Best Bread Machine Bread

Reviewed: Apr. 17, 2007

This was a very good bread - a little on the sweeter side, but only midly so. Had a nice texture.

Slow Cooker Maple Country Style Ribs

Reviewed: Apr. 11, 2007

I can't currently have tomatoes so I was really excited about this recipe but I really didn't care for the flavor. I used real maple syrup, marinated the meat and doubled the sauce as others had suggested.

Cafeteria Carrot Souffle

Reviewed: Apr. 11, 2007

Really good! My husband actually made this and he left the carrot pieces a little too large, but other than that it was prefect! I ate it with every other meal until it was all gone.

Apple Butter Pork Loin

Reviewed: Apr. 11, 2007

Good flavor but didn't permeate the meat as much as I would have liked.

Ham and Pineapple Kabobs

Reviewed: Apr. 11, 2007

These are AWESOME!!! I marinate mine for a couple hours first and it makes a lot of difference. Use good ham - tried once with so-so ham and wasn't nearly as tasty! Thanks for the recipe!!!

Bill's Beefuna Burgers

Reviewed: Apr. 11, 2007

I made these because of the unusal ingredient mix. These were good but not the most exceptional burgers I have had. Admittedly, they tasted a lot better than they sounded when I read the ingredients. Very moist. I could still taste the tuna (but probably because I knew it was in there more than anything). I will make these again so my dad can try them - they seem like something he would really enjoy them.

Monte Cristo Sandwich - the Real One

Reviewed: Oct. 4, 2006

If these hadn't made such a mess cooking them I would have given this 5 stars. I LOVED these. Never had a Monte Cristo before, but was intrigued by it. Way to fatty to have very often, but what a decadent treat! Only changes was to use multi-gran bread (it's what we keep on hand) and to double the batter (had some left over - might try only doing 1/2 again as much next time). We dipped in seedless raspberry preserves.

Ham Chowder

Reviewed: Oct. 4, 2006

This makes a LOT of chowder, that usually works for my large family, but I cut this back (and still had leftovers). I took others' suggestions and cut the total rosemary in half. We also left out 1/2 the bacon, 1 onion, 1/2 the carrots and all the green onion. I added black pepper and a little paprika then served with cheese sprinkled on top. My kids didn't wat it at all and my husband thought the leeks too over powering (he'd give it a two), but I thought it had great flavor overall (I'd give it a four). Even better served over crumbled corn bread.

Marcia's Famous Sticky Buns

Reviewed: Oct. 4, 2006

Loved the idea of these being so easy - but they turned out dry and powdery for me. I made it two times becuase I thought I might have done something wrong since everyone else was raving. Will try making again but increase butter so all the different powders have enough to liquify - think would defiantely be 5 stars then.

Chipotle Shrimp & Pineapple Kabobs

Reviewed: Jun. 28, 2006

Only change I made was to marinate the shrimp for a little longer. Very good - the mayo/sour cream sauce makes it even better. Only moderately spicy. My kids didn't care for the flavor, but the adults voted it a definte keeper.

Mexican Mole Sauce

Reviewed: May 19, 2006

Threw together quickly and was pretty tasty - only change was fresh garlic as that is what I keep on hand. I deboned a rotissere chicken and simmered in sauce as someone else suggested. Will make again and try adding jalepenos and cilantro as others suggested.
