Bacon for the Family or a Crowd

Reviewed: Mar. 24, 2011

Turned out beautiful. I used a rack and covered the top of bacon for 15 min then uncovered until desired crispiness. Have to tell you that mine took almost 30 min at 350. Didn't want to increase temperature because we don't like really crispy bacon.

This was a good recipe but I was disappointed that I couldn't taste any potato.

Hearty Split Pea Soup

Reviewed: Feb. 5, 2010

We tried this first with the ham, then without. Definitely better with the ham added. Very easy to make.

Baked Potato Soup I

Reviewed: Feb. 5, 2010

Better than most restaurants. I only used 1/2c butter, fat free milk, 6 medium potatoes and a little less bacon. The trick is to keep stirring, otherwise everything settles and sticks to the pot. Everyone liked putting on different 'toppings' too.

Amazing Ribs

Reviewed: Sep. 7, 2009

I've made these twice. They really need to go on the grill for a few minutes on each side, otherwise they taste a little water logged and chewy. It really was a huge difference. We would rate them 2 stars w/out the grill step and 5 stars as written. Very often, the recipes on this site just don't need to be modified.

Boiled Bagels

Reviewed: Aug. 25, 2009

These are the best bagels we have ever had. My dough only took about 3 1/2 cups of flour and 25 min to cook. We made ours into 8 bagels because we had planned on using them to make bagel pizzas - we ate them plain instead. We dipped 4 of the bagels in sesame seed before baking and boy were they good. I plan on putting some jalapeno in the next batch. Thanks for the recipe!

Easy Baking Powder Drop Biscuits

Reviewed: Aug. 10, 2009

Took only 15 min start to finish. Quick, easy and tastes great. I added some Italian seasonings and cooked in my toaster oven 11 min. Very buttery, but very good.

Joey's Peanut Butter Cookies

Reviewed: Aug. 8, 2009

These are very easy to make and taste alright. I didn't care much for these but the rest of my family loved them. In my opinion, they're a little too heavy.

Banana Bread - Quick Bread for Machines

Reviewed: Aug. 4, 2009

This was so easy. I used 2 1/2 bananas, chopped. I used the ' quick bread ' setting on my machine but I pulled the plug when it still had about 15 min left. The bread was perfect but if I hadn't stopped the cooking early - I think it might have been well overcooked. There were no chunks of banana in the bread, so next time I won't chop the banana so much. Cinnamon was a good addition but I'll add vanilla next time too.

Monkey Bread I

Reviewed: Jun. 11, 2009

I used slivered almonds that I toasted instead of walnuts and they tasted great. Would recommend using a good quality biscuit dough ( the cheap store brands taste gross in this recipe ).

Watermelon Pops

Reviewed: Jun. 10, 2009

I used 1/3 less fat cream cheese and fat free Cool Whip. Still tastes great. Do need to freeze cream middle in cup before adding green mixture. Good recipe for the kiddies to have fun with.

Classic Macaroni Salad

Reviewed: Jun. 6, 2009

I used 1/2 the sugar called for and this was still too sweet. Maybe this is what Macaroni salad is supposed to taste like? This is sugar coated pasta . NOBODY liked this. Won't make this again, unless I omit sugar completely.

Delicious Raspberry Oatmeal Cookie Bars

Reviewed: Feb. 14, 2009

This was good but I think it was missing something in taste. Next time I will add chopped pecans or walnuts to the crumble mixture on top.

Fluffy Peanut Butter Frosting

Reviewed: Jan. 24, 2009

I took the advice of Cyndie Schneider and this recipe still didn't work. It tastes like a overly sugary failed attempt at frosting. It would be cheaper to buy frosting (and it would taste better!).
