Best Bourbon Chicken

Reviewed: Sep. 26, 2010

Delish! We have this now about once a wk. We make a lot of chicken so it was nice to find another way to prepare it. I have always used "cran-grape" juice in place of the apple-grape-cherry juice and chicken broth instead of bourbon.

Tiger Butter II

Reviewed: Dec. 24, 2009

Yum! My family loved this. Our daughter used to get this all of the time at a candy shop when we lived in Ga. I must say this was just as good! Melts in your mouth. I melted everything in the microwave on 30 second intervals, stirring in between. I used about a Tablespoon of shortening in the semi sweet chips to help with the melting. This was so quick and easy. I've already passed on the recipe!

Sweet Restaurant Slaw

Reviewed: Jun. 30, 2009

I'm picky when it comes to coleslaw, but this one made the cut. I didn't use poppy seeds since I didn't have any. And instead of miracle whip, I used Hellman's Light Mayo. I do wish I had chopped the coleslaw up more, but that isn't a big deal.

Chicken and Bacon Shish Kabobs

Reviewed: Apr. 13, 2009

This turned out pretty good, but I didn't get to marinate it long at all. Honestly, less than an hour! I used Olive oil instead of Canola. Did not use bacon. Added peppers and sweet onions to this.. and it was another winner for dinner! Next time, I'll marinate longer and use the bacon!!!!

Easy Honey Mustard Mozzarella Chicken

Reviewed: Apr. 13, 2009

I pounded the chicken breast to about 1/2 inch thick with a tenderizer. I used cheddar/monteray jack blend cheese b/c I had that on hand. I cooked in oven until juices ran clear. This was devoured at dinner! I will put this into my regular rotation of dinners...

Honey Baked Chicken II

Reviewed: Jan. 20, 2009

Average rating from our family would be a 4. I thought it was good. Don't know what I really expected of it. I used Coarse Ground Mustard and a little less butter than it called for. There was WAY too much sauce, I only poured half over the chicken and still only basted with what was in the pan. I used boneless/skinless breasts and pounded them to about 1/2 inch thick. They were cooked in 30 minutes or less. Next time I try this, I will maybe use another mustard to see if I prefer it. My picky eater ate some, My hard to please eater LOVED it and went back for 2nds, my husband enjoyed it as well. We served with rice and I actually used a tad of the pan sauce over the rice.

Twice-Baked Potatoes Supreme

Reviewed: Jan. 17, 2009

Thought these were pretty good. I had to find a potato without using sour cream. I scaled the recipe for 6, and cooked one piece of bacon and crumbled it into the mixture. I also added some shredded parmesan cheese to the mixture. I personally didn't care for the powdery kind on top of the potato (even though I didn't use much) I'll use the shredded on top as well next time. I loved these done in the oven rather than micro b/c of the crispy outside.

Salsa Chicken Burrito Filling

Reviewed: Jan. 15, 2009

I enjoyed this recipe and made it as directed, however, next time I make it I will use the lower sodium Taco seasoning. I didn't think it was too salty at first, but the more I ate, I knew I'd never make it as is again. My husband thought there was too much sauce and didn't enjoy it that much. I also added sauteed onions/peppers. It was yummy. :)

Mama's Tomato Gravy

Reviewed: May 13, 2008

I've made Tomato Gravy in the past, but never had actually seen a recipe for it. I didn't have tomato paste, so used tomato sauce instead (just used a tad more flour to make sure it would thicken) and once the gravy started thickening, I added some Petite diced tomatoes. We use this over rice... never had over biscuits.

Angel Shrimp Pasta

Reviewed: Feb. 25, 2008

Another Keeper!!! I used Mexican Velveeta and couldn't use the full amount it called for, and glad I didn't since my children found it too spicy.

Buttery Cooked Carrots

Reviewed: Feb. 25, 2008

Fantastic. My husband wasn't going to try these, but once he did... he hate more than anyone else. I used regular carrots and sliced them like coins.

Anniversary Chicken I

Reviewed: Feb. 25, 2008

I struggled with giving this a 3 or 4. I had high hopes for this recipe w/such a high rating by so many.. however no one was that happy w/this recipe. We eat a LOT of chicken here, and this, neither of my daughters would eat. No one even really cared for the ranch on the chicken, so, if I ever make this again, it will be with bbq sauce rather than ranch and I will use less oil to 'brown' the chicken. The toppings were great. YUM.

Cara's Creamy Stuffed Shells

Reviewed: Mar. 7, 2007

We thought this was 'alright'. I used 1.5 lbs of ground meat but still felt like I either should have used less meat or more cream cheese.

Three Cheese Manicotti II

Reviewed: Jul. 24, 2006

I thought this was a great start... I added more garlic and my own seasonings to a 'jarred sauce'. I also added ground meat to the sauce. This was a big hit with everyone.. even my picky eater!!! I also added more cheese, and even though I didn't have enough Mozzerella for the top, I used Provolone and it was great! THANKS

Garlic Chicken

Reviewed: Jul. 24, 2006

The first time I made this, no one could get enough, and there were no leftovers. It was a crispy outside, YUMM! Next time, I should have drained the olive oil off a little more, b/c it wasn't as crunchy. Something I'll def keep in my recipe box though! MMM

Broccoli Chicken Fettuccini Alfredo

Reviewed: Jul. 12, 2006

We loved the taste of this sauce! I added garlic. I think I cooked longer due to my noodles taking longer than expected, so the sauce thickened too much. Either way, I'll def make again, just start my noodles sooner :) Thanks for another great addition to my dinners :)

Restaurant-Style Tequila Lime Chicken

Followed recipe and I didn't care for it. If I make again, I will omit the liquid smoke and water per other suggestions. I REALLY wanted to like this! :(

Summer Chicken Burgers

Reviewed: May 22, 2006

My husband loves these and I like that they are quick and easy! I like to pound the chicken so it isn't so thick then I think they are of course, best cooked on the grill. The avocado is my husbands fav!
