Scalloped Cabbage with Fennel and Cranberries

Reviewed: Dec. 2, 2009
So good! Didn't have a bulb of fennel, so I used 5 stalks of celery. Also used fresh cranberries and didn't have the cranberry juice, so I used extra broth (homemade turkey broth). The fennel seeds went great with this. I will make this again!

Reviewed: Feb. 13, 2008
I used beef instead of chicken and broccoli instead of peas and roasted bell peppers instead of pimentos and it came out good. Very versitile recipe to use what you have on hand! Thanks!

Famous Chicken Francaise

Reviewed: Jan. 21, 2008
This was ok! I was looking for more lemon flavor...maybe I should have used some lemon rind. It was tender chicken though. I used the leftovers to make soup.

Southwestern Egg Rolls

Reviewed: Jan. 9, 2008
I omitted the chicken and oil, adding more spinach. It was easy, I just mixed everything together and made triangles w/ wonton wrappers and baked. Much healthier.

Ed Zieba's Famous Family Pork Chops

Reviewed: Jan. 9, 2008
Easy and good. I put cabbage in the bottom of the dish and seasoned everything w/ garlic powder and paprika. I had to go to church and my husband didn't turn it down for the last 30 minutes, but it was still great!

Spicy African Yam Soup

Reviewed: Jan. 4, 2008
I changed this to our likings and what I had on hand and it came out great! I used 1/2 a yellow onion and about 1/2 cup chopped green onions, 3 heeping Tbsp of chopped garlic, one large and one small sweet potato, leftover black-eyed peas from New Year's Day w/ the seasonings and juice...about 2 cups, basil instead of thyme plus extra and extra cumin, 2 cubed smoked chicken breast, frozen broccoli and different peppers, and extra natural peanut butter. My husband loved this and kept saying how lucky he and my daughter are to have such a good cook in the house and that it was the most flavorful soup! Sooo goood!

Pasta Shells with Portobello Mushrooms and Asparagus in Boursin Sauce

Reviewed: Jan. 3, 2008
I used the light boursin and low sodium chicken broth (about 1/4cup less than what it called for, but I wish I had only put in about 1/2cup altogether) w/ baby portobello mushrooms, and whole wheat penne pasta. Even my mushroom hating daughter liked this dish.

Fresh Asparagus and Chicken Casserole

Reviewed: Dec. 13, 2007
I left out the oil (used Pam), added tons of seasonings (garlic powder, paprika, basil, and chopped garlic), left out the oregeno, subbed cr of chicken for chicken broth and used less sour cream, subbed lowfat mont jack for parm. My daughter and husband loved this dinner served w/ spinach salad.

Broccoli Beef II

Reviewed: Dec. 12, 2007
I cooked the meat in the crock pot in the marinade which made it turn out like roast, but I drained it and then made the marinade again (minus the Itailian dressing and using refridgerated ginger) and threw in lightly steamed broccoli and let it all mix together. My daughter loved it. My husband and I added sweet chili sauce and it was good. I didn't have noodles so I served it w/ brown rice.

Bacon and Tomato Cups

Reviewed: Dec. 11, 2007
I used thawed frozen biscuits and cut them in half. I think I should have peeled that part in half too because these puffed up too much and made it where there wasn't enough filling. Other than that, it tastes great!

Tasty Spinach Treats

Reviewed: Dec. 11, 2007
I put these in wonton wrappers, and I'm glad I did. I made other apps w/ bisuits and they were too big and not enough filling once they were cooked. I made these stuffed and in mini cups, both were good. I used monteray jack cheese. I couldn't taste the nutmeg, but maybe I didn't add enough (I never measure anything).

High Temperature Eye-of-Round Roast

Reviewed: Dec. 5, 2007
This is great...so easy! I would like my roast a little more pink. Mine came out medium-medium well. If anyone could say to do less cooking time or take it out of the oven sooner than 2 1/2 hours? I will be making this easy roast again!

Seafood Chowder

Reviewed: Nov. 20, 2007
This tastes rich, I feel guilty eating it. I subed green onions for sauted yellow and canned corn for frozen. I added white wine and more milk than called for and I only used shrimp. This is easy and good!

Orange Chocolate Breakfast Drink

Reviewed: Oct. 30, 2007
I like orange and chocolate together, but the pulp made this not so good. I am going to try this w/ canned mandrin oranges in their own juice...I think that would be wonderful!

Chicken Enchilada Soup III

Reviewed: Oct. 25, 2007
I cut this recipe in half, but used almost a pound of chicken. Instead of baking the chicken, I boiled it in very low sodium chicken broth and a few tablespoon of salsa. After taking out the chicken, I used that broth in the recipe. I used way less cheese than called for, and it was low fat...this cuts way down on the fat and calories...And it was still great! Definately use low sodium chicken broth b/c this was still a salty dish.

Buffalo Chicken Fingers

Reviewed: Oct. 25, 2007
I replaced the egg w/ hot wing sauce. I tried the egg, but it just made the hot sauce come off and the flour mixture was getting wet enough. I used Panko bread crumbs. I just made a small batch for myself, and plan on having the leftovers over a spinach salad for lunch today. I think my family will love this recipe too! I've been craving hot wings, and this is definately on my diet!

Savory Sausage, Cheese and Oat Muffins

Reviewed: Oct. 24, 2007
I changed these to whole wheat muffins, but I left out the seasoning (it didn't sound appetizing for breakfast). I subbed lowfat mexican blend shredded chz instead of the parm and increased the amount of cheese, but I couldn't even taste it. I would leave out the cheese and add in a can of green chilies or something.

Black Bottom Cupcakes I

Reviewed: Oct. 24, 2007
I used a short cut and made the cupcake part from a devil's food cake mix (but made w/ 4 eggs, 1 cup sour milk, and 1/4 cup oil...I always do this w/ boxed cake mix). I used powder sugar instead of white (what I had on hand). This made 18 regular size muffins and 24 mini muffins and I had plenty of cream cheese to go on all of these. Everyone enjoyed these!
