Cake tastes great, if it would turn out. Twice now I have tried it, and it turns to a pile of solid mush. Way too many liquids (sour cream, eggs, oil). I just took those elements out and made it--turned out great.

No onions or molasses or sugar or cilantro. And I add bacon!

Zucchini Patties

Reviewed: Sep. 16, 2009

I grated the first zucchini and realized that it was a waste of time because they were so wet. So I chopped the zucchini very thinly instead. I removed onions because I hate them, but I think some garlic would have added nicely to this recipe. I'm going to attempt to bake them next time. I used olive oil, but they still had that fried taste instead of accentuating the vegetable. I will use this as an appetizer the next time I have guests over!

Broccoli Cheese Soup

Reviewed: Dec. 4, 2008

It came out alright. I think the Chicken Broth made it too watery, as I traditionally like thicker broccoli cheese. Nothing to write home about, but still a great base soup if you're bored and looking for something to warm you up in the winter. (PS - I used way too much Garlic Powder, be careful it can ruin the recipe.)

Baked Potato Soup V

Reviewed: Nov. 9, 2008

Wow! This was incredible! At first when I had the butter, flour and milk I didn't think that it was going to be thick enough. But then I added the sour cream and cheese and it came out amazing! A+

Pasta in Vodka Sauce

Reviewed: Sep. 14, 2008

WOW! This recipe is AMAZING! First off, here's what I changed: NO onions or celery, and I didn't have parsley. I used 1 tsp of crushed red peppers instead of cayenne peppers, and I also added 1 pound of sweet italian sausage. This recipe is the bomb!

Whoooooooo doggy! Just in time for fall, this recipe is the bomb! Super easy to make and bake, I added Cream Cheese Frosting to these to really top them off.

Creamy Cream Cheese Frosting

Reviewed: Sep. 7, 2008

Super easy to make, and very tasty!! I recommend heating up the cream cheese before trying to mix it with the whipped cream. I might experiment with adding some other elements in the future.

Artichoke Dip I

Reviewed: Jul. 21, 2008

Wow! What an amazing Artichoke Dip! I followed some of the other dissenters and used Cream of Celery Soup instead of Mayonaise. The thought of that much mayo made me want to vomit. I served this dish to my family with some garlic-buttered Ciabatta bread, and they ate it all! Oh yes, I almost forgot, I boiled fresh spinach from the farmers market and made it into an "Artichoke & Spinach Dip." I also followed some of the other reviewers and their advice to chop up the artichokes as small as possible. Maybe next time I will use fresh artichokes? :) Happy cooking!

Chicken Wild Rice Soup I

Reviewed: Jul. 21, 2008

Oh my goodness! This recipe is better than anything I have tasted, even from restaurants! First of all, I will list my dissentions: I used a rotisserie chicken from my local grocery store. This provided a better taste and variety of meat. It was way better than just using breasts. I also left out the sherry because (a) I don't know what it is and (b) I obviously didn't have any. My wife and I *LOVED* this recipe and will definitely be using again and again.

Butter Bean Burgers

Reviewed: Jul. 21, 2008

I was pleasantly surprised to this recipe! I think it was because I used Olive Oil instead of Vegetable Oil (I'm kind of anti Corn.) I also used Pinto Beans instead of Butter Beans. This is a great way to sneak in lots of vegetables into your meal. The greatest part about this recipe is that it made 4 LARGE patties, all at a cost of maybe $2.
