Four Fruit Pie

Reviewed: Jul. 2, 2011

Very nice recipe and quite easy. I didn't have raspberries, so I had to substitute dried cranberries. It worked well, too.

Nacho Cheese Sauce

Reviewed: Apr. 23, 2011

my family loved this! I used a mixture of American and pepper jack to give it a kick! My step son now compares this to every restaurant and it always wins.

Bourbon Chicken

Reviewed: Feb. 13, 2011

This recipe is great! I've made it several times and always get compliments. I've found the best cut of meat is boneless chicken thighs and it tastes great served with rice.

Belles Hamburger Buns

Reviewed: Jan. 12, 2011

I followed these directions exactly, but the outside of the rolls was hard rather than soft. I will try a different recipe next time.

This was what I was looking for: an easy casserole recipe for a winter night. I followed the recipe for the most part, but dusted the pork chops with flour before pan frying to give them a light breading. I also used cream of chicken instead of cream of mushroom soup because of picky eaters. I served it with green beans for a complete meal. I did find the rice was a little browner at the edges of the casserole and I had only cooked it for a little over an hour. Next time I may add a little extra water to keep this from happening so soon. Because I needed to remove the casserole from the oven early, the pork was not as tender as it could have been.

Rum Balls II

Reviewed: Dec. 11, 2010

These were good, but I agree with the other reviews that I probably needed 2 bottles of chocolate jimmies and the mix was a little dry, so I added a tablespoon more rum for additional flavor and moisture. Good and not difficult though!

Blue Cheese Herb Spread

Reviewed: Dec. 11, 2010

Excellent spread! I looked at the reviews and added 1/4 cup dried cranberries for a nice tart, salty, and sweet blend. The parsely gives it a fresh taste. I can't wait to serve this tomorrow.

Spiced Mixed Nuts

Reviewed: Dec. 11, 2010

Great taste and VERY easy! I read the comments by other reviewers and added an extra 1/2 of nuts. I also substituted cayenne pepper for the nutmeg to give it a kick. I will definitely make this again.

Peanut Pie

Reviewed: Sep. 13, 2010

This was good, but the nuts did not rise to the top as in the picture and so they became soft if the pie filling. It had a nice flavor. I would try again, but sprinkle the nuts on top instead of folding them in the filling.

Oatmeal Chocolate Coconut Chewy

Reviewed: Jul. 23, 2010

Very good! My husband loved them. I used dark chocolate chips and the flavor was a little overpowering, so I may scale back to semi-sweet or use less next time. I would definitely make the recipe again though. Be prepared for a huge batch. This made about 7 1/2 dozen for me.

Apple-Raisin French Toast Casserole

Reviewed: Dec. 25, 2009

This was excellent. I made it Christmas eve night to bake for Christmas morning. It was an easy breakfast and I substituted dried cranberries for raisins to make it more seasonal. It tastes much like bread pudding and does not need any added syrup. When I served it, I spooned servings so that the apples and cranberries topped the "toast" layer. It looked lovely on the plates.

Whipped Sweet Potato Casserole

Reviewed: Nov. 27, 2009

I made this for Thanksgiving. Of the mounds of food I prepared, this was the lone dish with NO leftovers. It was completely gone! I thought it was quite good and added a little vanilla, as was suggested by some of the reviews. To cook the potatoes, I baked them for about an hour and then scooped out the skins and this worked well. My one complaint is that the orange juice came across a little strong for my taste. I used fresh squeezed and it was a bit too obvious a flavor in the mix.

Southern Green Beans

Reviewed: Nov. 27, 2009

A very good recipe! I made this as a side for Thanksgiving. It smelled wonderful when cooking and went very well with the meal. I needed to cook the green beans much longer than 10 minutes to make them tender, but as the potatoes cooked, some began to break down and thicken the sauce, which was a nice touch. I would prepare again.

Cranberry Sauce

Reviewed: Nov. 27, 2009

Wonderful! After reading the reviews, I cooked the cranberries a little longer to give the sauce some extra thickness. It worked very well and was super easy. Great to make ahead!

Chocolate Pecan Pie IV

Reviewed: Nov. 27, 2009

Excellent flavor! This turned out very well. I was a little concerned when I cut into the pie and the chocolate had seperated from the pie filling a bit, but the flavor was amazing and I would definitely make again.
