Breakfast Rounds

Reviewed: Sep. 12, 2009

We subbed sunflower seed butter for the peanut butter due to allergies and it was still delicious. What a great idea this is and a huge hit with the kids!

Amazing Brown Rice Salad

Reviewed: Aug. 13, 2006

This was okay, but it seemed like something was missing. I would add less sugar. Might add some nuts next time - toasted slivered almonds or walnuts.

World's Best Vegan Pancakes

Reviewed: Aug. 12, 2006

When you add more milk (about 1/2 cup at least), these really are the BEST vegan pancakes we've made! No custard powder to be found here so we subbed the equal amount of vanilla pudding mix.

Chicken Salad with Peaches and Walnuts

Reviewed: Jun. 28, 2006

I've tried this recipe before and it's a good one. However, it's from the Epicurious.com website and was published in Bon Appetit in 1994. Boo on the poster who didn't give credit where credit is due!

Chili I

Reviewed: Oct. 16, 2005

I've made this using the original recipe and since then with modifications. As is, I give it a 3 , but with modifications it's a 5 so I gave it an average of 4. All that tomato paste and brown sugar makes for one very sweet chili. I lessened the tomato paste to 1 can, and only used about 1-2 tbsp brown sugar and after that the results were fantastic. Yum!

Grandmother's Oatmeal Cookies

Reviewed: Feb. 3, 2005

5 stars if you use butter, 4 stars if you don't. In the words of my husband after trying the batch made with butter - "Wow!"

Currant Jelly Wiener Sauce

Reviewed: Dec. 27, 2004

Gave this 5 stars because it was a huge hit at our annual Christmas party and I think people should try this recipe out! Even my picky 4.5 year old ate it up. If it were just me, I'd give it 4 because c'mon, it's just little weiners in jelly, mustard and ketchup sauce! Not exactly gourmet fare here. I was sceptical because of the nature of the dish, but I found it delicious as well! Anyway, I used sliced kielbasa instead of the little smokies. I also simmered it in the slow cooker for almost 5 hours. After 2 hours it was still pretty mustardy, but at some point between 4-5 hours, the sauce started becoming a saucy glaze on the sausage and it was yummy!

Awesome Sausage, Apple and Cranberry Stuffing

Reviewed: Nov. 28, 2004

Made this for Thanksgiving and found it just average. I was looking forward to trying it because of the stellar reviews it has received here. Man, was I disappointed! Everything just blended together too seamlessly - it had no punch. Maybe it should have had some salt added or even pepper. It just didn't do it for me. Honestly, Stovetop Stuffing has more flavour...I wouldn't call it "awesome" - "okay" is more like it.

Peanut Butter Chip Chocolate Cookies

Reviewed: Nov. 14, 2004

This recipe makes AWESOME cookies. My first batch came out perfectly. Soft with just a bit of crunch. The flavour is perfect. A winner!

Shepherd's Pie IV

Reviewed: Nov. 14, 2004

I made this tonight and the only change I made was to halve the recipe. I was very unimpressed. While I liked the addition of green beans and cauliflower, the dish was very bland. I had to double the milk because the potatoes were too dry. I don't think the cream cheese added anything special to the mashed potatoes. Would have liked something with more oomph.

Jay's Signature Pizza Crust

Reviewed: Aug. 22, 2004

It was okay - I made this recipe by mistake thinking it was another one I had tried on the website and I was sorely disappointed. While the crust was slightly crispy, it was also overly chewy. I would have been willing to forgive this if it had any flavour, but it didn't! Blah.

Pizza Crust for the Bread Machine II

Reviewed: Jul. 8, 2004

Wow! Cynic that I am, I was not expecting much from this recipe given the poor outcome I had with another pizza crust recipe from the site. This is the *best* (and easiest) homemade pizza crust I have ever made. We used a large cookie sheet and prebaked the crust so we got a somewhat crunchier result than I imagine others have gotten, but it was GOOD. Great flavour! Next time I'll try adding herbs and maybe parmesan cheese to the crust too. YUM!

Sam's Famous Carrot Cake

Reviewed: Apr. 12, 2004

This review is for the cake only. DH who is not a baker/cook/etc by any stretch of the imagination made it and got rave reviews. One taster said it was "the best carrot cake I've ever had!" Left out the raisins, though, and frosted with cream cheese frosting. Fab recipe!!

Apple Cranberry Wheat Muffins

Reviewed: Apr. 4, 2004

I really wanted to like these muffins, but I found them to be quite wanting in flavour. Needs more oomph, but not sure what.

Best Tuna Casserole

Reviewed: Jul. 10, 2002

I made this using reduced fat/sodium cream of mushroom and cream of celery soup and I also substituted fresh mushrooms for the canned. After reading the other reviews, I added about 3/4 c. milk to make it moister. I didn't like the way it tasted hot out of the oven, but leftovers the next day, and the next were tastier and the addition of peas really makes the difference, I think. I forgot to add them in when I put the casserole in the oven, so I served them as a side dish. This recipe didn't knock my socks off, but it was okay. I liked the addition of potato chips for the topping.
