Chicken Thigh Fricassee with Mushrooms and Rosemary

Reviewed: Sep. 13, 2009

We really enjoyed this one. I had to make just a couple of substitutions. I used a Tuscan Herb seasoning because I didn't have rosemary, and I actually used regular green olives. And I'm pretty sure I at least doubled the mushrooms. The chicken was so tender, and everything really blended well. Even my ten year old son loved it and asked that I make it every week!

This was really good! It was such a unique mix of indredients that I had to try it, and I'm so glad I did. My guy and I both loved it served over egg noodles. It was so easy to make, I didn't change a thing. I'm sure I'll make it again. Thanks!

Peanutbutteriest Cookies Ever

Reviewed: May 24, 2004

These have such a great peanut butter flavor! I made just a few changes to lighten up a little on the sugar and fat. I used Splenda in place of sugar, and instead of using a cup of butter, I used 1/2 cup butter and 1/2 cup no-sugar added applesauce. They turned out delicious! I didn't have a problem with them crumbling, either. But then again, they're being eaten as fast as I'm getting them out of the oven! Thanks for the great recipe!

Baked Teriyaki Chicken

Reviewed: Apr. 4, 2004

My family loved this one! It was so easy and tasted great! I did make one substitution, I used about 8 packets of Equal in place of the white sugar for the diabetic in my house. Next time I might try using low-sodium soy sauce, just to cut down on the sodium a little. I only made 5 pieces of chicken, thighs and drumsticks, and there was just enough sauce, but I basted it a lot! Even my five year old loved it! Thanks for the quick, easy, low-fat recipe!

French Silk Chocolate Pie I

Reviewed: Jan. 19, 2004

We love this recipe! I was looking for a chocolate pie that used the ingredients I had on hand and this was it. I've made it several times and it turns out each time. I use cocoa powder and oil to substitute for the melted chocolate. To make sure I beat it for the full amount of time, I set a timer. I've never had a problem with it setting up or with the texture being gritty, it turns out perfectly each time. I've used almond extract when I ran out of vanilla, and I've covered the pie with a layer of Cool Whip, then added grated chocolate for a lovely pie. This is my husband's favorite pie now. Thanks for the great recipe.

Easy Biscuits

Reviewed: Jan. 19, 2004

These biscuits were so easy and turned out just the way I wanted! I've tried dozens of recipes and always end up with hard, dry biscuits. These turned out light and fluffy and tasted great with country gravy or jam. I didn't have the self-rising flour so I used regular flour and added about 1 tablespoon of baking powder and 1 teaspoon of salt. These rose nicely and because of folding the dough over before cutting, they were easy to separate into halves for buttering after baking. My oven runs a little warm, so I only needed to bake for about 15 minutes. Yummy! Thanks, this recipe is a keeper!

Vinegar Pie IX

Reviewed: Dec. 12, 2003

This was a tasty pie. The recipe was easy to follow, but it didn't make much pie batter. After I cooked the mix, and poured it into the pie crust, it barely covered the bottom of the crust. So I had to cook up some more quickly to add to the pie pan! Because of the spices, it has a taste and texture similar to pumpkin pie. It was really good with some Cool Whip on top. It's made with ingredients I usually have on hand, so I'm sure I'll make it again, but I'll double the recipe from the start. Thanks!

Pumpkin Pancakes

Reviewed: Dec. 12, 2003

I loved these pancakes! I had leftover pumpkin from Thanksgiving pies, and this was the perfect way to use it! I added a little extra milk to thin the batter, because it was quite thick, and I added some chocolate chips for taste. This made a huge batch of batter, much more than the three of us needed. I added some more flour and sugar (about 3/4 c flour, 1/2 c sugar, but it would depend on how much batter you have left over), and more chocolate chips, to thicken the batter to cookie dough consistency. I dropped them on a cookie sheet and baked for about 12 minutes at 350 degrees. The cookies and the pancakes were both great! Thanks for such an easy and versatile recipe!

Egg Fried Rice

Reviewed: Dec. 12, 2003

This was such an easy way to make fried rice! I added an extra egg, some peas, and leftover cooked turkey for a really tasty main dish. My husband and four year old son both loved it and my hubby asked me to make it again soon! Thanks!

Oaxacan Tacos

Reviewed: Nov. 16, 2003

These are so tasty! They taste just like the ones we used to buy from a street vender. They're so easy! I use a lot less jalapeno and lots of cilantro and lime. I made it one night and my hubby liked it so much he asked for it the next night, but the only beef we had in the house was ground, and it worked great with that. Thanks!

Wings In Cola

Reviewed: Oct. 2, 2003

What an interesting way to prepare wings! I had only cherry cola, so I used that in place of regular soda. And I was short on the brown sugar, so I used 1/2 cup of brown sugar and about 1/4 cup of honey instead. I wanted to keep a sweet taste, so I cut the garlic salt and onion powder in half. I mixed everything together and let it all marinate for about three hours, then dumped everything in a cake pan to bake! I didn't have to turn everything over, just kind of stirred it a couple of times while baking. And I wasn't about to have the oven on for four hours, so I baked it uncovered for about an hour and a half. The taste was great! Sweet and sticky and yummy! My four year old loved them, too! Thanks for sharing the recipe!

Soft and Chewy Peanut Butter Cookies

Reviewed: Sep. 14, 2003

My family really enjoyed these cookies! I made just one substitution, used margarine instead of butter, and they turned out really tasty. I didn't make any other changes to the recipe. The dough was quite soft, I only bothered making the "criss-cross" with the fork for the first sheet of cookies. The cookies flattened out so the indentations of the fork disappeared completely! But the cookies were very soft and chewy, just the way we like them. Thanks!

Brown Sugar Meatloaf

Reviewed: Sep. 12, 2003

My sister tried this recipe and raved about it, so I had to try it! It was great! I didn't have ginger, so I used pumpkin pie spice in it's place and it tasted really good! The brown sugar really added a nice sweetness to the meat. I'll make it again for sure! Thanks!

Grandma's Green Bean Casserole

Reviewed: Sep. 12, 2003

This was a really tasty and easy recipe. I used a bag of frozen green beans in place of the canned beans, and used Garlic Butter Ritz crackers for the cracker crumbs and I loved the taste! It was a hit at my house! A nice change from plain green beans. Thanks!

Potato Bread III

Reviewed: Sep. 10, 2003

This is a great bread recipe! My mom loves a particular potato bread she buys at the farmer's market, and I was trying to duplicate it. This was very close! I left the potatoes a little "chunky" instead of mashing completely, and I reduced the salt to one teaspoon, and it tasted fine. I had to cut the baking time quite a bit, the loaves were ready in about 30 minutes. I liked the recipe so much that I made two batches today, one batch for my mom and one batch for my hubby and son to enjoy, which they did! Thanks!

Honey Bun Cake I

Reviewed: Sep. 10, 2003

My hubby loved this, and so did I! Like other people, I only used about half of the brown sugar mixture and half of the icing. The icing was a little sweet, so next time I'll probably try a cream-cheese based icing. Overall, it was an easy way to dress up a cake mix! Yummy!

Simple Peanut Squash

Reviewed: Sep. 8, 2003

This was a simple, tasty recipe for butternut squash. I used a larger squash, so I had to more than double the cooking time, as well as add extra sugar, butter and salt. I baked it until it was soft and easy to mash. Very tasty!
