Eileen's Spicy Gingerbread Men

Reviewed: Jan. 15, 2010

Added and extra 1/2 tsp cinnamon, 1/2 tsp ginger and 1/2 tsp nutmeg and these turned out perfect. Be sure to chill for a couple hours. Used powdered sugar rather then flour to keep the dough from sticking to the rolling pin. These cookies were delicious.

Easy Broccoli Quiche

Reviewed: Dec. 31, 2007

Made this for a Christmas brunch. I really liked the flavor this recipe called for by cooking the fresh broccoli in the garlic & onion. (I used onion powder - tasted just as good as fresh onion). As other reviewers suggested I used a cheese blend rather than just mozzarella. Will make this again. I'll try adding some sausage and/or mushrooms.

Hawaiian Chicken Salad

Reviewed: Nov. 24, 2007

I made this Hawaiian Chicken Salad for a bridal shower (bride was getting married in Hawaii). I made it the night before so the flavors blended well together. Everyone commented on how good it was. Will definitely make it again.

Light Oat Bread

Reviewed: Nov. 24, 2007

This recipe turned out perfect. I will definitely make it again. I used butter rather than margarine. Delicious and good texture. I will play around with this recipe some more so I can add more rolled oats.

This recipe rocks! I use it with "Ali's Greek Tortellini Salad" which is also on allrecipes.com. My mom and sister have asked for this recipe.

Have made this twice now using the Absolutely Fabulous Greek/House Dressing that is also on allrecipes.com. It was a hit both times. It is very quick to make which is great for busy moms!

Tasty Green Bean Casserole

Reviewed: Nov. 24, 2007

I will never make the old traditional green bean casserole again. This dish smells so good as you are making it. I doubled the recipe for Thanksgiving. My mother-in-law who generally does not like green bean casserole said that it was "very good" and asked for the recipe. I used vermouth - would probably use a tad bit less next time as it was a good but strong taste. I also used onion salt in place of the onions that were to be sauted with the pepper since my family doesn't really care for onion pieces.

White Cake Frosting I

Reviewed: Oct. 27, 2007

I was making this at 8:30pm at night and was too tired to run to the store for shortening. I used all I had on hand which was I can't believe its not butter. That worked OK. The frosting was really sweet!! What I really liked was how fluffy it was.

Braided Easter Egg Bread

Reviewed: Apr. 28, 2007

I made two of these for Easter brunch. Everyone commented on how beautiful it was and how delicious it was. It is a bit dry but add some butter to your slice and it is great. Perfect amount of sweetness. I added an extra 1/2 cup of flour when I made it as others had suggested and that helped a lot. Will definitely make this again next year.

Elegant Wild Rice Soup

Reviewed: Jan. 3, 2007

I didn't add as much flour as other reviewers suggested and added a little extra ham and carrots and skipped the almonds all together since I didn't have any on hand. This was fantastic!!!! I served it for 10 guests and everyone thought it was great.
