I have eaten collards fixed the traditonal southern way all my life, but I will never fix them that way again. They are so much better cooked this way. I put a dash too much red pepper, next time a little less, but they are so flavorful and delicious. Even my daughters ate them ages 9 and 13!

Fruited Cranberry Relish

Reviewed: Nov. 22, 2007

I had a similar version of this at my work and tried to find it here and this is the recipe I tried. I made it as stated and tasted it. but to me it was still too tart so I added another apple and 1/2 cup of brown sugar and it was very good. It was still a little tart, but I think it will sweeten more over time. We ate it immediately. I had some left, so I will try it again tomorrow. My daughter said it was good with pecans in it too. I think next time I may add a little orange zest to it too.

Spiced Chicken Loaf

Reviewed: Dec. 23, 2006

It was better than I thought. It needs some gravy and it would be great. Hubby liked, which is rare. He is very picky.

Coconut Sour Cream Cake

Reviewed: Aug. 27, 2006

Oh My Gosh! This cake is to die for! I used yellow cake mix and omitted the almond extract. By day four we were fighting over the last couple of slices. I cut my cake layers with thread and it was easy as pie. This was my first time cutting layers, way easier than I thought. We have paid to have this cake made for us, never again. I will be making it myself for now on.

Pepperoni Dip I

Reviewed: Aug. 27, 2006

Very good, I left out the peppers and onions b/c kids were there and it was still good. I think you could play with this and add all your favorite pizza toppings and it would be great. I cooked a french bread loaf and served it with that. Everybody ate it all up!

Party Pinwheels

Reviewed: Aug. 27, 2006

I left out the pepper and used green olives and added chopped fresh tomatoe and cucumbers and it was a hit. I had a couple of people ask me for the recipe. I had no trouble assembling the wraps at all. I made them the day before and cut them right b/f the party.

This was okay, but wasn't very memorable, for me anyway.

Mom's Potato Puffs

Reviewed: Aug. 17, 2006

I liked the flavor, but the potato mixture was so runny. It cooked up really unattractive, so nobody would even try them. I may tweak the recipe and try again.

Slow Cooker Turkey Breast

Reviewed: Aug. 17, 2006

This was the best turkey breast I've ever fixed. It was so easy and so yummy. I'm making a cassarole out of the left overs. I usually chunk them b/c they get so dry, but not this turkey. I will try a whole chicken this way next and see how it comes out.

Easy No Bake Cookies

Reviewed: Aug. 4, 2006

I just made these with my 6 yr. old and they were easy and good. I reduced sugar to 1 cup, may go 3/4 next time b/c these were plenty sweet. I also used vanilla flavor pudding and added 1/2 tsp. cinnamon, and 1 tsp. of cocoa powder. I was out of vanilla flavoring, but I figured since it was, "vanilla" pudding I could get by with it. I did cook my mixture for 3 full minutes as some suggested and they set up perfectly. I left them in the pot, covered for 10 minutes before patting into cookies. That way the oats got a few extra minutes to "cook".

Mashed Sweet Potatoes

Reviewed: Aug. 2, 2006

I personally like these very much and I don't really care for sweet potatoes, but my husband who loves them did not like this, nor my two kids. Go figure.

Dill Pickles

Reviewed: Aug. 1, 2006

This is my first time trying pickles and I was soooo happy with these! I opened my first jar 4 weeks after pickling and boy were they good! This recipe is easy and delicious. If you are thinking of trying pickling and are scared, don't be. This recipe is great. I gave mine a boil bath for 5 minutes and that was enough to seal the jars, and still leave the pickles crunchy. Best dill pickles EVER!

Chocolate Icing

Reviewed: Jul. 20, 2006

I made this right before I went low carb. What a way to go out! It was really good. I added a few chocolate chips and it was creamy, yet it still set nicely.

Egg Drop Soup II

Reviewed: Jul. 20, 2006

This was okay. I put two eggs in and it was too much. Next time I will stick to one. I also dipped a fork in the egg and dripped it in the broth. It looked pretty, but may have cooked too long.

Individual Baked Eggs

Reviewed: Jul. 20, 2006

This was super easy to make and very good. It was very hard to clean the cheese off of the muffin pan however. I will try to find a way to keep it from sticking next time.

Egg Salad III

Reviewed: Jul. 20, 2006

I love eggs, I love olives, I hated this! The flavors just don't go well together. I am from the south and it's sweet pickles and Duke's mayo all the way for me.
