Chicken with Mushrooms, Prosciutto, and Cream Sauce

Reviewed: Nov. 9, 2009

this was so good! i used chicken breast instead of thighs and cut the recipe to feed 2 people instead of 6. i was iffy about using the wine for the sauce since im not a huge alcohol fan, even the taste of it in my food. i decided i would try it with the wine and im very glad i did. came out perfect. i made some mixed veggies with it and just tossed those in the remaining sauce with some salt and pepper. this is going in my keeper box for sure. might try it with thighs next time just to see if theres any difference in taste. but certainly a 5 star with the breasts.

Quick and Easy Chicken Noodle Soup

Reviewed: Nov. 3, 2009

Really good. I followed reviewers advice and sauteed the onion, garlic, celery and carrots in a little butter. I only needed 4 cups of salt reduced chicken stock, but then again, I didn't add pasta. I've been feeling like I'm coming down with the flu and every single person in my family loved this even though I made it to get some vitamins. My soup hater finished hers first and declared it delicious. If you need a good chicken soup to fix your cold, try this.

Golden Pork Chops

Reviewed: Sep. 24, 2009

This recipe wasn't outstanding, but it was definitely above average. I fried the chops in oil and onion and then baked in the oven in one tin of cream of mushroom and one tin of those sliced mushrooms in gravy, while adding a handful of sliced fresh mushrooms. The herb for pork is rosemary, so I added some of that to the chops when I was frying them. Delicious and tender.

Cream Cheese Jalapeno Hamburgers

Reviewed: Sep. 5, 2009

these we're really good despite the fact that i charred them a little bit on the grill. i just mixed the cream cheese mixture and the jalapenos in with the meat and made patties out of that, they fell apart. i think next time im going to keep a better eye on them for starters and just do them as the recipe states.

Famous Butter Chicken

Reviewed: Aug. 15, 2009

this was really good, i went a little over board with the garlic salt and it was too salty but that was completely my fault. chicken came out tender and juicy, had a nice garlic buttery flavor. served it with mashed potatos and made gravy out of the drippings in the baking dish.

Baked Garlic Parmesan Chicken

Reviewed: Aug. 11, 2009

i dont know if i did something wrong but i followed the recipe exact and it just tasted like i rolled the chicken breast in bread crumbs. there was no flavor whatsoever. ill read some reviews and adjust the recipe accordingly next time i make this. i think it would be awesome with a few extras done to it, or maybe even a white sauce over it. but as is its pretty bland.

Super-Simple, Super-Spicy Mongolian Beef

Reviewed: Aug. 8, 2009

you werent lying when you said super spicy! wooooooooooooow was this hot lol. its definitely full of flavor and ill be making it again but i think im going to cut the red pepper in half or 1/4 even. i added carrots and broccoli to it and used a yellow onion instead of green. really good dish but if your only mildly immune to hot food, cut the peppers dramatically. and to the reviewer that said it was dry and needed more sauce, i dont know what you did wrong but there was plenty of sauce in the pan when i was done with it.

Crustless Spinach Quiche

This is absolutely wonderful, so easy and so very tasty. I used half crumbled feta and half cheddar cheese. I've made it in muffin pans and have made it in a slab for get togethers. Every time I make it it disappears in no time at all.

Prosciutto Parmesan Pasta

Reviewed: Jul. 5, 2009

way too salty, sauce too thin and prosciutto too overpowering and i only used 1/4 pound as opposed to the half pound it calls for. i used broccoli instead of peas because peas are disgusting (IMO). the broccoli was the only saving grace of this dish. i think ill just stick to Alfredo when i want a white sauced pasta dish.

Wacky Cake III

Reviewed: Jun. 25, 2009

Wow. Great cake. Just about everyone ate it, including my daughter's friends, my family etc. I did use veggie oil substitute instead of margarine but otherwise kept it the same. You can smell a little of the vinegar ( smells a bit odd) as this comes out of the oven, but once it completely cools there is no strange aroma at all. Smells just like chocolate cake. I used my icing instead of the recipes, because mine is loved by all my family. 2 cups icing sugar, 2 cups real whipped cream and 1/3 cup cocoa whipped with electric beaters, spread on cooled cake. After a night in the fridge, the cake was a dead ringer for the type you buy at the supermarket, slightly dense, moist and chocolaty. Yep, you guessed it. I'm making it again tonight. lol. I also mix it with an electric beater in a separate bowl first so there's no lumps and transfer to a lightly greased and lined pan. Thanks alot.

Quick Gnocchi

Reviewed: Jun. 11, 2009

This is weird. I won't make it again. I'd rather try real potatoes. It does taste fake and the dough wasn't tough, however, it was crumbly, hard to roll, a pain to make and the quantities all over the place because 1/2 cup instant potato which I had and 1/2 cup boiling water just made a crumb mix. It wouldn't hold together at all. The egg just made it, but I had to add extra water to make a stiff dough, but then I had to add flour to make this dish and add more water. As you can see, it didn't work out. Nice idea, but we threw the dough out.
