These are delicious. I only made one minor change - I didn't have quick oats so I used the regular (old fashioned) kind. I thought the 8 mini meatloaves were too tiny when I formed them. I reformed them to make 4 and they were better. Yes you could eat more of them, but I was concerned about them drying out because they were so little. Next time I will 1.5 this recipe and make 4 for 4 adults.

Baked Pasta Primavera Casserole

Reviewed: Dec. 16, 2009

I don't know how this got such great ratings. It's jarred pasta sauce with frozen veggies. It's edible but much more appropriate as a side dish. But I don't think I would even serve it as that.

Pumpkin Pancakes

Reviewed: Oct. 14, 2009

I really liked this recipe. The only change I made was using whole wheat flour. Otherwise I wouldn't change a thing.

Apple Butter Pumpkin Pie

Reviewed: Oct. 13, 2009

I made this exactly as instructed and it was delicious! I loved the topping. The topping is what makes this pie unique, so don't skip it. This pie isn't much different than a regular pumpkin pie as far as flavor goes, so don't expect something wildly different. It's just good pie!

Jerre's Black Bean and Pork Tenderloin Slow Cooker Chili

Reviewed: Oct. 8, 2009

We liked this. I followed this recipe exactly, except I swapped one can of beans for corn. The recipe didn't specify whether I should drain the beans, so I didn't. It turned out pretty good. There is a LOT of meat in this. If you want to cut costs, this can be a much less expensive recipe if you cut down a half pound of meat, and perhaps add a can of diced tomatoes. Also, others recommended using pork loin instead of tenderloin - at half the price, I might try that next time - I just wanted to stay true to the recipe this first time.

Beef and Bean Chimichangas

Reviewed: Sep. 12, 2009

These were pretty good, but reminded me more of burritos than chimichangas.

Slow Cooker Split Pea Sausage Soup

Reviewed: Sep. 12, 2009

If this would have had one or two more boullion cubes and maybe a little less water (half cup or so) it would have been perfect. It needed just a little more flavor and was a tad on the thin side. I will make this again with these changes. UPDATE: I used one less cup of water and three more boullion cubes and it was perfect!

Make Ahead Breakfast Casserole

Reviewed: Jul. 6, 2009

This was really good. Made exactly as stated in the recipe but left out the can of mushrooms in fear the kids would not eat it. Also I didn't make it the night before - I just made it right away.

I am so proud I now know how to make pulled pork sandwiches. I followed the recipe exactly and used Sweet Baby Ray's BBQ sauce. This will be a summertime staple in my house!

Basic Flaky Pie Crust

Reviewed: Apr. 14, 2009

Extremely crumbly and hard to work with. I used the suggestions from previous reviewers to avoid crumbling - but no success. Tasted good though, but not worth the effort.

Chocolate Chunk-Cinnamon Coffee Cake

Reviewed: Apr. 14, 2009

I loved this, and so did everyone at our Easter brunch. I made recipe exactly as-is, I just separated the chocolate and sugar mixtures like the other reviewers suggested. This cake is FILLING and makes a LOT so you can easily cut it in half for a medium/small sized crowd.

Neat Sloppy Joes

Chicken Pot Pie II

Reviewed: Mar. 23, 2009

I am in the minority I guess - this did not have enough "sauce" and was bland. Unfortunately I made a lot extra and froze it. So when I make this again from my frozen stash, I'll add something else to it - maybe a half can of cream of chicken soup (which was what I was trying to avoid in the first place with this healthy recipe) and some additional pepper. UPDATE: I added a whole can of cream of chicken soup and additional pepper and this recipe was MUCH better.

Burrito Pie

Reviewed: Feb. 25, 2009

I don't know why many reviewers changed this recipe so much. I made it exactly as instructed and it was delicious. I only substituted corn tortillas for the flour ones, and omitted black olives (we don't like them). I used lean versions of everything (97/3 ground beef, FF refried beans). Overall it is a good recipe - but plan to serve something light with it as a side - it is a bit heavy and filling.
