Cheese and Bacon Potato Rounds

Reviewed: Dec. 28, 2006

I made these for a Christmas party. They were great-no leftovers! I put a small dollop of sour cream on each round before the cheese and bacon (didn't use onions). The only reason I don't rate 5* is the time factor involved in slicing and baking.

Hearty Vegetable Soup

Reviewed: Jan. 11, 2006

I made this for a work potluck with cornbread muffins with the following changes: omitted leak, potato and rice; used frozen corn and peas; substituted black beans and kidney beans for garbanzos. I really liked with flavor the soy sauce and dill gave. I'll make this again.

Apple Pie Bread

Reviewed: Oct. 12, 2005

I made this recipe to use up red delicious apples. It made 4 mini loaves (1 1/3 c size pans) and one half size mini loaf. I cooked for 40 minutes and let cool in pan 15 minutes. I also used 1 cup whole wheat flour in place of 1 c white flour. They turned out really moist and tasty and they're low fat too.

Pasta Salad I

Reviewed: Sep. 22, 2005

I made this with less pasta and used whole wheat spirals and splenda instead of sugar. It took a lot of time to cut, slice and chop all the vegetables, but it was tasty. I made a batch without pasta and only 1/2 the dressing for a work lunch and several people liked it. I like broccoli, cauliflower, raisin, bacon salad just as well and it takes less time but this was nice for a change.

Easy Morning Glory Muffins

Reviewed: Sep. 22, 2005

I made these muffins with some changes. One-half recipe made 10 regular sized muffins (did not fill up the muffin cups). I used paper liners, 1/2 oil and 1/2 unsweetened applesauce, splenda instead of sugar (reduced to 1/2 c for half recipe), 1/2 regular flour and 1/2 whole wheat, 1 1/4 c carrot, 1 c of apple, left the skin on the apple and baked for 20 minutes. I omitted the nuts and coconut and used 2 eggs for half recipe. The muffins stuck to the liners, maybe because I left them in the pan to cool and the-next time I'll put them on a cooling rack immediately. I also used my manual food chopper for the carrots and apple instead of grating-it's much faster. I'll be making these again.

No-Cream Pasta Primavera

Reviewed: Jul. 26, 2005

This recipe was great! I made the following changes: omitted pasta, aluminum foil, Romano cheese, lemon zest and butter; substituted diced Japanese eggplant for the asparagus; used 4 teaspoons of olive oil to roast vegetables instead of 2 tablespoons (which is 6 teaspoons); and a whole green pepper instead of 1/2 a red pepper. I think next time I'll just put the onion and garlic in the mixture and toss in the parsley and basil after roasting. I used a metal 9x13" pan because I mixed the vegetables and seasonings in the pan before and after roasting. I liked this recipe because the cooking time is less than some other baked vegetable recipes. There was a lot of chopping and cutting, but well worth it. Thanks.

Jamie's Cranberry Spinach Salad

Reviewed: Nov. 16, 2004

I could eat the entire bowl. I made it with the following changes: omitted butter and dry toasted almonds in pan; substitued Splenda for sugar; used dried minced onion instead of fresh; white vinegar instead of white wine vinegar (couldn't find in the store) and olive oil instead of vegetable oil. Good for low-carb diets, if they pick out the berries!

Mini Cheesecakes I

Reviewed: Feb. 19, 2002

Great recipe. I made these for work and everyone really enjoyed the vanilla wafer crust. I tried using chocolate chips with good results. The only suggestions I would make is to not fill the cups too full and using cherry pie filling may be too messy. Definitely a keeper!

Shrimp Etouffee I

Reviewed: Jan. 23, 2002

This did not turn out well at all. I was hoping for an authentic New Orleans taste. I think my problem was that I cooked the roux too long-3 mintues would have been better. I may try this again.

Old-Fashioned Banana Pudding

Reviewed: Jan. 23, 2002

This was great! It was my first time making "real" pudding. No one could tell it was a healthy version. I will make this again.

Oat Applesauce Muffins

Reviewed: Jan. 23, 2002

These tasted great, but the two hour oatmeal soak took a while. I used quick oats and didn't soak them as long, used egg substitute, and added apple pie spice. My husband even liked them-I didn't tell him they were healthy! I will definitely make them again.

Thick Cut-Outs

Reviewed: Dec. 20, 2001

This is an awesome recipe!!!! The dough was so much easier to work with than other recipes I've tried (after chilling). The cookies kept their shape when baking. The description was exactly on target: big, soft sugar cookies. Just like the bakery ones.

Michelle's Soft Sugar Cookies

Reviewed: Dec. 19, 2001

Even after refrigerating the dough, it was still too soft to work with, so I added more flour when rolling them out. Mine turned out really flat and almost too soft.

Soft Whole Wheat Sugar Cookies

Reviewed: Dec. 19, 2001

This is an average sugar cookie recipe spiced up a little bit. I refrigerated the dough and rolled it out for cut out cookies and it worked fine.

Urban Legend Cookies II

Reviewed: Dec. 17, 2001

I made a half recipe to take to a cookie exchange-everyone loved them. I added these to my permanent cookie recipe collection. The only suggestion I would make is to split the oatmeal before blending because it choked up my blender.

Smoked Salmon Spread

Reviewed: Nov. 26, 2001

I had a little trouble chopping the salmon but it was worth the effort. I modified the recipe a little bit by using half the salmon called for and about 3-4 times as much hot sauce (Tabasco sauce) and served it with triscuits. Definitely a keeper.
