Banana Crumb Muffins

Reviewed: Jun. 27, 2003

Was expecting a heavier banana bread type, was surprised they were light, yet a little crumbly becuz of the streusel. Good flavor, easy to make, but next time I'd make my favorite banana bread and put streusel in center or on top.

Apple Enchiladas

Reviewed: Jun. 27, 2003

Wonderful Recipe....easily 5 stars!! Whole family loved it more than most apple pie. Hubby said tortillas were better than pie crust, which he has never been fond. I did spread tortillas with 8oz softened cream cheese and added 1 tsp vanilla to the sauce....divine!! It's in our permanent collection! Thanks Brenda.

Chicken Chimi in the Oven

Reviewed: Apr. 10, 2003

Made this 2 nights ago to bland reviews from my family of 5. I subbed enchilada sauce and salsa combo for salsa/water/spices. I also added cheese to each tortilla after the meat/sauce. Offered sour cream, salsa, chopped tomatoes and shredded lettuce as toppers. Family loves Beef and Beef Chimi's from this site and just prefers Chicken Enchiladas over there. Sorry, won't be making this one again.

Peanut Butter Cornflake Crunch Bars

This is my husband's favorite quick treat that my 14yo daughter enjoys making. We crust cornflakes and it measures around 8 cups and drop them in generous tablespoons. On the run, hubby considers them a good breakfast!

Cheesy Chicken Pot Pie

Reviewed: Mar. 27, 2003

Tried this last night, as written, with regards to my veggie combo-I used GG combo of corn, baby corn, broccoli and carrots, then added 4oz sliced mushrooms...I also added some spices, as I thought it was very bland. Too Salty, even hubby noted that and he's a salt fiend....must've been the combo of chicken broth, mushrooms and cheese. Will try again, but will use other reviewer tips---mainly use low salt cream of something soup or chicken gravy or even canned low salt chicken broth in place of the broth and sauteed fresh, sliced mushrooms. It'll work, I'm sure. Kids did love the cheese!

Cathy's Banana Bread

Reviewed: Mar. 26, 2003

Just like Cathy promised, moist and delicious. I used very over-ripe bananas, cut sugar to 1 cup. Used only 1 9x5 loaf pan. Bread was great, easily replaces the Betty Crocker standard I've used for 20 years.

Sweet Dinner Rolls

Reviewed: Mar. 26, 2003

A+ Recipe. Would give this more than 5 stars if possible. Rolls used to be flat (tho flavorful) hockey pucks and became a family joke. This recipe and the Bread Machine Rolls at this site changed all that for me. These were doughy and yeasty and buttery and wonderful. Rolled into 12 balls, placed in 13x9 pan to rest for 1 hour, then baked for 12 minutes. They rose up beautifully and this family of 5 ate 2 each and gave them 2 thumbs up. Will become a weekly regular for us. Thanks Donna.

Cinnamon Chip Applesauce Coffeecake

Reviewed: Mar. 26, 2003

Loved this Coffeecake! Made it this weekend, used cinnamon applesauce-about 1 cup. Didn't have pecans or walnuts, so I added an extra 1/2 cup mini cinnamon chips-which are available at a local Amish bulk food store. Will make again, whole family enjoyed several pieces each and guys at hubby's work gobbled up the remaining 4 pieces the next day for coffee break.

Beef or Chicken Marinade

Reviewed: Mar. 26, 2003

GREAT! Followed recipe to a tee...marinated both t-bone steaks and boneless chix breasts to grill out over the weekend. Beef could've marinated longer, but the chicken was wonderful and flavorful. Will use regularly, have ingredients on hand always.

Broccoli Quiche with Mashed Potato Crust

Reviewed: Mar. 26, 2003

Okay, nothing special...I followed a few previous reviewers ideas and added 1-1/2 cups ham to broccoli mix and sauteed onions and sprinkled top with garlic powder. Still missing something. Loved the idea, we enjoy all kinds of quiche, but not this one. Sorry, I won't make it again.

Cheese Cake Cups

Reviewed: Mar. 21, 2003

A+ Recipe!! Made this early yesterday morning for a winter sports banquet last night. Vanilla Wafers have shunk over the years, so I crushed 2-1/2 cups, added 1/4 cup melted margarine and pressed 1 T into each paper liner. Also as per previous reviewer, I added 1 cup sour cream and 1/4 cup more sugar to the cream cheese mix and got 20 wonderful cups. Topped 1/2 with 1 T blueberry pie filling and the other 1/2 with 1 T cherry pie filling....blue and red, my kids HS school colors. First dessert to disappear!! Thanks for sharing this one Diana. It's been printed and filed for lots of future use.

Gilbert's Potatoes

Reviewed: Mar. 17, 2003

Awesome side dish for the Grill!!! Spring-like temps had us grilling out yesterday and we needed a side dish for brats/burgers, salad and deviled eggs. This was it. Only things I did different--used 1/2 cup margarine and subbed shredded cheese for American slices. Will be using this frequently from now on.....Yummy! Thanks Jen, this is a wonderful, easy keeper.

Hoagie Bake

Reviewed: Mar. 15, 2003

Another Great Recipe! Made this for dinner last night, as is, with a few substitutions--used just ham and red-fat salami, swapped mozzarella for provolone, cut the egg to just 1, and added garlic powder to sprinkle on the top. Wonderful! Can't wait to try it with bread machine pizza dough as others have suggested. We dipped ours in Creamy Italian Dressing, Spag Sauce, and ranch dressing. Just enough for this family of 5. Thanks Cindy it's a definite keeper!!!

Creamy Italian Dressing I

Reviewed: Mar. 15, 2003

A+++++ Made this yesterday afternoon to serve on the side with spaghetti sauce and ranch dressing for Hoagie Bake. This dressing is GREAT, couldn't find bottled brand, had all the ingredients, and used my Betty Crocker hand blender. I did add a couple tablespoons of milk to thin it a little more and cut back sugar to 2 tsp per a previous reviewer. Perfect! Thanks for sharing Cathy, it'll be a regular at our house.

Clone of a Cinnabon

Reviewed: Mar. 14, 2003

At this temp., my rolls rose high and became dark brown on top....which is why I gave them only 4 stars. Am going to try them again at 300-325º, becuz the filling and icing were awesome, so I'm hoping I can get the right oven temp to make them golden brown and not so dark. Any ideas why? Appreciate any help or thoughts. thanks

Banana Split Cheesecake

Reviewed: Mar. 10, 2003

Another hit with my family of 5!! Halved the recipe, cuz only had 1 block of cream cheese. Did like previous reviewer suggested-added 1 tsp vanilla to filling and drizzled freezer strawberry jam over filling before bananas, then topped with fruit and set out chocolate syrup, caramel ice cream topping and chopped peanuts for everyone to finish their piece according to their tastes. YUMMY--brought summer to frozen Midwest!! Can't wait for summer and a whole 13x9 of this!

Bread Machine Rolls

Reviewed: Mar. 8, 2003

These were the BEST, would give them more stars if possible! Made them to go with Beef Barley Stew and family of 5 gorged themselves on these. Only changes-took previous reviewers idea and used 13x9 pan, taked 10 minutes and got 12 nice size rolls. Also, didn't have an egg, so I brushed tops with butter when they came out of the oven. Will be using this regularly...once a week or more. Thanks Kay, this is a winner!

Pecan Sticky Buns

Reviewed: Mar. 5, 2003

YUMMMMMMMMY...Gooey and sticky, just like a pecan buns should be! Scaled ingredients to fit into my bread machine and used dough cycle. Used combo of pecans and walnuts, which is what I had on hand. I spread more than 1 T butter on dough, more like 2-3 T. Used 13x9 pan instead of 2-9" round pans and baked 25 minutes. Dough rose high and house smelled wonderful while they baked. This recipe goes into our permanent rotation to be used frequently.
