Italian Green Peas

Date: 2015/04/03

Chicken Tater Tot Hotdish

Date: 2015/02/24
"This hotdish was good but I think we like regular tater tot hotdish made with ground beef better. But if you are a big chicken fan this is a good recipe."

Mardi Gras King Cupcakes

Date: 2015/02/09
"Fun cupcakes to serve during Mardi Gras. We liked the different flavors that the gelatin gave the cupcakes. It seemed like one flavor came through more than another for everyone."

Simple Pan Gravy

Date: 2014/12/11
"I used this recipe this Thanksgiving to make our gravy. I am not a great gravy maker so I needed help. It turned out great. I have never used potato water to make gravy before. I think that helped with the flavor. I will definitely try this again next time I make gravy."

Crock Pot Pepsi Beef Roast

Date: 2014/10/27
"The meat was moist and had good flavor but the gravy had just a slight sweetness to it that I was not real fond of. I have run into this with other recipes where soda is used."

Banana Quick Bread

Date: 2014/09/11
"I am always trying new banana bread recipes because I always seem to have ripe bananas in the freezer to use up. This recipe was good but nothing much different from the rest."

Tater Tot Casserole with Topping

Date: 2014/08/26
"This recipe was good but I prefer the traditional tater tot hot dish with the tater tots on top. I guess I like them a little crispy."

Chewy Snack Squares

Date: 2014/06/06
"These bars turned out just like the description. They were chewy but crispy too. They were really easy to make and the kids ate them up in no time. Cooking the coating takes a little time but be patient because it is worth it."

Quick Baked Beans

Date: 2014/05/05
"These really are simple to make and had great flavor. I baked them a little longer to thicken the sauce a little but otherwise we loved them."

Sesame Almond Cole Slaw

Date: 2014/01/31
"Good salad but I think I would have liked it better with sunflower seeds added rather than sesame seeds."

Smoky Roasted Cauliflower

Date: 2013/12/16
"The smoked paprika gave this roasted cauliflower a little more depth of flavor. We loved it and it was easy to prepare."

Potato Stuffed Hot Dogs

Date: 2013/10/21
"I made these for a quick lunch for the kids this weekend and they loved them. They usually don't want their hot dogs on a bun so this was a good way to get them to eat something besides just a hot dog. I even liked them."

Seven Layer Bean Dip

Date: 2013/09/02
"We had a fantasy football party this weekend and I made this for it. I thought it was ok but not my favorite. I thought it seemed like it needed something more but I had a lot of people tell me they really liked it and it was all gone at the end of the night so I guess it must have been ok."

Baked Lamb Ribs

Date: 2013/08/07
"Our neighbors raise sheep so when they butcher one they are always giving us something to try. They gave us ribs the last time so I fixed them last night using this recipe. I am not much for lamb but these weren't bad."

Peanut Butter and Marshmallow Bars

Date: 2013/08/02
"These were definitely yummy! The sweetened condensed milk made them so creamy and smooth. We all loved them and they are so simple to make. It is also nice to not have to start the oven when the weather is so hot."

Tomato and Corn Salsa

Date: 2013/07/25
"We had friends over for cocktails out on our patio and I had made this salsa just for something to munch on. I used fresh tomatoes from our garden and added 1 cup of corn because we like a little extra corn in it. It was perfect with our cocktails."

Yogurt Mint Sauce

Date: 2013/06/27
"This mint sauce it ideal to serve with lamb but also goes great with chicken, pork, and beef. It is easy to make and keeps well."

Twice Baked Potato & Bacon Casserole

Date: 2013/06/20
"This is an excellent potato casserole. It has a rich cheesy flavor and the bacon makes it even better. You could use less bacon than called for but we loved it with a lot of bacon. This would make a great side for any meal."

Honey Cinnamon Muffins

Date: 2013/05/16
"I served these with a chicken salad and they were perfect. They were mildly sweet but not so much that they seemed more like a dessert muffin."

Taco Salad for One

Date: 2013/04/23
"Good taco salad. I added all the extras so it had a lot of mingled flavors. I added the tortilla chips around the edges so I didn't have to buy expensive the taco shell bowls. It worked well."

Creamy Cauliflower Broccoli Salad

Date: 2013/04/08
"This salad was very good. I added the dried cranberries and they really added flavor and nice texture to the salad. We loved the bacon in the salad also. I have this type of salad before but it has never had that much bacon in it."

Meatball Monday Meatballs

Date: 2013/03/19
"These were good. I think they would be better with either plain bread crumbs, or leave out the Italian seasoning. Perfect with a jar of spaghetti sauce."

Round Steak and Gravy

Date: 2013/03/13
"When we have our beef processed we end up with a lot of tenderized round steak so I am always looking for good ways to prepare it. I tried this recipe a couple of nights ago and it was delicious. This is an excellent way to prepare round steak and it makes really tasty gravy to go with it. We will be making this recipe a lot!"

Crispy Peanut Butter Cookies

Date: 2013/03/05
"These are definitely crispy. I prefer them a little more soft, so I will try another recipe. They did have good flavor though."

Nana's Shredded Beef

Date: 2013/03/01
"This is really great for sandwiches. The pickle flavor doesn't overwhelm like you may think, just the perfect amount in the background. I made this for my kids family birthday party and kids and adults loved it."

Pea Dish

Date: 2013/02/22
"We like peas at our house but have never had them fixed like this. We all really like this pea recipe but my kids picked the topping off and just ate the peas. My husband and I liked the crunchiness that the topping added."

Savory Roasted Chicken

Date: 2013/02/18
"This roasted chicken was delicious. I fixed it for Sunday dinner and everyone loved it. It was moist and very flavorful."

Moist Chocolate Cake with Fudge Frosting

Date: 2013/02/11
"This was a yummy homemade chocolate cake. It was like eating a moist, fluffy fudge brownie. Many times when I make a cake from scratch it turns out dry and has a coarse texture but not this one. If you like chocolate cake you just have to try this recipe."

Blueberry Cheesecake Dessert

Date: 2013/01/31
"I love blueberries and cheesecake. This was an excellent recipe! It didn't take long for us to eat this up."
