Classic Macaroni Salad

Reviewed: Apr. 23, 2012

I'm the person that always adds the extra ingredients to "make it my own". Although I cut back on the sugar, and I really don't understand pimentos; I think this recipe is perfect! Sweet, tangy, creamy and simple!

Caramel Popcorn

Reviewed: Sep. 22, 2011

I never waited for caramel corn before; I always ate it warm and chewy--- made by someone else. The anticipation was killer and I admit there was lots of melty, sweet nibbling. Other than lack of self-control, I sure would have liked a line that reminded me to clean out the duds, but hey, I can pretend they are really hard peanuts. I think the "secret" has to do with when you stop stirring and when you take it off the burner. The mixing and waiting is tedious but I think the results (after cooling) were top notch. (except for the duds)

New York Cheesecake III

Reviewed: Dec. 2, 2010

Made this twice, the first time it cracked, but was otherwise perfect, covered with a ganache and it was a hit. 2nd time I used a waterbath and "yea", no cracks! But downside I didn't adjust cooking time and got a really soft center. My bad, should have watched for the top to brown up before reducing the heat. Love the recipe.

Chicken Tikka Masala

Reviewed: Aug. 24, 2010

The chicken really is delish. I only marinated it for the hour specified and WOW! I cut the cayenne in half because we aren't a spicy family, and the warmth still lingered. I K O'd the Jalepeno, too. I used the recommended salt, hoping it would cook out. I dare say that helped make the chicken so wonderfully tender--- and the cayenne and black pepper I left in overpowered the salt. Still five stars--- I just finished off the leftovers!

No Bake Choco-Peanut-Oatmeal Cookies

Reviewed: Aug. 9, 2010

I followed the recipe exactly and didn't have any problems with the cookies setting. Next time I would definitely up the peanut butter, add a pinch of salt, and use 1/2 tsp of vanilla. Thanks for the recipe, it was a hit for a hot August night!

Indian Tomato Chicken

Reviewed: Jun. 9, 2010

This was perfect! Processing the onion mixture added to the saucy texture, and as I only had a 28oz can of tomatoes, I used the whole thing. That was perfect because it diluted the spices enough that my family couldn't complain it was too spicy. It also left enough sauce to scoop up with the naan! Iwill try it with cut up chicken bits next time because the thighs looked so lonely... thanks for the recipe, it's a keeper!

Fresh Strawberry Upside Down Cake

Reviewed: May 10, 2010

This is too cool! It stayed moist without being soggy, but it's best eaten warm. I didn't have any problems getting it out of the pan, and I followed the original recipe.The Jello adds a nice tang to strawberries that might not be perfect---- and marshmallows??? WHO KNEW!?

Peanutbutteriest Cookies Ever

Reviewed: Aug. 26, 2009

If you are looking for the soft and chewy cookies mom used to make, keep looking, these are a sandies kind of cookie. The texture on these cookies is what makes them FABULOUS! I've made them several times and never had a problem. Let them cool on the sheet and they are melt in you mouth ready to eat, and I dare you not to eat them all!

V-Eight Vegetable Beef Soup

Reviewed: Jul. 22, 2009

I can't say I liked it. I started out with the recipe as is... but it lacks seasoning! It is what it is, a quick substitute for vegetable beef soup. I tried to save it with the onion soup mix, but that wasn't enough. I ended up adding thyme, oregano and basil, and it was edible. I'm going back to a broth based soup, sorry guys---- and ground beef in a soup? Noooooooooo!

Fabulous Wet Burritos

Reviewed: Jul. 13, 2009

Wet burritos--- who knew they were such a regional favorite. East coast doesn't get it, unless you run into someone from Michigan. This turned out superb... although the tomato soup was noticeably tomato soup--- Enchilada sauce is the perfect substitute ***NOT SALSA!

Ranch Dressing II

Reviewed: Apr. 11, 2009

One of the most satisfying things about this recipe is when someone says, "That's homemade, isn't it?" Even if you look at it as a bunch of dried spices, it doesn't taste like it came out of a bottle, or one of those little packets. Yea!

Naan

Reviewed: Apr. 8, 2009

Family loved this!!! Oddly enough, the yeast never bloomed, I think I was basically making glue patties and throwing them on the grill... Yet they turned out! I'll keep trying this recipe, It totally makes the Indian experience.

Honey-Balsamic Vinaigrette

Reviewed: Apr. 8, 2009

It didn't work for me. I was sad, but the honey took away all the things I liked about balsamic vinegar. Still searching...

Alfredo Sauce

Reviewed: Apr. 8, 2009

Worth every star. Temper the egg. I added garlic powder 'cause that's the way I roll! We are sauce-aholics, so I doubled the recipe--- just perfect!

Cookie Balls

Reviewed: Feb. 24, 2009

Captivating, as you turn those crumbs into mud! I wasn't as into the flavor, but they got rave reviews from anyone who had them. It was a solid mess trying to roll those balls in the candy coating, i haven't figured a good system for that yet.

Buffalo Chicken Wings

Reviewed: Jan. 18, 2009

I used this recipe because I thought baking would enhance the crispy/saucy flavor. WRONG! Frying is certainly the way to go--- all the way! The sauce totally lost itself after baking and I'll bet it wouldn't have if I hadn't baked them. But as everyone else has said, the bleu cheese dip is uber yummy!
