Quick and Easy Chicken Noodle Soup

Reviewed: Feb. 9, 2009

I made just a few slight changes on this recipe, it had a good taste and was a definite kid pleaser. I sauteed the carrots with the celery and onion. Then, I put the veggies in the broth and let them boil alone while I cooked the chicken. I hate crispy veggies, so I wanted them to cook for longer. I seasoned the chicken with chicken seasoning, garlic powder, salt, and pepper. This made the chicken quite flavorful in the finished product. I also added 2 boullion cubes to the broth. Good for a cold, relaxed day.

Slow Cooker Dump and Go Cheesy Chicken

Reviewed: Jan. 27, 2009

I hated this recipe. It was too bland for my tastes. I listened to others advice and added a can of cream of chicken soup in addition to the cheddar soups. If I didn't add it, I still don't think I would have liked it. The only reason I am giving it two stars is because my boyfriend did like the recipe. He thought it tasted like chicken and dumplings.

Slow Cooker Chicken Taco Soup

Reviewed: Jan. 20, 2009

This recipe is all of my favorite things about recipes: 1.EASY 2. DELICIOUS 3. TASTES GREAT THE NEXT DAY!!! My boyfriend is really picky and he absolutely loved this soup. I added one can of broth instead of beer and it tasted great. It fills your house with a great spicy smell, too. However, the soup is quite mild. My boyfriend and I were both expecting a spicier soup. Next time, I'll add an extra packet of seasoning. It's great!!

Broccoli Casserole I

Reviewed: Dec. 30, 2008

I have made this several times over the holiday now and I get so many rave reviews. Everyone loves it. I like other users make cheese sauce using Velveeta and milk! Awesome! Also, I leave out the onion and just use powdered.

Mexican Layered Dip

Reviewed: Dec. 30, 2008

I mixed the taco seasoning in with the sour cream. Turned out great. Make sure you let it sit in your fridge for awhile (an hour approx.) otherwise some of the spices in the taco seasoning are crunchy and yucky.

Slow Cooker Beef Vegetable Soup

Reviewed: Dec. 30, 2008

Cut the tomatoes by at least half and you've got an awesome dinner. I only put in half of the can of crushed tomatoes, added a can of peas, and 2 cups of beef broth and it came out excellent but still strong on the tomato side.

Spinach Cheese Manicotti

Reviewed: Nov. 10, 2008

This recipe is great the way it is! A real pleaser. I prefer meatless dishes and my fiancee is a real meat and potatoes kind of guy. However, this meal had him saying he would be a vegetarian if everything tasted that good! It's great on a cold day. The only thing I changed was boiling the noodles for about 7 minutes just to where they were starting to become tender so I did not have to water down the sauce. For easy filling of the manicotti noodles, try cutting the corner off of a sandwich bag and piping it into the noodle. Worked great and I didn't have one noodle break!
