Reviews

I used walnuts as the nut and thought the chocolate chips totally overwhelmed where you couldn't taste the walnuts. Some of my cookies were larger and the middles didn't get done. I was hoping you could taste the nuts more, so only gave this a '3'. Very similar to choc chip cookies.

Scalloped Potatoes I

Reviewed: Apr. 17, 2006

I thought these turned out average. I made the recipe a little differently which may account for why I didn't care for the flavor as much. I used red potatoes. I also doubled the recipe and was worried about it taking too long to bake, so I boiled the potatoes first before slicing them. I thought the potatoes overwhelmed the cheese flavor. Also thought there was nothing special about the cheese flavor. It is easy to make, though!

Sweet Potato Casserole V

Reviewed: Apr. 17, 2006

Since I made this for Easter, I substituted 2% milk for the eggnog. It has a wonderful flavor and the topping makes a nice crust to go along with the sweet potato. I did place it under the broiler for a few minutes to get the top a little crisper. I will definitely make again!

Spinach Deviled Eggs

Reviewed: Dec. 22, 2005

I loved the taste of these eggs. I took them to my work holiday party. They didn't go as quickly as the traditional deviled eggs. I think people were scared off by the 'green' in them. I thought they were wonderful, though!

Cranberry Sauce

Reviewed: Dec. 22, 2005

This recipe had a very good flavor. The sauce wasn't as thick as I expected. I couldn't tell when the cranberries 'popped' so just cooked them until they had cooked down some.

Summer Garden Pork Chops

Reviewed: Sep. 7, 2005

I didn't care for this recipe at all. My husband liked it more than me. I didn't like the combination of spices.

Mrs. Sigg's Snickerdoodles

Reviewed: Sep. 6, 2005

I put my butter in the microwave and it was liquified when I made the recipe. Not sure if this was what made the dough too sticky. I didn't have time to stick it in the fridge to see if it would firm up, so I just added 1/2 cup more flour. They still turned out wonderful!

Award Winning Soft Chocolate Chip Cookies

Reviewed: Sep. 6, 2005

These cookies are very good and soft! I only had 1 box of vanilla pudding last time I made them, and it still turned out great.

Flip-Flop Cobbler

Reviewed: Sep. 2, 2005

This cobbler was pretty good. I made it with blackberries instead of peaches. My topping didn't rise to the top as I expected.

Cousin Cosmo's Greek Chicken

Reviewed: Sep. 2, 2005

This recipe is excellent! The best thing I've tried on this website. The spinach and tomatoes aren't enough for a side dish. More of something to eat on top of the chicken. This would be great with spaghetti and red sauce on the side!

Herbal Tuna Salad

Reviewed: Aug. 31, 2005

I didn't find anything special about this recipe. Maybe my spices are just old, but I didn't think they did much for the tuna salad.

My Crab Cakes

Reviewed: Sep. 9, 2004

This recipe was delicious. I broiled the crab cakes, so omitted rolling them in cracker crumbs. They were very good! Would definitely make again!

Musaka

Reviewed: Sep. 9, 2004

I cooked the potatoes for 5 min as suggested. I also drained the fat from the beef after it cooked. Adding water made it way too soupy so I had to bake it for an extra 20 min to get some of the water off. Taste was average.

This was an average recipe. Nothing to complain about, but it was pretty bland.

Pork Chops with Apples, Onions, and Sweet Potatoes

Reviewed: Sep. 2, 2004

This recipe is simple and very good! To make it healthier, I added some carrots and used 2 tbl. Splenda and 1 tbl. of brown sugar. I also sprinkled cinnamon over everything. Cooking it for 1hr 15 min made everything a little too mushy. I think it depends on how small you cut everything up.
