Pork Chops in Red Sauce

Reviewed: Oct. 26, 2009

This was very good! Didn't knock my socks off, which is why it fell short of a 5, but with just minimal tweaking, I think it could be! Thank you for the recipe!

Loved it! I went with the suggestions of a few reviewers to cook the pasta first, and I used diced tomatoes and some tomato sauce instead of the stewed tomatoes. I also used cumin instead of chili powder. All in all, it was a wonderful dinner. . .all my changes didn't change the fact that it was a good, solid recipe to begin with. It was plenty to go around, with leftovers, which is a huge thing for our family! Thanks for a great recipe! :D

Cheesiest Potato Soup

Reviewed: Oct. 20, 2009

THis was very yum! I used small white potatoes, and rather than pureeing it completely, I used a hand-smasher and took turns with my son mashing up a bunch of the potato. It was nice and think, but not too much so. I also used a whole 2 cups of cheese. . .tasted great!!! Thank you!

Southwest Chicken

Reviewed: Oct. 20, 2009

This was fabulous! This was a great cheese-free recipe! I only had plain diced tomatoes, so I added a whole can of diced green chilies to the mix. The whole thing balanced out so beautifully! Awesome recipe!

Balsamic Vinaigrette

Reviewed: Oct. 11, 2009

It was really good! Would have been better with garlic (I was out) but it was perfectly serviceable as it was! I made it in my little 3-cup chopper, so it was well-emulsified, too!

Pineapple Chicken Tenders

Reviewed: May 27, 2009

My kids loved it! It was almost a homemade teriyaki sauce. . . I cooked it stovetop, in my big frying pan, and poured most of teh sauce in the pan with the chicken. Came out super-flavorful. Definite repeat, as my kids would say!

My Chicken Milano

Reviewed: Nov. 7, 2008

WOW! I wasn't sure what to expect of this recipe, but it turned out fabulous! I didn't have whole breast of chicken, so I used tenders, and a big can of diced tomatoes rather than stewed, but otherwise I followed it to the letter, and it was amazing! I just ate the leftovers for lunch, and even reheated, it's great! The chicken was nice and tender, not dry at all, and the sauce wasn't too tomatoey. Even my 11 year old, who really doesn't care for green beans, loved this! My husband and boys cleaned their plates. And when I asked if it was a repeat, I got a unanimous "YES!" from everyone!

Easy Beef Stroganoff

Reviewed: Jul. 23, 2008

Ok, my family and I loved this. Instead of just onions, I used a frozen Mirepoix veggie mix (onion, celery and carrot), and otherwise I followed directions exactly, and it was really great! My middle son loves (and I mean LOVES) mushrooms, so anything like that will be a hit. :) Thank you!

Pineapple Cheese Casserole

Reviewed: Jun. 16, 2008

This is the hugest hit at pot-lucks! I actually got this recipe a few years ago, and it was really wonderful! I got it from Paula Deen, but it's been around for a long time!

Chicken Breasts with Balsamic Vinegar and Garlic

Reviewed: Jun. 11, 2008

YUM! My whole family loved it! Even my 2-year-old ate it really well! Just a lovely flavor, not too strong, the chicken brother mellowed the vinegar nicely without losing the flavor. Will make again!

Spinach Apple Salad

Reviewed: Jun. 11, 2008

It ended up being eaten by the kids at the cook-out we went to, because all the adults had some kind of issue with spinach. . .but the kids LOVED it! :D
