Buffalo Chicken Soup

Reviewed: Feb. 5, 2012

I loved this. We made it gluten free by skipping the roux and adding some cornstarch to the dissolved milk, which I used instead of cream. I cooked the onions, celery and a couple cloves of garlic in olive oil. I used chicken broth because I had it on hand. I used a combo of NY Style Extra sharp cheddar and a four cheese mexican blend. Both shredded. Like others have said, if you like chicken wings you'll love this. Yummy! Thanks for sharing!

Easy Cheese Ball II

Reviewed: Jan. 21, 2012

Great basic cheese ball that can be added to. I added cooked crumbled bacon, cheddar cheese, green onions and rolled mine in nuts (which, I had finely chopped in the food processor). We thought it was great. Very easy and yummy!

Fried Pickles

Reviewed: Jan. 14, 2012

These were so good. We are a gluten free family so we used our normal gluten free flour blend in place of the AP Flour and it worked wonderfully. Crispy yummy fried pickles. Thanks so much for sharing! Update- I just realized that I didn't even notice last time that there was more cornmeal than flour so I used 3/4 c flour and 3/4 cornmeal, and you won't be disappointed. Whatever amount you use, just use equal parts flour and cornmeal.

Chocolate Cheesecake

I made this for Thanksgiving and within 5 minutes of serving it was gone. My family was raving about this one. I used Ghirardelli chocolate and 1/3 fat cream cheese. IT was yummy!

Margaret's Southern Chocolate Pie

Reviewed: Oct. 12, 2011

I really liked this. The filling was a little sweet IMO, but all in all a great recipe and easy, too. I thought it "finally" set once it hit the fridge overnight, and was even thicker on day two (small household), but I didn't think it was thick enough after being made and cooled on a wire rack. It's a plan ahead deal. I have always LOVED chocolate pie and this was my first attempt at making it. I would use this recipe again and would also still continue to try others. Thanks so much for sharing!

Apple Crisp II

Reviewed: Jul. 18, 2011

Scrumptious! I chopped the apples instead of slicing. We wanted them chunky, but otherwise followed the recipe exactly. Absolutely yummy. Will definitely make it again. Thanks for sharing!

Smoky Mountain Chipotle Chicken

Reviewed: Jul. 14, 2011

This was good. I didn't have some of the ingredients for the BBQ sauce, so I decide to still give it a try using a bottled sauce. I used Sweet Baby Ray's sauce and made the remainder of the recipe as stated. We cooked it over charcoal, which is preferred in this household, even though we have a grill that will do both charcoal and gas. Next, time I will try the homemade sauce, as I typically love homemade BBQ sauce. Even with bottle sauce it was very good! Thanks for sharing!

Jalapeno Corn Bread

Reviewed: Jul. 12, 2011

This was yummy! Not too hot either, but a good kick and change from traditional cornbread. I did cheat and used Jiffy, added the freshly diced jalapenos, and then followed the rest of Jiffy's recipe. I added 1 cup of Monterey Jack cheese and cooked in a cast iron skillet separated for cornbread triangles. Next time, will make homemade CB, but it was still so good. Thanks so much for sharing!

Quick and Easy Alfredo Sauce

Reviewed: Jul. 3, 2011

We really enjoyed this recipe. It wasn't bland at all, like alfredo sauce can sometimes be. I used a clove (or two) of fresh garlic instead of the powder. I used 2% milk because it's all we buy so I did end up having to dissolve a little cornstarch (about a tbsp) in a little milk (just enough to dissolve the cornstarch) and added it. It thickened right up. I also used low fat cream cheese and 6 cheese italian blend. It was yummy! I served grilled chicken over it and added some sweet cherry tomatoes (halved) and summer squash, both of which I had sauted in EVOO until tender. Excellent meal!

Meatball Nirvana

Reviewed: May 7, 2011

Yummy! When I saw this was LTH, I knew it was a winner. My husband is still talking about these, days (almost a week) later. Which, I will add is rare for him. The review to use the ricotta instead of milk and to add the sausage, was spot on. We were looking for spaghetti and meatballs and OMG! did this deliver. Awesome, 5+++ stars. We can't wait to have them again.... very soon!!! Thanks, LTH, you rock!!!

Supreme Strawberry Topping

Reviewed: Apr. 24, 2011

We really liked this sauce. It wasn't too sweet, which a lot of times you find with syrupy sauces. I loved the fact that some of the strawberries were left intact. I did cut all of mine in half because they were all so large. I served this with Mini Cheesecakes, but it would be excellent on pancakes, ice cream, etc. Thanks so much for sharing!

Spinach Cheese Manicotti

Reviewed: Apr. 18, 2011

This was very good and super easy. Using the ziploc bag with the cut corner makes this very easy to pipe into the manicotti shells and filling the uncooked was a breeze. After reading several reviews I opted to add the water, as the water does cook out over the 45 mins cooking time. I used fresh spinach which I cooked down adding the onions and fresh garlic instead of powder to the spinach as it was cooking; which gave the cheese blend flavor. Great easy dish! Thank you for sharing!

Perfect Sesame Chicken

Reviewed: Feb. 4, 2011

This is such a good recipe. We LOVED it. As we were eating it my husband said "this is a good recipe". We did cut the sugar down, just because we are not sugar heavy. We used half. VERY GOOD, recipe!
