Spiced Pumpkin Seeds

Reviewed: Oct. 29, 2009

Well, I am sure they would have been great, however, I fell asleep while they were in the oven, so they ended up cooking about 1.5 hours and were def burnt. Oh well. I will try again next year.

Portobello Penne Pasta Casserole

Reviewed: Oct. 29, 2009

Very interesting and different recipe. I love pasta, so I thought it was worth a shot. I halved the butter, used whole wheat penne, skim milk and olive oil instead of vegetable....just to make it a little healthier. I also added a can of tomatoes because I wanted more veg. I was skeptical of the soy sauce, but it made the dish. The only thing was it was a little bland. I think next time I will spice up the sauce a little with some crushed red pepper and maybe even garlic salt. Thanks for a recipe I can build on.

Banana Crumb Muffins

Reviewed: Oct. 29, 2009

Just took these out of the oven and they are amazing! I added a dash of cinnamon, nutmeg, and vanilla, but other than that, followed the recipe. Such a great recipe to use again and again.

Garlic Angel Hair Pasta

Reviewed: Oct. 29, 2009

This was a nice hot meal and so quick and easy to fix. I used minced garlic from the jar and spiral pasta. I thought this needed some kick though and could have used a healthy dose of cayenne or crushed red pepper as well. Not bad, but I thought it was too bland for me.

Kendra's Maid-Rite Sandwiches

Reviewed: Oct. 27, 2009

This was a great little sandwich. It was similar to a sloppy joe without all the tomato saucey taste and spices. My husband said he liked this better than a sloppy joe sandwich and even went back for seconds. It was a bit dry though starting out so I added some beef broth and let it simmer until the liquid was gone, twenty minutes. No other changes. I'd eat this again, it was pretty good.

Sesame Beef Bites

Reviewed: Oct. 27, 2009

Pretty tasty, and easy as well. I used a top sirloin steak because it was on sale... added some soy sauce to the marinade. It would have been better if I marinaded for longer, but I only had about 20 minutes.

Pumpkin Cake II

Reviewed: Oct. 27, 2009

While this turned out very pretty we all thought it rather bland tasting. I made this several days ago and had to toss the rest of the cake (over half) since it didn't get eaten, a rarity at this house. I left the nuts out, but that didn't affect the cake enough to alter my rating. Sorry this just didn't work for us.

Peanut Butter Frosting II

Reviewed: Oct. 23, 2009

I had to add quite a bit more milk to get the desired texture. I also adapted by adding a few more ingredients. Your recipe was good though. I love anything with peanut butter in it! Thanks for sharing.

I was really skeptical. It doesn't seem like these ingredients would "bake" but they did! The best key lime pie I have ever made at home. Thanks for a great recipe!

Slow Cooker Pulled Pork

Reviewed: Oct. 22, 2009

This was yummy! I am not sure what the root beer does, because I couldnt really taste it, and I am sure the recipe is completely different depending on what bbq sauce you use, but I will be making pulled pork this way again. We used head country original sauce.

Broccoli Cheese Soup V

Reviewed: Oct. 19, 2009

Amazing soup! I never thought it would be so easy to make broccoli cheese soup that taste like it came from a restaurant. I used half cheddar and half velveeta, I also halved the whole recipe.... it still made about 6 servings of soupd.

Gourmet Mushroom Risotto

Reviewed: Oct. 18, 2009

I love risotto, and this was one of my best attempts at recreating a risotto I had in Los Angeles on my first really nice date (hahaha). I had to cook mine for much longer, as the broth wouldn't soak up and the rice was still a bit hard. It also took me about 30 minutes just to cut all those mushrooms (I cut mine into smaller pieces and started with whole ones, not pre-sliced). I plan on making this again fairly soon (this time with pre-sliced 'shrooms, though)!

Chicken Pot Pie I

Reviewed: Oct. 14, 2009

This was insanely simple to do. My husband said it was perfect and gave this 10 stars. The Hungry Teen had seconds. I thought it was rather bland and needed more seasoning. I did use 2 cans of soup 1 cream of celery and 1 cream of chicken with herbs. Instead of two cans of veggies I used 1 large can of large cut mixed veggies. So easy this is one I'll give to the kids as they move out it's a great starter recipe.

Ginger Glazed Mahi Mahi

This was ok. My glaze wasn't really a glaze. I think next time I'll add less vinegar and add more ginger. I couldn't taste it. But it's a good starter recipe.

Chocolate Chocolate Chip Cookies I

Reviewed: Oct. 13, 2009

This is a keeper! Tastes like a cookie version of a brownie. I used crisco instead of butter, because I always do in cookies, and I used 1/2 C brown sugar, and 1 cup white sugar, just because it seemed like a good idea. I will be making these again. Thanks for the recipe!
