Blueberry Cheesecake Ice Cream

Reviewed: Sep. 25, 2008

A.Maz.Ing. Seriously. Followed the recipe exactly, except that I mashed the blueberries in the sauce a little. This was the best homemade ice cream I have ever made!

Uh-maz-ing. Now if only I could eat it without thinking about how fattening it is! Save this one for when you have to impress someone with your cooking skills. It's worth the calorie splurge every now and then.

Baked Teriyaki Chicken

Reviewed: Mar. 25, 2008

This was a delicious teriyaki sauce base. Next time I make it I think I will do the chicken on the grill and baste with the sauce. In the oven, the sauce mixed with the pan juices and became too thin, so the chicken didn't have as much teriyaki flavor as it could have.

Carrot Cake III

Reviewed: Mar. 25, 2008

This is the best homemade carrot cake I have ever had. I got tons of compliments after making it for Easter dinner. Consider substituting applesauce for half of the oil to make it less unhealthy.

Chicken Milano

Reviewed: Mar. 25, 2008

Yummy! Needed a little salt at the table, but very good. I used whole wheat fettucini noodles instead of regular and that went well with the tomato.

Oven Roasted Trout with Lemon Dill Stuffing

Reviewed: Dec. 4, 2007

Delicious! Definitely use sweet onion though, if you have it. I used plain white onions because that's what I had and it made the stuffing a bit too strong--the onions don't cook that much during baking. Great recipe!

Ashley's Chicken Katsu with Tonkatsu Sauce

Reviewed: Nov. 30, 2007

This was really easy, and really good. I did as another reviewer suggested and made nuggets instead of strips. The panko coating is much better than normal chicken breading.

Red Broccoli Salad

Reviewed: Nov. 30, 2007

Yummy, but I made some changes. I didn't use nearly as much bacon as called for (I probably only used 1/2 lb.) and I used more red onion. Instead of grapes and almonds I used craisins and toasted walnuts. It was a huge hit with my Thanksgiving guests.

Asian-Glazed 'Melt-in-Your-Mouth' Pork Tenderloin

Reviewed: Nov. 30, 2007

This was amazing. The brining is totally worth it; your pork will NOT be dry. The leftovers taste great too.

Chinese Chicken Salad

Reviewed: Nov. 30, 2007

This was good, but I never did find the Chinese noodles, even though I looked at a lot of stores. Not sure if I was looking for the right thing. The ones I bought ended up tasting awful. The salad was good though.

Garbanzo Bean Salad

Reviewed: Nov. 30, 2007

I didn't really like this, but ate it anyway because it was good for me. :) If you must eat garbanzos, this is a bearable way to do it.

Thai Cashew Chicken

Reviewed: Sep. 7, 2007

This was delicious, and not too salty at all. I made a bunch of changes, however. First, I didn't marinate the chicken for 2 hours because I forgot. :) It only ended up marinating for about 10 minutes. Second, I omitted the peanut butter entirely to cut back on the sugar/fat content. Third, I used double the amount of cashews (UNSALTED) and toasted them under the broiler first. Then I threw them in with the chicken mixture and let them cook in the sauce for a few minutes. Fourth, I mixed a little cornstarch with water and added that to the mixture to thicken it. Fifth, I used about a tsp. of chili oil instead of hot pepper sauce. Finally, I served it over basmati rice instead of jasmine. I used regular soy sauce (not the low sodium kind) and had no problem with the salt content. Hubby loved it!

B.L.T. Salad with Basil Mayo Dressing

Reviewed: Sep. 6, 2007

Not bad, but needs tweaking. First of all, use the full amount of bacon drippings or else decrease the vinegar. Otherwise the dressing is too sour. Also, I thought it needed some additional things in it, so I added sugar snap peas, walnuts and avocado. It would also have benefited from some cucumbers or something. Very good idea though, and a great main-course salad!

Caramel Macchiato Cheesecake

Reviewed: Sep. 5, 2007

This was really yummy. I left out the coffee and instead put about 3 T. of the caramel topping into the cake batter. Also, once the batter was in the crust, but before it was baked, I drizzled some caramel topping over the top and swirled it around with a knife. It looked beautiful once it was baked. It won second place in a baking contest. :)

Fresh Tomato Salad

Reviewed: Sep. 5, 2007

This was SO good. I made it as a side dish for a dinner party and one of my guests had three or four helpings. It was not popular with the hubby, who doesn't like tomatoes, but I expected that. If you like tomatoes, it's a winner! :)

Roast Sticky Chicken-Rotisserie Style

Reviewed: Mar. 1, 2007

This is so good, and you can't possibly mess it up. The meat falls right off the bones. Great for company because it looks impressive.

Slow Cooker Chicken Taco Soup

Reviewed: Mar. 1, 2007

I love this soup. I would eat it almost every day if my husband wouldn't get tired of it. :) Use a pale ale if you don't want to be able to taste the beer.

Easy and Elegant Pork Tenderloin

Reviewed: Feb. 7, 2007

This was great. I accidentally overbaked it, but the pork was still moist and tender. Looks fancy enough for company, but is really quick and easy to prepare.
