This is an OMG recipe!!! Excellent and delicious. I used non fat yogurt...lower in calories. That's almost a joke when making this recipe, but any calories you can save is worth it! This is absolutely delicious! It's my favorite chocolate icing now! No need to alter a thing. Just enjoy it!

Fudge Brownies I

Reviewed: May 29, 2011

I wouldn't say these were OMG brownies. They were o.k.....maybe because I took the advice of others. I am an experienced cook and baker and I don't totally agree with the other reviews. By eliminating 2 of the eggs, I felt they were dry and crumbly, and I even took them out earlier that suggested. I did add aditional cocoa, which I am glad I did, and I now add white raisins because it does make brownies slightly moister. No one knows they are inside, but they just always say that I make the best brownies! And I never tell my secret (something I learned from a caterer! I would use at least 3 eggs and maybe even the fourth if you want them more moist vs crumbly. I did use the sour cream chocolate frosting with plain yogurt vs sour cream from Allrecipes, and it was the icing on the cake! It actually made the brownies O.K.

Chili Rubbed Pork Tenderloin With Apricot Ginger Glaze

Reviewed: Apr. 12, 2011

I agree with everyone else's rating! A WINNER! So easy. I had the sauce made in advance, cooked it on the barbecue. Timing was perfect. If you are a beginner, it is so simple and very impressive dinner! I served it with cole slaw, asparagus, and mashed potatoes. Company was impressed!

Warm Greek Pita Sandwiches With Turkey and Cucumber-Yogurt Sauce

Reviewed: Dec. 26, 2010

Good idea, but my turkey came out really dry. I probably won't make it again...

Turkey in a Smoker

Reviewed: Dec. 26, 2010

Wow! This was excellent, so nice and smokey, but incredibly flavorful and moist! Here goes with my only change, though. We like turkey smokey, but not tooooo smokey, so we smoked it for 4 hours and put it in the oven at 300 to finish the cooking process until the thermometer reached 160.

Zesty Tilapia with Mushrooms

Reviewed: Jul. 30, 2010

Outstanding! EASY and I thought it was a really nice presentation and would use it for company! I served it with 4 spears of Asparagus across the top of the fish and some rice or potato and you've got an amazingly delicious and easy dinner that everyone will love (as long as they eat mushrooms)!

Parmesan Chicken

Reviewed: Jul. 30, 2010

5 stars because it was easy and in addition it was delious! Thumbs up from 5 of us! Miracle! I did make a creamy spinach sauce to put on top, but it didn't need it unless you were having company. If you are looking for an easy family dinner that even the kids will love, this is it! I am not saying this is a company dinner, though!

Angel Pie

Reviewed: Jan. 31, 2010

REally easy and delicious! I didn't need all the calories and cholesterol, so I used a small container of LITE Cool Whip in place of the whipped cream. It was perfect! In addition, I used two whole eggs and one extra egg white and 3/4 sugar and 1/4 Splenda to make the lemon filling. I probably added a little more lemon because we have an over productive lemon tree and we love anything lemon. I then put the other half of the cool whip on the top decoratively with a spatula, and Voila! A genuine winner! I ended up having to print 2 more recipes to give to our guests!

Mediterranean Stuffed Swordfish

Reviewed: Dec. 21, 2009

From a Non "fish" person, we all loved it. I did what everybody recommended and put the Feta with the veggies. I didn't have spinach in my garden.I used Fresh chard from my garden and then even added some sundried tomatoes to the sauce along with chopped mushrooms, all cooked together. With the leftover, I served it in a dish to put on top of fish. I am in shock that the whole family LOVED it! Thanks for a great recipe!

Baked Halibut Steaks

Reviewed: Jun. 10, 2009

I agree with everyone that this was great. I followed the recommendation of marinading the Halibut in Italian dressing...didn't have any and used Caesar dressing! Excellent. Then I did use the zucchini and followed the recipe, but when I added the tomatoes and fresh basil, I also added some greek olives. My husband said it was "restaurant" quality!

Sesame Pasta Chicken Salad

Reviewed: Jun. 8, 2009

I just don't get all the rave reviews! I consider myself a good, creative cook, but this was boring if you followed the recipe! Everyone had to make changes to make it "good"! I liked the concept and will fiddle with it myself, but as is, I'd say mediocre at best. Sorry!

Strawberry Spinach Salad I

Reviewed: May 24, 2009

Easy, delicious and I understand the high review marks. I did what everybody else suggested and added some iceberg, part of a roasted Costco chicken that I cut into pieces, and didn't use all the dressing. Plus, I added the Feta cheese like other people had suggested. It's a Yummmmmmmmmmm recipe!

Dijon Crusted Halibut

Reviewed: Mar. 19, 2009

Excelllent and easy! My favorite way of cooking! I didn't even add salt as I thought there was enough in the parmesan. There is a little time in preparation and remember, just put the toppping on the top of the fist..

Barbecue Ribs

Reviewed: Mar. 17, 2009

Great easy recipe! We did not put them on the grill for the second cooking, but we cooked them in a jelly roll pan with tin foil underneath the ribs at 350 for like 30 minutes and they were tender, and absolutey wonderful! I have to send my friend the recipe right now!

Orange Drop Cookies II

Reviewed: Dec. 14, 2008

I have been baking alot for the holidays, searching for a new recipe to give...This one will not be on my list next year! I should have listened to the other people. I did add extra OJ to the icing, and to the batter, but neither had an orange flavor. I added a little extra flour so that they wouldn't flatten out. They were just an O.K. cookie. Not one to add to my personal cookie file!

Candy Cane Chocolate Chunk Cookies

Reviewed: Dec. 14, 2008

I used the sil pad so that I wouldn't have sticking. I did add more sugar and it was a pain to chop the candy cane and I guess all and all, I would say these cookies were not worth the effort. if they were wonderful, I would make them again, but I am deleting this from my personal recipe box

Simple White Cake

Reviewed: Jul. 4, 2008

SOOOOO easy, yet SOOOOOO Good! If you want it a little thicker, use an 8" cake pan. I didn't change a thing! No need to! I used it for 4th of July. I put a white frosting on it, blueberries in the left corner for the Stars and red rasberries crosswise for the stripes. Adorable, and delish!

Cinnamon Swirl Bundt Coffee Cake

Reviewed: May 19, 2008

I thought this was average at best. I definitely would not make it again. I thought I wanted a change from my Mom's bundt cake, but this surely didn't do it. It was dense, heavy, and small, like maybe they should have put in 1 tbs of baking powder. It was a tiny, short bundt cake.
