Todd's Famous Blueberry Pancakes

Reviewed: May 27, 2012

Delicious and easy. Never going to buy pancake mix again. I used frozen blueberries because I had no fresh and it was still good. Also, I've made it and let it sit and also made it with no time to let it sit, and there seemed to be no difference either way. They came out great both times. I've also made then with whole wheat flour and they were good.

The Best Rolled Sugar Cookies

Reviewed: May 27, 2012

Simple and good. This is my go-to sugar cookie recipe for making cookies with my son. I bought a big box of cookie cut-outs and add food coloring and other decorations for my son and I to use when it's cookie-baking time.

Baked Kale Chips

Reviewed: May 27, 2012

So good and so healthy! I told my picky three year old that they were "green chips" and he liked them! This is a side dish that everyone should be making.

Mama's Potato Salad

Reviewed: May 27, 2012

Simple and delicious! I've made it several times for family BBQ's and always get high praise. The only thing I do differently is omit the horseradish because it's not something I ever have on hand.

Whole Wheat Muffins

Reviewed: Sep. 24, 2011

These are god but I'm giving four stars for this for two reasons. First, because I added cinnamon and nutmeg, which made a BIG difference in the flavor, and also because they always seem to come out dry. I've made them several times, and I put extra milk and an extra egg but they are still a bit dry. I really like this as a base recipe for whole wheat muffins, because you can make your own additions or changes every time you make them. Also I used only ww flour.

Blueberry Muffins I

Reviewed: Jun. 3, 2011

These were delicious. However I think it needs a cup of sugar and a cup of blueberries to be just right.

Red Cabbage Salad II

Reviewed: Dec. 14, 2010

Simple and really tasty. I found myself addicted to it the first day and couldn't stop eating it, but I admit that the recipe yields so much that I was sick of it the next day. Next time I'll cut it in half :)

Lentil Soup

Reviewed: Dec. 14, 2010

This is the best lentil soup I've ever had! I used half stock/half water, a 28oz can of crushed tomatoes, and doubled the garlic and herbs. Adding spinach at the end really sends the soup over the top (I only had frozen but it was fine). I used balsamic vinegar and cut it down to one tablespoon so as not to be overpowering. It was perfect! I tasted just a hint of it in the soup and it was sooo good. I served the soup with some biscuits. I will definitely be making this again!!

Grilled Chicken Burgers

Reviewed: Sep. 10, 2010

These were SO delicious!! I didn't have Old Bay seasoning so I just left it out and added some fresh basil. I also used only one lb of chicken but left all other measurements the same, which made eight small-medium sized patties. I really like the addition of the veggies and was thrilled when my two year old asked for more! I will be making these again, maybe next time I'll try turkey meat to see how it comes out.

Corn and Black Bean Salad

Reviewed: Aug. 25, 2010

This is delicious! Every time I make it I get rave reviews. The dressing is absolutely perfect, and to the salad I add small chunks of avocado and carrots to add creaminess and crunch. I highly recommend, especially on a hot summer day!

Homemade Black Bean Veggie Burgers

Reviewed: Feb. 9, 2010

This was just ok. While I do like cumin, a tablespoon was way too much. It was very overpowering. I didn't have trouble keeping them together, but I added a 1/4 cup more breadcrumbs and an additional egg yolk to make sure I didn't have that problem. I also felt the patties were too thick. If I ever make this again, I will make twice as many patties so that they are much smaller.

Key West Chicken

Reviewed: Dec. 29, 2009

This came out good, but I definitely didn't marinate it long enough (a few hours). The flavor wasn't really strong enough and I used the juice of a whole lime. If you can't marinate overnight, it's not really worth making. I also suggest squeezing fresh lime over the chicken right before eating.

Peas with Mushrooms

Reviewed: Dec. 29, 2009

Didn't really care for the thyme in this recipe. Next time I'll leave it out and use a few tablespoons of oil instead of butter.

Simple But Awesome Lemon Pepper Pork Chops

Reviewed: Sep. 9, 2009

I would definitely not agree with the reviewers who claimed their chops were bland, because they were not at all. I would suggest being very generous with the lemon pepper and adding some minced garlic and onion slices on top of each chop. That really made a difference in my chops. I also cut the oil/butter in half, and would probably use even less next time to cut the crazy amount of fat. I am giving four stars instead of five because while my chops were tasty and juicy, they weren't as tender as I'd expected. Not sure what I could do next time to make them more tender? Overall, I will make them again.

Slow Cooker Ham

Reviewed: Aug. 27, 2009

I was looking for an easy recipe for ham in the slow cooker, and this was it! It came out pretty good, though 2 cups of sugar seemed like a lot so I used half and ended up wishing I used it all because it needed it. I also think eight hours was a bit long, next time I think I will take it out after seven. Overall it was juicy and good.

Honey Chicken Stir-Fry

Reviewed: Jun. 2, 2009

This was totally delicious! However, I wanted to make sure there was plenty of sauce for the rice so I tripled the soy sauce and honey and put in equal amounts of each. I also used much more garlic and added chopped onions. With fresh veggies and red pepper flakes (very spicy, which we like!) it came great. Will surely make again.

Pineapple Cranberry Chicken

Reviewed: May 3, 2009

I really liked this chicken dish. I added chicken broth because I served it over rice and wanted it to be nice and juicy. I also didn't layer; I mixed the pineapple and cranberry together. Since it tasted even better the next day, I think next time I will let the chicken marinate in the mixture overnight. I also think I will add a little bit of brown sugar to compliment the cinnamon.

Chocolate Chip Cookies Lite

Reviewed: May 3, 2009

For taste, I would give this recipe five stars. However, it says to place cookies on an ungreased baking sheet. I unfortunately just learned the hard way that low fat cookies must always come off of a well-greased pan. I wish this had been stated before, as I now have two dozen moist and delicious but paper coated chocolate chip cookies.
