Grandmother's Buttermilk Cornbread

Reviewed: Jun. 17, 2011

I followed the recipe to the T. This is most definitely a 5 star. I paired this up with homemade beef stew and there was nothing left of the cornbread or the stew. I will be using this recipe from now on instead of buying jiffy.

Belles Hamburger Buns

Reviewed: May 31, 2011

These were good. I followed the instructions excatly as they were written. The only reason I gave it 4 stars and not 5 because I was a little disappointed with the crunch crust. I like soft rolls instead of crunchy crust.

Amazing Pork Tenderloin in the Slow Cooker

Reviewed: Jan. 22, 2011

This was a hit in my house. I follow the instructions but then addmy own twist to it. I did not have red wine so instead I added red cooking wine. Next time I use less with the cooking wine. I added more mushrooms and green onions. I threw in some spices as well. If I do 4 hours on my Crockpot then the settings is on high so I cooked it for 6 hours instead. Pork came out nice and tender. With the gravy, meat and mashed potatoes it all worked out great! I will most definitely make this again.

Great reciepe! I took the advice about the salt and the bread came out better. I also had problems with the bread falling apart and couldn't figure out why and now I know. One package of the yeast and 1.5 teaspoon of salt.

World's Best Lasagna

Reviewed: Jun. 21, 2010

This was great. The only reason I'm giving it 4 stars is because I ended up changing the reciepe. I didn't use the sugar since I had sweet sausage. Over all, everyone loved it.

Grilled Flat Iron Steak with Blue Cheese-Chive Butter

Reviewed: Jun. 21, 2010

This was a big hit on Father's Day. Everyone loved the steaks. I ended up making 2 flat iron steaks and mini steaks because I was cooking for 12 people. By the end of the meal there was only 3 little steaks left and nothing else. WOW. The blue cheese butter was a hit as well. I also make a cup of butter without the blue cheese for those who didn't like blue cheese. I will most definitely make this again.

Pork Chops a la Slow Cooker

Reviewed: Jun. 18, 2010

This was delicious! My whole family loves this recipe. I did change a little bit after reading the reviews. I added chicken broth and cream of mushrooms instead of chicken with rice soup. I also added onion, mushrooms, and all kinds of spices. I cooked it for 6 hours. Didn't need a knife to cut it. Excellent!

Campbell's Kitchen Souper Sloppy Joes

Reviewed: Jun. 16, 2010

Its 5 stars after I made some changes. This was a good foundation for sloppy joe but did not cut it for my family. These are the following modifications that I made: 1) added 1/2 orange pepper 2) 1/2 green pepper 3) 1/2 can of dice tomatoes (14 oz.) 4) minced garlic 5) 1/8 red cayenne pepper 6) sea salt and 7) worcestershire sauce. The cayenne pepper gives it a little kick. I cooked all the veggies in the soup until veggies where soft. The rest of the seasonings I tasted and then added.

This was great! Two things I different were: 1. cooked it for 8 hours in the crock pot and 2. use pork ribs with bone since my store didn't have any boneless.

This was a great pasta salad. I had doubled the recipe for our BBQ. It was a great addition to our feast that we had. We had only a little bit left over for the next day. I did add a little bit more veggies---different color peppers.

Beefaroni

Reviewed: May 17, 2009

I loved this recipe. It was easy to follow. I made this because of the little bit of items being used. Of course to any recipe everyone will add more than what is on the recipe. All I added was spices. It came out great. I have a picky 2 1/2 year old and he ate it all.

It was very good. The only I would like is a little more sauce. I did add a little bit of garlic powder to since my family loves garlic. This was a hit in my family, even my 2 1/2 year old ate 2 bowls of it.
