Monkey Bread I

Reviewed: Aug. 9, 2007
Yummy, yummy! This was soooo easy to make and eaten up quite quickly! Cinnamon-sugar mixture could be cut in half, and we left off the raisins and walnuts, as my kids don't like 'em. This recipe is a keeper!!

Grandma's Five Cup Salad

Reviewed: Aug. 16, 2007
My mother-in-law gave me this recipe with all the same ingredients, using 1 cup of each so it was truly "5 cup salad." However, the variation I use to make it lower fat and less calories, is replace the sour cream with dannon low-fat peach yogurt. Hubby thinks it tastes better with the yogurt.

Spicy Oven-Roasted Plums

Reviewed: Oct. 22, 2007
WOW! These were so wonderful and couldn't have been any easier to make. I followed the recipe exactly, and WOW! I wasn't sure about the combination of spices, so I made a test batch, but WOW...I'll be using the rest of the plums to make this for a delicious dessert to bring to my neighbors party! WOW!

Spaghetti Squash I

Reviewed: Dec. 11, 2007
This was great! I added sea salt and ground pepper, upped the feta to 1 cup, added a little more garlic, because we love garlic, and deleted the olives since we are not olive fans, but found this recipe to be wonderful! Addendum: Oh my, my...this tastes better the next day, cold! It still tastes great warmed up....but cold it is amazing!

Mock Coconut Pie (Spaghetti Squash Pie)

Reviewed: Dec. 29, 2007
I was a little skeptical about this at first, but I had left over spaghetti squash after making another recipe on this site, and had all the other ingredients on hand. It ended up tasting quite good! It is good either warm or cooled, however we liked it better warm. Thanks for the interesting new recipe!

Lentil Soup

Reviewed: Jan. 26, 2008
Loved it! I added more carrots and celery, cut the lentils to 1 1/2 cups and added more vinegar. It is even better leftover! Thanks for the great and healthy recipe.

Lasagna Alfredo

Reviewed: Sep. 26, 2008
This was great...the hubby and kids loved it! I didn't have ricotta so I substituted with cottage cheese. We like dark meat so I used chicken thighs, and I deleted the salt and pepper. This recipe is a keeper! Thanks!

Sunshine Hummus Melts

Reviewed: Feb. 18, 2011
When I took the first bite, I wasn't sure I liked this...I liked each item individually, but not thinking I liked them together! After each successive bite the flavors were growing on me. By the time I ate the entire sandwich, I had decided I liked it and would definitely make this recipe again. I used Honey Crisp apples because that is what I had in the house, next time I'll try to stick to the recipe and use Granny Smith.

Mendi's Favorite Orzo

Reviewed: Nov. 2, 2008
I love mushrooms, but a couple family members don't, so I omitted those, but bet this tastes better WITH. I will make them another time with mushrooms as a side for me and the mushroom lovers in the house. To make up for the olive oil, butter and mushrooms that I omitted, I added a few shakes of garlic powder and a Tastefully Simple season salt and this was a nice side dish. Can't wait to try it with the mushrooms!

Cheesy Baked Cauliflower II

Reviewed: Oct. 22, 2009
Loved this recipe...although I made some changes. I drizzled 2 tbsps olive oil rather than butter and added shredded cheddar to the swiss. I also added garlic powder omitting salt and pepper. I only had one tomato at home...next time I'll be sure to use two. I baked until the cauliflower was slightly browned. It turned out terrific!

Best Apple Salad

Reviewed: Nov. 27, 2009
This was tasty, and I enjoyed the crunch factor and the variety of flavors! I added celery like a previous reviewer, and kept some of the juice from the kidney beans as per another reviewer; used green onions and yellow bell pepper rather than red onion and green pepper, but it was what I happened to have in the house. This salad seems to be versatile depending on what you have in the fridge...kept the dressing as is...it really popped!! Thank you so much!

Butternut Squash Fries

Reviewed: Dec. 1, 2009
These were TERRIFIC as written...I tried adding spices other reviewers added, and they were also tasty that way...but they are truly good without olive oil, and with salt only...I used a potato peeler to remove the outer skin before slicing into fries...worked great! Thanks for this healthy way to enjoy fries!

Quinoa Side Dish

Reviewed: Jan. 11, 2010
5 stars for the blend of flavors, as the flavor of this dish was wonderful...but unfortunately the rest of my family did not like the texture of quinoa. I will try substituting brown rice for quinoa next time to see if that goes over better.

Lentil Rice and Veggie Bake

Reviewed: Jan. 31, 2010
This recipe was awesome tasting and quite filling. I substituted short grain brown rice for long grain white. Red lentils are a must!

Skillet Chicken and Rice

Reviewed: Mar. 13, 2009
I substituted the soup broth with water and bouillon (sorry Campbells!); used 2 cloves garlic vs. garlic powder and brown rice rather than the white...the kids and hubby were practically licking their plates, needless to say there were no leftovers!

Cabbage Roll Casserole

Reviewed: Aug. 8, 2007
I changed up a few things, but with the end product using your basic recipe, my family enjoyed it! I sauteed onions and 2 cloves minced garlic while frying up the meat; used cooked brown rice, and added basil and parsley to all when combining everything. Like a previous reviewer, I steamed, rather than baking it for an hour, and it turned out yummy, husband and kids agreed!

Creamed Chicken over Beans

Reviewed: Apr. 27, 2012
YUM! I did an ingredient search because I had leftover chicken and a package of french cut green beans. When I read this recipe I was not sure it would work with my kids, but I had all the ingredients, so I took a chance since the reviews were quite good. Well, it lived up to it's rating and reviews! Didn't change a thing....quick and easy, it was a hit with myself and my teens! Try it...you'll like it!
