Watermelon Cookie

Reviewed: Oct. 10, 2009
My mom used to make these when I was growing up! I LOVE how cute they are and am having so much fun baking them for my own son right now! I did substitute a 1/2 cup of whole wheat flour and a 1/3 cup splenda. Not that it will make much difference but any little bit helps!

Won Ton Wrapper Appetizers

Reviewed: Dec. 21, 2009
I used this recipe for the idea of the won ton cups only. I filled them with a tex-mex chicken mixture. But what a great idea! They baked perfectly!

Cheese Soup with Broccoli

Reviewed: Dec. 27, 2009
This soup is the best! I substituted onion powder because I really do not like onions. I omitted the salt, pepper and celery. This will be a regular in our home from now on!

Pot Stickers Traditional

Reviewed: Jan. 1, 2010
I have to admit, I thought the filling was going to be bland but it really wasn't at all! I used chicken and powdered onion and ginger in the filling. Used wonton wrappers adn water around the egdes to seal. Crimped them with a fork just to be safe but had no problems with any opening. I used others suggestions and lightly browned them before adding water to the pan and steaming. Delicious! And the dipping sauce is really good. I didn't have chili oil so I used 1/2t srirachi chili sauce instead and it worked great!

Hummus III

Reviewed: Jan. 3, 2010
this has a really good hummus taste that I am familiar with. Instead of paprika and parsely, I topped mine with fried chickpeas and red pepper flakes. I also left out the salt - didn't miss it at all!

Peanut Butter Bars I

Reviewed: Jan. 16, 2010
These were really good and quick! Next time I think I'll add a bit more peanut butter to the base and a bit less peanut butter to the chocolate, but overall great recipe!

Tenderloin with Spicy Gorgonzola-Pine Nut-Herb Butter

Reviewed: Jan. 26, 2010
This was delicious! I had to use Smart Balance "spread" because I was out of unsalted butter. I left out the parsely/garlic b/c I didn't have any and did not add salt/pepper. I thought it was a little "herby" at first but the more I ate, the move I LOVED it! Will definitely be making again!

Sundried Tomato Tapenade

Reviewed: Jan. 31, 2010
Did things a little differently. Mixed all the ingredients together minus the feta. Before serviing on crositini, I spread each slice with goat cheese, then topped with the tomato mixture. I got lazy and didn't chop the tomatoes finely enough - will make sure to do that next time - delicious!

Chewy Chocolate Cookies I

Reviewed: Jan. 31, 2010
Cut this recipe in half. Made using Splenda in place of the sugar and half whole wheat flour. Did not add extra flour. The cookies in the first batch hardly spread out at all, so I flattened them before baking with the second batch. Tasted awesome!

Coconut Shrimp I

Reviewed: Feb. 5, 2010
Amazingly delicous! I used coconut milk instead of beer as well. I don't know if anyone else has said this but if you do that, reduce the amount of flour you add to it, My batter was a bit too thick. I served mine with an apricot sauce - loved it!

PHILADELPHIA® New York Cheesecake II

Reviewed: Feb. 6, 2010
This recipe is the closest I've come to making a cheesecake that reminds me of the ones I had growing up on the East coast. Mine came out rich and dense just like I like it! It did brown on top before the recommended bake time so watch it closely as your near the end. I had NO cracking and didn't do anything to prevent it! I used plain grahams to make my crust :)

Manicotti Shells

Reviewed: Feb. 6, 2010
I agree that these are a little crepe-like, but once baked they work perfectly! And they were really simple!

Sweet Dinner Rolls

Reviewed: Dec. 13, 2009
I tried to make these following the recipes given by another reviewer on how to do it without a bread machine. I missed a step and had to go back and add the egg in ater everything else was done. I think this messed mine up a little but the flavor is excellent and as soon as I get a bread machine I will be making these again!

Three Cheese Manicotti

Reviewed: Feb. 6, 2010
I made th recipe as is except for the fact I was a little short on mozarella and substituted almost half colcy-jack (couldn't even tell once baked!). I think next time I'd reduce the spices a little. The only thing I really do not like about this recipe is that even cut in half, it's a lot and there is only 2 of us. I made my own "manicotti shells" from a recipe on this site - all I had to do was drop some of the mixture onto each one and roll it up - super easy and super fast!!

Cheddar Baked Chicken

Reviewed: Feb. 27, 2010
Made using whole wheat flour, only 1/2 t pepper and no butter. Sprayed the bottom of an enamel baking dish with cooking spray. Cooked 40 minutes for 2 medium sized chicken breasts. My breading didn't stick to well after cutting into it but that's ok - I just scooped it up with each bite of chicken :) Very good for a quick weekday meal!

Roasted-Vegetable Stock

Reviewed: Feb. 28, 2010
I made using the exact vegetables listed this time. Easy to make - great results. I think I simmered mine a bit long - only ended up with 4 Cups. This was my first time making vegetable stock and I will continue to make my own now I know how easy it is! I did add almost a full tsp of salt and just a dash of pepper.

Basic Vegetable Stock

Reviewed: Feb. 28, 2010
Made mine totally organic with the exception of the bay leaves. I didn't have any regular onions but did use a huge bunch of green onions. I also used 1 t dried thyme, 1 t dried parsely and sea salt. Worked out great!
