would like - but we like spicey. I am going to try it again as the recipe is written. My hubby did think it had "too many peanuts - so I will probably add less than called for next time.

Scotch Eggs

Reviewed: Nov. 6, 2006
I used Maple Sausage from a bag because I had it already and needed to use it - but it was really good. The sausage was for me wasy to form around the hard cooked eggs. I served it for dinner - but to me - it would make a better breakfast meal. It deserves a special occasion - I will probably make them again

Slow Cooker Chicken and Dumplings

Reviewed: Nov. 6, 2006
Fabulous - I loved this and will definitely make it again. It was done way earlier though. I can not imagine cooking it for 5-6 hours on high..perhaps on low....Mine was done and I would dare say a bit overdone on the chicken and I put the rolls on top at 4 hours. It could have easily used an hour less - for me than the 4 1/2 that it took on HIGH. I will try it on low next time!
