Naan

Reviewed: Oct. 6, 2008
Holy cow these were so delicious! I didn't change a thing except to not add garlic and not brush with butter. The bread bubbled and looked and tasted genuine. We cooked ours on our charcoal BBQ and we ate more bread than dinner lol! The dough is very easy to use - the trick is to roll is as thin as you can. It kept well in the fridge to cook more the next day. Makes delicious sandwiches if you add some feta and whole basil leaves, then roll.

Blueberry Pie

Reviewed: Jul. 26, 2008
I made the pie exactly as written except I used 5 Tbs of corn starch as suggested. It was so runny that after cutting one piece, the area filled with liquid, even though the pie had cooled. I sopped up the excess liquid and what was left tasted really good.

Blonde Brownies I

Reviewed: Jun. 29, 2008
These are amazing - chewy and dense - a hybrid between a chocolate chip cookie and a brownie. Super rich. I added 1/2 the chips in the batter and half on top.

Extreme Banana Nut Bread 'EBNB'

Reviewed: Jun. 27, 2008
I really hope someone reads this and it helps them because I ruined my first batch! I set the timer for 55 and checked it every 5 minutes after that it took about 62 minutes to be perfect. You also need to add only HALF the salt (even less if you use salted butter) it asks for - it tasted salty as a potato chip! I used 2 medium-large bananas and they measured out to be one cup mashed. If you add too much banana you will get a funny texture and it doesn't cook in the middle. I am sticking with this revised recipe because it makes a super buttery, moist and delicious banana bread :)

Cream Cheese Cookies III

Reviewed: Jun. 20, 2008
Really yummy! =). To give it more of a tropical/summer-like flavor, I omitted the egg and used a banana, and also used Dole's pina colada juice instead of lemon juice. I also did not use nuts--but only because I didn't have any! I made the cookie-part twice (using one mixture for the bottom and another for the topping). For the bottom one, I added a couple tablespoons cornmeal to try to get a little bit of a crunch, but I didn't do that for the top. It was delicious and I plan to make it again really soon!

Restaurant-Style Coleslaw I

This was excellent! I used all low fat ingredients and added peanuts and shredded carrots. This will be a staple during the summer.

Spinach and Pasta Shells

Reviewed: May 9, 2008
It was very good. I used garlic/basil linguini pasta. I think I'll use less red pepper next time and more garlic, but I really like garlic. Thanks for posting this recipe. It was quick and easy.

Ranch Dressing II

Reviewed: Mar. 6, 2008
I'm giving this a 4 as is, but really with the changes everyone suggested I'd give it a 5. Instead of the mayo/sour cream proportion, I used 1/3 cup light mayo, 1/3 cup light sour cream and 2/3 cup low fat buttermilk. I also doubled the spices and used fresh chives.

Creamy Italian Dressing I

Reviewed: Feb. 19, 2008
I love this dressing. Over the past few months I have developed what we like best: 3/4 mayo and 1/4 cup olive oil, 2-3 TBS white or red onion, a bit less sugar, a bit more red wine vinegar and the addition of a pinch of poultry seasoning. I always use fresh garlic in my home but for this recipe the powdered is better - it becomes just too too much with fresh garlic.

Oven Fried Chicken II

Reviewed: Feb. 7, 2008
Wonderful! Crispy on the outside, moist and tender inside. I used drumsticks as my daughter loves them. It was great. I need to use a little more salt next time. Thanks for posting.

Baked Ziti I

Reviewed: Feb. 7, 2008
This was delicious. I believe you can rate a recipe high and still change it - if I wanted to eat other's recipes unchanged I would hire a chef. I added 3 cloves fresh crushed garlic and diced fresh mushrooms, celery, basil and spinach for a veggie boost to the meat sauce. A splash of red wine in the sauce and some parmesan cheese on the top layer of the ziti added complexity and perfection! So good thank you for this recipe! I never would have tried sour cream and it really added richness and zest. Note: I too layered the "saucy" ingredients together between the cheese and pasta as others have so that the flavors would marry.

Cranberry Upside-Down Coffee Cake

Reviewed: Jan. 27, 2008
The only change I made was to use blueberries instead of cranberries, and to cook it at 325 for 45 minutes (I used a dark pan). Fantastic - the only other thing I would change is to add just a little less sugar and perhaps more nuts as they disappeared in the mass of berries. Tasted so good though - excellent!

Cod au Gratin

Reviewed: Jan. 26, 2008
Excellent base recipe. This was delicious! I broiled the fish with some garlic powder and old bay, then made the roux with 1 TBS less flour and added the following spices: dry mustard, Old Bay, Pepper, garlic powder, and a bit of poultry seasoning. I didn't layer - just flaked it up a bit in a shallow layer then added a layer of swiss and a bit of cheddar.

Easy Turkey Tetrazzini

Reviewed: Jan. 22, 2008
It was very good. Will make it again. I used both cream of mushroom and cream of celery soup, and added a half cup of frozen peas. Next time I'll deglaze the pan with white wine after sauteing the mushrooms.

Slow Cooker Chicken Taco Soup

Reviewed: Jan. 3, 2008
Definitely a hit! I used frozen chicken breasts and added a can of black beans. Instead of whole tomatoes, I bought crushed tomatoes which seemed to have the perfect texture. I might even double the tomatoes next time. Also, if you live near a Trader Joe's, I highly recommend using their bottled enchilada sauce. Everyone in the family loved it, including my 10 and 4 year old boys.

Avocado Dessert

Reviewed: Dec. 27, 2007
MmmMmm! Avocados were on sale so we bought a whole bunch, and I needed things to make with them. This was very light, super easy, and REALLY good! I made some changes, using soy milk instead of regular milk, and halving the sugar and the vanilla. It was not overpowering at all, but rather just sweet enough! This will probably become one of my regular snacks =).
