Best Lemonade Ever

Reviewed: May 26, 2012

REFRESHING! The perfect drink for a hot day! I sliced two lemons and added them to the finished recipe. It cut the sweetness a little and was perfect for us. It was so refreshing! Thank you Jo for sharing your recipe.

Lemon Ice II

Reviewed: May 20, 2012

Creamy not icey! I really wanted to like this recipe but found it "sour" as opposed to "tart". I don't know why it surprised me but it is lemon and milk. My ingredients were fresh. To make this to our liking, Hubby added Hershey's strawberry syrup to his, and I made an orange float out of mine. Very good this way so all was not lost! Thank you for sharing your recipe, jem, I wish we had liked it with no changes.

Martha's Vegetable Beef Soup

Reviewed: May 11, 2012

DELISH! I had left-over beef from last night's roast, so I chopped that in place of ground beef. I also added Italian seasonings to taste. I liked the addition of the sugar to cut the acid of the tomatoes. This recipe will be kept to use again and again. Thank you dkennedy for sharing your recipe!

Chocolate Wafer Ice Cream Sandwiches

Reviewed: May 9, 2012

WOW! WOW! WOW! I used Thin Mint Girl Scout cookies and rolled them in mint chocolate chips. I froze the cookies first so the chocolate wouldn't get all over my hands. These were small which was good because the ice cream didn't have time to melt when you ate them; and, if you were counting calories, there were less. I made both chocolate and vanilla ice cream sandwiches and they were equally as good. Thank you cookin'mama for sharing your recipe!

Flan II

Reviewed: May 9, 2012

SMOOTH & CREAMY! This was my first time making flan and it was so easy. Perfect instructions! I used 2% milk by mistake but couldn't have had better results. I will use it next time too! Thank you Bobby Kleinveld for sharing your recipe!

Real Sopapillas

Reviewed: May 6, 2012

YUM! I have never eaten a sopapilla before nor have I ever seen one. Making these was an adventure into new territory. All I can say is, when I dropped the little dough squares into the oil, I was amazed at the little pillows of puffiness. I knew I did something right. How amazing these would be cut into little hearts and covered with tinted sugar. I coated these with a mix of sugar and cinnamon and they were yummy. Thank you Leaz for sharing your recipe and allowing me to have another first adventure!

Lemon Berry Slushy

Reviewed: May 5, 2012

EXCELLENT! I did use an extra tray of ice cubes as I wanted it more slushier. We really enjoyed this treat and I will make it again whenever I have strawberries around the house. Thank you MGREE688 for sharing your recipe!

VERY GOOD! I didn't make any changes to the recipe. I filled them with cherry pie filling and topped them with whipped cream. They made for a fantastic dessert. Thank you for sharing your recipe!

Perfect Strawberry Milkshake

Reviewed: May 3, 2012

YUM! I doubled the strawberries but next time I will cut the milk in half for a thicker shake. Made with yogurt and 1% milk makes for a no-guilt treat. Thank you Froggy+Popovers= for sharing your recipe.

Garlic Chicken Sausage and Summer Vegetable Saute

Reviewed: Apr. 23, 2012

VERY GOOD! I tried to make this according to the recipe but I didn't have zucchini or polenta. I substituted them with asparagus and rice. It wasn't until I went to add the balsamic that I saw it was out-of-date; so, I used two tablespoons of Yoshida's gourmet cooking sauce. I couldn't have asked for a better taste. We thoroughly enjoyed this meal and I will make it again, probably the same way. Thank you alfresco for sharing your recipe.

Roasted Garlic Chicken Sausage Caesar Salad

Reviewed: Apr. 22, 2012

DELISH! I made this according to the recipe. The only thing I will do different next time is to add croutons. I didn't think I would like warm sausage on my lettuce so I let it cool off a little before mixing. I also sprinkled with parmesan cheese. Oops, I did have a change. Thank you al fresco All Natural for sharing your recipe!

Linguini with Roasted Vegetables and Tomato Basil Chicken Meatballs

Reviewed: Apr. 20, 2012

KNOCK YOUR SOCKS OFF GOOD! We really enjoyed this recipe and look forward to having it often. My only substitution was using minced garlic for fresh as I didn't realize I was out of fresh garlic. Hubby kept telling me throughout dinner how much he was enjoying it. A definite keeper. The meatballs are fabulous!

Instant Chocolate Covered Bunnies (On a Stick)

Reviewed: Mar. 29, 2012

YUM! What I really like about this recipe is how fresh the marshmallows will stay being coated with chocolate. Coating the bunnies with different flavors of chips will make for a nice variety. This recipe is so simple yet it's goodness really took me by surprise. So cute too! It will be an added treat when I hold the Easter egg hunt this year. Thank you Ciera for sharing!

Beef Stew VI

Reviewed: Mar. 18, 2012

FANTASTIC! I used Angus beef chuck cubes and basically followed the recipe adding worcestershire sauce in step 1. I used extra vegetables which caused me to add more bouillon and water. I kept adding until the veggies were covered with broth. After the veggies were tender, I added the cornstarch gradually until it was the consistency I desired. This stew was "knock your socks off good"! It is going in my recipe book and will see a lot of use. Thank you Paula for sharing such a FANTASTIC recipe!

Crab Imperial II

Reviewed: Mar. 10, 2012

5 STARS without a doubt! I am not a person to mess with the flavor of crabmeat. Therefore, I was a little hesitant to try this recipe. What I can tell you is it enhances, not changes, the flavor of the crabmeat. I used lump crabmeat but wouldn't hesitate to use jumbo lump. It is that good! I skipped the cayenne pepper but other than that, followed the recipe. I have only a little left over and I plan to stuff a couple fillets of flounder for tomorrow. I served this dish with a side of sweet potatoes and coleslaw. Thank you Al Peacock for sharing your recipe. It's a winner in my book!

Crackle Top Fudge Sauce

Reviewed: Feb. 22, 2012

EXCELLENT! I made this according to the recipe and realized it never told you to add the vanilla extract, so I didn't. It was a wonderful chocolate fudge topping. Hubby said to please keep this recipe. He loved it! Knowing his favorite flavor is mint chocolate chip, I added some peppermint extract to some of the left-over sauce and asked him what he thought. "Absolutely a winner!" Either way, this sauce is EXCELLENT. It is truly a 5 star recipe in our book!! Thank you Kathy for sharing this EXCELLENT recipe!

Fiber One® Chocolate-Peanut Butter Haystacks

Reviewed: Feb. 7, 2012

VERY YUMMY! This recipe was easy to make and took such little time. If you're a fan of semi-sweet chocolate and peanut butter, you will surely be pleased. I used an ice cream scoop and made them larger so I could top them with an Easter Peep. These are a 5 star yum in my book!

Sugarless Rice Pudding

Reviewed: Feb. 5, 2012

YUMMY & EASY! I used half the pudding as I only had 1 cup of rice. What a wonderful way to use left-over rice. It took no time to make. Thank you Ruth Hannan for sharing your recipe!

INCREDIBLE Raspberry Cheesecake Cookies

Reviewed: Jan. 29, 2012

ABSOLUTELY INCREDIBLE! I love the "hit" of raspberry in this delicious cookie. I also discovered I am married to a cookie monster! This cookie not only tastes good, it is pretty to look at. As I could never find the raspberry chips, I decided to make my own. I used 2/3 cup white chocolate, 1/4 tsp. raspberry extract, red food coloring and a little shortening. I piped the morsels using a zip lock bag onto parchment paper. A few minutes in the refrigerator and they were good to go. The cookies were so easy to make. I found baking 12 minutes worked for me. (note to self for next time). Thank you mis7up for such an ABSOLUTELY INCREDIBLE cookie!
