Banana Pumpkin Bread

Reviewed: Dec. 7, 2009
oh heavens is this good ! I used a miniature loaf pan that turns out 8 small bread loaves and cooking for 25 min made them just perfect ! I also baked a full loaf for the time specified in the reciped and it also turned out lovely. These little darlings will go in all my Xmas presents this year. For now they are snuggled up in my freezer while i enjoy the smells of the season the bread left in my house. I added a touch of Ground Cloves and instead of nutz i put in orange flavoured Craisins. HOORAY !!!

Whipped Shortbread Cookies

Reviewed: Dec. 6, 2009
They were good, but I did find them to be quite dry. Looking at all the previous reviews, it was probably something I did wrong. I don't have a mixer (not even a hand mixer!) so I had to do all the whipping by hand, and maybe it just wasn't enough? Regardless, I won't be making them again.

Easy, Cheesy Zucchini Bake

Reviewed: Dec. 6, 2009
Used this as a base for an excellent dinner! We make our own spaghetti sauce so first we sauteed 2 cloves of crushed garlic and 2 tbsp chopped spanish onion in a tbsp of extra virgin olive oil. Added ground turkey and browned. Added 1 cup shredded carrots and 2 medium tomatoes cubed. Spices added: 1 tbsp basil, 2 tsp oregano, 1/4 tsp thyme, 1 tbsp dried crushed chili peppers, plus salt and pepper. Simmered for 15 minutes. Layered in pan as per recipe. Baked for 30 minutes. Added cheddar, mozarella, romano and parmesean reggiano cheeses, increased oven temp to 400 and baked an additional 15 minutes uncovered to brown. This was excellent and VERY filling!!

World's Best Lasagna

Reviewed: Dec. 6, 2009
YUM! First time making lasagna so I wasn't surprised it took so long. I followed the recipe exactly except that I couldn't find sweet Italian sausage so I used mild, and I put grated mozzarella on top instead of sliced. Also I think I used more mozzarella than the recipe called for. I didn't add as much salt because I prefer to let people add it themselves. This was SO GOOD and I'm making it again for my family on Christmas Eve.

Mouth-Watering Stuffed Mushrooms

Reviewed: Dec. 6, 2009
Made these last night as an appetizer and they were gone in a flash! I accidentally added a bit more cayenne so they were quite spicy but delicious. I used tiny mushrooms which were a huge pain but looked nicer on the plate. Because they were so small they barely needed 15 minutes in the oven. I followed the recipe exactly but next time would add green onion just for colour. Will make often, thanks a lot!

Easy Pasta Fagioli

Reviewed: Dec. 4, 2009
I changed things up a bit for my family's tastes and what we had on hand. I sauted about a tsp of minced garlic in oil for about a minute, then I added 2 cans of chicken broth and a little over a cup of meatless spaghetti sauce. I also added some dried basil, pepper, and a couple shakes of dehydrated onion flakes. I let it simmer for a few minutes, then I added 1 can of drained garbanzo beans and ½ can of drained black beans. I pureed the rest of the can of black beans with some of the soup and then stirred it into the soup (it helped to thicken and improve the texture and colour of the soup). I let that simmer for another ten minutes, then I added a couple cups of a frozen pasta-veggie blend (mini bow ties, peas, carrots, corn). Ten minutes later, dinner was done and made extra-tasty with some parmesan. It was very similar to minestrone and quite delicious. Thanks for sharing, Cindy!

Buffalo Chicken Fingers

Reviewed: Dec. 3, 2009
Was really good with modifications suggested by other reviewers. I marinated in Frank's Red Hot for a few hours, doubled both the flour and the breadcrumb mixture, and added hot sauce to the eggs as well. I had trouble getting the breading to stick on especially after flipping them. I tossed them in buffalo wing sauce after cooking and used them to make crunchy buffalo chicken sandwiches. They were great! Thanks!

Pineapple Upside-Down Cake II

Reviewed: Dec. 3, 2009
There was way too much butter in the topping and my cake came out greasy. Next time I make this cake I will definately cut the amount of butter in half.

No Bake Cookies III

Reviewed: Dec. 3, 2009
YUM YUM YUM YUM YUM! These cookies are decadent and delicious! So easy and quick to make and SO good! I followed other reviewer's suggestions and used just under 2 cups sugar but they were still very sweet so next time I will go 1.5 cups! I also brought to a rolling boil and boiled 2 minutes and the cookies still came out soft so maybe even 2.5- minutes will be better next time. Thanks for the great recipe!

Good Ol' Alabama Sweet Tea

Reviewed: Dec. 3, 2009
My husband is very appreciative of this recipe. He is from Georgia and loves his sweet tea. I, on the other hand, put almost no sugar in my iced tea... So he asked me to make this for him. I did a half-batch as I don't have a huge pitcher, and I used 3/4 cup sugar instead of a cup. At first he said it wasn't sweet enough, but after it sat in the fridge for an hour or two, he said it was much better. I tried it... and almost went into sugar-shock. And I love my sweets! Well, he can enjoy it, and I'll enjoy my hot tea. :) Thanks for sharing, LoveCats2001!

Chicken 'n' Biscuits

Reviewed: Dec. 3, 2009
Great! I wanted to do something stew-like for my family, and this was a good choice. I took liberties with the veggies (I used some frozen peas and broccoli, and I used diced fresh carrots) and I used a pound of chicken that I cooked on the stovetop in a little oil and then cubed. I forgot the Parmesan cheese and I omitted the parsley. It was really tasty! I added a little chicken bouillon to the sauce as it needed salt, and to save on dishes I prepared and baked it in a large oven-safe pot. Even better the next day! Thanks for sharing, Marilyn!

Pie Crust IV

Reviewed: Dec. 3, 2009
Very good. I usually use a different recipe, and I usually use lard. While lard makes for a lighter, flakier pastry, the flavour of lard is usually kind of gamy. I might do a half-lard, half-shortening blend next time, but it was a very good crust for our pumpkin pie. Thanks for sharing, Jan!

Milk Chocolate Pecan Pie

Reviewed: Dec. 2, 2009
I thought the chocolate would melt and spread across the crust but instead it stayed in chip form. It was not that appealing to me or my hubby. I will look for another chocolate pecan pie recipe.

Foolproof Rib Roast

Reviewed: Dec. 2, 2009
Unbelievable roast! Very tender and came out mid-rare. I would make sure to roast it the full three hours in the oven to do medium. The BEST prime rib I've ever eaten! We're doing this for Christmas instead of turkey. Oh, and make sure to rub in a large amount of either coarse kosher salt, or sea salt...what flavour!
