Bobby Flay Throwdown Red Velvet Cupcakes and Cream Cheese Icing

(1 person found this helpful) Posted by Domesticgirly  

I made these twice to make sure I wasn't doing anything wrong, and I have to say these were not great in our opinion. The best thing about the cupcake is that it is very most, otherwise it is lacking in flavor even after adding a bit more cocoa... — shimmerchk Oct 26, 2009

Posted by KC_Cooker  

Simply awesome! My family ADORED this cake and it was gone in a flash. It was super moist and flavorful with just the right amount of spice and sweetness. The frosting was also excellent, I used 1/3 less fat cream cheese and it was still... — shimmerchk Oct 24, 2009

Roasted Garlic and Sun-Dried Tomato Spread

Posted by Semra22  

Wow!Wow!Wow! This is one of those recipes you wish that you could give a TEN star rating too. I made this spread so that I could utilize some beautiful roasted garlic I had made recently. If it were good enough I was going to serve it to guests... — shimmerchk Sep 11, 2009

Healthy No Bake Cookies

Posted by ShaGun  

I whole-heartedly agree with all the other reviewers that you are a genius in developing a healthy no-bake cookie! I always thought the original recipe was way too sweet and fussy, sometimes too dry, sometimes too chewy, I could never get them... — shimmerchk Jul 31, 2009

Middle Eastern Tuna Salad Pitas

Posted by Brenda.  

I was getting tired of my regular tuna salad and wanted something different, boy did this fit the bill! I never would have thought of putting hummus in my tuna salad to bind it but it was an excellent combination of flavors. I did not add mayo,... — shimmerchk May 4, 2009

Cheat n' Eat Vietnamese Chicken Soup

(1 person found this helpful) Posted by Sue L  

I think anyone who is used to eating authentic vietnamese pho or Thai Guio Tiao would find this lacking in depth of flavor. However, the goal of this dish is quick and tasty and for that, it surely satisfies. I made this recipe "as is" the first... — shimmerchk Mar 28, 2009

Frizzled Cabbage

(2 people found this helpful) Posted by Boxerwing  

Awesome! I love the flavor that the caramelization brings. I make this very very often and even guests who don't normally like cabbage like this dish. I can't help but add a few shots of dry sherry as well! I tried this with napa cabbage as well,... — shimmerchk Jul 9, 2008

Mediterranean Tuna Sandwiches

Posted by Engrossed  

My goodness was this ever yummy. I pretty much love anything "mediterranean" and this tuna salad was no exception. I love all the individual ingredients and have them in my pantry at all times, but have never combined them in quite this same... — shimmerchk Jun 23, 2008

Absolutely the Best New York Cheesecake (By Bird) (Gluten-Free)

(13 people found this helpful) Posted by 2Bleu (Bird&Buddha)  

Wow! Unbelievably creamy and custard-like in texture. This is very different from the more dense recipes that I have tried, but it was perfect in every way. The cheesecake literally melts in your mouth and has a very silky texture in both... — shimmerchk Jun 17, 2008

Kittencal's Extreme Chocolate Brownies

(1 person found this helpful) Posted by KITTENCAL  

This brownie is really something special! Though I used all the sugar called for in this recipe, it was a tad on the sweet side for me, though my family thought they were perfect in flavor and texture. For my taste, I would prefer to use a mix of... — shimmerchk May 31, 2008

Fish Marinade

Outstanding! I used this to marinate Orange Roughy filets that I used for fish tacos and this is definitely the very best fish marinade we have ever had. I used freshly squeezed orange juice and followed the rest of the recipe exactly and it was... — shimmerchk May 23, 2008

Barbecue Ranch Chicken Salad

(1 person found this helpful) Posted by ChipotleChick  

I really loved this! It was very simple to make and the perfect solution for using up leftover grilled chicken. I used frozen corn because I didn't have canned on hand, and I pan roasted it until it was golden for extra flavor. I added some... — shimmerchk May 23, 2008

Pork Tenderloin With Plum Sauce

Posted by SusieQusie  

My family enjoyed this one and I loved how easy it was to make! I ended up using red wine instead of white since that is what I had on hand, and I ended up having to counter the slight bitterness it left with some rice wine vinegar, brown sugar... — shimmerchk May 11, 2008

Salmon Burgers

Posted by PaulaG  

Very good! I used salmon that came in foil pouches and probably should have drained it better because I could not get my cakes to adhere together. I ended up having to add a bit more oat bran, but the flavor was fantastic. I also added in some... — shimmerchk May 11, 2008

Blue Ribbon Egg Salad

(1 person found this helpful) Posted by Bone Man  

Excellent! The individual ingredients are some of my favorite by themselves, so together they make a magical egg salad. My personal preference, is that I will dice up some of the yolk instead of mashing ALL of it into the dressing recipe. I missed... — shimmerchk Apr 4, 2008
