Banana Crumb Muffins

Reviewed: Aug. 30, 2009

To make these a little healthier, I reduced the butter to 2 tbsp and the white sugar to 1/4 cup. Then, I added six bananas total to the recipe for extra moistness and sweetness. They turned out GREAT!

Easy Whole Wheat Peanut Butter Cookies

Reviewed: Jan. 23, 2009

We thought these cookies were wonderful. I loved knowing that it used only whole wheat flour. My family never could tell the difference. Visually, they looked like the same ol' (unhealthy) ones I always made. I added 1/2 cup of quick oats and used crunchy peanut butter. My husband requested that we use this recipe exclusively just because of the hint taste of honey. It made me smile because he didn't realize how healthy they were for him.

Oatmeal Butterscotch Cookies

Reviewed: Oct. 1, 2008

These cookies are really sweet. Next time, I intend to decrease the sugar by 1/4 each and decrease the flour to 1 cup only. I also used 1 stick of butter and 1/4 cup of veg. shortening to help the cookies stay extra soft.

Pizza Dough I

Reviewed: Sep. 22, 2008

Not my favorite dough recipe, but I REALLY like that it was quick. I rolled the dough in a 13x9 inch pan and it worked out great! Not too thick, not too thin. Just perfect.

My Amish Friend's Caramel Corn

Reviewed: Sep. 22, 2008

YUMMY! This recipes makes a generous portion of caramel corn. I popped two cups of regular popcorn in a combination of equal amounts of olive and canola oil (approximate 1/4 cup each). Then proceeded with the rest of the recipe as usual. Our family of 6 is still eating on it three days later. I plan on making it to give out in small fall bags at our church's party, The Reformation Festival.

Chocolate Chocolate Chip Cookies I

Reviewed: Jun. 4, 2008

My family absolutely loved these cookies! My 4yo actually asked me to make these again instead of buying a very popular chocolate and creme centered cookie at the store. I followed the directions exactly as written with one exception. I used 1/2 cup butter and 1/2 cup vegetable shortening. The cookies turned out soft and oh so full of chocolate! Absolutely delicious! A recipe I will make again and again.

Polynesian Sausage Supper

Reviewed: May 27, 2008

My family didn't like this recipe. It wasn't nearly sweet or spicy enough. We just like recipes with more punch. I did like the flavor of the sausage, onions and peppers together, of course.

Chicken Enchiladas II

Reviewed: Feb. 13, 2008

Whenever I make these enchiladas, I add a can of cream of chicken soup. Also, I add an extra can of green chiles and about 1/4 tsp of cumin. This helps make it go a little farther and a little more favorable. I use whatever filling I have leftover in the bowl to top the tortillas with before I bake them. Then, I had the Cheddar cheese to melt for about 5 minutes before they are finished.

Amish White Bread

Reviewed: Feb. 13, 2008

This receipe is wonderful! My family (ranging from teenagers to toddlers and a Darling Husband) really enjoyed it. They actually passed on dessert and had another slice of bread with strawberry jam. I did follow the recipe exactly as it was written. Although I thought 2/3 cup of sugar was alot, it turned out fine. I will probably cut it back to 1/2 cup next time. This recipe is one that will be used a lot in my household. I made sandwiches from the second loaf and they tasted so much better than store bought bread! I hope this helps encourage you to give bread making a try. It's worth the extra effort to fill your home with the aroma and pleasure of warm bread.

Pretty Good. I did follow some other suggestions. I added an egg and cinnamon to the flour mixture. I also topped the bars with a simple powdered sugar/butter/milk frosting. They turned out very well. Family liked them. I liked the versaility of being able to use whatever jam I have on hand for this simple recipe.

Raspberry Cheese Spread

Reviewed: Dec. 28, 2007

I prepared this recipe for my Christmas Brunch and received rave reviews! I should have expected it seeing it came from Taste of Home's sister magazine, Simple and Delicious. I made the recipe as direct expect I choose to use lighter versions of the mayo and cheeses. Remember to make it early in the day or the night before so the flavors can blend. I just put the preserves on right before serving. Truly, it was the talk of the party. No one expected raspberry and cheese to taste so well together, but it was delicious! While easy to prepare, I will be including this recipe in my tried and trusted collection.

Apple Loaf

Reviewed: Sep. 22, 2006

Wonderful recipe. I added 1 tsp cinnamon to spice it up a bit. The smell welcomed my family when they came home and treated their tastebuds after dinner with a delicious dessert topped with a heaping dollop of Cool Whip.

Apple Butter Pork Loin

Reviewed: Jan. 19, 2006

This is the absolute best recipe I have ever made(and that's saying something)! My family just raved about the pork. They even encouraged me to open my own restaurant with this recipe as a feature item. I know this will be served repeatedly to my family and company. I served it with sugar snap peas and roasted red potatoes drizzled with olive oil and sprinkled with Italian seasoning. This is a KEEPER recipe no cook should be without.

Hearty Ham Casserole

Reviewed: Jan. 19, 2006

Very tasty! My family truly enjoyed it. A great way to use up leftover ham. This recipe reminded me of a dressed up hashbrown casserole with ham added to it.

Apple Walnut Bread

Reviewed: Jan. 19, 2006

Very moist bread which got even better the next day. I made a regular size loaf and 7 mini loaves. I like baking the mini loaves better due to the decreased baking time (30 minutes). While they were cooking, my mom kept asking if they were done (a big compliment to me)!

White Turkey Chili

A keeper recipe! I used 2 cans of great northern beans and one can of navy beans. I mashed one of the great northern beans. We really enjoyed the recipe! Not only was the recipe fast and easy, but my entire family enjoyed it. This is a recipe I will make again and again.
