Easy Slow Cooker French Dip

Reviewed: Oct. 16, 2009
I have a new slow cooker, and this was the first recipe I tried with it. I thought the beef was tasty and tender, and the dipping sauce was just as I remembered it when I had beef dip years ago. I added garlic powder to the beef roast before cooking, and I used 1/2 bottle of beer as some other reviewers suggested. There was no way the beef was able to be sliced, but shredding was fine. I cut the buns in half, toasted each, then heated the meat on one side and melted cheddar cheese with green onion on the other - and to serve, put the meat half and cheese half together. YUM.

Yum Yums

Reviewed: Oct. 16, 2009
I have made a similar recipe to this for years minus the jam. They are sweet enough as is so adding jam is just away too much for our tastes. Otherwise they were always a favorite and other nuts can be substituted. Baking the crust for even 5 mins. does make a difference.

Double Chocolate Cake I

Reviewed: Oct. 15, 2009
I do not care for a dark chocolate cake so this was great. Also, one of the best one bowl cakes I have found - most of them use shortening. Another plus for this cake is that it does not use too much baking soda. Please, please have all your ingredients at room temperature otherwise you will have lumps of butter and chocolate. I do empathize with newer bakers because they probably did not realize that this is an absolute necessity (especially for one bowl cakes). This cake does work!!!

Ham and Swiss Braid

Reviewed: Oct. 13, 2009
I cheated a lil bit and used store bought crescent roll dough to make this. WOW this was amazing. I made it the first time when we went to my parents. We spent the day closing down the trailer for the season and were all tired and cold when we got home. This hit the spot. Everyone loved it. In the first week after making it, it has been requested twice and my mother had me write it down for her. Even my father who is a meat and potatoes man asked for seconds.

Orange Glazed Carrots

Reviewed: Oct. 12, 2009
I found the carrots to be too bland tasting and had too much liquid left over. I think there needs to be a little bit more flavor and possibly a thicker sauce. I will make a few changes and try again.

Spanish Rice

Reviewed: Oct. 12, 2009
I will try this recipe again, because I think the mistake was my fault and not the recipe. I found the rice too mushy, but I had it ready about 20 minutes before the rest of the meal was done. Flavor was good, just too mushy for me.

Banana Crumb Muffins

Reviewed: Oct. 12, 2009
I added the vanilla & spice as others suggested. 2 of my 3 bananas were un-usable, so I substituted a melted all-natural, frozen strawberry bar. And I forgot to add the flour to the topping. And they turned out fantastic! These turned my terrible day into terrific!

Cream Cheese Pound Cake

Reviewed: Oct. 11, 2009
excellent recipe and very versatile. A lot of pound cakes do not have any baking powder and I prefer this one with a little. Definitely use butter (absolutely no substitutes) and beat well and noone should have a problem. Thanks for a great submission.

Unbelievably Yummy Chicken Casserole

Reviewed: Oct. 9, 2009
really really good! My kids hate cassaroles as a rule but they loved this. Like many others I changed the whipped topping & added 1/2 cup mayo & 1/2 cup sour cream instead. Also, I added a package of stuffing mix (made up) as a topping.Made Sept 09

Glendora's Chocolate Fudge Pudding (Cake)

Reviewed: Oct. 9, 2009
This is a nice pudding cake and better eaten hot with ice cream. For reviewers that complained about it being runny that is the way it is supposed to be: cake on top and a sauce on the bottom. Do not try to put on a plate - just spoon it out of the dish.

Orange Glazed Pork Tenderloin

Reviewed: Oct. 8, 2009
After reading the other reviews, I made a few changes. I doubled the orange marmalade, and also used olive oil instead of butter. While there still wasn't a strong orange flavour, it was detectable and a very tasty pork meal. A definite make again.

Mushroom, Cheese, and Haddock Bake

Reviewed: Oct. 4, 2009
This is a very good recipe for haddock - I used crimini mushrooms, omitted the dried chili peppers and substituted cheddar cheese for the blend suggested in the recipe. If you use fresh fillets, they'll be cooked after the first 15 minutes, so I broiled the cheese after the initial cooking time and that worked like a charm. The reason for the 4 stars - having access to fresh haddock all year around, I have other recipes that are just awesome. This one is great for a quick week-day meal.
