Caramel Popcorn

Reviewed: Dec. 16, 2008

Never a morsel left when I bring this to get togethers. I use the salted popcorn, but without butter. The salt mixes with the sweet of the carmel perfectly. Friends can't get enough!

Portuguese Custard Tarts - Pasteis de Nata

Reviewed: Dec. 16, 2008

I went to Portugal a few years ago. I find myself craving these once in a while now. Nothing can beat the pasteis in Belem...but these do the trick for my cravings! Very easy recipe. The hardest part is shaping the pastry into cups. I will definitely be making these again! But I think I am going to try a homemade crust next time.

Guacamole

Reviewed: Dec. 16, 2008

Always a hit at parties! I do buy an extra lime and squeeze it over the top and mix it in RIGHT before serving. Tastes nice and fresh. Thanks for the great recipe!

Cream Cheese Sugar Cookies

Reviewed: Dec. 16, 2008

I was looking for a recipe for my Cookie Press for Christmas, and these turned out just perfect! I DID NOT refrigerate the dough at all, and it was the perfect consistency to be pushed through the press. I added some green food coloring and made some trees and wreaths. I will be saving this one!

African Chicken Stew

Reviewed: Dec. 16, 2008

Pretty good. Tried this to have something different. It is one of those things you can only eat once in a blue moon. I had A LOT of leftovers. I even froze a whole extra 2 meal-sized bags, after dinner was finished! I did eat the leftovers I put in the fridge the next day, and it seemed to have a better taste. I think the spices had more time to blend. I will try this again...but maybe make it the night before.

Meringue II

Reviewed: Dec. 16, 2008

No beading up! Turned out nice and toasty brown! I only had one problem...the Meringue pulled away from the crust, even though I sealed the edges well. I will definitely be using this recipe again. Hopefully this won't happen next time. I got many compliments on the taste. Thank!

Chocolate Chip Banana Muffins

Reviewed: Dec. 16, 2008

Very good muffin recipe! I topped mine off with chopped walnuts before baking them. Turned out perfect. I did not have vanilla yogurt in my house, so I actually used the Yoplait Banana Cream Pie flavor. Turned out great!

Broiled Tilapia Parmesan

Reviewed: Dec. 16, 2008

Amazing recipe! My boyfriend and I both loved it. We are always looking for new recipes for Tilapia. We both really likes the way the sauce crusted up. Will definitely be using this again! Thanks!

Chocolate Pretzel Rings

Reviewed: Dec. 16, 2008

Perfect for topping off the Christmas cookie boxes! I used Peanut Butter M&M's instead of original. All of my favorite things on one little pretzel...salt, chocolate, peanut butter! I also used Hershey HUG's on half of them for those white chocolate lovers!

Pecan Tassies

Reviewed: Dec. 16, 2008

Definitely time consuming...but the outcome is DELICIOUS! And I don't even like pecan pie all that much. Be sure to press the dough really thin in the mini muffin pan. The thinner the crust...the better! I could actually see the color of the pan n some spots through the dough. I then baked the pastry for 5 minutes with no filling. I removed them, filled them almost to the top, and baked them another 15 minutes. They came out great! Use a knife to remove them from the muffin pan. If there is a little filling that baked to the pan, be sure to loosen this before trying to scoop out the whole tart. I will be making these again! Oh and I added a drop of almond extract to the crust for a little more taste. MM mm mmmmm!

Walnut-Filled Pillows

Reviewed: Dec. 16, 2008

Okay taste. Definitely not worth the effort. If you decide to attempt this...be sure to seal the edges very well and be careful not to overfill. The process is more stressful than it's worth.

Chicken Piccata II

Reviewed: Jun. 11, 2008

I serve this over white rice. I always double the sauce. The flavor of the sauce over rice is great!

I am always looking for a new way to cook sprouts! I have used this recipe more than once. I use regular bacon. And it turns out great. Definitely a keeper!

Southwestern Cinnamon Steak Rub

Reviewed: Apr. 30, 2008

This was excellent! I used 1 tsp. ground cumin instead of the seeds (because I didn't have them). Otherwise, I followed the recipe exactly. I broiled the steaks and they smelled great cooking! My boyfriend, who can be picky, was amazed with the taste! This is definitely a keeper! Thank you!
