Coffee Nudge

Reviewed: Aug. 20, 2009
This is one of my favorite "dessert" drinks and can be quite special for company prepared tableside. First, run a little lemon around the rim of a brandy snifter that will take the heat. Dip the rim in sugar; pour in the brandy and liqueurs; set aflame so that the sugar is melted around the top of the glass; pour in coffee and top with whipped cream.

Pork Chops German Style

Reviewed: Aug. 19, 2009
This is a recipe that has been in my family for many years. My mother-in-law had a German background but lived in Louisiana the first part of her marriage. She said they "passed the mustard" over the pork chops. Sometimes, I add an extra can of chicken with rice soup so that there will be plenty of "gravy" and serve with rice. So good!

My Country Style Steak

I'm a vegetarian who cooks by "taste." This recipe was a life-saver! It's simple, and my husband and daughter love it. My husband asks for it at least once a week.

Jay's Signature Pizza Crust

Reviewed: May 8, 2009
This is a great recipe after I figured out what worked best for me. First, I mixed everything in the bread machine like any other dough. I split the dough in half but we like a thick crust and so no more splitting the dough. The first half, I baked on a pizza stone on the bottom shelf but will not do that again as it was tough. I refrigerated the second half and removed from the refrigerator, generously oiled a small iron skillet, sprinkled with cornmeal and "tossed" the dough by letting the weight of the dough shape the circle. (Just hold by the edge and work around in a circle until the right size.) I placed it in the pan with a piecrust edge. The crust rose on top of the warm stove while the oven was heating. Then, I put on the toppings, drizzled a little extra olive oil around the outside crust and baked on the middle rack. This was great! We want be ordering anymore Pizza Hut pizza! I don't see a need for preheating the skillet or prebaking the crust. This is a really good crust and I look forward to trying bread sticks and cinnamon sticks with it. I might try a little more sugar in the crust next time - possibly natural brown sugar, a little Italian seasoning and garlic as some suggested although, my husband said that it is perfect the way it is. Thanks for a great recipe, Jay!

Japanese Fruit Cake II

Reviewed: Dec. 26, 2008
My mother-in-law made Japanese Fruit Cake every year for Christmas and this tastes very much like hers. My husband was very pleased. I had a lot of leftover icing so, next time, I may make 2 2-layer cakes and give one as a gift or serve one for Thanksgiving and one for Christmas. It makes a very large cake.

Artichoke Bruschetta

I added 1 clove of minced garlic and a seeded Roma tomato and served cold with sliced, toasted French bread. I was prepared to serve hot bruschetta but my husband liked it so well cold that he stopped the process!

The Amazing Swedish Meatball

Reviewed: Dec. 26, 2008
The meatballs were very good. I used my own sauce which is not Swedish at all. Thin a can of cream of mushroom soup with your favorite barbecue sauce until it is the right consistency. No one can ever guess what ingredients are in the sauce. Thanks for the meatball recipe. I may even try it with marinara sauce.

Old-Fashioned Chocolate Fudge

Reviewed: Dec. 14, 2008
I am 60 years old and never made "cooked" fudge as I grew up on the marshmallow kind. I always liked this type better but was not sure that I could do it. It is so easy with a good candy thermometer and very good candy. First batch was great and second batch is on the stove.

Cheese Ring

Reviewed: Dec. 10, 2008
Good recipe but I tweaked it. I used the whole green onion and instead of the jelly recommended, I used red pepper jelly and brushed it on the outside and filled the center with it. It gave it a nice Christmasy look with the red and green together and it tasted divine. Used it for a small gathering of just five friends and we ate almost the whole thing:)

Pepper Jelly Appetizer

Reviewed: Dec. 5, 2008
My mother has been serving this for years so I decided to take it to a get together. How easy is it?! A block of cream cheese on a plate topped with prepared pepper jelly. I was a little unsure when I first set in out in front of the guests...one or two actually looked at me like I was nuts, but after they tried it they were hooked. The next party, they asked if I'd bring two:)

Jerk Chicken and Pasta

Reviewed: Nov. 18, 2008
This tasted like something out of a restaurant! I made a few changes. I did not use jerk paste (couldn't find it). I used a jerk seasoning rub from the site, used a portion, and added a bit of olive oil to it to make a paste. Instead of using chicken, I broiled 4 tilapia coated with olive oil on both sides, then sprinkled with salt and the homemade jerk seasoning. For the cream, I substituted coconut cream. That "made" the recipe for me. It went over well with company and I love it.

World's Best Lasagna

Reviewed: Nov. 18, 2008
BETTER THEN STOUFFER'S! It's been about 5 years since I've had a red-sauce lasagna. I'm a current college student in born and raised in the deep south, and if I can make it... YOU SURE CAN TOO!! 4 of my friends and 2 of my roomates helped me gobble it up. I just changed a few things: Ground Turkey and Turkey sausage (I don't eat pork/red meat. Thus why I haven't had lasagna in forever!). I agree with other reviewers: FENNEL IS A MUST! Unfortunately, I didn't have any. The Italian Seasoning I used had it in it, so I doubled the spices. Oh it was incredible! I'm making this at least once a month because I know I can make 2 pans of it and it still be great. Try this recipe!!

Calico Beans

Reviewed: Nov. 10, 2008
I only gave 4 stars because I made adjustments to the recipe. I only used half the amount of brown sugar and it was still a tad sweet for my taste, but the vinegar helped to cut it. I also used red wine vinegar because I didn't have any white wine vinegar. I used ground turkey and let is simmer for 1 1/2 hours on the stove instead of putting it in the over. This created more juices so I served it over brown rice and it was a hit. Not the prettiest dish in the world, but tasty none the less. Thanks.

Honey Chicken Stir-Fry

Reviewed: Nov. 4, 2008
Perhaps a 3 1/2? Maybe I did something wrong but mine came out without a strong flavor and not too different than other stir-fry's that I've tried. Of course, I used my own broccoli mixture (broccoli, carrots, sugar snap peas, onion)...and it was the first time I've ever used cornstarch.
