This is a good simple recipe but nothing about it says "wow"

I also made some changes to this recipe. I used splenda and brown sugar instead of the white sugar and no one could tell the difference. I also double the amount of spices suggested and used pumpkin pie spice in thier place. These are absolutely delicious right out of the oven. The only reason I gave 4 instead of 5 stars is because the next day the seem to loss something and taste a little grainy.

Shrimp And Onion Stew

Reviewed: Jun. 29, 2004

I love onions and my husband loves shrimp but neither one of us much enjoyed this recipe. I ate one shrimp and that was more than enough for me. The following day I rinsed off the left over shrimp and put them on a salad. Other reviews seemed to like this recipe but I'm sorry to say it is just not for us.

Sambousa

Reviewed: Jun. 28, 2004

My husband and I both found this recipe to be rather bland. I also found it much easier to use the traditional egg roll shape rather than the triangle (easier to fold and less oil gets inside) and found that a beaten egg holds the seams much better than the flour and water mixture. If I do try this recipe again I will definately be adding more seasoning like cumin, parsley, etc...

Emily's Famous Sloppy Joes

Reviewed: Jun. 24, 2004

The flavor was nice but it was way to sweet. Next time I will use only 1 TBSP of brown sugar. I also added a touch of red pepper to spice it up. I didn't have the hamburger buns but it worked great with whole wheat pita bread.

Aunt Teresa's Chicken

Reviewed: Jun. 24, 2004

This recipe was very simple and tasty. I took the advice of some previous reviewers and added some extras. I used boneless, skinless chicken breasts, sprinkled them with chopped garlic, seasoned salt, red and black pepper, thyme, oregano,parsley, and ground sage. I put 8 oz. of sliced mushrooms over the chicken and on top I used 1 can cream of mushroom and 1 cream of broccoli. It was great and smelled wonderful as it was baking!

Spaghetti with Corned Beef

Reviewed: Jun. 23, 2004

I was a little unsure about this recipe but it turned out better than expected. I used 2 cups of sauce instead of one because it looked really thick. I also added about 3x's the amount of italian seasoning. It was good but not fabulous and it does work well as a quick meal using ingredients on hand in the pantry (especially if you forgot to thaw something for dinner.) I would use this recipe again if I needed to make a hot meal in a pinch.

Herb Rubbed Sirloin Tip Roast

Reviewed: May 26, 2004

I cut the seasonings in half,reduced the salt down to a sprinkle and used a 1lb 1 inch thick sirloin tip steak then broiled it for about ten minutes on each side. It came out fabulous! My husband loved it so much I hardly got any myself. Thanks for the great recipe.

Baked Salmon II

Reviewed: May 11, 2004

Good recipe. I skipped the oil because the salmon is fatty enough on its own.

Chicken and Mushroom Saute

Reviewed: May 11, 2004

I can't believe how good this is! It is so simple and tasty. I used 8oz fresh sliced mushrooms instead of the canned and added a little extra cornstarch to make the sauce nice and thick and rather then put the chicken back in the sauce I just kept the chicken warm in the oven then poured the sauce over the chicken before serving for a great presentation.

Best Ever Chuck Wagon Chili

Reviewed: May 11, 2004

Yum, great recipe. I only used one pound of ground beef and one can of tomato sauce and a can of diced tomatoes, then added some cumin, oregano and a teaspoon of cocoa. I also skipped the habanero and added a sprinkle of ground red pepper instead of the hot sauce. This is great served with tortilla chips and tastes even better the second day. It's great served with a little shredded cheddar and some fresh chopped onion.

I am not a big fan of squid but I thought this recipes was alright. However, my husband (a seafood fanatic) loves this recipe especially on top of a green salad.

Blackened Tuna

Reviewed: Apr. 15, 2004

This recipe is fabulous. It is the best way to eat ahi tuna steaks. It works great the next day on a salad with a little bit of toasted almond.

Quick Pickled Eggs and Beets

Reviewed: Oct. 21, 2003

This is a great simple recipe. I did not use the cinnamon and took the advice of another reviewer and let them set 4 days. The only thing I will change next time is the amount of sugar. It was too sweet for my taste. I will use this recipe again.
