Sarah's Applesauce

Reviewed: Jan. 28, 2011

Great recipe! So easy too! I made it for 2 (mine was 198 calories for a nice sized serving) instead of 4....used braeburn apples and added extra cinnamon, half white and half brown sugar plus a pinch of cloves, a splash of vanilla extract and a shot of brandy...turned out amazing. Total keeper.

Hot and Sour Chicken and Cabbage Soup

Reviewed: Aug. 28, 2010

This is delicious! And easy to prepare. So tasty! I omit the fish sauce and lemon grass and I have used vegetable broth instead of chicken and added extra cabbage and sprouts. Thank you for sharing this awesome recipe.

Artichoke Chicken

Reviewed: Jul. 10, 2010

I had mixed feeling on this. First off its easy and pie to make, very simple and I love that. I used half mayo / half reduced fat sour cream because I don't like mayo...to heavy and fatty for me. I kind of wished I would have used miracle whip but I was scared to deviate from the recipe too much but the mayo was very heavy, veryyyyyy heavy even with only half. My boyfriend who loves heavier eating even said it was a bit much. But it was GOOD. We did both devour it, the heaviness kinda hits you after though. I also used frozen artichoke hearts, which was yummy. I would make this again but I would do a bit differently, it was wayyy to bland so I would season the chicken first and do 80 / 20 sour cream and mayo. A keeper, but needed doctoring for us...

Just okay, I guess it was the vinegar taste that threw us off...

Simply Lemon Baked Chicken

Reviewed: Apr. 25, 2010

This recipe is an excellent base for how to roast a chicken, I followed it but added a few things of my own. I stuff with lemons and oranges, baste very often with a chicken stock, white wine and honey mixture, went heavy on the paprika and sea salt rub and glazed with honey at the end....it turned out delicious! Falling off the bone tender and infused with a nice citrus flavor that was neither to faint or too intense. Really loved the honey on the skin, it was just so delicious and amazingly easy to do...btw...I've never roasted or dressed a whole chicken until this recipe!

Grilled Garlic Artichokes

Reviewed: Apr. 25, 2010

Perfect! Mine boiled up s green and pretty and because it was cold and I don't really have a grill I did the grilling part on my George Forman grill...turned out fabulously. My boyfriend complained that there was no butter be he somehow managed to eat quite a bit and really enjoy these artichokes...so did I and I didn't miss butter or (gag) mayo at all.

Rocky Road

Reviewed: Apr. 25, 2010

This is fabulously tasty and so easy even though it tastes like you spent a ton of time on it. I mixed part of the marshmallows in and left part of them in the pan so the chocolate got poured directly over them. Heavenly....This is easily the best tasting quick dessert Ive ever made.

Caramel Frosting V

Reviewed: Mar. 16, 2010

Mine never got fluffy (think it was me and not the recipe) but it was still amazingly delicious...more like a caramel sauce / glaze than a frosting...

I added spices when I cooked the chicken but this is lackluster at best....

Apple Spice Dump Cake

Reviewed: Feb. 28, 2010

For me this cake was just way to sweet and buttery, overkill...if you know what I mean but my parents loved it. My stepdad actually ate so much my mom asked me not to make it for a while...they loved it but it was just too much. The recipe is sound but I think the apple pie filling just makes it too much. Also the mix of spices was strong and dark which made the cake not to pretty to look at, which I can definately overlook so to speak if the taste is amazing and this just is not...its ok. I might tweak it and try again....

Pear Bundt Cake

Reviewed: Feb. 28, 2010

This is my new favorite cake. I'm crazy about pears and I love the lightness of this cake and the fact thats its not as fatty and full of calories as many cakes. I agree with the comparison to angel food cake but its lighter and more subtle than angel food in my opinion. What I really like to do when I make this cake is peal and slice a ripe fresh Bartlett pear and lay the slices on the bottom of the bundt pan. Ive made this cake in bundt and just a regular 9 x 13 and both ways have their virtues but I prefer the bundt method. Everyone who I have fed this too raves about it, even those who don't have much of a sweet tooth.

Tuna-Stuffed Avocados

Reviewed: Feb. 28, 2010

This was a bit to creamy for me and wayyyyy to cream for my boyfriend. We liked the avocado best in this which I guess was not the point. I'll keep the idea of serving tuna (or chicken or crab) salad in an avocado but leave this particular recipe....

Cream of Fresh Asparagus Soup II

Reviewed: Feb. 27, 2010

So simple and so amazingly tasty and impressive! I didn't have a fresh onion on had so I used those little dehydrated pieces and it was perfect....I made this with great results having never worked with fresh asparagus before, so how much easier can it really get? I used fat free sour cream and did 3/4 cream and 1/4 milk instead of just straight milk. I also went light on the lemon juice. I severed it with a dollop of sour cream, "homemade" pita chips sprayed with butter stuff, seasoned and baked and a sprinkling of cayenne pepper. I'm a bit astounded at how easy it is to make and how delicious and impressive it tastes. Great recipe!

Rum Cake I

Reviewed: Jan. 9, 2010

Great recipe, easy and delicious. I omitted the nuts and used Myers rum and french vanilla pudding mix. I've made chocolate rum cake before...no glaze though so this was basically a first for me and it was so easy. The cake is very rum flavored but its not to much, although there is a lot of that flavor....its just perfect.

Apple Spice Cake

Reviewed: Dec. 28, 2009

This cake turned out amazing! It was so moist and delicious and really easy to make, the hardest part was peeling ans slicing the apples. I skipped the raisins and confectioners sugar and baked it in a regular rectangular pan and it still came out so delicious. This is my go to cake recipe now.

One Pot Tuna Casserole

Reviewed: Dec. 28, 2009

I gave this 5 stars. How could I not? Its a great base. I added salt, pepper, paprika and Worcestershire sauce to the cheese / tuna soup mixture. I also changed the milk to sour cream and added 2 cans of tuna. Oh and I went a little heavy on the cheese. I made this all on the stove top and instructed but then when I was 'done" I transferred it to a casserole pan and covered the top with seasoned breadcrumbs and baked it at 400 for like 25 mins. It came out so tasty and my boyfriend loves it. I have another tuna casserole recipe and honestly its more work and maybe just a little better but it has mushrooms and my boyfriend hates them so he wont eat my original recipe but this one was great since it just had the soup and no additional mushrooms. Although I think you could definitely throw a little can of them in here if you wanted. My only complaint was there really seemed to be a lot of noodles not much "sauce" when I was initially putting it together but after assembling it and baking it it came out just perfect. I suppose if you really want more moisture you could do extra soup / milk and cheese but I wouldn't, this was perfect as was!

One Bowl Chocolate Cake II

Reviewed: Dec. 20, 2009

This was fairly easy to make but I didn't love the recipe, its simply okay...even though I didn't even leave the cake in for close to the recommended time it got overly crispy on the top and sides. Maybe I had the oven to hot...but...meh. This one was not a huge hit for me. EDITTTTTTTTTT, I liked this wayyyyy better once it was chilled, I like my cakes chilled in the fridge because it often improves the tastes / flavors and in this case it really did.
