Tree-Shaped Crescent Veggie Appetizers

Reviewed: Dec. 29, 2007
I made this two holiday parties this year. I made a few changes to this recipe both times with great success. I used only 1 can of crescent rolls tree and used 1/2 pkg dry ranch dressing instead of listed herbs. I think next time I will try reduced fat cream cheese to lighten it up a little.

Sweet Potato Oranges

Reviewed: Dec. 9, 2007
I made this for my in-laws for Thanksgiving. It was a show-stopper! My husband's grandmother couldn't stop complimenting me! Next year, I may have to make a double patch. My only complaint is the time it took to prepare the oranges. I prepared them and the potatoes the night before to speed it up. Thanks!

Roasted Red Pepper and Tomato Soup

Reviewed: Oct. 27, 2007
I made this delicious soup for lunch today with a few alterations. I used a jar of roasted red peppers, 1 clove minced garlic, 1 large (28 oz) can of tomatoes, and added 1 can of evaporated milk to the roux instead of the sour cream at the end (just to use what I had in my pantry. Hate running to the store for 1 thing. ) My husband and I really enjoyed this soup. I am sure it is probably even better with fresh veggies. I will be making this again very soon. Next time, I will puree the veggies before adding the chicken stock, etc. to reduce the time needed and to speed up the process for a busy weeknight meal.

Seafood Enchiladas

Reviewed: Jan. 18, 2006
These were good. Not crazy about the sauce. May try to tweek it a little next time. Not quite sure how to make it better. Other than that,went over pretty well at supper, so I will be making this again.

Orange Carrot Cookies

Reviewed: Jan. 18, 2006
I used butter instead of shortening--it was what I had on hand and added 1/2 tsp of orange extract to the glaze frosting. These turned out pretty good. Took them to work--they did not last long!

Chocolate Dipped Orange Biscotti

Reviewed: Jan. 17, 2006
I added 1/2 tsp orange extract and double dipped the bottoms in melted semi-sweet chocolate chips instead of the squares. I also drizzled the chocolate--thinned a little--on top of the biscottis. Looked great! I took them to work--Gone in minutes! Will make again!

Restaurant-Quality Baked Potato Soup

Reviewed: Dec. 7, 2005
omitted cornstarch. plenty thick enough. used two cans of diced potatoes--busy week-night supper. NO baking required. Turned out very nice. husband told me after we ate, that he does not like potato soup in general, not the recipe itself. so i probably will not make again. Oh well, more leftovers for me.

Chai Tea Mix

Reviewed: Dec. 5, 2005
I have made this several times. The first two times, I drank all of it. However, my husband discovered it the third and I have hardly gotten any of it! Oh well, I guess I couldn't keep it a secret for too long. :) I don't add the nutmeg, allspice or pepper. I also substitute fat-free creamers and sugar free creamers for their heavier conterparts. I plan of using splenda next time.

Chinese Chicken Fried Rice II

Reviewed: Dec. 5, 2005
This was good, quick and easy. Perfect mid-week evening meal. I omitted the chicken and added shrimp and 3/4 can of peas and carrots. I think I might use sesame oil next time. thanks

We love garlic! You have to with this one, or it might be too much. I served it with pasta. Very good. Easy too.

Pork Loin Stuffed with Spinach

Reviewed: Dec. 4, 2005
Ok. a good place to start from. Needs more flavor. I used a 1 3/4 lb pork loin and scaled down everything to match. Baked for 1 hour and 15 minutes. Juicy and tender. Just needs a kick.

Ultimate Spicy Spud Soup

Reviewed: Dec. 4, 2005
This was awful! I drained the grease/fat off the sausage---and it was still too greasy! Maybe it is just us, but we don't want to feel the burn--heartburn, that it for this pathetic soup. I will never make this again.

Spicy Chicken Soup

Reviewed: Dec. 3, 2005
Good. I added velveeta, leftover chicken--cooked whole chicken (5lb) in crock pot-used part for homemade chicken and noodles) and a can of cheese soup. Husband didn't like it as much as others that I have made. I probably make again ...when we need a quick and easy change.

French Onion Soup V

Reviewed: Dec. 3, 2005
This was my first time making a french onion soup. My husband liked a local restaurant's version, so I thought why not?. We were both happy with the results of this soup. The only change I made was to serve the bread separate...build your own style. I don't like soggy bread. I will definately be making this again! Thanks.

Chicken Mushroom Linguine

So many good ingredients...Such a waste! Neither my husband or I liked this one. Maybe it was just us. I felt that the dish needed something.

Fra Diavolo Sauce With Pasta

Reviewed: Oct. 15, 2005
I substituted the three cups of chopped tomatoes for 1 15oz can stewed tomatoes--ran thru the food processor to coarsely chop and 1 15 oz can of tomato sauce. I also used 1/2 the red pepper and added 1 tsp old bay seasoning-to add back flavor without adding more heat. Turned out great! I had never made a red sauce with seafood -always white or butter/wine. It was a nice, healthier change. Thanks.
