I'm not the greatest cook and my husband does most of the cooking. As a birthday treat, I told him I'd cook. He's rather picky but LOVED this recipe! I added fresh garlic and basil but otherwise followed the recipe as written. I'm slowly gaining faith in my cooking skills thanks to this great meal! Thank you!

Sweet, Sticky and Spicy Chicken

Reviewed: Jun. 3, 2012

Very tasty! My family loved it. I would cut chunks of chicken smaller next time and also add some celery, carrots and water chestnuts. Sauce is delicious! I, too, dredged the chicken in flour prior to cooking and tripled the sauce. Excellent!!

Mary's Meatloaf

Reviewed: Nov. 20, 2011

Very tasty but I read other reviews and followed their advice of adding 1/2 oatmeal in place of the bread. Next time, I'll either use the bread or add more oatmeal because the meatloaf was a little loose. The topping is very good and meatloaf extremely moist. This one is a keeper!

Baked Pork Chops I

Reviewed: Nov. 20, 2011

Fairly easy although I would add fresh garlic instead of garlic powder. I also added fresh mushrooms to the sauce and a little more wine. Overall, tasty and moist especially with the gravy.

High Five Orange Rolls

Reviewed: Apr. 9, 2012

Possibly because I live at 5500 feet above sea level but my dough didn't rise AT ALL. I used plenty of flour, and kneaded the dough with my bread hook as well as by hand. Maybe keep this in mind if you live at high altitude. disappointed!
