4 stars because I made changes to the amts of the ingredients. 10 stars with my modifications. I used sharp cheddar cheese and up all the spices to 1 tsp. I also use 1/2 bread crumds & 1/4 cup Panko. Scooped out the garlic after sauteeing and spread them on top of the meats before bakng. This came out really good. Best chicken I ever made. No leftovers YEAH!!!Thank you BAYLOR66.

Pan-Fried Asparagus

Reviewed: Mar. 23, 2012

I used EVOO & butter in equal amts. And it came out better. Too much butter like the other reviwer said. And I added the garlic towards the end of cooking. Added a large baked tomato in the center for color & decoration

Fisherman's Quick Fish

Reviewed: Feb. 25, 2012

I was hesitant to make this recipe because of the potato chips but went & tried it anyway. Am so glad that I did! It was really good, I did not even change a thing. Would definitely make this again. As a matter of fact, I went & bought more cod fish when I went shopping this week. It's a keeper!

Simple Whole Roasted Chicken

Reviewed: Feb. 25, 2012

I made this chicken and folowed the direction exactly since it has very good reviews. Unfortunately, it's bland. The meat was juicy but the taste was just ok. Also, my chicken cooked longer than what it stated (even using a convection oven) It needs something else. I will not be making this again.

Steak and Bacon Tournedos

Reviewed: Jan. 31, 2012

I am not rating this recipe bc I have not made it yet. Upon reading the reviews, most of you are adding "pesto". Can someone tell me what kind of pesto are being used since there are different kinds of pesto out there? TY.

Broiled Tilapia Parmesan

Reviewed: Oct. 5, 2011

Very good & easy to make. The only thing I would like to say is it takes more than 2 minutes to broil the fish, maybe 4-5, i just kept an eye on the fish so it won't over cook. This dish is super. I added about 1/8 tsp of salt & 2 T of Japanese Panko for an extra crunch, other than that, I followed everyhting exactly as is. It's hard not to deviate from the recipe but this one does not need it. It's a keeper

Garlic Mashed Potatoes Secret Recipe

Reviewed: Sep. 17, 2011

This is a super mashed! Simple & easy to make. I roasted my garlic (whole head sprinkled with EVOO) and the flavor was amazing. Scaled it to 6 servings. WOW!!!I also added mine with Lobster meat (sauteed in eVOO/butter) and mushroom gravy sauce, it's even better than the one from the Continental Resort. Served with crab cakes! It's a keeper! My picky daughter even loved it!

Spence's Pesto Chicken Pasta

Reviewed: Jul. 1, 2011

Made this recipe for dinner last night, I had to tweak this recipe a lttle because it is too dry. I ended up adding1.5 cups of water since my family always prefer gravy on the pasta. Here's what I did: Added 1.5 cups water (chicken broth), more S/P, more spinach, 1 .5 cups of pesto and 2 cubes of chicken bouillion. I sude angel hair pasta on this one. I skip the artichokes because i ddn't have it on hand. I also breaded the Thin sliced, cut up chicken breast only because we don't like our meat thick. This is better than chicken scampi.

Pan-Poached Alaskan Salmon Piccata

Reviewed: Jan. 11, 2011

OMG!!!I got rave reviews for making this salmon served on my new year's eve party of 100 guest. The only changed I made was using less lemon juices. This recipe is served at high-end restaurants and is excellent. Served wth spinach rice & it was perfect. You can actually use red Snapper also instead of salmon and it's also very good. I took the advise of other reviewers and used 3/4 cup white wine while reducting and oh my....No leftovers!!!
