Easy Turkey Gravy

Reviewed: Dec. 14, 2009
This was the best gravy I have had in a LONG LONG time. I am not a fan of the "giblet gravy" my family makes so this time I tried this and it was awesome. We made Thanksgiving dinner for my husband's employees who had to work that day so I doubled the recipe and it was way too much. The original amount was more than enough for my family of 4 and 4-8 employees. Oh and instead of the turkey stock we used the remaining juices from the Turkey after we pulled it out of the oven and I think it truly was the key to making it so good.

I have made these type of mashed potatoes before but never really measured anything, so this time I thought I would try and it turned out excellent!

Libby's® Pumpkin Roll with Cream Cheese Filling

Reviewed: Dec. 14, 2009
My first attempt at this was a huge success. I did add a little more cinnamon (using 2tsp) and nutmeg (using 1/2 tsp) though. I cooked this on a jelly roll pan lined with wax/parafin paper. I inverted immediately onto a new piece of wax paper and covered it with an additional piece of wax paper. I rolled it up within about 5 minutes of it coming out of the oven. I let it cool for at least 30 minutes before putting the filling on it. For the filling, I let the electric mixer whip it up for a while for a more creamy texture. I did not use all of the filling as I found it to be too much. Rolled it back up in wax paper tightly and stored in the fridge for a few hours before sprinkling with powdered sugar (did not put the powdered sugar on the wax paper as it says). This was so much easier than I expected it to be and will definitely be making it again for Christmas!

Cheeseburger Meatloaf

Reviewed: Nov. 10, 2009
Excellent! Even my 3 and 5 year old picky kids wanted seconds. I made a few changes though combining this recipe and one I was given from a relative. I mixed 1/2 cup ketchup, the eggs, seasoned bread crumbs, 1/4 cup minced onion, some onion salt and pepper together before adding the ground beef. I sprayed foil with non-stick spray and flattened the meat out over it. I spread 1/4-1/2 cup ketchup over the meat and I did not have shredded cheese so I used 4 slices of American and placed it over the meat. I used the foil to help roll the meat up (rolling from the long side). I then transferred the roll and the foil to a jelly roll pan (easier cleanup!). After cooking for 50-60 minutes I used 3 more slices of cheese (cut diagonally) and layed them on top and put it back in the oven for 5-7 more minutes. (The American cheese part was from the other recipe I had. I would like to try the shredded cheese part but I really liked the American Cheese melted on top. Gave a nice presentation and tasted great!)

Slow Cooker Beef Stroganoff I

Reviewed: Sep. 20, 2009
Had a good taste, but I am not fond of mushrooms (I can handle the tiny ones in cream of mushroom and I like the flavor of the soups, just not the big sized mushrooms). I substituted beef broth for the water and added about 1/3 packet of onion soup mix. I like my stroganoff to be more runny, I guess gravy-like, so I would add more beef broth.

Monkey Bread I

The concept behind putting the pieces in the sugar mixture makes it all the better! Not my favorite type of breakfast, but it was still good regardless.

Sloppy Joe Sandwiches

Reviewed: Sep. 15, 2009
These were pretty good.....perfect on a night that you have ground beef and no clue what to do with it! We left out the mustard because we are not fans of it, but later put it in because I guess the point of it is to counteract the sweetness of it all so luckily we couldn't takste it! (Oh and we put in less than the full amount of mustard).

Followed the directions exactly (well, I halved it) and it was AMAZING! Enough said! (Oh and yes, you must use Mountain Dew and not Sprite or anything else like that).

If you LOVE LOVE Soy sauce and tons of Garlic then this is for you. It was not absolutely terrible but I wouldnt eat it again. Felt like I was at a chinese restaurant but without the rice and vegetables.

Creamy Chicken on Linguine

This was okay to eat, but not worthy to make again. It was very time consuming and it was extremely runny.

Florida Strawberry Muffins

Reviewed: Jun. 2, 2009
My boys and my husband really liked these....I have had two and still haven't decided what I think. I used cinnamon in place of the nutmeg, 1/2 cup brown sugar in place of the 1/4 white cup when mixed with the butter and I am not a fan of chunks in my muffins so I pureed my strawberries but am thinking next time I will go with the chunks due to it didn't provide a very pretty appearance. I also used a container of frozen strawberries (but thawed them in the fridge the night before). I microwaved the sugar and strawberries for 25 seconds instead of waiting an hour. Overall it was an easy recipe and my goal was met by providing muffins for my boys as an alternative to the sugar filled poptarts and cereal!

Slider-Style Mini Burgers

Reviewed: May 27, 2009
Excellent recipe! I did not put them on a pan, rather just wrapped in the foil and straight in the oven. I was a little skeptical at first thinking the buns would get soggy and they did not. I used the Beefy Onion soup mix and it gave excellent flavor. I didn't use mayo or pickles, as most of my family doesn't like them. I halved the recipe and the one cup cheese was not enough so I would definitely use more next time. I used the buttery top King's Hawaiian rolls and they were a HUGE hit! Even my 5 year old ate 3 of them and he usually is not a fan of hamburgers or anything like it! Thanks for the recipe!

Slow Cooker Chicken and Dumplings

Reviewed: Mar. 15, 2009
I'm going to give this 5 stars because it is an excellent recipe, I just changed a little to make it better. First I used frozen chicken breast and cooked it on high for about 8 hours. Instead of water I used chicken broth (water is fine, but the broth adds more flavor) and you definitely need some sort of seasoning on the chicken. I only used one can of biscuits and tore them into quarters and that was plenty. I cooked them for the last 45 minutes of it all. My picky kids even loved this recipe!

Chicken Stuffed Shells

Reviewed: Feb. 22, 2009
Giving this 4 stars because I had to make some changes due to some bland flavors in here. Once I made the changes it was a HUGE hit and we all loved it. I added mozzarella cheese to the chicken and stuffing mix and instead of the canned soups I poured alfredo sauce over it all. This recipe made so much though that I was able to put half in the freezer for another night. Only downside to that was I guess it needed to thaw before putting back in the oven because I had to cook it long enough to warm it all and so some of the bottom of the shells got hard the second time, but other than that, it was excellent the second time as well.

Cordon Bleu Chicken Rolls

Reviewed: Feb. 22, 2009
This is such an awesome dish. Although I have never tried the sauce for it (always missing one ingredient or another!) I would like to one of these days. I didn't change a thing on this recipe other than omitting the sauce.

Hamburger Hash Browns

Reviewed: Jan. 18, 2009
My favorite part of this dish is how simple it is. Although I have to say it was extremely greasy but it was still good. I didn't have the fried onions, but it still turned out good without it. I also used a can of green beans in place of the frozen vegetables. If you are up for something quick and easy though, this is the dish to pick!

Baked Slow Cooker Chicken

Reviewed: Jan. 14, 2009
This recipe turned out awesome! Only reason I am giving it a 4 is because I suggest more seasoning. I put chicken seasoning, paprika, salt and pepper on mine and I like mine more seasoned than that, but it wasn't bad. I was a little skeptical at first of not putting any liquid into the slow cooker, but I ran with it and am so glad I did. I know some people said they didn't get the crispy skin....well I did. Not sure what I did differently, but I didn't open it for about 10 hours and just let it do its job. Great recipe!
