Breaded and Baked Zucchini

Reviewed: May 14, 2012

I loved the concept .... I made the recipe as given, using Greek Salad Dressing instead of Italian. It was really good but needs tweeting. The zucchini was cooked perfectly. I think I need more color of the bread crumbs when cooked. I loved the faint mustard taste. I had to use plain GF bread crumbs so next time I will add some cheese, basil, or oregano, etc. Just having something breaded that is so good when we are avoiding gluten is a BIG PLUS. Thank you.

Roquefort Pear Salad

Reviewed: Apr. 26, 2012

What a refreshing and filling salad. I used red onion instead of green onion, added a sliced hard boil egg, and kept everything else the same. What a wonderful masterpiece. I will be making this again, very soon. Thank you.

Chicken and Red Wine Sauce

Reviewed: Apr. 21, 2012

Nothing special. I cut down on the sugar as recommended by other reviewers. It was still too sweet for me although the house smelled so wonderful. Easy prep, though. I will not be making this again.

Cheesy Zucchini Casserole I

Reviewed: Apr. 11, 2012

Delicious. A tad over done veggies but still delicious to a person who hates mushy veggies. I changed things a little .... used GF bread crumbs (small amount as it was all I had), 3 C. zucchini, 2 eggs, 1/3 C. Cheddar cheese in mixture and 1 1/3 C. Cheddar cheese on top. I used a Pyrex dish 8" x 11" and baked it just under the required time. Next time I would add crushed or sliced garlic. What a wonderful find. Thank you.

Amy Rose's Roasted Cauliflower Soup

Reviewed: Mar. 4, 2012

This recipes needs tweeting but has possibilities. I LOVED the cumin in this recipe. Perhaps my Magic Bullet pulverized the soup too much, but I would prefer it chunkier and thicker. I added some chopped red onions near the end of the cooking with the broth and added shredded cheddar cheese on top when serving. There will be a next time!!! I think I will thicken it with a slightly thickened white sauce. Yeah, I know, more calories, but we just like thicker soups.

Old-World Cabbage Soup

Reviewed: Feb. 4, 2012

5 stars with slight tweeking ..... could not imagine ketchup in soup so I omitted it. (No problem) I added 2 large cloves of garlic (yum) and added 2 cans of drained red beans = yes. Next time I will add some cooked ground turkey and only used one can of beans.. Also, there is no need to microwave the veggies.

Sweet and Sour Meatballs II

Reviewed: Jan. 16, 2012

The sauce makes this recipe ..... the meatballs are dull. Next time I will add some herbs to the meatball recipe. I am disappointed with the high calorie content but sometimes we just have to SPLURGE!! I used ground turkey and Gluten Free bread crumbs. I buy a lot of ground turkey when it goes on sale ..... it's great to have a REAL NICE 'change of pace' recipe.

Fresh Asparagus and Chicken Casserole

Reviewed: Dec. 31, 2011

Very disappointing .... due to blandness even after adding garlic. I used par-boiled broccoli (asparagus is too expensive in winter) but the result would be the same using the called-for asparagus. We will eat the leftovers but putting horseradish/sour cream on top. I will not be making this again.

Easy Slow Cooker Sweet and Sour Pork Chops

Reviewed: Dec. 13, 2011

Nice flavor and very easy. I used more chopped onions, added fresh pressed garlic, added a "glob of peach preserves, substituted apple cider vinegar for the lemon, and added bell pepper chunks and sliced canned pineapple (both near the end). I thickened the sauce to use as gravy over rice. Next time I will cut the onions in big chunks and add red food coloring for a more traditional looking dish. I love the ease of using a crock pot. I will make this often. Thanks.

Oven Roasted Red Potatoes and Asparagus

Reviewed: Nov. 17, 2011

OMG .... this is delicious. Be sure to add the asparagus at the end so it doesn't overcook. I cut mine in 4ths. Upon cooling (waiting for my husband to end his business call), I drizzled some Balsamic Vinegar on top. (This advanced the rating to a 15. Tee Hee.) Next time I made add a little while cooking. Also, next time I will add some diced red onions. I will be making this soon. :)

Rita's Spinach Casserole

Reviewed: Oct. 27, 2011

I agree to reviewer's comments such as adding onion, garlic, more Italian seasoning, etc. I used 1 1/4 C. sour cream along with 1 small can of tomato sauce and 1 can undiluted tomato soup. Not dry out at all. I mixed the pasta, ground turkey, sauce, soup, seasoning and half of the spinach. Love the green color on top w/ the cheese with some spinach mixed in. Totally tasteful and makes a lot! Thank you sooooo much. My husband rated it a "14". It IS comfort food.
