Jerky Lover's Jerky - Sweet, Hot and Spicy!

Reviewed: Dec. 3, 2009

LOVED, LOVED, LOVED it!!! Followed the recipe exactly, but changed the cooking method. We are using elk and have made 6 batches so far. I take the sliced up elk and boil it for about 3 minutes. I then drain it and put it into the marinade immediately and marinate it for 3 hours. And then dehydrate it. It only takes 2 hours to dry this way. EVERYONE in my family loves it. Thanks for sharing!

Island Barbecue Chicken

Reviewed: Oct. 4, 2009

Family loved it. Didn't have time to marinate overnight so poked lots of holes with a fork and made marinade extra thick by using only 1 cup water and added 1/2 cup corn syrup. Blackened the thighs on the grill. Flipped several times basting each time. Finished them off in the oven at 400F about 15-20 minutes.

Roast Pork

Reviewed: Aug. 5, 2009

We LOVED this! I cooked this in the crock pot for 8 hours and didn't marinate is at all. I only used 1/2 c. of sugar instead of 3/4 c. I used 5 fresh squeezed limes. I think it could have used a little more soy sauce. After it cooked all day, I boiled rice and made gravy out of the sauce that it had been cooking in all day. It was wonderful. Everyone loved it!

Busy Mom Peach Cobbler

Reviewed: Jul. 10, 2009

My family LOVED it! I didn't have self rising flour so used regular flour and a teas. of baking powder. I didn't put in nutmeg. I added vanilla. I was worried about it being too sweet, but it was perfect. I served it w/ vanilla bean ice cream. WONDERFUL!

Milo's Torch Cafe Original Idaho Finger Steaks

Reviewed: Jun. 23, 2009

So... we REALLY liked these. BUT.. next time I will be adding garlic salt or garlic powder to them. The batter definitely needs to be refrigerated. It makes a leathery like shell on the finger steaks. We live in the Boise area so we just might need to head over there and try these out. I made the Blooming Onion and Dipping Sauce to go along with it. The finger steaks in that dipping sauce is great!

Slow Cooker Buffalo Chicken Sandwiches

Reviewed: Apr. 27, 2009

LOVED them! My family thought they were too hot, but I figured. I was thinking that I will make them and make taquitos out of them next time or just chicken tacos.

Bacon Wrapped Hamburgers

Reviewed: Mar. 15, 2009

These were okay, but I won't make them again. After they were cold, my husband thought that they tasted like meatloaf.

Chicken Tacos

Reviewed: Feb. 19, 2009

My husband LOVED, LOVED, LOVED these!!I didn't have lemonade, so I used lemon juice and water. I added cumin also. I simmered it until it started falling apart. pretty close to the end of the simmering added a handful cilantro. The cilantro was essential!! really made the flavor! We served them on warm flour tortillas w/ fresh cilatro, chopped onion, rice and bean (on the shell), plus I used a tomatillo green sauce that I bought at a local Mexican restuarant. My husband used their spicier red sauce on his. FABULOUS!! We will be eating these often!

Pan Sauteed Chicken with Vegetables and Herbs

Reviewed: Feb. 17, 2009

I used boneless, skinless chicken breasts instead of bone-in. In the flour mix, I added garlic salt, celery salt and rosemary leaves (they were sitting on the counter and sounded good). Everything else I did the same. My family loved it and I will make it a regular. It's not just chicken and vegetables like another reviewer said. The seasonings and the lemon juice liven up the veggies. The onions tasted like candy... the words of my 8 year old. A wonderful change from plain old chicken and best of all, I had all the ingredients in my cupboard.

Sweet Pea Mockamole

Reviewed: Jan. 26, 2009

ABSOLUTELY FABULOUS!! I can't believe have good this stuff is! IT's the only way my husband will eat his peas. I added 1/2 a jalepeno, a little more onion, more lemon juice, less oil, about 1 c. of cilantro and about 6 grape tomatoes. I will NEVER go back to avacado guacamole again.

Carne Asada Tacos

Reviewed: Jan. 14, 2009

I am definitly going to make these again.. I just had to tweak the meat a little. We go to a little Mexican hole-in-the-wall and they have spoiled us on the best carne asada ever. So this didn't begin to measure up to that and that was what I was hoping for. But for me, it wasn't bad and we'll make it again. I added quite a bit of garlic salt to the meat for a little more flavor.

Swiss Steak Italian Style

Reviewed: Dec. 17, 2008

I made this for dinner tonight and everyone loved it. I cooked it all day long in the crock pot. I also did deer steaks instead of beef. I'm always looking for a way to mask the gaminess of deer and this did it. I didn't have wine, so I added a little vinegar. I also added several splashes of worchestersire sauce and fresh crushed garlic. Toward the end it mixed a little water and flour to thicken it. I will make it again. Thanks for sharing!

Enhanced Spaghetti

Reviewed: Dec. 17, 2008

I really like this. I have several kids who don't like spaghetti sauce and just eat the noodles so they thought it tasted great. It was easy and the flavor was nice so I'm not sure what the complaints are about. Sure, the sauce covers up the taste but did you really expect it to stick out that much?? Anyhow, I liked the cook time. Easy to remember. I will probably do this from now on. Thanks for the recipe.

Root Beer Float Cake II

Reviewed: Dec. 14, 2008

These were unique. I'm definately going to make them again and use the root beer extract everyone else is talking about. I couldn't find it the day I needed it, but I will hunt it down for the next time. I made them for my 2 daughter's birthday party and everyone thought it was great that they were eating rootbeer cupcakes!!

Real Homemade Tamales

Reviewed: Dec. 14, 2008

Alright... of course I tweaked this a little bit. I made it with chicken breasts. I had 3 huge chicken breasts so I had enough for another batch today. So last night I made them pretty much like the recipe said. I only added a little lime juice to the masa. We liked them, but thought they could be better. So today, we added some cumin and 1/2 a can of red and 1/2 a can of green enchiladas sauce. And to the masa I added a little garlic salt. They were perfect! My husband ate about 10 of them and each of my (EXTREMELY) picky kids ate 3 each! I served them w/ Mexican Rice II. WE will be making these often. Now my mom wants me to teach her how to make them!

Big Soft Ginger Cookies

Reviewed: Dec. 14, 2008

Thanks for the recipe! These are my new favorite cookies. I double the batch and didn't change a thing except the cooking time. I cooked them for about 12 minutes. They were a little doughy when cooked for 10 minutes. I'm going to make 2 triple batches for Christmas gifts this week!
