Baked Cranberry Acorn Squash

Posted by Tonkcats  

I really liked this! My husband doesn't like sweet side dishes much, but still ate all of his, which I think is a good sign. I used maple syrup instead of brown sugar (and left out the butter). It was so easy! — mayness Nov 15, 2009

Banana Nut Baked Oatmeal

Posted by DrGaellon  

Found this while searching for a way to use up some over-ripe bananas and an excess of oatmeal, while still being healthy enough that I could eat it for breakfast. LOVED the end result, but had to alter some things to make it work for me. 1 tbsp... — mayness Nov 13, 2009

Italian Rice Balls

(1 person found this helpful) Posted by Julesong  

I made these using leftover rice - they didn't hold together as well after adding the egg, probably because all the ingredients were cold - but I let the mixture sit in the fridge for a few hours, made into balls as best I could, then froze for a... — mayness Nov 12, 2009

Any Fruit Fast Fat Free Cobbler

Posted by ladypit  

I'm really impressed by this recipe! It was so quick and easy. The crust gets kind of carmelized and chewy around the edges, it's really tasty. I used apples and cranberries.. I was worried the cranberries wouldn't cook well enough so I cut... — mayness Nov 8, 2009

Mini Hot Dogs 'n' Meatballs

(1 person found this helpful) Posted by bmcnichol  

My husband's uncle apparently makes this a lot, and hubby wanted me to try to find the recipe based on his vague descriptions, haha. Finally found it! It was good, nothing amazing, but I can see how it would be an easy thing to serve at a big... — mayness Oct 22, 2009

Potato Pork Pie

Posted by MarlaM  

I made this with some ham that I needed to use up. I used chicken stock with no salt instead of the canned broth, to make up for the saltiness of the ham. I also used milk instead of cream. I would cut down on the thyme next time for sure. My... — mayness Oct 22, 2009

Creamed Corn Casserole

Posted by BlueHyacinth  

I love this stuff! It's so easy and affordable, too. I've also made it with plain lowfat yogurt instead of the sour cream (I don't always have sour cream on hand) and it turns out just as well. — mayness Oct 22, 2009

Easy Crock Pot Macaroni and Cheese

Posted by * Pamela *  

Based on other reviews I doubled the cheese, a combination of sharp cheddar and a little bit of pepper jack for some spice. It would be incredibly bland with the written amount of cheese. My lack of success is partially my fault because I guess... — mayness Oct 22, 2009

Chinese Green Beans

Posted by BoxO'Wine  

These were excellent, there's nothing I'd change about the recipe! My husband even loved them, and said they "taste just like the ones from Chinese restaurants." — mayness Oct 22, 2009

Butternut Squash Souffle or Kugel

Posted by MSMD310  

I made this with "Buttercup" squash - similar to acorn squash. It's a fairly sweet squash so I used 1/4 cup sugar (brown sugar, actually) and it was plenty. I'm not sure I'd make it again, but it was pretty good. — mayness Oct 22, 2009

All-Purpose Stir-Fry Sauce (Brown Garlic Sauce)

(1 person found this helpful) Posted by Connie K  

This was very quick and easy to make. I froze half of it for later... when thawed, it separated a bit (into a big chunk of gel and some liquid) but after heating it up it was back to normal. (Maybe it would be better to just throw it in the pan... — mayness Oct 22, 2009

Saucy Crock Pot Pork Chops

Posted by bmcnichol  

My mom used to make this recipe all the time when I was little, but in the oven. I suspected this was the same recipe when I saw it, and I knew when I tasted it. I love the sauce over noodles or on broccoli. I baked it in the oven because I... — mayness Oct 22, 2009

Cranberry/Orange Relish

(1 person found this helpful) Posted by Teresa Mackey  

Found this recipe when I rediscovered my "Joy of Cooking" book and had to see if someone had posted it here. JoC says to refrigerate for two days up to two weeks before serving, so I waited 4 days, and it's fantastic. It's really good mixed with... — mayness Oct 22, 2009

Fsd - Oatmeal Cookies

Posted by Big Mike2  

I needed to use up some oatmeal and over-ripe bananas and this was perfect for that. I used (real) brown sugar instead of splenda (I'm not on any particular diet). I did add some unsweetened applesauce, but I wish there was a suggested amount in... — mayness Jul 28, 2009

Italian Vegetable Custard

Posted by yooper  

This was fabulous! We ate it as a main dish, and it was more than two of us could finish. I didn't use olives, but I mixed in some dried onion flakes with the squash. I didn't have tomatoes so I topped with mushrooms - will definitely make it... — mayness Jul 14, 2009

Balsamic Chard

(1 person found this helpful) Posted by GinnyP  

I liked this a lot — my husband thought it was just "ok." Neither of us can remember ever eating chard before, so maybe he just doesn't like it... so I'm giving it a 5 anyway. =] It's very easy and quick! — mayness Jun 18, 2009

Buffalo Chicken Quesadillas

Posted by Marie  

I love anything Buffalo Chicken but I hadn't thought of making quesadillas before! These were great with bleu cheese. I used Frank's pre-mixed "Wing Sauce" instead of the hot pepper sauce and butter, and added some sauteed peppers and onions. I... — mayness Jun 9, 2009

Chili Sauce Substitute

Posted by princess buttercup  

I had never even HEARD of chili sauce until a recipe I found a few days ago, so I'm rating this based on convenience and ease of preparation. I didn't have cloves or allspice, so I used a few dashes of pumpkin pie spice (and less of the cinnamon,... — mayness May 12, 2009

Steak Shapes

Posted by Leta  

This is such a simple recipe, but it came out tasting SO good! The gravy didn't really thicken, or maybe I was too impatient, so I added some cornstarch... I used Copycat Lipton Onion Soup Mix, maybe there's something in the store-bought mix that I was missing.... — mayness Apr 15, 2009
