Old-Fashioned Beef Stew

Reviewed: Jun. 19, 2013

Delicious beef stew! I added celery into the vegetable mix and omitted the cornstarch step. The meat was tender and flavorful. Served on a bed of white rice, it was a hit with my family.

Great cake. Made it a couple days before I needed it and had to leave it on the bench but it was still very moist when we ate it.

It's hard to decide how many stars to give a recipe after you've tweaked it. But since I really didn't make any drastic changes, I'll give it 5 stars. I used half white and half brown sugar and also used half white and half wheat flour. I would have cut the oil down if I had applesauce but I'm happy to say that the bread was not greasy. I added chopped walnuts on top of one of the pans before baking. I was able to make 3 large loaves, only filling the pans up about halfway. I took a couple loaves to work and got some weird faces when I told my coworkers it was blueberry zucchini bread but as soon as they took a bite, their faces lit up. This was even a hit with a picky eater!

Cream Cheese Pound Cake III

Reviewed: Jun. 18, 2013

This pound cake is very good as written, but I found it a bit too sweet for my taste. I will make this pound cake again making some of the adjustments suggested by many of the reviewers, which included reducing the amount of sugar among other suggestions.

Mushroom Artichoke Sandwich

Reviewed: Jun. 18, 2013

Hubby helped his pregnant wife out tonight and made me this for dinner. He threw in some leftover orange bell pepper and used rosemary sourdough bread. The filling is just awesome. I loved these sandwiches, they are very flavorful and we didn't miss all of the gooey cheese one bit! The parmesan was just perfect. I would highly recommend this recipe as is, or to use up any leftover veggies like we did. Thank you!

Best Ever Pie Crust

Reviewed: Jun. 18, 2013

Very good crust for a shortening based crust. Not sure how it could go so wrong for other people who have tried it. I had to add a tad more water for it to come together. My pie recipe called for 10 minutes at 425 and 40-50 minutes at 375. Was very flaky and deeee-llish!

Country Chicken

Reviewed: Jun. 18, 2013

So, I didn't actually make this recipe. But I saw the potential and thought I'd share with ya'll about my changes. I chopped some small bell peppers, as well as some onion and mushroom. Sour cream is way too fattening so I decided to use greek yogurt, non fat and it adds a lovely tang. also, way too much butter! I used 2 tbspns. I reduced the water drastically and, since I made a smaller amount of chicken, only one can of broth. The chicken I seasoned with parsley, basil, salt, and pepper. I added cornstarch for thicker gravy and topped it with chopped green onions. It was delicious! Spicy and tangy, perfect over sticky rice. I hope my healthier alternative helps someone. :)
