Firecracker Grilled Alaska Salmon

Reviewed: Nov. 3, 2009
This was fantastic. I made a few minor changes - 1/2 the peppers (thanks to the reviewer who suggested, my lips were still quite warm), 1/2 the peanut oil to reduce fat, and 1/2 the soy sauce (used lower sodium) to reduce overall sodium. Baked since it's cold out and poured a small amount of the cooked marinade over rice, broccoli and cauliflower... Delicious meal!

Cauliflower-Cheese Soup

Reviewed: Oct. 20, 2009
I've never low rated a recipe before but this was very bland and tasteless, I think it may work better by omitting the carrot and potato, using more cauliflower, a little more celery and definitely onion, a cup less milk, a cup of chicken stock and a teaspoon of mustard powder! I'm a big fan of Cauliflower Cheese soup but this was nothing like it - sorry.

Beer, Orzo and Chicken

Reviewed: Oct. 20, 2009
I wasn't sure what to expect with this receipe. I followed exactly except for the pimentos (used red pepper instead). The first few bites were a bit of a surprise but I ended up wanting more when I finished. Needs to be cooked longer than directed - until the liquid reduces - and is delicious the next day.

Raspberry Vinegar Chicken Breasts

Way to much vinegar for what should be a creamy dish.

Eggplant -- Easy, Good and Tasty

Reviewed: Oct. 14, 2009
I've given it 4 stars as the breading and tomato (I used canned Italian and no dressing) was tasty... just can't say that I will ever try eggplant again :(

Mashed Potato Cakes

Reviewed: Sep. 27, 2009
These came out really well - I've made potato cakes in years gone by, the way my Grandma used to, never oven baked - I love this idea, so much easier than pan frying - they do come out best with mash that is quite firm i.e. been in the fridge for a couple of days - I added a little cheese to my mash and they were far from bland. I will be looking for reasons to make mash potato more often now so I can make these again!

Pork Tenderloin with Dijon Marsala Sauce

Reviewed: Sep. 26, 2009
If there was a higher rating than 5 stars this would be the first recipe I would give it to. I have to say I am not really a fan of pork at all, but my husband loves it so I have long searched for something I might enjoy and I've finally come across it. This really was a delightful dish, the quantities for the sauce were perfect. I smothered my pork with the Dijon and let it stand for a couple of hours before browning. I think it is key to make the sauce in the skillet that you brown the pork in and definitely do not omit the mustard on the pork stage before browning. Freshly ground black pepper on the finished result was lovely. It never ceases to amaze me how reviewers on this site change recipes or methods and then criticise the results. My husband said this was the best pork he has ever had - and he's had a lot!! Thank you Kolagirl for sharing - this is a classic keeper!

Cheeseburger and Fries Casserole

Reviewed: Aug. 27, 2009
I was very suprised at how delicious this recipe was. I followed the directions and used the specified ingredients and I actually found it very salty. I also added some chopped bacon with the soups because I like bacon on my cheeseburger and I chose the SUPER crispy fries and layered them with the shredded cheese so the steam could escape and they were not at all soggy, they were crisp and perfect! I will definately make this often! Next time I will try replacing the mushroom soup with tomato, just to have a change.

Asian Salmon

Reviewed: Aug. 19, 2009
I had my husband make the marinade while I was at work by telling him over the phone. Usually if he doesn't like the look or smell of something (sesame oil) he won't even try it... well... he tried this and told me to give it a 5. This will be served in my house over and over!

Bacon Wrapped Hamburgers

Reviewed: Aug. 2, 2009
Its been years since I tried making home-made burgers - I am so glad I used this recipe. I stuck with the ingredients to the letter, however I was a little nervous about putting them onto the barbeque as the last time I made burgers I'd cooked them in the oven, so I tentatively put them on with a piece of foil under with small holes in it - they did start to break up at the edges slightly I took them off the bbq and transferred them onto a baking tray and put them into the oven at 400oF for about 20 minutes - the result was amazing - they held together perfectly and the taste was superb - next time I think I might try pan cooking them - this recipe is a keeper for me - thanks!

Broccoli Chicken Roli

Reviewed: Jul. 24, 2009
I made this as a braid style - it turned out even tastier than it looked. My husband thought I went to a lot of work when actually, it took very little time at all thanks to the crescent rolls.

Taiwanese Pork Chops

This was fantastic. Didn't need to modify the ingredients (other than using boneless pork tenderloin). I highly recommend this with rice and sauteed veggies!

Pork Medallions

Reviewed: Mar. 25, 2009
I made this for dinner last night and it was a hit! It had the same flavour of a nice roast pork, only faster! i will be making this again (and if you mix up a bit more sauce it goes great on top of mashed potatoes!)

Thai Cucumber Salad

Reviewed: Mar. 23, 2009
Sorry folks, not a big fan of this one. I don't think I like cilantro because it overpowered the taste of everything and that's all I could taste in my mouth ... for hours. My boyfriend thought the salad was OK at best. I'm surprised this many people like cilantro. Ewww

Sweet Chili Thai Sauce

Reviewed: Mar. 21, 2009
This was amazing. I didn't have a hot chili to dice so I used tabasco in it's place. This taste just like the Thai sauce that Presidents Choice bottles. We had it with a Thai meal and the leftover was sitting on the table. Later, roasted chicken potato chips were dipped in it. Also amazing.

15-Minute Dinner Nachos Supreme

Reviewed: Mar. 15, 2009
This was pretty good. My spouse enjoyed it more than I did, but it was good. I went with the recipe as listed, but I added a can of kidney beans as another person suggested to give it more "fill". I think a chopped jalepeno might spice it up a little more for my liking. Also ... be sure to use 5 minute instant rice. I think some reveiwers must have used reg (20 min) rice.

Hunter Style Chicken

Reviewed: Mar. 15, 2009
Time I rated this one as I have used it many times - it is excellent - sometimes I have used both red and white wine in this depending what I have left over - either turns out equally well and I add a little crushed garlic - we love it - thank you.
