Clam Chowder Canadian Military Style

Reviewed: Feb. 15, 2010

DELICIOUS*** beware, you'll want to eat a gallon of it! I cut a bit of fat by using 2 Tbsp butter, made roux with 1/4 cup of flour, then added half of a bottle of clam juice to the other 1/4 cup of flour, blending it well before adding it to the pan. I then added the rest of the bottle of clam juice with the reserved juice from the clam cans, then the water. I also used fat-free evaporated milk and added 1/2 cup of thinly sliced baby carrots. Big-time keeper!

Pork Chops with Fresh Tomato, Onion, Garlic, and Feta

Reviewed: Feb. 15, 2010

Rave reviews for this dish! I did make a few adjustments to suit my pantry and my family's palates: Used three medium roma tomatoes (diced) instead of grape tomatoes, added 1 cup of torn spinach leaves, and added half of the feta cheese as spinach leaves wilted in the pan with the tomatoes, and then family added feta to their own taste as a final garnish. I also omitted vinegar altogether... Feta added exactly the right tanginess. Great complement to pork!

Best Big, Fat, Chewy Chocolate Chip Cookie

Reviewed: Dec. 19, 2009

My son (17) made these with delicious results! He added only 1 1/4 cups of semi-sweet chips, and baked them for about 12 minutes, but they were delicious. He says he's never going to buy refrigerated cookie dough again!

Chantal's New York Cheesecake

Reviewed: Nov. 30, 2009

I have found a holiday mainstay dessert & vow never to buy a ready-made cheesecake again. Mine cracked but I think that one of the teenagers disturbed it during the hours in the oven... nobody cared! Definitely make this if you want to impress!!!

Better than I even expected! I added sauteed onions (medium yellow sweet). Yummmm! Even the teenagers ate it, and they're picky.

Won Ton Wrapper Appetizers

Reviewed: Oct. 13, 2009

Easy but bland -- be sure to use spicy sausage or some of the additions mentioned. Don't overbake -- those shells get tough if they are cooked too long (yup, I ruined a tray full).

Broiled Grouper with Creamy Crab and Shrimp Sauce

Reviewed: Oct. 12, 2009

A definite MUST COOK for those who want to impress family and guests. I substituted Zatarain's Creole Seasoning (a little over a tsp) & didn't add any salt to the sauce besides what is in the Creole Seasoning. Also omitted lemon juice & opted to let my family squirt lemon on top if they preferred. Used uncooked shrimp instead of canned. My family LOVED it.

My family of six actually ate all of this soup in a single day. Very tasty and satisfying with crusty, toasted bread.

MMMM! I used Pepper Jack cheese instead of Monterey, yellow bell pepper, a medium chopped tomato instead of canned tomatoes, and a little less salt. I love it!
