Fluffy French Toast

Reviewed: Dec. 19, 2010

To be completely honest I didn't think this tasted much different. I couldn't get the batter completely clumpless from the flour either. I also took the suggestion of another reviewer and cooked it in Crisco. It worked ok, but the crisco heated faster and so I had to be really careful about it burning.

Banana Fritters

Reviewed: Aug. 27, 2010

I didn't add enough eggs or use enough oil, which is probably why mine turned out like really soft pancakes. Still, they were really good. We served them with honey and maple syrup.

Ham with Pineapple

Reviewed: Apr. 4, 2010

This came out yummy, yummy. I didn't have the soda, but I thought it was great this way - and also one of the closest recipes to the way my mom used to make ham for Holidays!

Nestled Egg Muffins

Reviewed: Apr. 4, 2010

What a neat idea! I've had this recipe in my box since last Easter and finally got around to it today. This was very good! And the batter would have been great for just plain muffins w/out the eggs too (will be making again that way for just any time of the year). I made some changes: We live in very high altitude, so I know from experience if we put the raw egg in the oven, it won't cook by the time the muffin is done, so I pre-cooked the eggs for about half the time it takes to hard boil them (about 8 min at our elevation (16-20 mins total)). I also didn't have any raisins, so I took cranberries and boiled them with a little sugar and water and added a scoop to the batter - used the rest as a jam topping. Next time I will also use small eggs and lightly oil the shells so they don't stick to the batter. Thanks so much for posting this - it made an awesome Easter breakfast.

Grilled Hawaiians

Reviewed: Apr. 4, 2010

What a great twist on grilled cheese sandwiches. It was really yummy. We only had pineapple rings so we grilled those up and put one and a half on each sandwich. We paired this with 'Hawaiian Chicken' submitted by NIBLETS and it was perfect! We dipped the sandwiches in the sweet sauce and it was sooooo good.

Hawaii Chicken

Reviewed: Apr. 4, 2010

This was wonderful! I think it made the perfect sweet and sour sauce, I couldn't have asked for better. I did somethings differently. I used a red bell (made the dish look so pretty and sweeter), just cooked the chicken in the skillet with some parsley and spices without the batter coating to cut down on calories. I also think a hint of red pepper flakes would make this dish! So great, thanks for putting it up. Oh p.s. side this with Grilled Hawaiians (like grilled cheese sandwiches with a twist) if you don't want rice and to finish off the left over pineapple.

White Sauce

Reviewed: Apr. 3, 2010

I can't count the number of times I've used this recipe. I've added things and changed it up for almost any recipe. When I could only have lactaid milk, I used this recipe as a base for anything that called for cream of whatever soups as well as a sub for any type of white sauce. Thanks for posting this!

Cha Cha's White Chicken Chili

Reviewed: Oct. 19, 2009

Loved all the seasonings! Yum. (My bad, I used dry beans which I had soaked - however I should have cooked them first :P before putting it together - this took a lot longer and a lot of water because of that)

Spring Lime Tea Cookies

Reviewed: Jun. 14, 2009

These were so very perfect for a summer day. They're very light and buttery and I loved the fluffy texture. Plus they were fairly simple. My only change: Def. use powdered sugar for the icing, that way it sets up and looks very pretty. Company loved these. Thanks!

Easy Rice Breakfast Treat

Reviewed: Jun. 4, 2009

Thank you so much for posting this recipe!!! My husband's mother used to make this for him when he was little with left over rice from the night before and it was wonderful to do it again. I really like the idea of nutmeg, and was sad we didn't have any, but it still was really good. Little changes I made were: did half white sugar and half brown sugar. And while I don't think it needs it, my husband's family adds about a T of butter, while I like adding a handful of raisins. YUMMY!! :) Thanks again!

Penne, Tomato, and Mozzarella Salad

Reviewed: Jun. 4, 2009

I definetly listened to previous comments and I'm really glad I did cause it turned out great! I split the recipe in half. Added 4 times as many olives as the original, used 2 garlic cloves, cut some small bell pepper wedges and sauteed them with the onion and garlic. I also added about a 1/2 cup of kraft italian dressing and 2 T of vinegar. Plus extra pepper and salt, and garlic salt. I didn't heat up the ingredients though, but kept it as a cold salad and let it sit in the refridgerator for 2 hours before serving. Magnificent! (I could see how this could be a warm salad, but only if the cheese was heated just to soft - not melted.) A great summer pasta salad.

Southern Potato Salad

Reviewed: Jun. 1, 2009

This was the first time i've ever made potatoe salad. I thought it was really good. The true test was with my husband, cause his mom makes an egg-cellent (pardon the pun) potatoe salad. He really liked it though. My one suggestion for an add in is black or green olives depending on your taste.

Hot Fudge Pudding Cake II

Reviewed: May 6, 2009

The only reason this is getting a four is because the pudding part wasn't exactly what I was expecting (perhaps not as "lava cake" fudgey in texture as I was hoping). It was still extremely delicious and I'm having a very difficult time staying away from it. I still will be making this again! Yummy!!!

Braided Easter Egg Bread

Reviewed: May 5, 2009

Beautiful, tasty bread! Tasted just like the rolls you can get in nice restaurants. Had to use about 1 cup more of flour to get it to the right consistency.

Best Lemonade Ever

Reviewed: May 5, 2009

I wasn't sure I was going to be giving this a 5 star, but wow! Really fast and easy and everyone loved it. Said it was just as good as the restaurants and didn't leave a stingy feeling in your throat. (I used less lemon juice and sugar)

Sour Cream Lemon Pie

Reviewed: May 4, 2009

Wow-ie, Zow-ie!!!! This is much better than any Marie Calander creme pie (that's the only kind I've ever had.) I agree with someone else's comment, don't change things!! I only didn't have fresh lemons so instead of rind I had to substitute a bit more juice. Also, I'm high altitude so I added about 1 T of corn starch extra. Really Yummy! Can't wait for guests to arrive.

White Bread For The Bread Machine

Reviewed: Apr. 30, 2009

Holy Cow!!! This came out perfect!!! I didn't think bread machine could actually taste this good. It's easy to cut, it's stayed fresh (I put it in a bag and then in the fridge), it's stayed softer than any other recipe's I've tried to date, and tastes just like the bread you can get in the store. I WILL be using this recipe from now on! Yippee!!!

Ron's Bread Machine White

Reviewed: Apr. 28, 2009

This came out perfect! Great shape, great taste and good texture. I just have one question that applies to all machine breads: How do you keep them from drying out fast???? I still haven't figured that out. This was wonderful though, I tried another recipe the same day and this one was much better!
