I found this recipe by accident and boy am I glad! My hubby is strictly a meat a potatoes guy and he loved this dish. I tweaked it a little; added the sour cream as suggested by another reviewer and added a layer of cheese in the middle. I also put in more spices, garlic and onion powder, some parsley flakes and a pinch of basil, and cooked the meat with a couple of bouillions cubes. It turned out absolutely wonderfully and gave it a more "cheesburger" flavor. I used foil to cover it and the potatoes were nice and tender after only an hour in the oven. Thanks for the great comfort food recipe!

Scarlett's Chicken Cacciatore

Reviewed: Nov. 16, 2010

I too left out the green peppers as my hubby is very picky. The only thing I changed was I used less onion and served it over spaghetti instead of egg noodles. Great one dish meal, just serve with garlic bread and you're good to go.

Homemade Lasagna

Reviewed: Feb. 27, 2010

I also made a little more sauce and put a layer of sauce in the bottom of the pan. Then I drained the cottage cheese to make it more dry. It came out perfect!

Chuck Wagon Stew

Reviewed: Nov. 11, 2009

I loved this recipe and it's a good basic recipe. I used onion powder (because my husband likes the taste of the onion, just not the texture) and added a pinch of garlic powder, some fresh sweet basil and parsley. I also added more water and boullion cubes to make it more like soup. We sprinkled shredded cheddar on top, served it with crusty rolls and it was a winner. Definitely one of my favorite comfort meals! Great for chilly weather too.

Oven-Crisped Potatoes

Reviewed: Jun. 11, 2009

Great basic recipe. I washed the potatoes, left the skin on and used onion powder instead of real onion. I also added a dash of garlic powder, about a teaspoon of fresh parsely, and topped them with some sharp cheddar. Tasty.

Florentine Artichoke Dip

Reviewed: Mar. 7, 2009

This recipe was fabulous and much easier than the ones I've made in the past. The first time I made it I didn't have any artichokes so I spiced it up with extra lemon juice, garlic and Monterey Jack cheese. It gets a little thick as it sets so I put it in the crock pot on low and it was a huge hit at our last poker party.

Easy Cheesy Scalloped Potatoes

Reviewed: Apr. 5, 2008

I thought this was a good basic recipe but my husband raved about it. The second time I made it, I substituted for the chicken broth milk and added a sliced onion, about a half a teaspoon of garlic powder and a dash of paprika for color. It was a hit the second time around too.
