I wasn't sure what this would end up tasting like, but I am sure glad I gave it a try! I made it just like the recipe says to, using half chicken broth and half water. I would not mind adding more onion and garlic next time. Overall, this rice tastes delicious and is very versatile! I, like a few other reviewers, made this to go along with the baked orange roughy recipe from this site. The two must be made for each other! :)

Penne con Sauccia

Reviewed: Apr. 12, 2009

I made this for the first time about 4 months ago and still make it often. My family now prefers sausage with our pasta dishes over hamburger. I have found that regular rolls of sausage work well too--instead of links. I've made this with sage pork sausage and hot pork sausage, too. I always add a green pepper, chopped, a fresh onion, about half of the recommended basil, and just enough crushed red pepper for my family's liking. I love to use a jar of Ragu Sweet Basil and Sun-dried Tomato spaghetti sauce with this--compliments the other flavors wonderfully! I could go for a serving of this right now! :)

No Bake Peanut Butter Pie

Reviewed: Apr. 12, 2009

This became one of my favorite pies instantly! I've made it quite a few times now and have found a couple ingredients that really make it even more decadent. I use 8 oz. regular Cool Whip and 8 oz. Chocolate Cool Whip. I chop up about 10 mini Reeses peanut butter cups and mix them into the filling. I also chop up about 10 more mini Reeses pb cups and sprinkle them over the top of both pies. For the finishing touch, I create a lattice design on top of the pies with chocolate syrup, freeze or refrigerate until firm, then enjoy! The pies have just a hint of chocolate from the chocolate Cool Whip but peanut butter remains the strongest flavor--Delicious!!

Orange Gelatin Salad

Reviewed: Mar. 24, 2009

My grandmother made this salad for me, by request, when I was a child. I now make it for my own children who absolutely love it. As mentioned, this does go over very well at family gatherings, especially with children who are picky eaters. So quick and easy; perfect for those evenings when the family asks, "What's for dessert??". :)
