Famous Butter Chicken

Reviewed: Nov. 20, 2009

Great taste! Used only about a 1/4 cup of butter, if it was even that ... I wouldn't go less than that or else it turns out dry. Loved the crunchy crust; better than fried, in my opinion! Thanks! :)

Grilled Lamb with Brown Sugar Glaze

Reviewed: Nov. 5, 2009

I didn't have any lamb, so I used the rub for chicken breasts. Mmmmm! Thanks!

It was okay. Didn't really taste like a traditional cobbler - the "crust" was more like cake sitting on the apples. Also rather dry. The pecans tasted great, and if you had it with vanilla ice cream it was overall a good dessert, but not exactly what I was looking for.

Cheesy Ranch New Red Potatoes

Reviewed: Oct. 2, 2009

Not bad. Maybe cut them into smaller slices; give it better flavor. Also didn't use all that ranch as it seemed a bit excessive.

Spaghetti Sauce III

Reviewed: Oct. 2, 2009

Not impressed. Tasted like plain old tomato sauce with some oregano.

Roast Sticky Chicken-Rotisserie Style

Reviewed: Sep. 25, 2009

This was DELICIOUS. The spices were perfect (a little kick!), and the chicken was fall-off-the-bone tender! I followed the directions exactly: marinated it overnight, then started the chicken in the oven when I went home for my lunch break. I used the drippings to make a yummy chicken gravy over mashed potatoes and mixed vegetables...wonderful!!! This is the best roast chicken I have ever tasted; I think it's even better than rotisserie you buy at the grocer's! Will DEFINITELY be making this recipe again!

Pepper-Honey Cedar Plank Salmon

Reviewed: Sep. 25, 2009

Good recipe! I didn't have cedar planks, so I used the sauce for my salmon. Unfortunately I let the sauce boil too long and it had a molasses-like consistency. After cooking the salmon for a while with the sauce, it tasted a little too peppery to my liking, so I sprinkled extra brown sugar into the sauce and pressed it into the salmon with a spoon. Delicious!

Awesome Honey Pecan Pork Chops

Reviewed: Apr. 16, 2009

Really good! Loved the simple flavor of honey and pecans; with pork you don't want to overpower it with spices. Yummy!

Grandma's Lemon Meringue Pie

Reviewed: Mar. 15, 2009

EXCELLENT lemon meringue pie! Tasted delicious! Only changes I made: substituted milk for water as recommended by other reviews, and did not add lemon zest as I'm not a big fan. Added meringue to cook after pie had cooled, which unfortunately contributed to the pie being very weepy, but next time I'll try the "hot filling" method. Thanks for an excellent recipe!

Slow Cooker Stuffing

Reviewed: Jan. 29, 2009

Skip the slow cooker part: I made the mistake of being out of the house while it was in the cooker, and when I came home it was BURNT. Horrible. I'm sure it would have tasted fine had it not been cooked to a crisp. Don't make my mistake!

Mini Cheesecakes III

Reviewed: Jan. 29, 2009

These were delicious and simple! I used chopped ham, but I think sliced ham would work better. Still turned out awesome! The drizzle on top of the sandwiches made the recipe. Took this to a Christmas party and everyone asked me for the recipe!

White Chocolate Raspberry Cheesecake

Reviewed: Jan. 29, 2009

Sooooo good! It's definitely better after you've had one "experimental" try with the recipe. Took this to a Christmas party and had RAVE reviews!

Blackened Salmon Fillets

Reviewed: Oct. 15, 2008

Too spicy. And whatever is in the spices really gets in the air when you're cooking it: my husband and I could not stop coughing anytime we went in the kitchen! And I had the vent going full-blast! No thanks.

Sirloin Steak with Garlic Butter

Reviewed: Oct. 15, 2008

Bland. Okay if you don't want much flavoring to your steak (or if you have a very tender cut of steak).

Baked Pineapple

Reviewed: Oct. 15, 2008

This was very interesting, but not bad at all! I think it tasted more like a dessert than a side: just add a little whipped cream. I would use less butter crackers, though.

Sugar Snap Peas

Reviewed: Oct. 15, 2008

I don't really like sugar snap peas, so this recipe was a good way to disguise the taste of them in order to get rid of the bag that was sitting in my freezer. Good flavoring.
