Russian Green Bean and Potato Soup

Reviewed: Oct. 27, 2011

I made this tonight and definitely overate as I had 2 bowls. I find this a truely addictive soup. I do not think that it would be the same with canned beans so would recommend that if fresh is not available use frozen but I think fresh is best. Thank you for the recipe, this will be a new go to comfort soup.

Amish Hash Browns

Reviewed: Jun. 19, 2011

Very tasty, next time though I won't add any oil to pan to fry them as turned out a bit too greasy but nothing patting them with paper towels couldn't "fix". I shredded the onion on the same box shredder I did the potatoes on and worked perfectly. Did make 1/2 the recipe as written and the other 1/2 with some additions, both ways were very good. Will be saving this recipe and making again. Thank you.

Spinach, Caramelized Onion, and Muenster Au Gratin Potatoes

Reviewed: Apr. 25, 2011

The only reason I left off the 5th star was due to the cooking instructions. If I had followed as written I would have had undercooked and very dry potatoes: instead when I checked at the 30 min mark I realized that I had to leave them covered for the additional 20 minutes. The flavor of the cheese sauce is to die for though, I could have sat very happily with a spoon and the pot and devoured the cheese sauce. I am planning to make the cheese sauce again and try with other foods. Thanks!

Outback Onion Soup

Reviewed: Nov. 25, 2009

Have made the soup twice and found that I had made a mistake the 1st time but to my surprise it is the way I will always make it now. The time to simmer onions is too long, total simmer time should only be 1 hr or the onions simply disintergrate. Thanks for the recipe, it is now a family favorite.

Garlic Parmesan Orzo

Reviewed: Apr. 21, 2009

I have made this dish several times now to include at a buffet luncheon at the American Legion, there were no leftovers! If you let the orzo sit too long, it will clump, you simply need to use a little extra arm power to break up the clumps while adding it to the rest of the ingredients, it then keeps well on the table. Thank you for a great recipe. This is a great base for a main dish as well, I added leftover ham and asparagus from Easter, soooo good. Thanks again.

Southern Fried Cabbage

Reviewed: Apr. 9, 2009

Here in New England fried cabbage is a must. This recipe very good, never any leftovers no matter how large the head of cabbage. Thanks! The only thing I do differently is fry a bit longer for a little more color & depth of flavor.

Restaurant-Style Buffalo Chicken Wings

Reviewed: Apr. 9, 2009

This is the only recipe I use for wings now. I will never "order out" for wings again. In my house we cook all the wings with the seasoning recipe but then because of different prefered heat levels we make the sauce to taste adjusting the hot sauce to butter ratio. Thank you so much for this recipe.

Chicken Pot Pie with Cheddar Crust

Reviewed: Jan. 25, 2008

This recipe is okay, but when I put this much time into a meal I want it to be much more remarkable. As written, this recipe is very bland, even after I added poultry seasoning to the sauce. Will not make this recipe again.
