My family had never had this and I was really wanting some Manicotti, so looked up the recipe and decided this had to be the easiest one to make, although I did add some Provalone cheese and a pack of frozen, rinsed, and squezzed dried Spinach. I also add the remaining Parmesan cheese I had left to the top. I was GREAT!! Although a lil much for 3 people but it didn't go to waste! Planes for the next batch is to add some diced Jalapeno peppres.

Clone of a Cinnabon

Reviewed: Aug. 31, 2008

These cinnamon rolls are absolutely fabulous! I had to let the rolled & cut rolls rise a little longer than 30 minutes to fill up the pan. Next time I will bake them at 350 and start watching them around 15 minutes. They came out fine, they were just a little more browned than I prefer. Thanks for sharing!!!!

Mock Apple Pie

My boyfriend is allergic to apples. Weird! Myself, I love apple pie. So I always lamented not being able to make it. But this recipe turned things around completely! He loves it, I love it, this pie is wonderful!

Marshmallow Treats

Reviewed: Aug. 18, 2008

Great basic recipe for krispy bars! You can add in anything you want, or change the cereal to chocolate or fruity krispies... This recipe in a 9x13 pan makes bars less than an inch thick. If you're wanting really thick bars, a 9x13 pan could easily hold a double recipe.

Albondigas Soup I

Reviewed: Aug. 16, 2008

We were in the mood for soup and I just happened across this recipe! It is awesome! I used chorizo sausage and my meatballs came out really sticky and hard to roll, so maybe that's why. I wanted to put it in the slow cooker, so I simmered the meat balls in a pan with 2 cans beef broth, skimmed off the fat, and added it to the rest of the ingredients in the slow cooker. I let it cook around 6 hours on high and it was awesome. I added cooked rice to the bowls of soup as I was serving them, and topped it with some cheese and tortilla strips! Yummy!

Slow Cooker Taco Soup

Reviewed: Aug. 15, 2008

This was an awesome recipe!!!! I only used one can of beans (the hot kind), drained the corn, and used 1 1/2 packets of taco seasoning. I also used canned tomatoes packed with garlic. I didn't add any extra water because we like our soup thick. I topped it with cheddar/jack mix shredded cheese, sour cream, chopped raw onion, chopped serrano peppers, sliced avocado and hot tortilla chips! Delicious! The only thing I will change is to only use 1 can of tomatoes next time.

Cheesy Ramen Noodles

Reviewed: Aug. 12, 2008

I don't know how many years I've eaten this... and to find it on AllRecipes makes me feel a little better, LOL! My husband makes fun of me for eating it, but hey, when you have $10 to buy a weeks worth of groceries and you only have a dorm frig, this is some great stuff. I still eat it when I want an easy meal. I'm not a big fan of American single slices, so I like to add shredded cheddar. I also like to stir in an egg when the water is boiling... kind of makes an egg drop soup type dish. I lived next door to some students from Hong Kong who ate the same stuff, only they put cut up hot dogs in it too. Not a hot dog fan, but hey... if you like it!

I followed the suggestions of other reviewers and still had trouble with the burgers falling apart. They were still good though, and tasted much better than store-bought veggie burgers.

Grandpa's Classic Coney Sauce

Reviewed: Jun. 28, 2008

This was exactly what I was looking for!!! As other reviewers have mentioned, this is not chili. I omitted the sugar, used cider vinegar, and cut the mustard down to 1 Tbsp for personal preference. It doesn't look like you will have enough sauce when you first add everything to the meat, but after it cooks for a few minutes it's perfect. It's a tangy, slightly sweet, great sauce to spice up your hot dogs!

SO GOOD! Something to make for a special occasion because it is very fattening. It is easy to make, but looks and tastes like it is much more complicated and time-consuming. DELICIOUS!

Dark Molten Chocolate Cakes

Reviewed: Jun. 7, 2008

MMMMMMMMMM! I was craving chocolate and just made these cakes, and they are awesome! I followed the instructions exactly except that I used a 6-cup muffin pan instead of souffles. The recipe made exactly 6 cupcake sized cakes. I also only baked them for 10 mins and they came out perfectly with a gooey center. Will DEFINITELY make again!

Angel Lush with Pineapple

Reviewed: Jun. 7, 2008

Excellent recipe! I don't care much for pineapple, and this was still good! I made it for my brother (who loves pineapple), but the whole family loved it. Couldn't find a good selection of fresh berries, so I thawed some frozen raspberries and sprinkled some sugar on them while they thawed. I also put some of the raspberries on every layer over the pineapple mixture. I'm not sure why, but my cake didn't come out nearly as pretty as the one in the picture. The pineapple mixture ran out from between the layers, and even though it wasn't beautiful, it still tasted great!

Penne Pasta with Spinach and Bacon

Reviewed: Jun. 7, 2008

I made this for my mom for Mother's Day, and she really liked it. I thought it was a bit on the bland side, but she doesn't care for highly-seasoned foods. It was perfect for lunch on a warm day: more filling than just a salad, but not too heavy. Thanks for sharing this recipe!
