My husband says this is the best shell recipe he has ever had. Only a couple of changes made this to our liking. I used small curd cottage cheese...added a bag of chopped spinach, and seasoned with more garlic powder, basil and parsley. Topped with both mozzarella and parmesan. Covered with foil for the first 20 minutes and then cooked another 20-25 minutes without. Will definitely be a regular recipe for us.

World's Best Lasagna

Reviewed: Jan. 1, 2010

This recipe is perfect. I opted to leave the fennel out...just a personal preference. Thanks for the great recipe.

Slow Cooker Teriyaki Pork Tenderloin

Reviewed: Nov. 7, 2009

Excellent. So tender! Followed exactly with the exception of temp. I found 4 hours on low was perfect. I also thickened the sauce for a gravy while letting the meat rest for 5-10 min.

Awesome Slow Cooker Pot Roast

Reviewed: Sep. 26, 2009

I always let my future husband rate the meals...he gave it 4 1/2 (if he could). I seared the meat as suggested by many. Added potatoes and onion to bottom of crockpot. Used half water, half red wine. Cooked on low 9 hours. Had to thicken gravy at end. A very hearty meal on a cool fall night.

Three-Cheese Spaghetti Bake

Reviewed: Aug. 14, 2009

Very good recipe. The only changes I made from reading other reviews was to add a full bottle of spaghetti sauce and half a jar of alfredo. Fiancee requested a little more seasoning.

Slow Cooker Pulled Pork

Reviewed: Jul. 11, 2009

This was excellent and so easy. It was my first time trying pulled pork. I used a 3 1/2 lb sirloin pork roast. Put in slow cooker with 12oz root beer. Cooked on low 6-7 hours. Did flip over half way thru. Took out roast and shredded with forks. Left only about 1/4 of liquid and then mixed the pork with 1/2 bottle Sweet Baby Rays. Placed on toasted rolls. Served with coleslaw and roasted potatoes.

Slow Cooker Chicken and Dumplings

Reviewed: Jan. 25, 2009

Tried this recipe for the first time today. A great recipe for the cold weather we are having. I always let my fiance rate the recipes...and he loved it. In fact, he told me to stop buying the frozen ones from our local farm and just make this recipe instead. I took a combination of the reviews and this is what I came up with. First I used four frozen chicken breasts, one can cream of celery, one can cream of chicken, one 14oz chicken broth, celery, onion, carrots, and seasonings. I cooked on high for four hours then shredded the chicken. Then I placed on low for the next four hours. About two hours before eating I spread one can of Grand homestyle rolls into the chicken mixture. I agree that two cans would have been too much. Will certainly add this recipe to the favorite list.

Chicken Tetrazzini IV

Reviewed: Aug. 29, 2008

Followed the recipe exactly. My boyfriend loved although his only comment was "a little heavy on the butter". Will try alternatives to lower the fat content. Would welcome suggestions.

Grilled Salmon I

Reviewed: Jun. 14, 2008

This was a hit! Followed as directed except grilled 6 min each side. My boyfriend thought it was unbelievably good and can't wait for me to make it again.
