'Calabacitas Guisada' (Stewed Mexican Zucchini)

Reviewed: Oct. 16, 2009
As written, it needed a little something. I enjoyed it but it wasn't anything spectacular.

Ranch Pretzels and Goldfish

Reviewed: Oct. 16, 2009
I added corn Chex and used Ranch popcorn seasoning. I didn't have dill weed, omitted the garlic powder and added a little bit of grated Parmesan cheese and the result was delicious! The combination of the ranch and lemon pepper was awesome.

Apple Cream Coffee Cake

Reviewed: Oct. 16, 2009
This was really good! I made it in a square 8x8 b/c I didn't have a tube pan and I added butter to the topping as other reviewers suggested, but I think it would've been great either way. Really moist and very tasty!

Corn Dog Muffins

Reviewed: Sep. 28, 2009
I didn't notice that the cornbread mix I got only needed water, so perhaps that's why I didn't think these were great. My toddler wouldn't touch them, either :( I will try them with a different mix next time. Hopefully they'll be better. **Update** I tried it with a different mix and they turned out a lot better! Kids at work really enjoyed it!

Cranberry Hootycreeks

Reviewed: Sep. 28, 2009
I wanted to try these cookies before the holidays to see if I liked them enough to give them as gifts and they were amazing! I can't stop eating them, so I'm definitely gifting these. Even though I was scared of beating the butter and egg without adding the sugar first, I followed the recipe exactly and they came out perfect.

Jamie's Minestrone

Reviewed: Sep. 28, 2009
It was great! Only change I made was to add zucchini and sweet peas and I only used about 1 tbsp olive oil instead of 3.

Lime Chicken Soft Tacos

Reviewed: Sep. 28, 2009
I'm giving it four starts because, while the chicken by itself had an amazing taste, the added ingredients on the tacos didn't go together that great for my taste. I used cilantro instead of oregano and the taste of the chicken reminded me of authentic Mexican steak tacos (which are usually served with raw onion and chopped cilantro and a splash of lime juice). I think next time I'll try the chicken on lightly fried corn tortillas, to imitate the flavor of the other tacos.

Annie's Fruit Salsa and Cinnamon Chips

Reviewed: Sep. 23, 2009
I used this as a cooking project with a group of 5-10 year olds and they all loved it! A few of them even came up to me and asked for the recipe :) Used some different fruits (apples, pineapple, strawberries, blueberries, raspberries and peaches) but kept everything else the same. The chips are delicious!

Double Chocolate Pie

Reviewed: Sep. 12, 2009
I was not very fond of the flavor. I think it was the addition of vanilla extract. I also did not find it to be sweet enough. However, it was creamy, thick and SUPER chocolate!

Shrimp Scampi II

Reviewed: Sep. 12, 2009
I thought this recipe was very good. I fried the shrimp first and put them in a dish. Then, I made the sauce with the remaining juices from frying, but found it to be very thin so I added 2 tsp of cornstarch to thicken it up a bit. I also added some basil and oregano. I poured it over the shrimp and topped it with shredded Romano and Parmesan cheese and baked it in the oven for about 10 minutes. The only thing we did not really like was the lemon. Next time I will use less lemon.

No-Fuss Meat Loaf

Reviewed: Sep. 11, 2009
My family really enjoyed this meat loaf, although I changed a few things. Instead of water, I added 1/2 can of tomato sauce(used the rest on top), 2 tablespoons of milk, about a third of a red onion and 2 garlic cloves. I used the stovetop chicken stuffing(it was what I had handy), and it was delicious!

Penne Pasta with Spinach and Bacon

Reviewed: Sep. 7, 2009
Giving it a four b/c if I had made it according to the directions, it would've been too bland and greasy for my taste. I used bowtie pasta since that's what I had, diced tomatos with garlic, basil and oregano, sprinkled some red pepper flakes and added some leftover grilled chicken breast. It was really delicious and I will definitely make it again! Thanks for an interesting dish :)*** I didn't mention the changes I made in my original review, so here goes. I didn't use any olive oil and drained most of the bacon drippings from the pan before adding all the other ingredients. The juice from the canned tomatoes was saucy enough for the pasta.

Stuffed Shells I

Reviewed: Sep. 5, 2009
These are pretty good, but I'm not crazy about the cottage cheese and neither is my husband. Will try them again with Ricotta or half and half.

White Chocolate Raspberry Cheesecake

Reviewed: Sep. 5, 2009
A-M-A-Z-I-N-G!!! Used raspberry preserves rather than fresh raspberries. I placed the springform pan on a jelly roll pan with a little bit of water to avoid cracks, but of course some of the water got inside. No biggie though. Next time I'll put the pan with the water on the bottom rack. Can't wait to make it again!!!

Mexican Rice III

Reviewed: Sep. 5, 2009
Love, love, loooove this! I've made it many times and it's always great. Instead of the chicken bouillon I use a Knorr Tomate cube since that's what my mom uses on her rice, everything else I follow exactly.

Garden Pasta Salad

Reviewed: Sep. 5, 2009
Made it with red oninons, black olives, broccoli, and grape tomatoes and I only used one bottle of dressing and that seemed to be enough. I made it for a bbq and it was all gone. My father-in-law said he went back for 3rds and everyone seemed to enjoy it.

Yummy Honey Chicken Kabobs

Reviewed: Sep. 5, 2009
These were soooo good! I marinated them for about 6 hours and that seemed to be enough time. I marinated the chicken with pineapple slices and on a separate container marinated onions, green peppers, mushrooms and grape tomatoes. I combined the chicken and veggies on the kabobs and they cooked fine together. Our only complaint was that the chicken had a weird creamy coating on it, but we didn't mind it much and that could've come from marinating it together with the pineapple. Making these again tomorrow!

Chicken Enchiladas

Reviewed: Sep. 5, 2009
I'm giving it a four b/c I poured half of another can of sauce on top of the enchiladas before baking so they wouldn't be too dry. That said, my husband said these were restaurant quality and I'll definitely be making them again. I served them with a Black Beans and Rice recipe I got from this site, which was the perfect side dish.
