Faux Jerk Chicken

Reviewed: Sep. 12, 2008
This was very good! The only problem or suggesion I had with this one, was not enough sauce. I understand it was just marinated, and I marinated it over night, and opoked it with a fork, but still didn't really taste the marinate through the chicken, when cut. Here's my suggestion, take twio pieces of wax paper, put on bottom and top of raw chicken. Take a hammer or mallet, and hammer on top of waxed paper, between chicken to make skinner, so marinate can go through easier. Then cobtinue with poking your fork with chicken, after taking waxed paper off. Your chicken will be well marinated over night and ready to be fried and guests to eat. Otherwise I'd susgest some kind of sause with it. My brother and gf used hot sause. I prefer enchilda sauce with it. It had a good favor!I used ginger instead of the allspice, (since I had none), pepper for cajun poweder(also had none), and extra chili poweder. It still turned out good, with the few ingredient changes, but next time I think I'd like to try it with the original ingredients.But none the lest, this recipe is a keeper! Thanks!

Cherry Chicken Lettuce Wraps

Reviewed: Sep. 12, 2008
This was the best recipe for chicken luttuce wraps! I made this recipre two times, and both times it was a success!I was told by my mom that the second time was my best!First time I used mushrooms, and a jar of asian veggies , celery,had no water chestnuts, so added cheshews for a big cruch, and big ginger chucks. The second time I omitted the mushrooms , cut up the ginger smaller,(I thought the frist time the ginger was too strong) and added celery again. I did less of the veggie ingredience,had no chashews but this time had water chestnuts. I guess in this case, less is more.

Depression Cake I

Reviewed: Sep. 5, 2008
Oh so tasty just as the recipe is. If you like a spice cake, this one is great. I was worried because I tasted the concoction after it cooled and I didn't think it taste good at all. I think this cake would be great even with out the raisins although the may have added some flavor during the simmering.

Lighter Banana Muffins

Reviewed: Aug. 17, 2008
These were great! The only problem was I mixed the liquids with the dry stuff the day ahead. It came out with a wet look, when I findally baked it, in the next morning. Very delious, and tasteful. I didn't have nutmeg, so I substituded a pumkin spice. I also used vanilla yogurt for lotos-intorent reasons, instead of milk, which also could've gave it that wet look.

Iowa Pork Steak

Reviewed: Aug. 10, 2008
Delicious! I used cream of chicken soup instead of cream of mushroom. I also cooked pork chops instead of the steaks at 375 and served the gravy over white rice. Will make it again.

Potato and Broccoli Casserole

Reviewed: Aug. 5, 2008
Made this for dinner lastnight. Did as suggested by others and cooked the potatoes first. I also used cream of mushroom soup sense I did not have any cream of broccoli on hand. I topped it with crushed ritzs crackers instead of the saltines and little dabs of butter, baked it at 375 for one hour. Served with a tossed green salad and crescent rolls. Everyone enjoyed it except for the 9 year old who doesn't care for broccoli. When asked t rate it my eldest gave it a 4 and my husband started with a 3 star but changed his mind and gave it a 4 in the end. Will make again and will think of other things to add to dish.

Blueberry Buckle

Reviewed: Jul. 22, 2008
Excellent recipe! That said, I simply used it as a guideline for my own buckle. I am often unwilling to rate recipes because I rarely make them as the recipe is written. I have been cooking for years, and we have developed our own preferences, but I am always looking for recipes to adapt and this one did beautifully! Whole wheat and oat flour for flour; Whey Low sugar for sugar (whey-low.com. 75% less calories and carbs than regular sugar-we are diabetics. And not artificial) use about 1/3-1/2 amount of sugar called for. Almost always use combination of Whey-low white and brown). double the vanilla. Nutmeg in this one. I used chopped up peaches instead of blueberries, as that is what I had. Cooked i a slower oven 325 (as recommended by others) Will make a raspberry sauce for a variation on Peach Melba, as I made jam last week (using Whey-Low of course). Thank you JBS Box for an excellent recipe to make my own. Not many adapt as readily as yours did Judy in Washington

Fresh Strawberry Pie III

Everyone loved it! My husband was afraid that it would be overly sweet with the cup of sugar but it turned out not to be. Will make again for special occasions. A nice dessert for those hot summer days.

Easy and quick to prepare. Youngest doesn't care for peppers so I left them out for him. Good for nights when oldest son has to attend school concert and we want something quick.

Fancy Potatoes

Reviewed: Jul. 14, 2008
Easy to prepare. Used sharp cheddar cheese for the top. Thought about adding roasted garlic to mashed potato mixture for more flavor. Hubby also suggested sauteed mushrooms. Made for my family's traditional meatless Monday meal. Served with steamed broccoli, green salad and crescent rolls

Tropical Salad with Pineapple Vinaigrette

Reviewed: Jul. 1, 2008
My dad loved this salad! This is such agreat salad, because plain green salads aren't very popular at our house. But since this salad not only has meat, nuts, and coconut, it has pineapples, which makes it like a fruit salad, making it the most popular salad in the house now! I used almonds, as well as macondaias, and cooked all nuts with coconut and already fried bacon! Which the bacon turned out good, and crispy, while it starts to burn in the pan! Everything tasted great blended together, and the sauce was great with the salad! Thank you for this recipe!

Jamie's Minestrone

Reviewed: Jun. 24, 2008
I made this for our family tradition of meatless mondays. I left out the spinach and zucchini, and instead of using 4 cups of tomato sauce, I used 2C sauce and 2C diced canned tomatoes instead. I had some mini macaroni noodles that I used in place of the shell pasta and used dried herbs that I had on hand My family liked it with the exception of my 9 year old who I have a hard time getting to eat his veggies. My husband placed a biscuit in the bottom of his bowl pouring the soup on top. Will make again in the future.

Artichoke and Sun-dried Tomato Chicken

Reviewed: Jun. 12, 2008
This was great! I got lots of compliements on this by making it one of the reviewers mentioned, making it a pasta chicken sun- dried tomato dish. I added pine nuts, a little bit of garlic to make it more italian. The only thing I'd change would be the sun-dried tomatoes. Here in Germany they came in a plastic package already salted, and were too salty. So next time I'd probably rinse them with water and dry them with a paper towel. Other that that, perfect! Thnks for the recipe and improvements!

Tater Tot Casserole II

Reviewed: May 6, 2008
Prepared this for dinner lastnight along with steamed broccoli. My husband and oldest loved it, but my youngest just picked out the tater tots. I used roasted garlic cream of mushroom soup instead of the regular, and baked it for only 45min although my husband stated that it could have used another 5min or so.

Sloppy Joe Sandwiches

Reviewed: May 1, 2008
Had not had Sloppy Joe's in a long time so decided to make them last night with a tossed green salad on the side. I did add a few things that were listed in a recipe from one of my cookbooks. I put in some chopped onion ( a suggestion from the book), garlic( which was of my own choosing) and sweet bellpeppers(from the book) and sense I didn't have onion and garlic powder, I replaced with onion and garlic salt, then eliminated the regular salt. I think I will make a smaller amount with out the peppers, because my picky eater saw them and wanted just the bun with no filling.

Faux Meat Balls

Reviewed: Apr. 29, 2008
Decided to try new family tradition, and serve a meatless meal once a week. Recipe was easy to put together. Baked them in the oven and then placed them into spaghetti sauce. Flavor was a bit bland so will add more seasoning and cheese. I used a 1/4 measuring cup to be sure meatballs were same size, but I think I will make them a bit small next time. Sixteen year old liked them along with my husband, but my nine year old ate the spaghetti, but not the meatballs.

Honey Baked Chicken II

Reviewed: Apr. 18, 2008
This turned out great! I learned out to cut a whole chicken. Then I made the sauce, using 1 cup of honey 9i thought was the perfect solution for the not enough honet problem people have been referring too. I figured two cups would be too much. I added already cut adried onions, and alrewady minced garlic gloves, 1/4 water, some vegtable flakes, almost 1 cup of spicy mustard. (I was running out), and 2 tablesppons of curry powder. It turned out perfectly! Poured over the chicken, and let it bake under foil, as suggested. What I recommend with the chicken is rice. A good way to do it is add french onion soup, I used brown rice, and like 1/2 cup of water. I turned out good, if only I didn't burn it! Remember keeop an eye on your rice, and stir continuly! Honey chicken sauce taste good with rice! Thanks for thev recipe! It was delious!

Grilled Salmon I

Reviewed: Apr. 14, 2008
Incredible! Living in the Pacific NW we tend to eat a lot of seafood...I love it when I find a new recipe that tastes great and is easy. Our neighbor gave us some fresh salmon that he had caught a couple hours befpre and I decided to BBQ it and try this recipe. Instead of garlic powder I used fresh garlic, but other than that I followed the recipe exactly. My 10 year old, who insists she hates salmon, even tried it and wanted more instead of the hot dog that I had made her...wow! The only change I will make in the future is to marinate the fish for at least 3 - 4 hours. Thanks for the great recipe!
