I loved the flavor from the mayo. I followed a suggestion and turned the pieces over halfway through cooking time, and that was very good advice. Next time, I'll thin down the mayo so that I can dip instead of "smear" it on by hand.

Okra Patties

Reviewed: Jun. 4, 2009

Definitely a keeper! I used a little higher proportion of okra, because I needed to use it up. I added garlic powder and thyme, and that was definitely a nice combo. This recipe could be used with any vegetable fritter idea.

Butter Flaky Pie Crust

Reviewed: Mar. 5, 2009

This will be my new standard! Thank you! I added a bit more salt because of what I was filling the shell with, and I made it in the food processor to save time. Despite that and rolling out immediately without chilling, it still turned out perfectly! The flakes are the best I've ever made with a non-shortening crust.

Chess Pie IV

Reviewed: Mar. 5, 2009

Exactly what I expected, easy to make, and insanely yummy. I used "Butter Flaky Pie Crust" from this site under it, and the combination is perfect.

Easy Polenta with Tomato Sauce

Reviewed: Jan. 4, 2009

This is great. I needed a plain polenta to use with another recipe, so I omitted the spaghetti sauce. The flavor is wonderful, this will be my standard polenta from now on! I'll plan on making it a day ahead and refrigerating so I can cut firm slices in the future.

Ranch Dressing II

Reviewed: Oct. 30, 2008

I used this recipe to make a dip with blended cottage cheese and buttermilk, for nutritional purposes. It is delicious! I also added finely shredded sharp cheddar to dry up my dip texture and richen the taste, it is a great dip!

Sophie's Zucchini Bread

Reviewed: Jul. 25, 2008

Exactly what a person is looking for in a traditional zucchini bread. I am overrun with yellow summer squash, so that's what I used, and 2 cups of white whole wheat flour for some of the all purpose. I also sprinkled in about 1/4 teaspoon allspice, and the whole thing was lovely.

Mocha Walnut Pie

Reviewed: May 25, 2008

Very easy and very good! It got great reviews at our annual Memorial Day picnic. I used 1/4 cup extremely strong fresh coffee in mine.

Healthy Banana Cookies

Reviewed: May 23, 2008

This is a good standby for healthy snacking. My bananas weren't very ripe, and I think they helped hold the shape of the cookies I formed. I used half raisins and half prunes for the dates, because that's what I had on hand, and whizzed them in the food processor to chop. I tossed everything else in the recipe into the food processor on top of them and combined it that way (not over-doing it), and it was super fast.

Crisp Oatmeal Cookies

Reviewed: Dec. 10, 2005

I used butter for the shortening and "white chocolate" chips for the chips, and this was a lovely, albeit sweet, cookie. Very nice.

I forgot the lemon juice, and it was fabulous anyway. It was fast and easy and went very well with ham!

Grandma Johnson's Scones

Reviewed: Feb. 24, 2004

I made these quickly as "drop" scones instead of rolling them out. They were fluffy and wonderful without the raisins, and I look forward to including them next time (or chocolate chips, craisins, nuts, etc.).
