Savory Pork Chops

Reviewed: May 21, 2012

Tasty, easy and forgiving (I didn't have soy sauce so used some chili garlic sauce and a bit of rice vinegar). Pork was very tender.

Asparagus, Chicken, and Pecan Pasta

Reviewed: May 21, 2012

I did make some changes but suspect this would be great with any number of changes or none at all. We have one vegetarian, so I used vegetable broth instead of chicken broth (also added the cooked chicken last so I could serve some without). I added a little cajun seasoning and a bit of red pepper flakes. I was pretty liberal with the amounts of ingredients as well as I was fudging a slightly larger batch and I frequently don't measure. Lastly, I toasted the pecans with some shelled pumpkin seeds that I need to use up. Rave reviews from all of us. Thanks for sharing!

Reviewed: Apr. 4, 2012

Easy, delicious and aromatic. Might be a little spicy for some palates, but that's easily adjusted. Thanks for sharing.

Crispy Orange Beef

Reviewed: Aug. 1, 2011

This really was good and quite easy -- a lot of steps -- but none of them difficult. It could also be easily spiced up with red pepper flakes, if you wanted. I'll make it again!

Southwestern Egg Rolls

Reviewed: Feb. 22, 2011

The flavor of the ingredients blends so nicely. I skipped the freezing and baked, rather than fried, and we were still very happy with it. What was nice was that I was able to cook everything without the chicken in it to make a couple of rolls for my vegetarian, then added my cooked chicken for the rest of us. Thanks for sharing!

Sweet, Sticky and Spicy Chicken

Reviewed: Jan. 24, 2011

A different twist on chicken. Very tasty, very easy. Do add flour when browning the chicken. I didn't bother dredging; I just sprinkled some in with the cooking chicken. I also set aside a bit of the sauce and cooked up some fake chicken for my vegetarian. Again, really easy and yummy. I already have requests to make it again. A keeper.

VERY good recipe. Of course, I also adjusted for my family's tastes, but overall the flavors are excellent and we'll make this again. Thanks!

Cuban Shredded Pork

Reviewed: Oct. 5, 2010

Yummy and different way to serve pork. Could have used a bit more flavor for my taste, but still very good as is. Served w/black beans and rice and corn. Will make this again.

Easy Company Chicken

Reviewed: Apr. 8, 2010

Sorry, this one just didn't do it for me. I didn't care for the texture of the sauce and don't feel the curry incorporated smoothly into this recipe. Still edible, but I don't think I'll make it again.

Doris's Shrimp Salad

Reviewed: Dec. 28, 2009

I found this a bit bland, but don't really know what it needed. I should note that it might have been better had I not taken the lazy route and put the salad shrimp in frozen. As they thawed, the salad turned watery - my fault. Even done properly, tho, I think it needs something else. Good potential here.

Sausage and Mushroom Tarts

Reviewed: Dec. 28, 2009

Very good. Some hassle factor, but not too bad, esp. if you have oven space available to keep the batches going. Made a few batches for a family gathering and they were scooped right up.

Guacamole

Reviewed: Dec. 28, 2009

Easy and delicious. Made a large batch for a family gathering and expected to have a lot leftover, but they ate it all! I actually did the right thing and used fresh cilantro and it made all the difference. A keeper.

Mexican Zucchini Casserole

Reviewed: Oct. 28, 2009

A great recipe. I like to double it so my vegetarian can have it as a main dish and the rest of us as a side. Thanks!

Lasagna Spirals

Reviewed: Oct. 15, 2009

Subbed cottage cheese for ricotta and added some seasonings. Cooked it covered with a pile of meatballs in the corner for the meat eaters. There is some nuisance value to rolling it up, but overall a very good recipe. My whole family loved it. Thank you.
