Pineapple Upside-Down Cake VII

Reviewed: Oct. 4, 2007
The recipe was excellent. Using the pineapple juice in the cake mix was a very smart idea. I used yellow cake mix instead of white and used a metal baking pan instead of a skillet. I think next time I make it, I'll put more cherries on it (requested by my hubby).

Barbie's Tuna Salad

Reviewed: Jul. 22, 2007
This is a very unusual tasting recipe. I liked it a lot as did my family. I scaled down the mayo and parsley and added a bit more dill weed. I also used real onions as I don't like the flakes. I also added pecans and pineapple bits. This is a super tasty recipe. Thanks for sharing. I make it all the time and people are always asking for the recipe.

Grandma's Sloppy Joes

Reviewed: Jul. 21, 2007
I thought this was a very good recipe. I only gave it a 4 star rating as I did have to add some more spices. I used ground turkey instead of beef. I also added about half a tablespoon of minced garlic and half a pkg. of sloppy joe seasoning. It was very good. The cloves gave it a very distinct taste. I liked it a lot. I will definately make this again! Thanks for sharing.

Quick and Easy Alfredo Sauce

Reviewed: Apr. 13, 2007
This recipe is absolutely wonderful! I used fat free cream chees, 2% milk, and low fat parmesean. I also added crawfish tails, shrimp, and crab meat (not imitation). I cut back on the milk some as I didn't want it too runny. This recipe is definately a keeper at my house! Thanks for sharing.

Tiramisu Layer Cake

Reviewed: Feb. 28, 2007
I made this cake for my office and it was gone before 11:00 a.m. After reading some other reviews, I also decided on two coffee layers and one plain and i doubled the coffee. I haven't had much luck with layer cakes in the past, but this one turned out beautifully. Any imperfections are hidden by the oh so soft and creamy icing. The presentation is worth the limited amount of effort that goes into it. The only downside to the cake is the price. I only had 2 or 3 of the ingredients in my pantry. On the bright side though, I can make another one anytime I want:)

Colleen's Slow Cooker Jambalaya

Reviewed: Feb. 15, 2007
I've been looking for variations on slow cooker recipes when I came across this one, and thought I'd give it a go. I tweaked it a bit to meet my south Mississippi taste buds. Here are the changes I made: I used crawfish tails instead of shrimp and I didn’t wait till the last 30 minutes to add them. I used more cayenne and Cajun seasoning than it called for, and dumped in a ton of minced garlic. I buy pre-chopped frozen onions and I found an onion pack that had celery and bell peppers chopped in it to so I used that instead of all of the fresh veggies. And I left out the thyme. I threw it all together and invited a friend over to test it out. We stuffed outselves silly. This is a wonderful, easy, and very filling meal. Two thumbs up!

Honey Baked Chicken II

Reviewed: Jan. 14, 2007
I was really surprised with this recipe. Needed something to do with leg quarters and came across this recipe. Had everything on hand and I have to admit, this was absolutely delicious. Added a special black and red pepper combination and cayenne just to give it an extra kick. Removed from pan as soon as it was done and it was tender, moist with a very crisp skin..Excellent and easy dish.

Ham Bone Soup

Reviewed: Jan. 10, 2007
This was the weakest recipe I've tried yet from this site. Maybe I used too much onion, maybe I didn't cook it long enough. I won't probably won't try it again. (Although I used a honey-baked ham...which might have something to do with it...)

New Year's Day Black-Eyed Peas

Reviewed: Jan. 1, 2007
This was my first time to cook black-eyed peas, and my husband (who doesn't like black-eyed peas) loved it! I added two cans of un-pureed Rotel tomatoes for spice. I'll cook this again...and not just on New Year's Day!

Fabulous Fried Cabbage

Reviewed: Jan. 1, 2007
This was my first time to cook cabbage, and this recipe was easy to follow. I agree with the others that this is not "fried" but steamed cabbage. Next time I will use less broth for a crisper, more stir-fried taste/texture.

Roasted Sweet Potatoes & Onions

Reviewed: Jan. 1, 2007
I didn't have amaretto, so I used 3 tbsp (or so) of brown sugar and tossed with onion and sweet potatoes in large bowl. Next time I will use less onion. But overall my family loved it!

Grandma's Gingersnap Cookies

Reviewed: Dec. 31, 2006
These had a great flavor. We compared them to a molasses cookie recipe and they taste very similar but with the added bite of ginger and not quite as sweet. I liked them. The dough is a bit sticky, so when rolling them, it helps to have a bowl of water waiting to dip you fingers. Somehow, this wetting of your fingers keeps the dough from sticking to you.

Cranberry Pistachio Biscotti

Reviewed: Dec. 31, 2006
These are PERFECT biscotti. The other recipe I've used is (I guess) a classic Italian biscotti and uses no butter/oil, so it's pretty hard. Perfect for dipping but very difficult to eat otherwise. These, however, are perfect with or without coffee/tea. I also love the fact that the oil used is olive oil...it keeps the ingredients true to origin of the cookie!

Chewy Coconut Cookies

Reviewed: Dec. 31, 2006
This recipe is super easy and really refreshing. I think maybe the only thing that would top it off would be to add toffee bits. Although, if I did that I might degrease the sugar a bit. Yummy cookie!

Cranberry Pistachio Biscotti

Reviewed: Dec. 19, 2006
This an excellent recipe. I was a first time biscotti maker, and I had researched many recipes and techniques. My final choice was between this recipe and an America's Test Kitchen recipe; I went with this one for my first batch because it looked so easy (no egg separating) and relatively healthy; I made with almonds as I could not find shelled pistachios. The first batch my dough was extremely runny and sticky, and spread a lot in the oven. They cracked a bit with slicing after cooling 10 minutes but tasted fantastic, great texture. After more research the next night, I made some adjustments, the most important of which was sifting then measuring the flour. I also upped cranberries to a cup and cut almonds back to a cup. This batch was much less runny and sticky, easy to mold into gorgeous loaves. I cooled for 15-20 minutes and this batch turned out picture perfect (no breaks) and just as tasty. Fantastic simple recipe. I'll be making my 3rd batch (for christmas gifts) tonight. Can't wait to tinker with other fruits and flavorings.

Quick and Easy Chicken Noodle Soup

Reviewed: Dec. 14, 2006
My husband loves this recipe, but I think it's too salty. Perhaps next time I prepare this, I'll use low-sodium chicken broth? I also added one can of condensed cream of celery soup (but nixed the chopped celery).
