Pretzel Turtles

Reviewed: Feb. 19, 2009

My mother in law made these once - without the extra chocolate drizzle on the top. She used Rolo candies and they were WONDERFUL. She does weight watchers and said they were only one point each! So they are a nice snack, assuming that you don't eat 10 at a time! Which is very well something you may want to do.

Warm Goat Cheese Sandwiches

Reviewed: Jan. 3, 2009

My husband LOVES these. He still makes them as a snack often. He likes to experiment with stuff to put in them. Most of the time, he leave it just the way it is.

Pasta Carcione

Reviewed: Jan. 3, 2009

Love this recipe. My favorite pasta. Of course this needs to be adjusted for your tastes with the goat cheese, and I always add chicken.

Oven-Fried Potatoes

Reviewed: Jan. 3, 2009

I love these potatoes. I don't follow the recipe too closely. I normally make extra coating - making sure they are completely coated - and then coated again. I also use only a little bit of oil. The great thing is, you can adjust as you need for your tastes.

Bruschetta II

Reviewed: Sep. 5, 2008

Awesome, awesome, awesome! I was taking this to a party so I couldn't stack it up like it suggested. Instead I mixed the pesto together with the tomatoes and cheese and served it with the toasted baguette pieces. It was FANTASTIC! It think my husband and I ate the entire bowl ourselves!

Asparagus and Smoked Salmon Salad

Reviewed: Sep. 5, 2008

Great salad! It wasn't as good as it could have been because I didn't cook the salmon completely (but that was my fault - not deducting for my stupidity). The only qualm I had with this recipe was the salt content in the dressing. Made it a bit to salty - maybe next time just a pinch, and it needs some kind of cheese. We used crumbled feta, it worked fantastic.

Grandmas Chicken Chardon

Reviewed: Aug. 8, 2008

Holy moly this was great! I did it a little different. Sliced some red potatoes and layered them on top of the mushrooms, poured the butter mixture on top of those (used half the amount of butter). Coated the chicken in the mixture and placed on top, then sprinkled remaining coating mixture on the entire thing. Covered up with foil half way through (didnt want it to dry out - and the potatoes needed a little help cooking). Anyway, it turned out FANTASTIC! I will definately make this many more times.

Pesto Chicken Florentine

Reviewed: Feb. 21, 2008

Wow.. 2 of my favorite things. I never thought to put them together. I omitted the spinach because I didn't have any at the time and I used jar alfredo sauce (my favorite kind). It was fantastic! We had a couple of friends over and they inhaled it too! Defintely a keeper.

Simple Ranchy Breaded Fish Fillets

Reviewed: Jan. 18, 2008

Yum... I really liked the flavor of this fish... I made a couple of little changes. 1. I used Cod instead of tilapia; 2. I didnt use the whole packet of ranch - I reserved a little bit and sprinkled it over some sauted asparagus. It went great with the fish!

Classy Chicken

Reviewed: Jan. 2, 2008

I will definatly make this again. It had nice flavors and was fairly easy once I figured it out. The only problem was, something was missing! It didnt have a very distinct flavor - not sure what it was, but I will definatly experiment with it for next time!

Michelle's Blonde Chicken Chili

Reviewed: Jan. 2, 2008

Okay, so I really modified this recipe - but the core flavor is what I give a 5 stars. I dont like most beans - so what I did was substitute the beans with just ONE can of rinsed black beans and added 2 cans of FF chicken broth. This produced quite a bit of liquid so I thickened it a touch with some flour. But the way the flavors mixed together were fantastic! I really enjoyed this recipe and will definately make again.

Maria's Rice

Reviewed: Dec. 12, 2007

It wasnt as fantastic as everyone said. I found much better ways to make it. It was way to strong. I like to actually taste my rice! Sorry!

Herbed Cream Cheese With Scallions and Tuna

Reviewed: Dec. 12, 2007

Not really impressed. It was good, but one can of tuna and 8 ounces of cream cheese? I used half that, and it was still a bit to much.

Perfect Baked Potato

Reviewed: Nov. 17, 2007

These were the fluffiest potatoes I have ever eaten! It is amazing if you just let them cook slower! I found this recipe sometime around August, and have only made my baked potatoes this way since!

Crab and Swiss Quiche

Reviewed: Nov. 13, 2007

This was good! Took forever to set up though, I had to cook it for like an hour. Definately something different. It was good, but lacking that punch I would really like it to have.

Lobster de Jonghe

Reviewed: Nov. 8, 2007

Yum... This was great! I used imitation lobster meat that I put in a food processor for a second or two to dice up but it was FANTASTIC either way! We will definately make this again, it was definatly something different for dinner. But for those of you thinking about cutting back on the butter, really dont! I used a reduced fat Country Crock to help curb the calories, but the butter really makes the dish!

Pickle Rolls

Reviewed: Nov. 8, 2007

Yum. My husband loved this. It was a very unique lunch. The only thing I changed was I used fat free sour cream and added a little bit of package ranch mix to punch up the flavor. This will be a normal for lunch rotation!

Crab Crusted Grouper

Reviewed: Oct. 25, 2007

Great flavors! Unfortunately, I couldnt find Grouper so I used some fresh Mahi Mahi that I had in the fridge. Turned out GREAT. My husband ate his and half of mine! Will definately make again!
