Slow Cooker Thai Peanut Pork

Reviewed: Feb. 21, 2010

Made with twice the amount of teriyaki sauce, peanut butter, rice vinegar, and garlic. Used 1.5 tsp red pepper flakes. The meat came out super moist and tender. The sauce was awesome. I didn't care for the dish that much but my husband says it's a keeper and ate 2 helpings! The lime adds a lime-ish flavor which was nice but I didn't think it absolutely necessary.

Pie Crust IV

Reviewed: Feb. 5, 2010

Amazing. Better than store bought pie crust. I only had butter on hand and it worked well (I put the butter in the microwave for about 10 seconds because it was pretty solid from coming directly out of the fridge.) The recipe as written barely covered my 9" pie plate top and bottom so I might double it next time.

French Bread Rolls to Die For

Reviewed: Feb. 1, 2010

I used all-purpose flour and it turned out great. Although I only ended up using about 3 c. (excluding the plenty of flour I had to add to my counter while kneading). Very good. French bread in a roll. Way easier than I expected, and I even kneaded it by hand. Thanks!

Coconut Macaroons III

Reviewed: Dec. 14, 2009

Amazing! 14 oz. bag makes 5 1/2 c. I've got to try parchment paper next time because aluminum foil just got to stuck to every single one and made it such a pain to peel off. But even so, the macaroons were worth the extra battle with the foil because they are so delicious. Definitely a keeper!

Bacon Wrapped Hamburgers

Reviewed: Aug. 28, 2009

Very moist without being meatloafy (and I added the egg). I did cook then crumble the bacon in just to give me piece of mind that it was indeed done. Everything else was made per the recipe. This is my new burger recipe. Thanks!

Stuffed Pork Chops III

Reviewed: Jul. 2, 2009

Very delicious! Had only 3 pork loins so went with that. Used all measurements as prescribed except I used chicken broth instead of beef. The 'chops' were done to perfection (so tender!) by the end. I put the leftover stuffing mix into the skillet with another tablespoon of butter, about a cup more broth, and made a nice gravy. Spooned the gravy on the plate first, put the 'chop' on next and it was amazing. Definitely a keeper. Thanks!

French Toast Casserole

Reviewed: Jun. 24, 2009

I made this for a baby shower that was around brunch time and everyone RAVED about it. Sweet enough without being too sweet. Great with or without maple syrup. I doubled the recipe and made it in a 9x13 and even though it didn't look like it was all going to fit, it did. Baked it at the temp recommended for 60 mins. Really great! Highly recommend.

Michelle's Coconut Chicken Curry

Reviewed: Jun. 24, 2009

I didn't have yellow curry powder so I had to substitute red curry paste. I did switch out the cauliflower for the potatoes and carrots, though. I had stir-fry beef instead of chicken on hand so I used that as well. Overall, I felt it was a pretty bland dish. Maybe with all of the suggestions that have been posted it would be better. Good base, though.

Easy Microwave Chocolate Cake

Reviewed: Jun. 24, 2009

I'm only giving it 4 stars because I did add the 1TB cocoa and 1/2 c. sugar instead of what the recipe calls for. But really moist and made enough for 3 servings for me. Great chocolate fix! Thanks!

Ground Beef Lo Mein

Reviewed: Dec. 10, 2008

I thought this was a very creative and delicious way to present a homemade lo mein dish. My family (even my 18 mo. old) ate it up til it was all gone! I definitely will be making this again. Thanks!

Easy Roasted Pork

Reviewed: Nov. 7, 2008

Like others did I first browned the outside (in olive oil) after adding garlic and onion powder, salt, black pepper, and dusting of flour. I doubled the recipe of applesauce, brown sugar, and ginger but had a 1.5 lb roast. Cooked in a tightly covered aluminum foil covered baking sheet. Came out great in the time prescribed. I got compliments all around! Great recipe! Thank you.

Brie Pecan Rollups with Raspberry Sauce

Reviewed: Aug. 16, 2008

I had the worst time trying to make this dish. The cheese mixture would not stay rolled in the chicken at first; but after slapping on a layer of pecans it did. The pecans and raspberry sauce worked well together but I just wasn't a huge fan of the overall dish. Sorry.

Kaese Spaetzle

Reviewed: Jul. 20, 2008

I only made the spaetzle from the recipe but I just wanted to say it was GREAT! I was a little worried about how potent the amount of nutmeg was but it turned out to be a great flavor in the finished dish. Thanks for sharing! Update: Made with whole wheat flour and it was a lot drier than the all-purpose flour spaetzle. But it was still pretty good. I also made the whole wheat spaetzle according to the recipe (with the butter, cheese, and onions) and it turned out so good! I may add more cheese next time, but that's just b/c my family is full of rats. :) Thanks again!

Nikki's Steak Saltimbocca

Reviewed: May 25, 2008

I was first a little hesitant to make this dish because I thought 4 ingredients meant bland taste. But not so at all! I couldn't find prosciutto so I ended up using Canadian Bacon and it was amazing! The fresh sage adds so much depth of flavor to the dish. (And the fried leftover sage was a great garnish.) I used round steaks and pounded them to the appropriate thickness and they turned out great. Thanks so much for sharing this recipe!

Coconut Shrimp I

Reviewed: May 25, 2008

I made everything as stated in the recipe (except I used water instead of beer and didn't chill them at all) with 18 Colossal shrimp and it was AMAZING! Thanks so much for sharing this wonderfully tasty dish.
