Fish Chowder

Reviewed: Oct. 20, 2009

Without changes, this is definitely NOT a 5-star recipe. And everyone that rated it a 5 star made tons of changes! I don't get that! Anyway, instead of a whopping 1/2 cup of flour, we pureed 2 cooked potatoes and 1/2 can of corn... then we we added the clam juice, we only had to add 3 tbsp on flour to it before mixing it in. Also, omitted mushrooms and added a can of corn when we dropped the fish. And used 2 cups fish stock, 1.5 cups chicken stock and 1/2 cup of cream. It does need a LOT more seasoning, so we doctored it up with salt, pepper, old bay and cayenne. I think worcestershire would give it a nice flavor and depth too. Thanks for the base, but be prepared to do some "tweaking".

I was not into the canned veggies. I think the sauce was OK.

Slow Cooker Chicken and Dumplings

Reviewed: Oct. 19, 2009

I was not a big fan of this. The dumplings barely came out cooked for my taste and I needed to add more seasoning.

I thought it was good. I did everything as the recipe stated but I cooked it in 2 round pans and frosted it like a cake.

Reunion Meatballs

Reviewed: Oct. 17, 2009

I followed the recipe exactly. It was pretty good. The meatballs themselves were tasty, but the sauce was a bit vinegary, I'll cut back on it next time. Also, the sauce was pretty thin, which was kinda dissapointing.Overall, it's good though. Thanks!

Roast Chicken with Rosemary

Reviewed: Oct. 16, 2009

We also stuffed this with lemon wedges, onion wedges, garlic cloves, and rosemary, and slathered it with olive oil, crushed garlic, and rosemary, put chunks of potato, parsnip, and carrots beneath it, and poured chicken stock over it, baking it for 1 and 1/2 hours. The skin was crisp and flavorful, the chicken was moist and delicious, and the potatoes, etc, were done perfectly. An amazing meal!

Eggplant Parmesan II

Reviewed: Oct. 15, 2009

I made this and it was just okay for me. It was the first time I ever ate eggplant, and I think I just didnt like the eggplant itself. I'm giving it 5 stars because my roommate and her friends loved it, and even asked me to give them the recipe. For me, I just think I'll stick with chicken.

Delicious Apple Sauce

Reviewed: Oct. 14, 2009

VERY delish. I reduced the amount of cinnamon and sugar, and drained some of the water off before putting in the blender for a few quick blends. It's really up to your own personal taste how much cinnamon and sugar you use...I had chopped up the apples instead of shredding them, leaving the applesauce chunky - PERFECT for my 16 month old learning how to use utensils! Very good on vanilla ice cream or all by itself.

Pumpkin Cookies V

Reviewed: Oct. 13, 2009

It was hard to rate this. I absolutely love pumpkin cookies (added a little more cinnamon then called for). The cookie recipe is good. But, the icing just did not come out well. And I found it just too sweet. I bet the cookies would taste yummy with some nuts in it...

Chili-Lime Chicken Kabobs

Reviewed: Oct. 13, 2009

This is one of my favorite dishes (the fiances too). I live in a condo and cannot have a grill. I basically use the marinade recipes for chicken tenders. I let it marinade in the fridge for about 1 hr and pan cook it. Usually serve it with some rice and cilantro. Mmmmm...

Jalapeno Poppers I

Reviewed: Oct. 13, 2009

My first attempt at Jalapeno Poppers came out great! Took a lot longer to prep than I expected due to the seeding process. I used jalapenos I grew at home and they were smaller than normal so I only used half the filling and half of the cheddar. I think that something was missing. It was spicy, but maybe if I dipped it in something it would've been better. A friend tasted them and suggested dipping these in warmed raspberry jelly before eating. I'll have to try that next time. Thanks for a yummy recipe!

Dutch Apple Pie with Oatmeal Streusel

Reviewed: Oct. 12, 2009

This is a GREAT pie! I made my own crust and I used the suggestions and brushed with an egg wash and put it into the fridge while i was preparing the apples. I did not bake it. It really made a difference. I also cooked it covered for almost 1 hour. I like my apples really soft and it cooks away the liquid. Also, I baked it on my lowest rack in a glass pan and the crust was perfect.

SO good - only used 3 eggs, substituted one cup of the white sugar with brown sugar, and put some chopped up frozen peanut butter cups on top that I had left over from another recipe. SO SO good - didn't last long!

Meat Loaf Pie

It was ok. I used the cheesy quiche crust recipe on here (which is fabulous) I added an extra egg, doubled the worcestershire and ketchup, and added 2 Tbs bread crumbs. Only had a little bit of corn, so I added peas in too. Might make again.

Absolutely the BEST Rich and Creamy Blue Cheese Dressing Ever!

Reviewed: Oct. 9, 2009

This is pretty impressive. You MUST use a cheese that you would eat with crackers too. This i much better 24-48 hours after you mix it. I did a double batch and used half to go with buffalo wings and the other half the next day for a wedge salad. I did have to thin it a little with about 1-2 tablespoons of hot water. It did not alter the taste in any way.

Key Lime Pie VII

Reviewed: Oct. 9, 2009

This was a fantastic recipe that was really easy. I did have to bake my pie for a bit longer. I used whipped cream with a touch of sugar to top. Dont go too sweet with the whipped cream it takes away from the tangy lime taste.
