Excellent flavors...exotic combination! That being said I modified it a little. I doubled the hot sauce, used reduced sodium soy sauce, only used one red bell pepper and 5 cups vs 8 cups of shredded cabbage. Delightful :-) I'll definitely make this one again!

Marinade for Chicken

Reviewed: Sep. 20, 2011

Easy to assemble...accessible ingredients...it doesn't get much better than that! I only used 1/2 cup of oil and still had enough marinade for over a pound of chicken tenders. I love the caramel glaze you get at the end of cooking time. Good flavor and SO MUCH BETTER than ANYTHING you can buy premade at the store!

Tater Tot Casserole I

Reviewed: Jan. 1, 2011

This is one of the easiest, and most delicious breakfast casserole recipes I've ever used! I used Tennessee Pride hot breakfast sausage and didn't even have to add any more seasonings to it! While frying the sausage, I also added 1 cup diced onion. You can add or subtract things from the main recipe to make it as simple or complex as you want. I just can't say enough about this one...I'll be making it a LOT!

Carrot Cake XI

Reviewed: Dec. 5, 2010

I made this cake last night and it was exceptionally easy! It turned out moist and tasty...even to my guy who is not a carrot cake fan! I altered the recipe slightly: 1) I ran out of oil so I had to use a little shortening to make the amount of oil required. 2) I didn't have any chopped walnuts so I added 3/4 cup raisins instead - it was a good choice! I will definitely make this one again. When I do, I will also add a bit more spice. Only 2 teaspoons of ground cinnamon was simply not enough for my taste...I'm thinking some nutmeg, allspice or something along those lines. And as far as the cream cheese frosting, I found a recipe here on AllRecipes.com (included in another carrot cake recipe I found :) and it was the cream cheese frosting recipe I've been looking for since I started cooking! It was quick, easy and delicious and the recipe makes quite a bit extra to be used on other baked goods.

Fruitcake Cookies

Reviewed: Dec. 18, 2008

I made several batches last year at Christmas and have been asked to make more this year! They are incredibly easy to make and more delicious than I ever expected a cookie with the word "Fruitcake" in the name!

Easy Stovetop Peach Cobbler

Reviewed: Nov. 12, 2008

I prepared this recipe over a campfire in April 2008, and it was a HUGE hit! It is soooo easy! And I believe the charm of cooking it over an open flame adds to the flavor enhancement!

Banana Banana Bread

Reviewed: Nov. 12, 2008

This recipe has got to be one of the best banana bread recipes I've ever tried. The resulting bread was particularly moist, and I liked the fact that it calls for more banana than most of the banana breads I've made! If I would've had some chopped pecans or walnuts to add, it would have been simply delightful!

Baked Spaghetti

Reviewed: Feb. 15, 2008

This was a wonderful recipe! There was SO much food to begin with, it would not all fit in a 13x9x2 pan! I had to separate it out into two! I will DEFINITELY make this again...for a pitch-in or family gathering or something. It is very simple and very tasty!
