Creamed Chipped Beef On Toast

Reviewed: Oct. 15, 2009
My hubby always nagged me to make this. Growing up, my mom also used to refer to creamed chipped beef as SOS -- but it stood for something different (and not so nice). Thanks to her, I was dubious that "SOS" could taste good. But I finally caved and made this for dinner last week, and was so surprised how delicious it was! I actually had seconds and then thirds (the third serving is because I'm 8 months' pregnant and always hungry!). ;-) I was actually craving this again, so I made it last night. I had some extra English muffins, so we toasted those and served the beef over the muffins instead of regular toast. It was fantastic. Thank you for such a great, easy recipe! Once the baby gets here and I have limited time in the kitchen, I know this will be a meal I'll make often because it's so simple. Yum!

Lowcountry Shrimp and Cheese Grits

Reviewed: Oct. 15, 2009
This was AWESOME! My hubby wouldn't stop talking about it for days. He brought the leftovers to work, where he became quite popular after offering samples to his colleagues. Like others suggested, I also boiled the grits in a combo of broth and milk. I also tossed in with the shrimp a (drained) can of Rotel to give it a bit of a spicy kick. Since I couldn't find the garlic cheese, I added 1 cup of shredded pepper jack and 3/4 cup of shredded cheddar to the grits. Turned out wonderfully. Thanks for such a delicious recipe! Even my mother-in-law (who's quite the gourmet) wants the recipe after hearing my hubby go on and on about it. :-)

Basic Crepes

Reviewed: Aug. 19, 2009
This recipe is a keeper! I've never had such great results from a crepe recipe as I have from this one. I just mixed my wet ingredients, and then slowly whisked in my dry ingredients. Leftovers store well in the fridge, and taste just as great a day or two later. I put the leftover batter in a tupperware shaker and just gave it a good shake before I was ready to make another batch. Instead of oiling the pan (or using Pam/spray), I put a small amount of butter in a nonstick pan, swirled it around, and then wiped the excess out with a paper towel. The pan remained just oiled enough to make several crepes without making them too greasy.

Rich Chocolate Frosting

Reviewed: Aug. 12, 2009
I doubt words can adequately describe how incredible this frosting is! This is my second time making this recipe. Each time, I made the full recipe, figuring I'd just frost my cake really generously. This is, by far, the best frosting I've come across, in terms of spreading consistency. I dread icing the sides of cakes -- especially layer cakes, but this did the job beautifully. I used this recipe to frost David's Yellow Cake, and the two made a great combination, although the cake turned out a bit dry. I believe that this frosting was the cake's redeeming quality. I made this for my hubby's co-worker's birthday, and while I used the majority of the frosting on the cake, I did have some leftovers, which I scooped into a tupperware and gave to my hubby to take with him to work, figuring there were some frosting lovers out there who'd appreciate being able to spread the leftovers on their slices of cake. He told me that by that afternoon, the cake was gone, and the tupperware of frosting was being passed around the office, and folks were eating it by itself, with spoons. Guess it was a hit. Thanks for a great recipe! This will remain my go-to recipe, as far as cake frosting is concerned. :-)

David's Yellow Cake

Reviewed: Aug. 12, 2009
I followed the recipe exactly, and I thought the flavor and appearance of this cake were excellent. I was, however, a bit surprised by how dry the cake turned out, especially given the amount of butter in the recipe. I'll have to take another look at some of the comments, regarding how to make the cake more moist. I'd like to make this recipe again -- it surpasses box mixes by a long shot -- but I also feel I'll need to play around a bit in order to eliminate the dry, almost shortbread sort of texture.

Butter Bean Burgers

Reviewed: Jul. 20, 2009
Very good. I followed the recipe exactly. I let the burgers hang out in the fridge for about an hour before cooking - and they held together very well. I will make them again without a bun - they are tasty all on their own.

Old Bay® Shrimp Salad

Reviewed: Jun. 12, 2009
This is definitely the taste I was looking for in a shrimp salad. But let me warn you all out there - when making your sauce try it first with 1 teaspoon of lemon juice and taste - I found 2 teaspoons too much. The Old Bay could be cut down by 1/2 teaspoon too. I will make again!

Peanut Butter Haystacks

Reviewed: May 10, 2009
Very simple and suprisingly addictive. Sweet, salty and crunchy. My husband eats the entire batch within a day. Honestly, I can't make it often because it is dangerous to have around....you know what I mean?

Authentic Thousand Island Dressing

Reviewed: May 7, 2009
This dressing is delicious. I am not an egg fan though. If you love eggs in your salad you will flip over this recipe. I now make with out mixing in the eggs and it is perfect for me.

Sweeter Muffins

Reviewed: Mar. 12, 2009
I was about to submit this recipe. I made this for the first time when I was in the 7th grade, Home Ec class. They even have the same name. I've made them for 40 years now. They have always been a family favorite.

Beverly Hills Cheesecake

Reviewed: Mar. 11, 2009
I made this WITHOUT the sour cream topping as I knew I probably wouldn't like it (esp. after reading the reviews). Nice cheesecake, nothing truly special.

MmmMmm good! Loved it, loved it, loved it but I don't put oil in my cakes, I always use applesauce...and I added some orange zest for extra flavor. My family raved!

Mocha Cake I

Reviewed: Mar. 11, 2009
Yum, yum! I LOVE this cake - chocolate is one of my fave flavors...of course, when I make cakes, I use applesauce rather than oil, egg substitute for eggs, and fat free sour cream and/or puddings. My family is always fooled by the taste!

Brunch Enchiladas

Reviewed: Feb. 27, 2009
Very good. I cut the recipe in half, but added a bit more milk and one more egg so that I had enough sauce to cover tortilla's. I covered with foil for the first 50 minutes then added cheese and baked another few minutes. It was very good...thanks
