Fried Rice Restaurant Style

Reviewed: Oct. 21, 2009
easy, good, my kids loved it, veggies & all. I think it's missing something. Maybe I didn't put enough soy sauce.

Crescent Beef Casserole

Reviewed: Oct. 20, 2009
Loved it! I didn't have any tomato puree/paste so I substituted with beef jar gravy. Couldn't find Zucchini (fresh or frozen)so I used a mixed frozen veggies. I will make again. I took the advice of one of the reviewers & baked the mashed potatoes for 10 min before I added the meat & crescents.

Chuck's Favorite Mac and Cheese

Reviewed: Oct. 20, 2009
Excellent! EASY! My whole family loved it! Even better the next day. The only change I will make is use half the bread crumbs.

Sun-Dried Tomato Cheesecake Squares

Reviewed: Oct. 20, 2009
I had high hopes for this recipe. I needed something that could be served at room temperature to take to my monthly card club, and I thought this sounded interesting. It came out of the oven an ugly beigey-pink color and it was all cracked on top. I had trouble cutting it into squares without it falling apart and the crust was so thin, it might as well not have been there. I didn't care for the taste or the texture, but I had my husband taste it. "You're not going to take this to Canasta, are you?", he said. I took a pea, cheese and pasta salad instead. It made a good story at the club meeting, though. Sorry, this was definitely not for me.

Chicken with Tomatillos and Poblanos

Reviewed: Oct. 19, 2009
This was pretty good. I roasted a jalapeno along with the other peppers and added it to the dish. The skins of the peppers didn't exactly "slip right off" even though I allowed them to steam in a paper bag for a few minutes after roasting. The peeling process took some effort. And although I browned the chicken breast chunks and then removed them from the pan to keep them from over cooking, and put them back in with the cilantro, they still came out dry and tough. Next time, I'll use thighs instead. Otherwise, we really liked this. I think it could have used more heat, maybe some cayenne or an un-roasted, chopped jalapeno would do the trick. I will definitely make it again. Thanks, Suzanne!

Ma Lipo's Apricot-Glazed Turkey with Roasted Onion and Shallot Gravy

Reviewed: Oct. 18, 2009
I had a craving for turkey so I bought a whole bone-in breast. I didn't want it to taste like my normal Thanksgiving turkey, so I tried this recipe. It was wonderful. I have to admit that I left out the sage because I wanted the sweetness of the apricots and onions without any interference. This was a great, different taste for turkey (of which I'm usually not a big fan, I make it normally once a year). I'll definitely use this recipe again. Thanks Christine!

Baked Ham with Maple Glaze

Reviewed: Oct. 18, 2009
As others suggested, I used bourbon instead of vinegar and it was marvelous. I also used hot Asian mustard powder instead of the traditional English powder and it just gave the glaze a hint of a kick. My husband became very protective of the bottle of bourbon I brought home. He pictured me pouring the whole bottle over the ham. When I explained that I only needed a couple of tablespoons, he relinquished it and had a drink. Thank you Michelle, this was great!

Turkey Bacon Avocado Sandwich

Reviewed: Oct. 10, 2009
I made this for lunch today and my kids love, love, love them! I found a way to get in those veggies again. I always use 100% wheat bread and low fat mayo or Miracle Whip. The only real fat in this is from the bacon and I cook it on a George Foreman grill so at least a lot of the fat is drained. I will make this often.

Teriyaki and Pineapple Chicken

Reviewed: Oct. 10, 2009
I made this recipe for the fam and they loved it! The only thing I changed was i added minced garlic because I did not have garlic powder. It's a great way to get kids to eat all those veggies!

Slow Cooker Chicken and Dumplings

Reviewed: Sep. 29, 2009
Next time less biscuits & cook the biscuits a little longer. I prefer the biscuits doughy but my family would like them cooked longer. I think with this modification it could be a 5 star.

Mojo Roast Chicken (Pollo Asado)

Reviewed: Sep. 28, 2009
We thought this was pretty good. I cut back on the cumin a bit and added a little chile powder and cayenne pepper. I don't think it needed quite so much oil. It was a bit greasy. When I make this again, I'll use less. Thanks for the recipe!

Mexican White Sauce

Reviewed: Sep. 26, 2009
I grew up close to the Mexican border and I have never heard of this stuff. Salsa Verde and Pico de Gallo, but this? No. I was intrigued so I gave it a try. It was okay, a bit sweet, but certainly not Mexican. It must be an East Coast thing.

Old Fashioned Potato Salad

Reviewed: Aug. 30, 2009
I loved this recipe. I did tweak a lil bit. I added more mayo and mustard (to taste, no measuring) and a just a little bit of diced red bell pepper. Delicious. Thanks for the recipe.

Empty Wallet Casserole

Reviewed: Aug. 25, 2009
After tasting it in my head, I didn't like the idea of cumin, poultry seasoning and thyme. So I used cumin, chili powder and oregano. I also added a layer of grated cheddar cheese between and on top of the layers of potatoes. To keep with the southwest flavors I seemed to be building, I added a can of diced green chiles to the cream of chicken soup. This was a great budget meal and we liked it quite a bit. Thanks Jeslynn!

Chili Dog Casserole I

Reviewed: Aug. 22, 2009
I made this today and the kids loved it. I tweaked it a little bit. I sautéed hot dogs in a skillet until browned and added diced onion to hot dogs and sautéed a little longer. I doubled the chili as well. I served ketchup,mustard, sour cream and diced pickles on the side for toppings of choice. This is a keeper.

Garlic Chicken

Reviewed: Aug. 13, 2009
5 stars for taste and simplicity. I was looking for a simple recipe that didn't require me to go grocery shopping by using things that I already had on hand. This recipe is tasty and very quick and easy. My kids loved this and when they ask for 2nd's, it's an automatic winner. I didn't make any alterations to this recipe. It is great just the way it is. (Note: I made sure I cut the chicken breast in equal proportions so that they were cooked equally. I didn't want some juicy breasts and some dry)

Oven Brown Rice

Reviewed: Jul. 29, 2009
I have never been able to get brown rice to come out right. It never seems to get tender for me, but this recipe worked! I followed it pretty closely, only I used fresh minced garlic, cut down the butter to 2 tablespoons and just a sprinkle of seasoned salt. I baked it covered in a glass Corningware casserole dish at 375 and after one hour, it was done! And done perfectly. Thank you so much KAYLEEW. I can finally cook brown rice!!
