Cheesy Macaroni and Beef Casserole with Thyme

Reviewed: May 28, 2007

This was very good! I was a little timid of the flour after reading the other reviews...so I added a can of cream of mushroom soup and milk. It turned out great! Also, I had fresh basil instead of fresh thyme on hand, so I used the dried thyme and added fresh basil. I didn't have cherry tomoato, so I diced up some ripe regular tomato. I added extra mustard, I used red wine instead of white (all ready had that open!) and also sauteeed all vegetables seperately: garlic, onion, portobello mushroom, yellow bell pepper, celery. Lastly, I was running out of time, I did this all in a dutch oven on the stove and it was great that way. I never needed to bake it in the oven. I will make this again!

Burrito Pie

Reviewed: Apr. 7, 2003

This was really good. I halved the recipe and it still made a lot. I added taco seasoning and used considerably more cheese than the recipe stated. I overlapped the tortillas and it gave it a firmer texture. I will make this again!

Clams Italiano

Reviewed: Apr. 7, 2003

Excellent dish. Easy to prepare even though it looks and tastes gourmet. My boyfriend loved it. I added mussels and served it over linguine. Next time I think I will add clam juice as one reviewer suggested. This was worthy of being served at a dinner party or for a special occassion. I can't wait to make this again!

Overnight Casserole

Reviewed: Apr. 7, 2003

I didn't care for the way this turned out. It was a bit soupy in texture (I added extra cheese) and there was too much meat for my taste. I added extra seasoning, but it was still bland.

Aunty Pasto's Seafood Lasagna

Reviewed: Apr. 3, 2003

Excellent taste and not complicated to put together. I used oven ready lasagne (according to the package instructions) which means that I used more than the recipe origianlly called for. I also added more cheese. I did not experience the soupy consistency other reviewers spoke of. Also, I think I might experiment with adding scallops or mussels (I'm a lover of all things seafood). I will definately make this again.
