Peanut Butter and Banana Dog Biscuits

Reviewed: Mar. 18, 2012

I've made this several times now, with a few variations: Because of the different types of peanut butter I've used, I have had to adjust the flour. Just keep adding until you get to the rolling consistancy that you need. I substituted canned pumpkin for the banana because I've heard it is excellent for dogs. I didn't use the entire can, obviously, so I put the rest in baggies and froze for later recipes. I've put in leftover rice and quinoa, I've used a dab of oatmeal, I've grated up carrots.. As you can tell, I've monkeyed around with it quite a bit and my dogs still love me anyway.

Vegan Baked Beans

Reviewed: Aug. 5, 2011

The cinnamon and nutmeg are a nice change from your usual baked beans. I actually liked the flavor, but my husband thought it was so-so.. Nothing wrong with modifying it a bit and leaving it out if you want. I also thought the bay leaves were a stroke of genius!

Raspberry Almond Coffeecake

Reviewed: Apr. 1, 2011

I've made this recipe 3 times. I too thought the batter was a bit thick, hard to spread, and a little on the sparse side. However it turned out beautifully. I really think if the batter was increased by 1/2 it would be just about perfect. Nevertheless, it is a beautifully simple coffee cake that doesn't even need a mixer. The almonds are a wonderful combination with the berries. In the end, it was delicious and simple to make.

BREAKSTONE'S Creamy Layered Enchilada Bake

Reviewed: May 2, 2009

Not my cup of tea but my husband liked it. A bit too meaty and saucy with not enough tortillas. I don't know if I will make again

Too Much Chocolate Cake

Reviewed: Mar. 31, 2009

It was OK. People liked it, but I can't say it was the bet I've ever tasted. It did have that "cake mix taste"... Maybe I'm too picky...

Chocolate Banana Bread

Reviewed: Feb. 25, 2009

I always have over-ripe bananas on hand because I just pop them in the freezer when I have one or two laying around. When I get enough I make banana bread. We thought the banana flavor came through very nicely, even though it is a chocolate banana bread. I added walnuts and a teaspoon of salt (I was suprised it didn't call for salt.) By far one of the best quickbreads I've made. December 2011...Made this again and added one cup of coconut... WOW!!!

Ruby Red Layered Salad

Reviewed: Jan. 12, 2009

It's beautiful!!! I really liked it, but gave it four stars because it was very very sweet. I used sugar free jello and people were shocked that I did...I'll make it again, though

Tangy Mango Slaw

Reviewed: Mar. 23, 2008

This is going to go PERFECTLY with my barbecued short ribs that I am fixing today. I picked it because it calls for ZERO oil or mayo. If you like a tangy cole slaw, you will love this. I heeded what others said and used the same amount of dressing in twice the amount of cabbage.

Pumpkin Bread IV

Reviewed: Oct. 20, 2007

Yup, this is the one to die for. I liked this recipe a lot because you can use the large can of pumpkin puree, unlike most pumpkin bread recipes. The other plus is that this calls for half baking powder and half baking soda. Don't fall for those recipes that call for all baking soda because you can really taste it in the bread. The only change I made to this was to cut the oil down to one cup. This recipe really is "the best".

Spicy Pumpkin Bread

Reviewed: Oct. 20, 2007

What I LIKED about this recipe: The idea of using brown sugar AND rum extract. Also it's one of the few recipes that call for the LARGE can of pumpkin, which is what I had. BUT...this is NOT my favorite pumpkin bread. I HATE the taste of the baking soda. Ugh! And believe me, when you use one tablespoon, you can really taste it. Check out "Pumpkin Breat IV" on Allrecipes, so much better, folks. Trust me.

Perfumed Coconut Cake

Reviewed: Jul. 26, 2007

WOW. I think I died and went to heaven. After a dry run last week, I made this cake again with a couple of small changes, which I think improved it, even though it is an AWESOME cake just as it is. First, I added 1/2 cup of shredded coconut to the batter, and the biggest and the best change was that I made a cream cheese frosting, adding the coconut extract. I always slightly underbake my cakes and I suggest you do the same...

Double Tomato Bruschetta

Reviewed: Jul. 1, 2007

My guests loved it. I thought it was missing something. Maybe feta cheese instead of mozzarella? Maybe kalamata olives??? That would be yummy. I'll try that next time. Also, as others reviewers stated: BE VERY CAREFUL WHILE BROILING. The time stated is WAY TOO LONG. I burned my first batch to a crisp!!

Neiman Marcus Cake I

Reviewed: May 19, 2007

When they say that this cake is REALLY REALLY SWEET and is more like a brownie, TAKE HEED!! I even used 1/2 cup less powdered sugar. I also added one egg and 1/2 cup water to the cake mixture because I wanted it more cakey. I also didn't like the way the topping was too crispy on the top. I guess what I was thinking of was a more cream cheesy, softer, topping and this definitely was not that. I'll pass on making it again..

Banana Banana Bread

Reviewed: May 13, 2007

My bread turned out SO-O-O-O-O heavy, dense and undone. I really think that there is too much banana for the amount of flour. I may try this again just to see if it turns out and then I will change my rating if necessary. Since so many people rated this so high maybe I did something wrong.

Slow-Cooker Chicken Tortilla Soup

Reviewed: Apr. 16, 2007

If you're looking for an easy dinner, just try this one!! I loved this recipe for the ease of cooking!! As per other raters, just put the frozen, raw chicken in and when you see it is done, take it out and shred it. I normally don't like my chicken "boiled" but this was just fine. The only reason this got four stars is that my husband liked it, but didn't RAVE about it. Oh yeah, I used flour tortillas, instead of corn because that is what I had, but they turned out awesome too.
