Simple Carnitas

Reviewed: Dec. 2, 2009
I fixed this for dinner last night and it was so nice.I put it in my cast iron dutch oven and it got done way sooner than I thought it would. Meat was so tender and shredded so easily I had it on the table in no time. Loved the oranges in the stock and the fact it wasn't over seasoned while cooking. Made barbequed pork sands with it last night and will use the rest 'crisped up' as you say. Thanks for a really nice recipe, Ken. Will make it again.

Mrs. Sigg's Snickerdoodles

Reviewed: Nov. 29, 2009
I made these today and could not figure out why I only had 3 dozen? Found my hubby was snitching them off the cooling rack when my back was turned! We both give them 5 stars!

Thanksgiving Leftovers Croquettes

Reviewed: Nov. 29, 2009
I was really looking forward to saying "Goodbye" to my left overs from Thanksgiving and this worked out perfectly! I followed recipe as written and it came out GREAT! Nice and crunchy outside and tasty inside. Served with the rest of my pearl onions and peas and my hubby was very happy! Will do this again next turkey day. Thanks, Pam!

Deluxe Mashed Potatoes

Reviewed: Nov. 15, 2009
These potatoes were great. We used Michigan white potatoes and left the skin on. We also subbed French onion dip for the sour cream and added diced onions, green peppers and real bacon bits. Finally, we baked it uncovered to get it a little crispier on the top.

Easiest Pot Roast Ever

Reviewed: Nov. 8, 2009
I wasn't impressed at first because of how tough the meat was. But, we ate it anyway and forgot to turn the slow cooker off. A few hours later (total of about 10 hours, 4 on low, 6 on high), it came out excellent and I couldn't wait to have leftovers for the next day. :) I guess I'm still learning my settings on my slow cooker. But, overall, a great recipe.

Cranberry Kuchen

Reviewed: Nov. 8, 2009
This is a very good coffeecake that nicely plays up the flavor of fresh cranberries. Though it's a yeast recipe, it's not in the least intimidating and is very simple to assemble. This recipe is a keeper. Give it a try!

Thai Chicken Cabbage Soup

Reviewed: Oct. 23, 2009
Followed suggestions of other posters and added garlic, cinnamon, ginger, celery salt, squash, +1 cup water. Had to use up some chix thighs so they added great flavor to the stock. Terrific soup but will add even more liquid next time to thin out.

Made for my darling wife for Sweetest Day - Excellent result for my first ever apple pie. I added cinnamon & nutmeg but everyone was pleased. Even looked as good as its picture from the cover of my allrecipes cookbook. Thanks for the recipe.

Honey White Bread

One of our favorite bread recipes. We never add the vitamin C or ginger and it's delicious.

Slow Cooker Pork

Reviewed: Oct. 16, 2009
I didn't add as much water as the recipe called for - just a splash to coat the meat and cooked for 8 hours. I pulled the pork 5-6 hours into it. I layered tortillas, the pulled pork, spanish rice, refried beans and lots of cheese. I broiled it on low for a couple of minutes (to melt the cheese) and topped it off with lettuce, tomato, onion, olives, and diced jalepeno to make a mexican pizza. It's a new family favorite!

Slow Cooker Carnitas

Reviewed: Oct. 13, 2009
Really excellent & simple using a 6.75 bone-in pork shoulder. Following some posted reviews I cut the roast into 4-5 large hunks and tripled the spice mixture except for salt & cinnamon. Was able to spoon off the excess fat and the carnitas were juicy & flavorful. So far used to make fajitas, enchiladas & tortilla soup.

Savory Kale, Cannellini Bean, and Potato Soup

Reviewed: Oct. 13, 2009
I'm the first reviewer to make this recipe exactly as written, and it is delicious. I'm sure the additions noted would also be good, but as-is, this is a hearty, healthy soup.

Guacamole

Nice and onion-y. Great fresh taste with the cilantro. The pinch of cayenne adds flavor but not heat.

Ronaldo's Beef Carnitas

Reviewed: Oct. 11, 2009
Smelled great while cooking, but the meat was very difficult to shred and had no flavor. None. We followed the recipe exactly. What to do with the leftovers? I'll probably mix the meat with BBQ sauce for sandwiches.

Marinated Pork Chops

Reviewed: Sep. 29, 2009
Juicy with good flavor. I let the chops marinate for two days, and the ingredients did not overwhelm or toughen the pork.
