Washington State Apple Pie

Reviewed: Nov. 27, 2009
This was really really excellent. I used Never, Never Fail Pie Pastry from this site for the crust. I cooked the apples and then refrigerated them overnight, the next day I tossed with the seasonings, brushed egg white over my pastry, and put in the oven. Came out so perfect! Bottom crust was perfect, top crust not overdone, and the syrup in the filling (while a little thin) had so much great flavor. Making this one again!

Pumpkin Pie Spice II

Reviewed: Nov. 25, 2009
Thanks for a great recipe! To make it easier, I scaled the recipe to 8 servings and measured everything onto a folded sheet of clean paper; then you can just dump the pile into your spice jar, no mess! Shake and Bake!

Daria's Slow Cooker Beef Stroganoff

Reviewed: Nov. 24, 2009
This was amazing! I did not have any wine so left it out; I'm sure that makes it even better :) I didn't realize someone had opened the sour cream until it was time to stir it in; I had half a container, so I added a little cream cheese to make it up. I forgot the parsley at the end too, but man this stuff is addicting!

Tarragon-Turkey Soup

Reviewed: Nov. 24, 2009
This was great! I halved the recipe but used the full pound of meat to please my other half. I only had regular barley, so I precooked it and added it at the end. I did let it simmer a bit longer than the recipe states, to give my bread time to finish baking. Thanks for a great recipe!

Irish Brown Soda Bread

Reviewed: Nov. 24, 2009
This bread is good for what it is. Not a ton of flavor, but it soaked up my salty soup very well! I scaled the recipe to 3 servings to make 1 loaf. I flattened it to about an inch before cooking, which seemed to work great. I also drizzled it with a tablespoon or so of melted butter before baking, and brushed another tablespoon on halfway through.

Slow Cooker Clam Chowder

Reviewed: Nov. 23, 2009
This is great! I've never made Clam Chowder before, but after reading the reviews decided to try this with a few additions. I did use two cans of clams, and I'm glad I did; even with that they seemed a little thin on the ground. I used 4 potatoes, which seemed just about right; I used 2 onions, rather than measure a cup. My crockpot cooks pretty hot, so I added the milk when I added the clams; after 4 hours on high. The milk and clams got about 20 minutes on high, 20 minutes on low, then we ate. Yum yum yum! One suggestion for a side; Garlic Cheese Quick Bread, from this site. I made this for my birthday dinner and was not disappointed! Thanks for a great recipe!

Empanadas

Reviewed: Nov. 19, 2009
Pretty good, the dough was easy to work with and came out nice and flaky. Was a bit messy afterwards only because a lot of my filling leaked out during baking.

Spiced Squash Rings

Reviewed: Nov. 15, 2009
i had a lot of extra egg; I think 1 would have been plenty. Also had extra cornmeal mix, but maybe my squash were small :) Smell while baking was great, and the taste was very good. I like sweet baked 'traditional' squash but the flavor only sticks to the outside; this way, each bite had lots of flavor.

Herman Coffee Cake

Reviewed: Nov. 15, 2009
I cut the recipe in half, and it didn't look like enough batter for 2 square pans. I put it all in one square pan but then had to cook for double the stated time, so maybe I should have done 2 :) I left out all the nuts due to an allergy in the household. For sourdough starter I used some of my Amish Friendship Starter, which has more sugar than regular sourdough. Since I used a sweeter starter I did not use the optional honey. Out of the bowl, the glaze was nothing special, but when I sat down and had a piece of this coffee cake everything went together and it tasted wonderful!

Slow Cooker Swiss Steak

Reviewed: Nov. 15, 2009
This stuff is great! I did eliminate all the precooking and added some flour during the last couple hours of cooking to thicken the sauce a bit. I only had one can of regular tomatoes, so I used that and a can of tomatoes with roasted garlic flavor. Also, I was low on time so I did 2 hours on high and then left it on low until suppertime. Served it up over mashed potatoes and my boyfriend and my 6 year old liked it :) Makes good s.o.s. as leftovers too.

Fabulous Homemade Bread

Reviewed: Nov. 9, 2009
Love the flavor! I cut it down to 24 servings, which would be 2 loaves, and used one loaf to make turnovers filled with leftover pork. Baked up the other loaf as stated, turned out great but needed a bit more time in the oven than stated. I brushed with melted butter before baking. Oh, and my whole wheat flour was organic whole wheat pastry flour, which has a nicer texture. Awesome easy bread, and I love that you don't have to knead it :)

Mexican Lasagna II

Reviewed: Oct. 30, 2009
Extremely simple but soooo yummy. I only had mozzarella cheese, and I had to add some fresh cilantro on top when all was said and done! Served it up with lime wedges, lettuce and salsa verde.

Hoot Owl Cookies

Reviewed: Oct. 29, 2009
These are super tasty! And, beyond adorable. I wanted to make some nut-free, so I pressed a candy corn into the cookies right when they came out of the oven for beaks. Also, for some I pressed a black m&m over the chocolate chip eyes while still warm from the oven. Lots of fun things you can do with these, I can't wait to show everyone how cute they are!

Thai Chicken with Basil Stir Fry

Reviewed: Oct. 28, 2009
Delicious! I made three changes; sesame oil instead of olive oil, portabello mushrooms instead of shiitake and rice sticks instead of jasmine rice. We both enjoyed this dish and I wish I had made more! Thanks for a great recipe that I will use again :)

Basil Tomato Rolls

Reviewed: Oct. 25, 2009
These were a huge hit with the men in my life! I followed the recipe exactly and had wonderful results. At one point my boyfriend came into the kitchen and had to taste the pan of filling...he wouldn't shut up about how good it was and I had to chase him away with a spoon, he wants me to make the filling and put it on spaghetti and pizza too. But, he ate about 6 of these rolls himself, and my 6-year-old son had 2. So I guess I will be making them again and often! Thanks for a wonderful recipe!

Pineapple Pie V

Reviewed: Oct. 24, 2009
Great flavor! It took some time to get the egg yolks into the dry ingredients, but after that everything went off without a hitch! I put whipped cream on top which made just the right amount of sweet; next time I want to try a crumb crust :)

Chicken Alfredo Pizza

Reviewed: Oct. 16, 2009
Amazing. Only made one change; out of thyme, subbed marjoram. Too many people trying to change this recipe; using all the store bought stuff makes it a whole different pizza. Definitely worth the extra effort!
