So good! I love the simplicity of the recipe and the ingredients are something I always have on hand. Quick and easy. I cooked my chops about 25 minutes total time and they were juicy and delicious. I did cut the liquid in half and it was plenty! I added green beans to the pan towards the end. Very good recipe, thanks!

Mama Bear's Porridge

Reviewed: Dec. 13, 2009

Very good! Creamier than regular oatmeal, we don't add extra milk afterwards, just sugar. Love the vanilla flavor. Healthy and filling!

Turkey Shepherd's Pie

Reviewed: Dec. 1, 2009

Wow, this was so good! What a great way to use up ALL the leftovers! I omitted the carrots and added extra gravy (about 1 cup total) but would add even more next time, or as hubby suggested, serve some gravy on the side. Thanks!

Apple Crisp II

Reviewed: Nov. 29, 2009

Yum, so good! I cut the recipe in half and used an 8x8 pan. I cut back on the sugar a little bit because my apples were sweet already. I thought the amount of water might be too much, it seemed very liquidy, but the water absorped while the crisp cooled. Thanks so much, I will definitely make this again!

Slow Cooker Chicken Taco Soup

Reviewed: Nov. 7, 2009

I love the slow cooker, but I'm leery about chicken recipes because they turn out dry. That was NOT the case with this recipe; it was wonderful! I wasn't sure if I should drain the black beans or not, so I did (after rinsing). Followed the recipe exactly using a double batch of Bill Echols Taco Seasoning. The chili beans were spicy, and gave it a nice bit of heat. Topped with cheddar cheese, a little sour cream, cilantro and served with scoop tortilla chips. Fabulous! Makes plenty for a crowd. Thanks for sharing!

Brown Sugar Smokies

Reviewed: Oct. 25, 2009

What a hit! Took them to a Halloween party and they were the only appetizer completely gone! I used two packages of smokies and cut the pound of bacon in fourths. Not quite enough bacon for all, but there were only about 8 or 10 smokies without it. I put the brown sugar in a bag and coated the smokies before wrapping and also sprinkled it on top as written. I did not use toothpicks, they were fine without them because the sugar and bacon melted together to keep it in place. So good, thanks for sharing!

Corn and Zucchini Melody

Reviewed: Oct. 21, 2009

This was good! I used bacon bits because I had them on hand which made it a much quicker dish. The flavors go well together. Fast and easy, thanks!

Tangy Slow Cooker Pork Roast

Reviewed: Oct. 18, 2009

Hmmm, this was good but it came out strange looking. The top of the roast was completely white and the bottom was the color of the sauce. Not very appealing. We liked the flavor of the sauce but it did not permeate the meat, so next time I will pierce with a fork before cooking and turn it over half way through the cooking time. I am going to take other reviewers's advice and make BBQ pork sandwiches with the leftovers. I served it with mashed potatoes and next time will thicken the sauce before serving.

Sesame Parmesan Zucchini

Reviewed: Sep. 30, 2009

This was very good. I like baking vs. sauteing. Easy and quick. I used two zucchini and reduced the amount of oil. The cooking time was fine for me. Thanks!

Very good! I really liked the rosemary with the cauliflower! I added some garlic too. Hubby really liked this and he's not a big cauliflower fan. Thanks!

Banana Banana Bread

Excellent. Next time I will add some cinnamon as others have suggested and maybe some chocolate chips. But it was very good as stated.

Balsamic Bruschetta

Reviewed: Aug. 14, 2009

I've made this recipe several times now but am just now reviewing it. This is SO good! Home grown tomatoes are a must! I can make a meal of this, yum! This is a great way to use up tomatoes and basil from your garden. Thanks for sharing.

Garlic Green Beans

Reviewed: Jul. 12, 2009

Yum! I used fresh green beans and this turned out great. Next time I would cut down on the olive oil a bit, but other than that, these were really good!

Prime Rib

Reviewed: Jul. 5, 2009

This sounded so good, but cooking it this way didn't work for me. I had a 4 lb roast and cooked it 5 min per pound and let it sit for 90 min. It was not done. We like rare, but this was way too rare! I had to cook the slices on the stove to finish them up. Also, I didn't like how the mustard crust wasn't crispy. It was soft and soggy since the pan was covered. Without a lid it would have crisped up nicely. I'll keep looking for a prime rib recipe.

Cajun Shrimp Orecchiette

Reviewed: Jun. 24, 2009

Very good! Fast and easy, a great weeknight dinner. I added more spinach because we love it, and the amount didn't seem like quite enough. Nice, spicy dish, just the way we like it! I served it with parmesan cheese on top. Thanks!
