Quick Classic Gazpacho

Reviewed: Jul. 10, 2011

Perfect just as written! Only add the jalapeno pepper if you like it really spicy!

I made these for a wedding shower and everyone loved them. I liked them but thought they were a little too salty (and I love salt!) so next time I won't use as much salad dressing mix. Also, to lower the fat content, I used lite cream cheese and plain yogurt in place of the mayo. I also added some dill to the cream cheese mixture. These are very fast and easy to make, and it looks like you spent a lot more time and effort!

Tabbouleh II

Reviewed: Jan. 2, 2010

This was good and very similar to the tabbouleh at our local lebanese restaurant. Like other reviewers, I only used half of the tomatoes called for. Also, the next time I make it, I will use a little less mint.

Broccoli Rice Casserole

Reviewed: Oct. 18, 2009

I was worried about this ending up soupy because what I poured in to the casserole dish was very thin, but it ended up with a great consistency. It could have used a little more flavor, next time I will add more salt & pepper.

Debdoozie's Blue Ribbon Chili

Reviewed: Sep. 20, 2009

Five stars for how easy this is! It's a very good basic chili. I thought it might taste too much like tomato sauce since it calls for 2 1/2 cups, but that was not the case. I made it as is and really liked it. You can adjust the spice, heat, sweetness, etc. based on your preference (and based on what type of chili seasoning and salsa you use). I used Herdez mild salsa and McCormick Chili seasoning.

Pork Chop Potato Casserole

Reviewed: Aug. 11, 2009

I usually make this just as a side dish without the pork chops. I also add a little bit more cheese because we love it--it's a family favorite!

Tomato-Bread Salad with Basil and Capers

Reviewed: Jul. 18, 2009

If you like bruschetta, you'll love this salad! Great as written or with the addition of a chopped cucumber or a can of white beans.

Fluff Dip for Fruit

Reviewed: Jul. 6, 2009

I have made this several times now, and it is always a big hit at my house and at parties. I do use only about 1/4 cup of alcohol instead of the 1/2 cup called for. This does make a lot, but as another reviewer noted, just put half back in the cool whip container and freeze it for later.

Rich Chocolate Frosting

Reviewed: Jun. 22, 2009

Made it it exactly as written (just halved the recipe) and it is the best chocolate frosting I have ever eaten. It is delicious with Black Magic Cake from this site.

Oriental Sesame Slaw

Reviewed: May 22, 2009

I made this exactly as directed and thought it was pretty bland, but it looks like I'm in the minority here! I wish I would have taken another reviewer's suggestion to julienne the jicama, because it lost a lot of its crunchiness when grated. I think I'll stick with sal's blue cheese cole slaw from this site, but thanks for sharing the recipe!

Chicken Zucchini Casserole

Reviewed: May 22, 2009

Can I give this 10 stars? I've made this for a number of different occasions and have repeatedly been asked for the recipe. Even the pickiest eaters I know like this casserole. If you like stuffing, you will be in love with this casserole. The leftovers are great too! I make it exactly as written. Bev Dutro, if I ever win a million dollars, I'm giving it to you for sharing this recipe with the rest of us.

Sesame Noodles

Reviewed: May 12, 2009

I wonder if 6 tbsp oil is a typo, because that makes it way too oily. You can make this five stars by only using 1-2 tbsp or oil and adding some veggies (carrots, cucumber, zucchini, etc). Thanks for sharing the recipe--it's a good starting out point!

Asian Lettuce Wraps

Made this exactly as written and it was SO good--ten times better than any steak I have ever eaten at a restaurant, including expensive steakhouses. There was lots of flavor in this. Thank you so much for the recipe. This will be the go to dish for special occasions at my house now. YUM!!!
