Colleen's Slow Cooker Jambalaya

Reviewed: Feb. 5, 2010

I changed a few things. 1. I used Italian turkey sausage and browned the slices before adding them to the pot. 2. I bought raw shrimp because I don't trust "cooked" shrimp at the market. I boiled water, with salt, jerk, and bay leaf and cooked the shrimp in the boiled water for 5 minutes. 3. I browned the chicken cubes because I couldn't stand the thought of putting raw chicken in my pot - call me weirdo. I did like one of the readers said - strained the diced tomatoes - used some of the juice but not the whole thing. I added more cayenne and jerk. DEEELISH!!!

Oatmeal Peanut Butter Cookies

Reviewed: Dec. 21, 2008

Wowy Wow WOW! These are GREAT! They taste great and are highly fragrant. If, like me, you LOVE LOVE LOVE the smell of peanut butter, you'll love making these. Here is my hint: -Keep a VERY close eye on these. They brown VERY easily and you don't want to OVERBAKE them. As soon as they start getting a little color and if the bottoms are already golden, plan on taking them out of the oven. YUMMAYYYY!!!

Frosted Cranberries

Reviewed: Dec. 21, 2008

Awesome. Crowd pleaser. BEAUTIFUL!!! Here are my hints: -If you find it hard to stomach the smell of the egg whites, try substituting the water with orange juice. I did that and my picky guests recognized the difference right away. -Also to make it a little more "festive", I added Allspice, Nutmeg, and Clove (a teeeny tiny bit) just to spice it up a bit. Play around with the quantities to find what suits you best. Amazing recipe. I'm happy I found this!!! b.

Cranberry Applesauce Muffins

Reviewed: Dec. 8, 2008

Luv LUV luv these. Easy, HIGHLY fragrant, not too sweet. That's a complaint from some who have sweet-tooth. Not me, I love these.

Broiled Short Ribs

Reviewed: Apr. 12, 2008

Tried this with apprehension because I'd never made ribs before and was really concerned about disappointing the family who's used to my mom's ribs... Well, after a VERY successful rib dinner, I'm being asked to make these again. Thank you!!!

Rice & Beans (Haitian Style)

Reviewed: Mar. 26, 2006

YUMMY! This surprised my Haitian parents and grandma. I made it to these specs just for fun - made me nervous at first because I'm used to making it a bit differently. It was DELICIOUS, TASTY, VERY EASY... Dad went back for more!
