I used all Macintosh, because I had a bag of them. They are a softer and sweeter apple. I tossed apples in plastic bag with (less) sugar and cinnamon. Even if it happens not to brown to what you think it should, DO NOT overcook or you will have apple mush, tho still tasty.

Reviewed: Mar. 21, 2010

Very good for a simple side to a cuban pork roast I was making. I cooked my brown rice separately in a rice cooker.

Slow Cooker Turkey Stew

Reviewed: Oct. 13, 2008

I was excited to be the first to review a recipe! Mine was very very salty. It must be the cubes I used, they were Knorr, 1 cube makes 2 cups. Otherwise very easy.

Slow Cooker Pork Chops II

Reviewed: Oct. 11, 2008

Shoulder chops browned and only cooked for 4 hrs were dry. Flavor was not impressive. I would guess that only well marbled chops with fat would be more tender.

Fifteen Minute Chicken Chili

Reviewed: Oct. 1, 2008

Very easy, very good. I substituted some diced tomatoes for chicken broth, and added a teaspoon of molasses in the end because I thought it was a bit too sharp. Also simmered for about an hour.

Country Banana Bread

Reviewed: Feb. 19, 2008

Super-fast quick banana cake. Very easy. So easy I can't say it's 5 star. Only had 3 bananas, I reduced oil as well, to 1/2 cup - then read the cake box which only requires 1/3 c. - still good. Added 4oz cup of unsweetened applesauce and 1 cup of chocolate chips. Good fluffy cake!

Chicken Stir-Fry

Reviewed: Dec. 19, 2007

Easy and fun to make. My chicken did not crisp, perhaps because I added extra tbsp soy sauce, dash sesame oil, red pepper flakes to the bag. I used 1 bag froz stir-fry vegs and added an onion cut into thin wedges. I used powdered ginger and garlic then realized I had both fresh so I added the garlic to the bag and extra ginger at end of cooking. Could use more sauce to flavor rice but nothing a few dashes of soy couldn't remedy.

White Chili with Ground Turkey

Reviewed: Oct. 22, 2007

This is different and delicous. If using the 3-5 cups of broth, I would suggest not adding cheese to pot as it gets stringy and just sticks to the pot and serving utensil. Pureeing some beans for thicker base would probably help this. I used 1 can great northern, 1 can red kidney, and 1 small can corn because it's what I had - and adds some color. I also used some whole cumin seeds, in addition to listed ingreds.

Linguine with Asparagus, Bacon, and Arugula

Reviewed: May 9, 2007

I used zucchini instead of asparagus. 2 lemons made just over 1/4 cup of juice, I did not use the olive oil in the cooking of zucchini, but put it in w/ the lemon juice and added salt and pepper - mixed and poured over. I recommend to crumble the bacon for more all around flavor. The bites of just pasta were somewhat bland, but my husband says it's a nice summery dish.

Rainbow Pasta Salad II

Reviewed: Apr. 24, 2007

This was not a hit for my party. I liked the refreshing ingredients. Probably a little too different for traditional tastebuds.

Hash Brown Casserole II

Reviewed: Apr. 24, 2007

I added bread crumbs in the last few minutes and broiled to toast them instead of corn flakes, I added a pinch of dried parsley for color and a pinch of thyme, which really rounded out a nice flavor.

Hot Artichoke and Spinach Dip II

Reviewed: Feb. 22, 2007

dee-lish! Mix the mozz in, because otherwise the top gets crusty when the dip cools and it's not too appealing.

Deidra's Hot Wings

Honey Baked Chicken II

Reviewed: Jan. 10, 2007

Without even telling my husband about the rave reviews, he said this one is the best ever. Served skinless cut up chicken with green beans over jasmine rice. As directed, and added a bit of cayenne pepper for zip. Mmmm!
