Rocky Road Squares

Reviewed: Nov. 22, 2009
Other than not putting in the nuts, I made these as written. I guess I am in the minority on these - while they were very easy, the coconut was very "squishy" for lack of a better word and the sweetened condensed milk was way too sweet in these (and I like sweet!)

Slow Cooker Buffalo Chicken Sandwiches

Reviewed: Nov. 15, 2009
This was super easy and very good. I used about a half a bottle of a non-hot wing sauce and used an entire dry packet of the hidden valley ranch dressing mix. I also added two "to go" packages of Dave's Sassy Barbeque Sauce - they probably have about a tablespoon each in the packages - to the mixture. Put this on a toasted roll. It was SO good! Thanks so much for the recipe - I'll be making it again and sharing it with my (grown) kids.

Fettucine in Creamy Mushroom and Sage Sauce

Reviewed: Oct. 25, 2009
The only changes I made to this (other than doubling it!) was use farfalle pasta, grated in a bit of nutmeg and used two 6-oz bags of baby spinach... delicious! It went together very easily and quickly after all the chopping was done. Hubby wanted to help and he ended up doing just about everything (*I* did the chopping, of course-- he always wants to do the fun part!). I'm really looking forward to having the leftovers for lunch tomorrow!

Broccoli Cheese Soup V

Reviewed: Oct. 12, 2009
I roasted fresh broccoli in the oven, then added it to the warmed chicken broth. I also used all freshly grated monterey jack cheese, and added garlic powder and celery salt. I also added about a tablespoon of mascarpone cheese (since it was about to expire) at the end. This was SO good! Can't wait to make again. Thanks so much for sharing this recipe.

German Apple Cake I

Reviewed: Oct. 7, 2009
Really, really good cake - especially right out of the oven! I used splenda for the sugar, half wheat flour/half white flour and grated half of the apples/chopped the other half. This was very easy to make and has a great taste. Thanks for sharing!

Mushroom Pork Chops

Reviewed: Sep. 28, 2009
I found this recipe very bland....Added extra garlic and fresh thyme and still felt like something was missing....it needed one more "layer" of flavor....The chops, however, were very moist.

Mushroom Orzo

Reviewed: Sep. 18, 2009
Um....could we say super yum! I used chicken stock in lieu of water....dried parsley instead of fresh (didn't have any)...and 1/2 chopped onion replaced pearl onions (again, didn't have any)...Very pleasantly pleased....Wish there was a way to cut down on the butter...Any recommendations welcome...

Ratatouille

Reviewed: Sep. 2, 2009
Absolutely delicious!! What a wonderful way to use my summery, garden veggies. I followed recipe to the tee with the exception of omitting the green peppers (I didn't have any), I used vineripe yellow tomatoes, and I sprinkled grated Italian Blend cheese on it layer in addition to the grated Parm. I served with Salmon but definitely substantial enough for an entire meal. I did not have any "soupiness" that others described....

Chicken with Asparagus and Roasted Red Peppers

Reviewed: Aug. 23, 2009
I served this dish over sun-dried tomato cous-cous. Changes I made: Rubbed the chicken breasts with a poultry rub and sauteed that one side before placing in the broth. These lent to more flavor, better texture, and a huge improvement in visual appeal. I also had to use 2 cups of broth (made from bouillion cubes)...had I not, the liquid would have completely boiled down. I added it as necessary. I also added extra minced garlic, 1 tbl of dried basil, and 1 tbl crushed red pepper flakes. Additional comments: LOVED the balsamic vinegar. Since it was not specified in the recipe, I added it on top of the chicken/asparagus after I had plated it and then added the cheese. I thought the balsamic vinegar added a wonderful "layer" to the flavors. We will make this again.

Betty Baker's Strawberry Salsa

Reviewed: Jul. 2, 2009
Wow! This was really good. I did use a bit less of the jalapeno peppers (personal taste) but it was still really great. Good to make for a crowd to use as an appetizer. Thanks for sharing!

Chewy Coconut Cookies

Reviewed: May 12, 2009
YUM-O....I thought these would be really plain...which was so wrong - they were just sweet enough & just enough coconut flavor...Also, when I first saw the mixed batter, I thought that we would be making only a few cookies....or just a bunch of small ones....One tsp or so really spreads out...making a cookie that is about 2 inches wide...My chocolate chip cooking loving husband really really loved these, too....Thank you & will make again Very simple.

French Leek Pie

Reviewed: May 1, 2009
This was really very easy to make, and the results were absolutely delicious! Since some of the prior reviews indicated that this could have used more filling, I used 4 leeks which I sauteed in about a tablespoon of bacon fat. I didn't have enough time to cook bacon to add to the pie, but I'm definitely doing that next time-- that would turn this into a 10-star dish! I kept the amounts of the other ingredients the same, and added a dash each of thyme and garlic powder. I kept back about 1/3 cup of the cheese and sprinkled it on top. This was nicely browned by the 30 minute mark and smelled like heaven... I can't wait to make this again!

Middle Eastern Turkey Dogs

Reviewed: Apr. 29, 2009
I tweaked these just a bit to suit my family's tastes-- I used only about 1/4 tsp of cinnamon and added some garlic powder and onion powder. Also, the package of turkey was slightly larger than one pound-- it was 20 ounces. I mixed up the meat and spices and let it sit for about 30 mins, then made small patties out of it (hubby said they looked like sliders) and cooked them in a non-stick skillet. Tasty, especially with some tahini dressing I had on hand! I'll definitely be making this again-- always looking for a way to eat less red meat and this was *so* quick & easy.

Mozzarella and Tomato Appetizer

This didnt go over so well at Easter. I had over half the plate left. They all opted for the more fattening appetizers. It could just be my family. :/

Too Much Chocolate Cake

Reviewed: Apr. 13, 2009
I too, like the others reviewing, thought this was a good cake but prefer the Hersheys Chocolate Cake. I put the satiny glaze on it. I doubled that recipe. Thought it needed more icing. Im sure I'll make this cake again since its so easy. Had too many pieces of this on Easter Sunday. :-/

Spaghettini Chicken

Reviewed: Apr. 8, 2009
I found this recipe to be very bland. I used 2 cups of broth & can't imagine using more...I even tried to thicken it up with cornstarch but it was still very liquidy. I used fresh basil and 3 handfuls of spinach but other than that, I followed the recipe to the tee. Next time, I will season the chicken, add more onion, add green pepper, and less chicken broth. It was very attractive with the wilted spinach. I will make this again with more seasoning.

Goat Cheese and Spinach Turkey Burgers

Reviewed: Apr. 4, 2009
Very yummy but I did a lot to the recipe to make it the way I envisioned it tasting best...and it worked out well! 99% Fat Free Turkey (1 lb) made 4 good sized burgers...I mixed 2 tablespoons of feta, garlic sauteed spinach (1/4 cup), 1/2 tsp garlic powder, 2 splashes of Worchester sauce, 1 egg, 1/2 tsp ground pepper, and 1/4 cup italian bread. Served with tomato, bacon slices, bibb lettuce, whole grain mustard, pickles, and mayo. My hubby has never had good turkey burgers before and really loved this. Will definitely make again but I would imagine that without my additions, the recipe would have been pretty plain - thus my rating of the recipe.

Oatmeal Chocolate Chip Cookies I

Reviewed: Mar. 24, 2009
The taste of these were fantastic. However, I did have to add about 1/2 cup more flour to get them to rise a bit higher, cause that's how I like them. I also used butter in place of the shortening and added a touch of vanilla. These were very buttery tasting and very crispy without breaking apart all over the place. I also baked mine for quite a bit fewer minutes (9-10) but it may have been the size cookie I was making. I think this is one of those "you can add anything to it" recipes - different chocolate chips, more or less sugar, different flavorings, etc. Thanks for the great recipe.

Bourbon Whiskey BBQ Sauce

Reviewed: Mar. 4, 2009
Wow. This was very flavorful. It turns out I didn't have tomato paste so I diced up a tomato and roughly mashed it up with some corn starch. My hot sauce of choice was Sriracha sauce (a medium spicy sauce with a lot of garlic in it so feel free to tweak the recipe).
