Slow Cooker Beef Stew I

Reviewed: Apr. 4, 2013

I added more celery and used baby carrots, adding more of those as well. Mixed one packet of onion soup mix with flour because I didn't have any beef broth. Perfect! I really liked not having to brown the meat first. Tasted better than other recipes I have tried with browning first - nice to omit having a pan to clean.

Pumpkin Crumb Cake

Reviewed: Oct. 22, 2012

Great recipe - try with chocolate cake with chocolate chips on top! You MUST let sit overnight to get best flavor. I didn't use any sugar in the topping, and cut the butter in half on the crust and it was still wonderful and not too sweet.

Aunt Mary's Eggplant Balls

Reviewed: Sep. 18, 2012

Very good - I think I may have gone a little heavy on the garlic and will use a little less next time. I used 8 cups of eggplant, doubled everything else but only used two eggs. Perfect texture.

Mustard Pickled Eggs

Reviewed: Apr. 3, 2012

Not the best out there for mustard eggs - too much vinegar, not enough mustard and the cornstarch is a waste.

Bayou Crostini

Reviewed: Feb. 4, 2012

Well, I hate to review something after changing ingredients, but I had leftover oysters after steaming fresh in the shell and used this recipe as a base. I had a loaf of rosemary olive bread - italtian style bread - and some of the laughing cow reduced fat cheese. I toasted the bread, spread on the cheese and put the oysters on top after just tossing them in a pan with some olive oil, butter, sauted garlic, parsley- that's it and they were absolutely divine! Just be careful not to over cook the oysters. Thanks for a good idea to work with-- I'm sure would be good with canned smoked oysters as well.

Easy and Elegant Pork Tenderloin

Reviewed: Oct. 11, 2011

Ugh! The pork was very tender and moist -but flavorless. I added herbs and cheese to the breadcrumbs so they had flavor, but the meat did not absorb any of this. Tenderloin would be better with sauce and grilled or seasoned well and cooked in pastry.

Squash Casserole I

Reviewed: Jun. 25, 2011

I was looking for a squash casserole that didn't use canned soup or cheese -- I did make some adjustments - I did not cook the squash covered in water - just a few tblsp in the pan - then drained cooked squash and did not mash - omitted sugar and followed another reviewers suggestion and mixed 2/3 of the bread crumbs right in with the squash and put the rest on top. I used seasoned bread crumbs because that was what I had on hand and also mixed in one tablespoon chicken soup base (NOT boullion). Very good!

Mini Ham And Cheese Rolls

Reviewed: Apr. 28, 2011

Fantastic - good way to use up leftover holiday ham - I put everything in the food processor as another reviewer suggested - they were eaten up as fast as they came out of the oven.

Chicken Curry II

Reviewed: Jul. 18, 2009

Okay, I'll agree not "authentic", but REALLY good. I added some frozen brocolli flowerets with the potatoes and didn't serve over rice because it was thick like a stew as it was, and used Spice Islands spicy curry powder. Be sure to use the golden raisins - adds the sweet contrast of a chutney. DELICIOUS!

Asian Style Country Ribs

Reviewed: Jul. 15, 2009

I followed the recipe with the exception of the slow cooker. Instead, I baked in the oven at 350 degrees WITH the remaining marinade for about an hour or until tender. DELICIOUS - the marinade flavor stayed in the meat and was really good. Spoon the drippings over the meat. Will make again.

Teriyaki Sauce and Marinade

Reviewed: Jan. 12, 2009

Really good! I needed a sauce for some wings so I tried this. I didn't have the wine, so I used half red and half white vermouth and increased the sugar a bit - wonderful!!!! Just thicken a little and toss with cooked wings - yumm!

Spinach Lentil Soup

Reviewed: Jan. 10, 2009

Great recipe- I made this in the crock pot and used a box of frozen spinach instead of fresh- turned out great. I then added some acini di pepe (tiny round) pasta I cooked in chicken broth - excellent! Serve with a sprinkle of parmesian cheese -yumm.

Ahi Poke Basic

Reviewed: Jan. 2, 2009

Loved this! I didn't have the nuts but didn't miss them - I did add a large tsp of minced ginger (from jar) and it added much flavor. Also followed other suggestions of cutting soy in half and using part teryaki sauce. Will make this again and again. I served over mixed salad greens as first course - got raves.

Balsamic Roasted Pork Loin

Reviewed: Dec. 4, 2008

I followed this as written and only added some garlic powder -- I didn't add any additional salt or pepper and roasted as described. I used boneless pork loin (NOT tenderloin) and the meat was tender and delicious and browned nicely. Will make this many times again - excellent!

Peanut Butter Vegetable Chicken Soup

Reviewed: May 2, 2008

Excellent for something a little different - I didn't use green pepper but added cut up green beans. I added some chopped jalapeno for heat with some Spice Island Thai seasoning and that really brought it to life - I agree may have been bland without the seasoning, but with it was really wonderful - will make again.
