After-Thanksgiving Turkey Soup

Reviewed: Nov. 29, 2009
This is my second year of making this soup. It seems to be a family favorite after the holiday. In fact, I think my husband looks forward to it as much as the original roasted turkey! We use homemade noodles instead of rice, but it's just a preference. Delicious.

Slow Cooker Barbecue Ribs

Reviewed: Nov. 2, 2009
I have been messing with ribs recipes for years -- looking for the perfect recipe. I especially need one for the winter -- when grilling outside is not my thing, but I am still hungry for ribs. This one turned out perfectly AND it was SO easy. I prepped the ribs in the morning and put them in the crockpot; by the time we were home for dinner the house smelled great (even my kids commented) and the ribs were fall-off-the-bone perfect! I did use my own rib sauce instead of the recipe's sauce, but that was the only change I made. Thanks for sharing a fantastic way to prepare ribs (I may even incorporate in the summer with the gilling).

Annie's Fruit Salsa and Cinnamon Chips

Reviewed: Sep. 8, 2009
Made this for a tailgate party. Got many requests for the recipe. Hardly any left. Served with cinnamon sugar pita chips I bought at the store. Did not add sugar. As with others, the sweetness of the fruit, preserves, and chip seemed just fine. A keeper. Thanks for sharing!

Peanut Butter Apple Dip

Reviewed: Sep. 8, 2009
Ymmmmm! Easy to make (I cut ingredients down to 1/4 suggested portions for an after school snack portion.) Served with apples, but will try with lots of other things next time. Will go into my cookbook, and am looking forward to making it again.

Thick Cut-Outs

Reviewed: Aug. 27, 2009
I have been looking a long time for the perfect "bakery" sugar cookie recipe. This is it. All others will be thrown away. I did double vanilla, and added about 1/4 tsp. lemon extract. Otherwise, just a PERFECT sugar cookie. Thank for sharing.

Half and Halfs

Reviewed: Aug. 23, 2009
I am a purest. Toll House Chocolate Chip Cookies are my one and only. However, during a moment of daring, I did try this recipe. I am in LOVE! What a terrific cookie. This will be a standby for bake sales, tailgate parties, and school lunches. It is now on my top 5 cookie recipe lists. Thanks for sharing a great cookie recipe. I did adjust my oven temperature, orginally to 350 degrees, but had to up it to 375 degrees to prevent too much spreading. Also used half butter, half margarine. Gave each dough mixture a 1/8 tsp. baking powder after my initial batch was a bit too flat for me (although I am not a "puffy" cookie person -- I am more of a soft & chewy cookie person). Next time I will use peanut butter chips in the chocolate cookie dough and semisweet in the "white" cookie dough (this time used semisweets in the whole recipe -- which was great). Try this one. I cannot imagine many cookie lovers would be disappointed.

Beef Bourguignon II

Reviewed: Jan. 27, 2009
Very good recipe. Easy to make. I did everything in one pan that could go from the cooktop to the oven in an effort to reduce clean up. I just removed the beef to a plate once it was browned, and then added it back in after the onions had softened. Like others, I made mine with half the wine (I am not a big wine fan) and half beef stock. I had to adda bit more beef stock as it cooked to have a nice amount of sauce at the end. I'm also hopelessly addicted to a bit of sweet in my meal, so I added less than a Tbsp, of brown sugar to the sauce. I suppose this will make Beef Bourguignon purests cringe, but I liked that slight sweeting it gave the sauce. The sauce thickened up very nicely in the oven and really clung to the meart. Instead of canned mushrooms, I sauted sliced mushrooms and added those. Served with noodles. It was a very nice meal for our family.

Jenn's Out Of This World Spaghetti and Meatballs

Reviewed: Nov. 29, 2008
Very good sauce and meatballs. Easy to make. I like sweet sauce, but I did cut the sugar down a bit. I'd say add the sugar to taste. Meatballs were very good -- not dry at all. I used a meatball mix of meat (beef, pork and veal) as opposed to just beef. Very good. As a family of four, I made the sauce as called for in the recipe, but only put in half of the meatballs. The other half, I froze individually. Then, I froze half of the sauce, I will combine these two another night for another dinner (in the crockpot maybe), but am thrilled that most of my prep work is done. Did have some leftover meatballs from tonights meal, and am planning on putting those on a hoagie bun with some moz. cheese on top; throw it under the broiler and have some meatball subs for lunch tomorrow.

Make-Ahead Turkey Gravy

Reviewed: Nov. 21, 2008
Extra work, but having the gravy done ahead of time is worth it! I am cooking Thanksgiving dinner for 40 people. With plenty to keep me busy on Thanksgiving Day, having the Gravy reay ahead of time and staying warm in a crock pot is greatly appreciated. And not only that, it's delicious! A smooth and flavorful turkey gravy.
