Pancakes II

Reviewed: May 27, 2012

This is the type of pancake I prefer: somewhat dense and thin. I was looking for a lower-in-fat pancake and thought this recipe might do the trick, thanks to no oil or melted butter. I failed to read the rest of the recipe and instead sifted the dry ingredients in one bowl and stirred up the wet ingredients in another. I dumped the wet into the dry, adding a teaspoon of vanilla like I always do, and whisked until smooth. I let the batter sit for a few minutes while I prep my pan, then cook in a little non-stick spray. My husband claims they're as good as the high-fat, fluffy pancakes, and I agree. This recipe will be a keeper.

Bow Ties with Sausage, Tomatoes and Cream

Reviewed: Mar. 10, 2012

Holy COW was this good! I got home from work tonight and my husband said he'd have dinner ready. He plugged in pasta and sausage into the search engine and this came up, so he shopped for the ingredients and made it for me. He is not an experienced cook, but this recipe was easy for him. This dish was AMAZING!! I told him I felt like we'd gone to a very nice Italian restaurant and was served this meal. Thank you, Linda, for my new dinner idea next weekend when his parents come to visit. You rock!

Kristie's Chicken Spectacular

Reviewed: Feb. 8, 2012

I goofed and breaded both sides of my chicken breasts. Decided to bake this in an iron skillet coated with a thin film of canola oil. The coating was crispy and delicious! As I really wanted that crispiness, I left off the cheese. My husband and I both enjoyed this and we'll definitely have it again!

Famous Butter Chicken

Reviewed: Dec. 18, 2011

Very tasty dish! The garlic adds a very nice touch. Make sure not to overcook the chicken so as to keep the juiciness of the meat, and don't put the butter on top of the chicken, just around the sides. The crackers are delicious and I was surprised at how crispy this came out. A definite keeper!

Apple-Raisin French Toast Casserole

Reviewed: Nov. 6, 2011

I made this for company this weekend. I decided to make 1.5 times the recipe to ensure I had enough. I made one batch in a 9x13 pan and another in an 8x8 pan. I did everything as directed (serves 18 instead of 12) except I used 4 apples and only one stick of butter. I also used 1-1/2 loaves of raisin cinnamon bread. I put this together around 9 pm and popped it in the oven the next morning at 8 for 45 minutes covered. I uncovered the pans and baked for 15 minutes and ended up raising the temperature to 400 degrees for another 10 minutes to get a nice crispiness to the top. I thought it was sweet, but several of my guests had seconds and everyone talked about how great this tasted. The larger pan was the soggier of the two. I tasted from both pans and found I preferred the casserole from the 8x8, which was less soggy. Served this with sausage links, orange juice and coffee. I'll definitely have this again next time we have company.

Balsamic Glazed Carrots

Reviewed: Sep. 4, 2011

Really enjoyed these carrots, though next time I might add just a smidge more vinegar.

Chuck's Favorite Mac and Cheese

Reviewed: Sep. 4, 2011

I made this for company last night. I just now realized I didn't put in the parmesan cheese! No matter as this was gobbled up post haste. I wish I'd doubled the recipe! My husband isn't a fan of sour cream, so I didn't tell him he was eating it until he commented how good this was. I've got to make this again soon!

Baked Ziti I

Reviewed: Aug. 25, 2011

My husband made this for us and it was amazing! The sour cream is the secret ingredient that really gives this meal a kick. He halved the recipe and I'm glad he did. We had leftovers the next night (my idea since I loved it so much the first night) and the flavors were even better! He asked if I'd make it using "World's Best Pasta Sauce" from this site, which would make this dish simply stellar.

Yummy Honey Chicken Kabobs

Reviewed: Aug. 23, 2011

I slice chicken breasts cross-wise and marinate in this for a couple hours, then grill for 10 minutes a side, basting with the marinade in the last few minutes. Hubby and I both love it. It's a keeper!

Wedding Cake Frosting

Reviewed: Aug. 23, 2011

Holy cow, is this good! I halved the recipe and it covered a sheet cake just fine. I used skim milk and 3 cups of powdered sugar and mixed for 20 minutes on medium speed with a paddle. It came out light and fluffy and marvelous. I have to stop myself from baking a cake every weekend just to have this frosting!

Spicy Garlic Lime Chicken

Reviewed: Jul. 29, 2011

I've made this a couple of times and have always enjoyed it. Rather than pounding the chicken, I slice the breasts through the center and end up with thinner breast meat. This is a quick and easy dinner that always pleases everyone at the table.

Lemonade Pie III

Reviewed: Jul. 21, 2011

I gave this 4 stars, rather than 5, because the recipe should make it clear that this pie should be served frozen. I served it thawed, but stored in the refrigerator, and it was a soupy mess. My guests didn't finish their servings and neither did I. There were two slices left which I put back into the freezer. My husband and I had them the next night and the texture and flavor was fabulous!

Pineapple Chicken

Reviewed: Jun. 12, 2011

I made this last night and wasn't impressed at all. Maybe if I'd made all the changes suggested by others it would've been better, but as it was, the liquid was way too strong with the taste of onion soup. It wasn't appealing at all.

Veronica's Apple Pancakes

Reviewed: Jan. 8, 2011

I made these for breakfast this morning and loved them! Very moist and filling without being "hockey pucks." I doubled the cinnamon to 1/2 teaspoon and felt this gave it just enough essence of cinnamon without being overpowering. I highly recommend these for company day or any day!

Cheese Garlic Biscuits II

Reviewed: Nov. 30, 2010

I was disappointed in these. Though they certainly looked delicious, they tasted doughy and bland. I could barely taste the cheese in them. With a lot of tweaking I might come up with a good alternative, but instead I think I'll just try one of the other recipes on this site.

Broiled Tilapia Parmesan

Reviewed: Aug. 10, 2010

Outstanding!!! I also substituted breadcrumbs for half the parmesan cheese as well as sprinkled Old Bay Seasoning on the fish before broiling. This was amazing and will certainly become a favorite go-to recipe. Thanks, Phoebe, for sharing this!

Sloppy Joes II

Reviewed: Jul. 30, 2010

I made a zillion changes, but wanted to say this is a fantastic basic recipe. Get creative!! I used ground turkey, shallot and red bell pepper in place of the beef, onion and green pepper. I also left out the salt (tons of that in the ketchup), but added a splash of red wine vinegar and Worcestershire sauce. As it was cooking down, it started to dry out, so I added a tablespoon of water to keep in the moisture. This is a delicious recipe and I highly recommend it either as it stands or for getting creative!

Peach Cobbler Dump Cake I

Reviewed: Jun. 20, 2010

I'm trying to figure out why this turned out so poorly. I'm spooning out dry cake mix from this dish and what topping did get moist tastes and feels like mush. I'm going to keep looking for a recipe I'll use over and over again.

Buffy's Refried Beans

Reviewed: May 31, 2010

I scaled this down for 2 people, used butter and added garlic and chili powder. I left out the salt and used a potato masher to mash the beans once they went into the pot. I used hot water, as others suggested. These are amazingly delicious!! Next time I'll add some dried chilies and try it with chicken stock instead of water. I'll never buy that nasty canned stuff again!
