Carrot Cake III

Reviewed: Dec. 20, 2011

Wow this recipe is the one, I can finally stop searching - thank you! No changes made.. No need for crushed pineapple, it was moist enough on its own and you can really taste the carrots. Why do you rate a recipe if you've made five hundred thousand changes - submit your OWN recipe then. Stop the madness! lol

Avocado Shrimp Ceviche-Estillo Sarita

Reviewed: Dec. 20, 2011

This was delicious, thank you. It was 10x better the next day too!! I highly recommend making a full day in advance, all the flavors really come together. I didn't make any changes nor do I agree with "rating" a recipe that has had dozens and dozens of changes made :)

White Chocolate Lace Cups

Reviewed: Feb. 13, 2010

Delicious, beautiful and so simple. I used both dark and white chocolate cups and added a lot of different fruits. The kids love it.

Chicken Enchilada Soup III

Reviewed: Jul. 24, 2008

I tried this tonight at the last minute - oh my goodness was it delicious. Hearty and filling, my husband raved over it, and he is very hard to please. I followed the recipe to the T and thank goodness I bought the masa flour, it wouldn't have tasted anything without that actual "enchilada" flavor. Thank you so much this is a keeper.

Stuffed Jalapenos III

Reviewed: Mar. 18, 2008

This was really delicious, they flew off the plate. I also used whole slices of bacon to wrap the jalepeno, otherwise the cream cheese would melt out. I also washed them really well to make it mild. Next time I'll try some cream cheese chives or another flavor. Yummy.

Baked Potato Skins

Reviewed: Dec. 5, 2007

This was so good. I also used the microwave and it cuts more than half the time. Then I add the cooked halved potatoes in the oven as followed. Only thing is I used butter instead of oil as I read somewhere that is how TGIf does it.

Yummy Garlic Croutons

Reviewed: Nov. 29, 2007

Soo good and easy! I almost tried another crouton recipe but this one had one less step and is delicious. I added jalepeno powder that gave it an extra kick. Can't believe all these years I bought croutons, sounds silly to think how easy it is now.

Asian Ginger Dressing

Reviewed: Nov. 26, 2007

Delicious! I followed the recipe exactly except for half sesame/half olive oil as suggested by others. But I did NOT omit the water, because I watch what I eat and the water thins out the dressing without sacrificing the taste. I can't believe I've always bought dressing when these ingredients are always in my pantry, thank you!

Asian Orange Chicken

Reviewed: Mar. 21, 2007

I have to stop trying recipes based on its pictures. This was really weird and we pretty much threw it all out.

Honey Garlic Ribs

Reviewed: Mar. 9, 2007

Whoa was this sauce sweet. I can't imagine why it has to be so incredibly sweet. We don't eat much ribs but I did find it odd that there was two-parts honey to 1-part soy sauce. Normally when I make a sauce or marinade, the recipe is ALWAYS equal parts soy sauce with either sugar or honey or some other sweet ingredient. And it always turns out perfect. We also thought it was very dry as followed. With a few changes, it def has potential to be awesome though.

Sesame Shrimp Stir-Fry

Reviewed: Feb. 22, 2007

Unnessarily complicated. Why do we need directions for cooking rice. The final result is not worth all those measurements. Just ok for us.

Potato Salmon Patties

Very good. We couldn't really taste the potatoes, so next time we'll add more.

April's Deviled Eggs

Reviewed: Feb. 14, 2007

You have to have perfect boiled eggs for this kind of dish. Which means bringing the eggs to a boil, turn off heat, leave them in the water for 18 minutes. They're perfect every time. This had way too much mustard too.

Mango Salsa Salmon

Reviewed: Feb. 14, 2007

These were good and a nice change from the usual. I normally prefer a nice sauce with my salmon though. Or at least some kind of marinade before cooking it.

Easy Vegetable Pot Pie

Reviewed: Feb. 12, 2007

This was so simple. It literally took me 5 minutes to pop into the oven. I skipped the egg part and added some chicken. Who knew chicken pot pie could be so easy. So long Marie Calendars!

Grilled Salmon I

Reviewed: Feb. 11, 2007

This gets a 5 star based on ease, simple ingredients and taste. My husband raved over it. But I have to agree the flavors mute the fish rather than enhance it. So this will be a keeper to mix it up when we don't use our go-to lemon recipe. I'll be trying it on chicken tonight.

Sukhothai Pad Thai

Reviewed: Feb. 6, 2007

Wow this was so delicious. I can't believe what an easy recipe it is. I replaced soy sauce with fish sauce - I think that's really important. And I couldn't find tamarind pulp but we had the powder.. so I don't know if that is the right substitute, but the dish was fantastic. I used shrimp instead of tofu and the bean sprouts and peanuts are sooo important in adding that wonderful texture to this meal. Thanks!

Soft Oatmeal Cookies

Reviewed: Jan. 24, 2007

It was hard to pick from all the other recipes out there, but I thought given its reviews I'd give this a try. Although tasty, it was missing a zing, and not gobbled up by my family as Mrs. Fields or other oatmeal cookies I've bought. So I'll still be on the lookout for a soft - but not doughy- oatmeal cookie!
