Bran Flakes Muffins with Raisins

Reviewed: Nov. 25, 2009
These were delicious and a big hit with the whole family from my picky hubby to my food-snob 3-year-old, but I changed it a bit, which is why I only gave four stars. Instead of shortening, I used butter, I added 1 tsp cinnamon and 1/2 cup extra raisins because the recipe looked a touch bland, and I used a potato masher to crush up all the bran flakes before adding the rest of the ingredients.

Snickerdoodles II

Reviewed: Nov. 20, 2009
Used butter flavored Crisco, which I think lent a weird sour/chemically aftertaste. Never used it before & wanted to try it before holiday baking ensues. The texture was great, though they didn't spread very much. Probably will try another recipe next time.

Broccoli Beef I

Reviewed: Nov. 16, 2009
Edible, but not great. It's pretty quick to put together. I added in a can of Chinese mixed vegetables and some grated carrot for color.

Buttery Soft Pretzels

Reviewed: Nov. 15, 2009
Yum. Made these for lunch one day, anticipating that I wouldn't be able to stop eating them. At least I saved calories by not eating them in addition to lunch =) These were good. Melted some butter and tried them with salt and mustard, and also with cinnamon sugar. Also good cold, although the sweetness is more noticeable. Not as chewy as I might have liked, but easy. I would suggest rolling them the width of a dime or less as they do rise some.

Oven Roasted Greek Potatoes

Reviewed: Nov. 13, 2009
Made changes here too. Didn't have marjoram, wine or dressing. I went heavy on the lemon and that was the predominant flavor. Cooked at 400 for 45 minutes. Enjoyed the texture alot. Will make again with Italian flavors.

Chicken and Dumplings III

Reviewed: Nov. 9, 2009
This was much better than expected! I used 3 pieces of boneless breast chicken, and I put two chicken bullion cubes in with the water. I only had two cans cream of chicken which looked odd at first but ended up being creamy thick and delicious. I added in black pepper, salt, and all seasoning and next time I will leave out the salt. I had mixed vegetables on the side, but mixing them in would really add a little something. The biscuits I used were Pillsbury Grands and I didn't have room in the pot to put in all of them. Overall, I will definitely make this again! The boyfriend absolutely loved it!

Pumpkin Bread

Reviewed: Nov. 4, 2009
DIVINE! I followed the recipe to a T, and it was awesome. I made it as a birthday cake, in 9-inch rounds, and frosted it with the recipe here called Cream Cheese Frosting II- Perfection!

Sweet Potato Gnocchi

Reviewed: Oct. 28, 2009
I subbed butternut squash for the sweet potatoes, and just put some butter and romano cheese on it when it was still hot. Delicious, melt-in-your-mouth goodness.

All American Apple Pie

Reviewed: Oct. 19, 2009
Was this recipe easy? YES! I followed it to a T. Was it tasty? Mostly. Was it what I expected? Not a bit. The filling was dry after baking- just cooked apples and spices, inside an odd, goopy, slightly salty crust that never crisped-up like a pie crust. Not bad, really, just not great.

Easy Apple Cinnamon Muffins

Reviewed: Oct. 19, 2009
I made this recipe for my two toddlers for breakfast, so we skipped the crumb topping. Also, we cannot do dairy here, so I subbed apple juice for the milk. I also added 1/2 cup ground flax seed meal. I filled the cups 2/3's full, and the recipe made 12 muffins. They were very small, but delicious and fluffy.

Pumpkin Fudge

Reviewed: Oct. 17, 2009
AMAZING! I followed the advice of a few reviews the first time I made it, and reduced the amount of sugar- BAD CHOICE! It was sticky goop that never set up. Delicious goop, but not fudge. It sounded so amazing that I couldn't give up. I tried again a couple days later, and followed the recipe to a T. PERFECTION! It's so sweet, so rich, and so pumpkiny! My sister is the eternal fudge critic, and even SHE raved about it. This is definitely becoming a permanent fixture in our holiday season!

Zippy Chicken Corn Chowder

Reviewed: Oct. 5, 2009
Hmm...it's pretty good, but a bit on the bland side (weird, for something with "zippy" in the title!) If I make it again, I'll probably go a little heavier on the hot pepper sauce and add pepper. Still, a nice basic fall or winter soup recipe that is suitable for a wide variety of appetites.

Mexican Casserole

Reviewed: Aug. 29, 2009
Yummy! A great dish to take to a potluck, as it's easy and quick to make, and relatively inexpensive. It's also easy to adjust to your preferences with different add-ins. As most other people did, I also added quite a bit more salsa. I'm not sure how well it would have worked the other way, but it came out very nicely this way!

Chocolate Chip Cookie Dough + Cupcake = The BEST Cupcake. Ever.

Reviewed: Aug. 6, 2009
I was looking for a gooey cookie dough center; I cooked these for the recommended 16 minutes, the cookie dough had started to cook. They were good, but not gooey. I will try again & cook a minute or 2 longer.

Chip Chicken Lollipops

Reviewed: Jun. 14, 2009
I was really excited to try this recipe, although a little skeptical. After reading all of the reviews I decided to go for it and it came out fantastic! I did follow the advice of others and I seasoned the chicken before dipping them in the egg mixture and chips. Make sure you crunch up the chips into really small pieces so they stick to the chicken. I put mine on a plate and covered it with a tea towel and used a meat cleaver to do the smashing! I also made mine into strips and let out the skewers. I can't wait to try different chip flavours! Cape Cod Originals are good for a basic!

Ziti Chicken and Broccoli

Reviewed: Jun. 8, 2009
This was so good and easy to make. I did make some substitutions--> whipping cream instead of heavy (what was on hand), minced garlic instead of hand chopping it, and I added a lot of extra cornstarch and I mixed it with water before adding it in so it wouldn't be lumpy. I used chicken legs and thighs and cooked them in some olive oil instead of breading them. I also used linguine and it came out delish!

Shrimp Fettucine Alfredo

Reviewed: Jun. 1, 2009
It was amazing! I made it for my boyfriend, his brother and his girlfriend and they all loved it. I cooked the shrimp first in garlic removed it from heat so it wouldn't over cook while making the sauce. I did use more Parmesan because it wasn't thickening like I wanted, but once it started to cool it did thicken (a little too much lol, so I added milk). I will make this again indefinitely. Recipes are guidelines, experiment!
