Chocolate Cornstarch Pudding

Reviewed: Dec. 4, 2011

Exactly how good old fashioned chocolate pudding should taste! I increased cocoa to 4 T and served with whipped cream dusted with cocoa powder.

I have made this a few times and this recipe has become a family favorite. It's delicious as written but I've also varied the veggies as follows: asparagus, pine nuts, artichoke hearts, mushrooms, zucchini, etc. (Not all at the same time, of course, just whatever we were in the mood for!) Grocery store rotisserie chicken provides a great head start. I also use more pesto.

One Hundred Thousand Calorie Bars

Reviewed: Apr. 3, 2011

Didn't care for these at all. Bland flavor and overly sweet.

Mahogany Chicken Wings

Reviewed: Jul. 24, 2010

I was skeptical when I put these in the oven. The glaze was bland looking and thin and didn't appear to be sticking to the chicken. But during the baking process, the glaze thickened and browned and created a delicious coating for the wings. This will become a new regular on my menu rotation.

Cake Balls

Reviewed: Aug. 10, 2009

Aside from the mess that comes with dipping in chocolate, these were easy and quite a crowd pleaser.

Garlic Parmesan Monkey Bread

Reviewed: Apr. 19, 2009

This was terrific. I made a couple changes: omitted scallions; doubled the butter and garlic powder. I used frozen dinner rolls and cut roughly into fourths. After whisking together eggs, seasoning and melted butter, I tossed the bread balls in the mixture until all were coated and then tossed in the Parmesan. I split the recipe into two very well greased loaf pans. The crusty top and edges are the best!!

Texas Caviar I

Reviewed: Feb. 3, 2009

This is always a hit. Very colorful and flavor is great. I always make it at least 6 hours ahead. A tip if you have leftovers: I used it in soup. Add bean dip to following ingredients: 1 can chicken broth, 1 can of tomato soup, 1 cup salsa, 2 cups chopped chicken, chili powder, cumin. Simmer for 30 minutes and you have a delicious chicken chili.

Blueberry Coffee Cake I

Reviewed: Jan. 28, 2009

Fantastic recipe. I made as directed except substituted half and half for the milk (just needed to use it up) and used frozen blueberries. I baked in a 10" round pan for approximately 50 minutes and it turned out perfect. Very moist and delicious. I liked the idea of putting some streusel in the middle and will do that next time.

Brunswick Stew

Reviewed: Jan. 18, 2009

This is almost identical to a recipe I've been making for 25 years. the only thing I do differently is add a few teaspoons of sugar and when the potatoes are cooked, I remove a few, mash them and return to the stew to thicken. The flavors in this are outstanding.

Simple Scones

Reviewed: Jan. 7, 2009

I subbed 1/3 cup heavy cream for the sour cream (that's what I had in the fridge) and used cranberries instead of raisins. Also added zest grated from one orange. I glazed with 1/4 c powdered sugar and 1-2 t orange juice.

Chicken Pot Pie IX

Reviewed: Jan. 7, 2009

Terrific recipe. I modified as follows: Doubled the recipe and eliminated the bottom crusts. Used a Rotisserie chicken from the grocery store. After doubling the recipe, I had enough for three pie pans. The flavor is outstanding.

Slow-Cooked German Short Ribs

Reviewed: Jan. 6, 2009

Wow wow wow. I loved this recipe. I made a couple very minor revisions: Doubled the sauce based on other reviewers (good call); added mushrooms; subbed ketchup for the chili sauce. The sauce is unbelievably good. After cooking in the crockpot for 6 hours, I removed the beef and refrigerated the sauce separate from the meat. It was easy the next day to remove the fat from the top of the sauce. I made a roux of butter and flour and slightly thickened the sauce. Added the beef to reheat and served over mashed potatoes with roasted carrots on the side. If you don't care for or don't have short ribs, this recipe would work just fine with beef cubes or pot roast. I will definitely be making this one again.

Yummy Cheese Ball

Reviewed: Dec. 22, 2008

Makes a very large cheeseball. Like other reviewers, I added some garlic and onion powder. I omitted the green onions only because I forgot to buy them. I used approx. 3/4 lb of bacon and it was plenty in my opinion. I took it to a party and to be honest, it wasn't that big a hit. People seem to prefer the shrimp tray and a dip - main ingredients were corn and mayo - served with fritos.

The Best Lemon Bars

Reviewed: Dec. 22, 2008

Like everyone else, I increased the amount of lemon juice. I used the juice of three lemons and the zest from one lemon. I baked it in a 9x9 square pan because we like thicker bars. Increased the baking time by about 5 minutes.

Grilled Salmon I

Reviewed: Dec. 22, 2008

Delicious marinade for the Salmon. I omitted the water and added the juice of half a lemon. The cover was frozen onto the grill so I broiled the salmon and it was fantastic.
