Whole Grain Waffles

Reviewed: Sep. 28, 2008
Taste was excellant. Any advice on why mine came out a little soft? I cooked them in a Belgium style waffle iron... could that be it? When i toasted the frozen leftovers, they were perfect!

Sophie's Zucchini Bread

Reviewed: Aug. 12, 2008
I followed the suggestions from other readers such as 1 1/2 cups white sugar and 1/2 cup brown sugar instead of 2 cups of white sugar and used 1 cup of applesauce instead of 1 cup oil. I did bake the loaves for 1 hour as stated in the recipe. As soon as I took them out of the oven the loaves deflated in front of my eyes! The texture was awful! I usually always follow the recipe to the letter and after this fiasco I will ALWAYS follow the original recipe before trying the suggestions from other readers. I was very disappointed!

Yellow Squash Casserole

Reviewed: Aug. 1, 2008
I added one zucchini which was good, i also used corn flakes instead of crackers as i usually do when a recipe calls for crackers or bread crumbs; my husband can't have wheat. I sprinkled a little garlic powder over this, we really enjoyed it. Between me and my husband we almost ate the whole dish!

Ultimate Twice Baked Potatoes

Reviewed: Jul. 14, 2008
I love twice baked potatoes for two reasons, 1. you don't have to be exact with what you put in and 2. you can make these in advance and refridge. or freeze! Yum.. the bacon in this recipe really make these delicious. I used turkey bacon and it was great!

Portuguese Custard Tarts - Pasteis de Nata

Reviewed: Jul. 14, 2008
I grew up eating these custards in Macau (a Portuguese colony) so i came in as a tough critique. This was my first time however actually make this, for some reason i though it would be really hard, but i was amazed how easy it was. My whole family loved them, they were gone in several hours. My only suggestion is to use the paper muffin liners. I sprayed half my pan and used the muffin liners for the other half and the greased ones stuck pretty bad, but the paper was great. I also used trader Joes puff pastry and just cut squares for ease... They looked a little different than the authentic ones, but the taste is excellent. I will definitely make again. Oh.. I also used a half tsp of vanilla instead of the vanilla bean.

Mom's Cheesecake

Reviewed: Jun. 20, 2008
Great recipe. I made it tonight and only was able to cool it in the fridge for an hour or so (after the 1 hour cooling in the oven) so it wasn't cold, but everyone loved it. And several said it was the best cheese cake they'd ever had! I will definetly make this again! Also, I experimented with the crust this time because i had a bunch of chocolate covered pretzels that had all melted together. I chopped it up and then also used a couple graham crackers. It was really good!

Pesto Cheesy Chicken Rolls

Reviewed: Mar. 30, 2008
Brushed each chicken roll with an egg wash and then sprinkled bread crumbs over. Baked covered 20 mins and then uncovered another 10-15. Took out, grated a little feta on top of each and put under the broiler for a couple mins to brown. Next time I'll put the feta inside with the cheese and pesto. Delicious!

Brown Sugar Meatloaf

Reviewed: Mar. 20, 2008
Delicious! My DH has been asking me to make him meatloaf for a long time, I thought i didn't like meatloaf (childhood memeory) but I loved this! My husband was very happy as well. I used ground Turkey, used onion soup mix, omitted the salt, and I added a squirt of worchestershire to the glaze, and spread on top. This sweet glaze really makes this meatloaf tasty. Yum! Next time i'm going to make double and freeze one.

Salsa Fish Skillet

Reviewed: Mar. 4, 2008
very good, I used yellow bell peppers in place of the yellow squash and I also used a pineapple salsa from Trader Joes. We loved all the vegetables, and I liked how easy the meal came together!

Cherry Cheesecake

Reviewed: Jan. 13, 2008
I was very disappointed with this recipe! I read all the reviews first before making this cheesecake and even compared this recipe to many others because it sounded like the best one but I will NEVER make this recipe again. I even added a cup of whipped cream to stiffen the cheesecake mix and had this chilling in my refrigerator for about 17 hours! When I took it out of the springform pan it reacted like a volcano erupting! All over my kitchen counter! What a disappointment!
