Pineapple Zucchini Muffins

Reviewed: Mar. 10, 2012

I think this needs less oil and less sugar. I used fresh pineapple chopped up really fine andsqueezed out the zucchini.

I followed this recipe exactly but after I removed the pork and shredded it I drained all the liquid out of the crock, added the pork back, and drizzled with a touch of bottled barbeque sauce. I haven't found a slow cooker pulled pork recipe that I don't have to do that in the end. The pork needed salt but otherwise was a good method. We serve ours with toasted (sometimes buttered) french rolls and sweet pickles on top.

Tam's Black Eye Peas

Reviewed: Jan. 2, 2012

These are out of control GOOD! You can spice them up however but don't leave out the turkey leg! I didn't use sausage, added some bay leaves and celery and used a broth/water combo. I will probably reduce the amount of liquid by atleast a cup next time. YUMMMMMM.

Black Bean Salad

Reviewed: Jun. 25, 2007

This is a GREAT potluck recipe. I get compliments every single time I make this. I have used halved grape tomatoes before. I usually add an extra lime and only use 1/2 a jalapeno.

Raspberry Almond Coffeecake

Reviewed: Jun. 25, 2007

This is so simple and delicious. You could use any berries I think. Yes, is is thinner compared to a slice of cake but I like that. I only had to bake mine for 25 mintues so I would definately watch the time.

Hot Milk Sponge Cake I

Reviewed: Apr. 5, 2007

YUM! Let is be said I am not the best baker, this is actually the first time I've ever baked a cake-- IT WAS SO GOOD! Better than any bake mix I've ever used. This was so easy, too! I used 1/2 & 1/2 instead of milk, "light" butter and added a pinch of salt. I only used 1 tablespoon of milk for the topping and omitted the nuts. The cake was light and fuffy and moist! This is a keeper!

Double Chocolate Mocha Trifle

Reviewed: Nov. 6, 2006

I rarely rate something 5 stars but people LOVED this! I made several changes; Whipped my own whipped cream (added about 1/4 sugar), used devil's food cake instead of brownies & used a chopped up toffee almond chocolate bar. I topped it with whipped cream, then the candy. I served this at a party w/ several other desserts and this one was the show stopper! It's really good! I will make again!

Pina Colada III

Reviewed: Sep. 13, 2006

YUM! These are not like the premade bottled version, they are much better!! Not very slushy unless you atleast double the ice. I add 1/2 cup more rum and prefer the coconut milk from Thailand....

Cranberry Walnut Slaw

Reviewed: Jun. 22, 2006

This was DELISH! I subbed green onions for regular onions, added more walnuts (toasted). I found there to be alot of oil & dressing so I'll probably 1/2 the oil and chill out on the dressing next time.

Lemon Soup

Reviewed: Jun. 19, 2006

I like this soup because it uses so few ingredients, takes very little time and tastes good. HOWEVER, I don't know if it is because I halfed the recipe or my soup got too hot (?) but the egg mixture broke and it didn't really thicken the soup at all. Also, I opted not to beat the white and yolk seperate, I frothed them together very well as I have seen in other recipes for this soup. Either way it was a great quickie soup! I added parsley for color.

This recipe is so yummy! Tastes like chicken parm stuffed shells. I think the keys are *chop chicken really small, almost a mince and *get yummy creamy mozz, not the salty hard rubbery stuff! Will be put in rotation!

Chocolate Pudding Cake II

Reviewed: Mar. 9, 2006

I like the idea of this recipe, its like a fluffy chocolate cake with a hot pudding sauce but the taste was too floury. It may have been the cocoa powder I used but something still wasn't right with the taste.

Brie Pecan Rollups with Raspberry Sauce

Reviewed: Feb. 15, 2006

I'm sorry but this just wasn't there for us. The onion/garlic mixture was bizarre with the berries, it was greasy and the cheese came out of the middle. Will not make again.

Amazing Whole Wheat Pizza Crust

Reviewed: Feb. 5, 2006

Easy recipe. We found one recipe enough for 2 pizzas. They were not very fluffy but were very tasty and healthy. We made a white pizza: Take 2 tablespoons of EVOO and add one cracked garlic clove and 1/4 red pepper flake and let infuse for 1 hour. Add oil on top of crust with 1/2 cup fontina 1/2 cup mozzerella 1/2 cup cooked diced chicken and 1/2 cup thawed and squeezed dry frozen spinach. YUM!

Herb Rubbed Sirloin Tip Roast

Reviewed: Jan. 28, 2006

Spice blend was very subtle, a little too subtle for our taste, especially with a bland sirloin roast. Also, the cooking time was way off. Will not use again.
