Light COOL 'N EASY Pie

Reviewed: Dec. 30, 2007

This is so yummy!! Use sugar free jello and light or fat free cool whip so it's not so bad. Very good. Everyone loved. Will be making again soon.

I really love this dish. I make it without the kidney beans and then sprinkle garlic powder and onion salt over the top. YUMMY!!!! My kids like it because they can pick out what they don't like (one likes green beans the other likes the garbonzo beans). I like it because it's very easy. Usually serve with a bowl of fruit and garlic bread.

Fresh Cherry Crisp

Reviewed: Jul. 14, 2007

This was my first attempt of baking with fresh cherries, and it was wonderful! I cut the recipe in half since there were only 2 adult and 2 children eating it. I used 2 1/2 c. cherries and added a tsp. of cinnamon to the topping. Very good! I think next time I will add even more cherries. This recipe is a keeper. Thank you!!

Whole Wheat Banana Nut Bread

Reviewed: Jul. 14, 2007

This was very good. I made it as listed, but I added about 3/4 c mini chocolate chips and an extra 1/c cup bananas. Came out very very moist. So moist that it falls apart when I cut it. I had to bake it for about 70 minutes and it came out nice and brown. (baked it in a glass dish at 325). Kids love it. Will be making it again. I think next time I will make it with applesauce to make it even more healthier.

Lisa's Chocolate Chocolate Chip Cake

Reviewed: Jul. 9, 2007

Excellent!! I made this for myself for my birthday, so I made it exactly has written. When cooled my son poured some melted frosting over the top and then I dusted with powdered sugar. Very very good. My husband said that it is the best chocolate cake he ever had. This probably will be a birthday staple from now on. The one thing I will do differently next time is put some more mini chocolate chips on the frosting before it cools. Very very good cake. Thanks for the reciep.

Hawaiian Baked Chicken

Reviewed: Jul. 2, 2007

This was just ok. Probably won't make again. Followed the recipe exactly (usually do the first time around) and it was very soupy. Maybe if I do make t again, I will use breasts and add some cornstarch to help thicken it up. Kids liked the chicken alright, didn't care for the sauce over rice.

Sweet and Sour Chicken III

Reviewed: Jun. 13, 2007

I love love love this recipe. One of my favorites. I use one large can of pinapple (20 oz) and double the sauce. I also use low-sodium soy sauce so it doesn't get to be too salty. Have made this many times and will make many many more.

Cranberry Phyllo Triangles

Reviewed: Jun. 13, 2007

I made the choc/pecan kind. Very easy to make. I used untoasted pecan cookie pieces. At first taste I wasn't too impressed. But after a couple days they were so yummy I couldn't stop eating them. My 4 year old really liked them too. I will be making them again.

Enchilada Stuffed Shells

Reviewed: Jun. 5, 2007

Very yummy! Used lean ground beef instead of turkey (my husband doesn't like turkey). Topped with sour cream and served with mexican rice, very delicious. My husband and I both agreed that it would be even better topped with some pico de gallo and maybe a little shredded lettuce. Kids loved. Will be making it again.

Caramel Pudding Cake

Reviewed: Jun. 5, 2007

This was just so-so. Way too sweet. The sugar/water mixture didn't get soaked up at all in the cake so it ended up really liquidy. Cake had pretty good flavor. Probably would add nuts and cinnamon next time.

Baked Lemon Chicken

Reviewed: Jun. 5, 2007

This was very good. Followed the directions except used thin cut chicken breasts. Didn't come out crunchy, but it was still very tasty. Whole family-4 year old and 2 year old included- loved it. Next time I think I'd make more of the lemon/butter mixture. It turn out as lemony as I would have liked. Still was very good. Will be making it again.

Garlic Parmesan Orzo

Reviewed: Jun. 5, 2007

This was sooo good!! I cut the recipe in half and used a lot of garlic (about 2 tsp. of the jared minced kind). It tasted like something you'd get at Olive Garden. A creamy, cheesy, and very garlicky sauce. Will make many many times.

Grain and Nut Whole Wheat Pancakes

Reviewed: May 3, 2007

5 stars for a recipe almost exactly like this one. I use 3/4 cup ground oatmeal, 3/4 c. ww flour, and 1/4 c. sugar. Only use the buttermilk and not the plain milk. At the end add 3 Tbsp. each of finely ground walnuts and almonds. Make them small. Cook for 2 minutes on each side. Yummy! The best pancake I've ever had. I'll make a batch just for me and have leftovers from the freezer for days. Just as good reheated.

Savory Biscuit Bites

Reviewed: May 2, 2007

My entire family really enjoys these bites. I do find that the original amounts are not quite enough to use up all the biscuits. I usually double the recipe to use one can of biscuits. They really absorb the butter-so quickly dip them, don't let let them rest for long. We will be making these a lot for special meals. With all that butter, it's not for everyday.

Lasagna Spirals

Reviewed: Apr. 30, 2007

I thought this recipe was only so-so. Made it as printed except used 2 tsp italian seasoning (hubby not crazy about basil). Thought the kids would like it because they both love broccoli. I was wrong, they didn't like it at all. I do like the idea of the spirals and I think I will try it again with just the cheese mixture and top with spaghetti/meat sauce, and put extra mozz cheese on top. Or else try a manicotti mixture to roll up in the noodles, would be much easier than stuffing the manicotti noodles.

Reviewed: Jan. 25, 2007

This is one of the best banana bread recipes I've tasted. Bread turns out very moist and delicious. I put in about 1 1/2 cups of bananas. Will be making this many times.

Butterscotch Oatmeal

Reviewed: Nov. 26, 2006

This is the best oatmeal I have ever made. Used the quick cooking oats, skim milk and egg substitute and it was delicious. My husband and two children ask for it often.

Blueberry Crisp I

Reviewed: Jul. 26, 2006

This was outstanding. Served it for a family desert and everyone - 3yr old and 20 month old LOVED it. I used 2 cups fresh blueberries and 1 cup thawed-frozen raspberries. Used butter instead of the margarine. Cut the water to 3/4 cup and used about 1/2 sugar each time. Also used cinnamon instead of the nutmeg. My husband dished out the serving and he flipped it over so the crust was on the bottom and the berry filling was on the top. Topped it with some cool whip and it was awesome! Will use this recipe many many times.
