Made this pretty much as written. The only changes I made were to use a small can of chopped jalapeno peppers instead of chopping a green bell pepper, and used salsa instead of picante sauce, (don't really see the difference between the two) and Monterey Jack cheese, instead of cheddar, ( I just can't reconcile cheddar cheese belonging on a Mexican dish). Everything else was made as written. This is very good, but next time I will definately leave out the cinnamon, I just didn't like the subtle cinnamon taste, hence the 4 star rating.

This recipe is delicious, and can easily be "heat" adjusted. If you want to save a step, You can use the same amount of Velveeta cheese,in lieu of the cream cheese, and shredded cheddar. I have done this, and it's still delicious.

This banana bread is sooooo good. The only thing I did differently, was to mash my bananas instead of slicing them. Otherwise, followed the recipe as written. FYI: after I greased my Pyrex loaf dish, I dusted it with a mixture of cinnamon and sugar,then poured the batter in. It cooked perfectly in 60 min. Yummmmy

I gave these only 4 stars, because, even though they tasted good, I wasn't crazy about the texture. I've never had Pecan Sandies, but that is how I would describe the texture of these cookies, um, well, sandy. Even though they were very easy to make, I wouldn't make them again unless I were desperate for a sweet cookie and out of eggs. Also, based on other reviews,I added a tsp of vanilla extract to the mix, and chocolate chips instead of the nuts,(personal preference).

I gave this recipe 4 stars, because it is very good, but to say it tastes like a reuben, is in my, and my 40 yr. old daughters opinion, a real stretch. She can be a food critic to reckon with, and believes she's a Reuben sandwich aficianado, however, both she and I did like this casserole. The only change I made was to add a couple of Tblsp of Thousand Island drsng. to the soup mix.

I have to agree with some of the other reviewers,this recipe would have been very bland if I hadn't made several additions: about 6oz grated cheddar cheese,broccoli florets and ample salt and pepper that I mixed in the soups and sour cream mixture,which I added about 1/2 soup can of water to get the consistancy that I wanted. Also, I cant believe that the 6 oz's of egg noodles is not a typo. I added about 20 oz or so of dry egg noodles, (before boiling) and the casserole still came out very creamy after baking. I also added grated parmesan cheese to the cracker crumbs for the topping. After all that, the finished casserole was delicious. This is a good base recipe for personal additions,which is why I gave it only 4 stars.

I hope people realize that the 20 red,ripe tomatoes are medium to large in size, and not cherry or grape tomatoes. Also the original recipe called for 6 "stalks" of celery, but evidentally computers don't recognize "stalk" so I had to estimate cups. Hope you enjoy this relish as much as I do.
