Stuffed Zucchini

Reviewed: Aug. 7, 2008
I par boiled the squash, then scooped out the guts, drained the guts, patted the insides dry, added less than half the guts in to stuffing mixture - used ONLY bulk pork sausage (tastes like breakfast links), no tomato anything, garlic, more SEASONED bread crumbs, two eggs, and PARMESAN CHEESE to and on the stuffing after spooning back in the squash. Takes less time to cook, and tastes awesome!

Chipotle Crusted Pork Tenderloin

Reviewed: May 28, 2008
Did not follow the recipe to a T because I only had regular chili powder and no onion powder. Cooked indoors on my "Griddler" and it came out FABULOUS! Will definitely make again again. Brother in law LOVED it and so did his 18 month old son!

A nice spin on this traditional dish. Too much cinnamon though. Will cut in half next time.

Cod with Italian Crumb Topping

Reviewed: Jan. 17, 2008
My whole family enjoyed this lowfat dish. I took some of the previous suggestions and they all worked well. I soaked the fish in milk for half an hour before cooking, added extra Italian seasoning and put in some Cayenne pepper (I think the recipe would have been too bland without it). I used the egg white (not mayo because no one will eat it) and mixed it with some salt and pepper and lemon juice.

Candy Cane Cookies III

Reviewed: Dec. 26, 2007
The cookies tasted good but way too much time and effort for the end result. Added 1/2 tsp more of peppermint extract. Probably won't make again.

This is a great recipe. I added frozen green beans, onion powder and italian seasoning. GREAT! You may also want to consider doubling the black pepper.

Grandma's Green Bean Casserole

Reviewed: Nov. 23, 2007
Made this yesterday for Turkey day- It was fabulous! Only made a few changes- halved the salt, and cooked the onions in bacon grease hoping to pull in some bacon flavor. Everyone loved it! Will be making it again next year. Thanks for the recipe!

Garlic Chicken Fried Chicken

Reviewed: Nov. 17, 2007
I made this dish a couple of days ago with thighs (it's all I had). I took note of other raters saying the recipe didn't call for enough spices, so here's what I did: I cut down on the flour, upped the seasoned (or Italian) breadcrumbs by about 1/2 cup, and added about half-again as many spice(s). Voila! Also, I cooked the chicken pieces on the stove top for about 3-minutes each side (my oil was a little hot and they crisped up much faster than I thought they would) and finished them off in a 400 degree oven while I made the side dishes, set the table, etc. ... about 30-40 minutes. The family loved it, and the leftovers didn't quite make it to the dinner table the second day - they were gone by lunchtime. Crispy, tasty chicken in no time ... thanks for sharing!

Savory Turkey Gravy

Reviewed: Nov. 15, 2007
This is a great (and easy!) recipe for turkey gravy. The only change I made was that I always use the water that I've boiled the potatoes in, instead of regular old tap water. I think it just gives the gravy a better taste plus with the potatoes having been in the water, it might even help with the thickening. Whether or not, this is a keeper. Thanks for sharing!
