These were really good and have a good presentation. I made chocolate pudding instead of lemon. If I make these again, however, I will find a filling other than pudding. It just didn't seem to have the right texture or flavor as a filling for these. I like the idea of a lemon curd or maybe a chocolate mousse

Triple-Layer Pumpkin Spice Pie

Reviewed: Nov. 10, 2009

This was so easy to make (the most difficult part is finding the pudding in stock at the store), and tastes almost like a real pumpkin pie! I used skim milk and light cool whip, so this is a tasty treat for fewer calories.

Crunchy Pea Salad

Reviewed: Oct. 29, 2009

Very tasty! I didn't add radishes, and I used reduced-calorie mayonnaise. It was great in the fridge for days!

Pumpkin Turkey Chili

Reviewed: Sep. 30, 2009

The recipe is a great base to start with. I tasted it and agreed with other reviewers it needed more, so I added a can each of tomato sauce, corn, and black beans, as well as additional spices. I will be making this for years to come!

Marinade for Chicken

Reviewed: Jul. 14, 2009

My husband took one bite and said, "Are you KIDDING me?!" He loved it (and so did I)! We will be using this marinade time and again

Sesame Pasta Chicken Salad

Reviewed: Jun. 29, 2009

I made this because of the reviews, and I was disappointed. Every other recipe I've made on this site with such great reviews lived up to the reviews, but not this one. I won't make it again.

Ice Cream Cone Treats

Reviewed: Aug. 17, 2008

I made these to take to work on Valentine's Day and everyone loved them. I experimented a little with the amount to put in each cone, and I think I only filled them half full before baking. I used large nut cups turned upside down with an "X" cut in the bottom to prop them up while baking. I frosted them with the Fluffy White Frosting recipe from this site, which was perfect as it was shiny like ice cream, held its shape very well, and wasn't too rich so I could add a fair amount to the top without it being gross.

Lemon Cream Cheese Frosting

Reviewed: Aug. 17, 2008

I actually had to add more sugar in order to keep the frosting stable on the ginger cupcakes I made. I took them to work and everybody raved, and I personally didn't find it too sweet either. I'll use this recipe again!

Alyson's Broccoli Salad

Reviewed: Aug. 15, 2008

Made this for a potluck and it was a hit! I used Craisins instead of raisins and Oscar Mayer real bacon bits instead of bacon.

Black Bean and Salsa Soup

Reviewed: Mar. 5, 2008

So great! I love how simple and healthy this is, and it was delicious too. I added some jalapeno slices before blending, and corn while heating it up. I'll be making this frequently!

Fluffy White Frosting

Reviewed: Feb. 27, 2008

This was really good! I used it as frosting for ice cream cone cupcakes (cupcakes baked in actual ice cream cone cups). It was very light and airy, shiny, and marshmallowy. I followed the recipe exactly and made sure to whip it a lot!

Fluffy Peanut Butter Frosting

Reviewed: Feb. 22, 2008

Super great! I followed the recipe exactly, even though some reviews said to change the amounts. I just made sure the butter was room temperature and whipped it like crazy with the peanut butter. I put it on top of brownies I made in a mini-muffin pan and they were spectacular!

Impossible Coconut Pie I

Reviewed: May 29, 2005

This tasted identical to a coconut flan I made last summer. Actually, I'll be honest - I liked it okay because I like custard and flan - but it didn't taste like a pie at all. My boyfriend hated it and couldn't finish one slice. This would be a great recipe if you just renamed it - Coconut Custard or Coconut Flan
