Pumpkin Spice Bread

Posted by jmelyn  

Delish. I didn't realize when I started, but I only had about 1/4 c of oil left, so I subbed for the remainder with unsweetened applesauce. A tiny bit "springy" the first day, but by the next morning you couldn't detect the substitution. — CTRmom Nov 18, 2009

Autumn Apple Salad

Posted by echo echo  

Great salad. The dressing was a little too mustardy for my taste. I made it again with more orange than lime juice and less mustard and liked it very much. — CTRmom Nov 18, 2009

Cranberry Chicken

Posted by R, Richard Daggett  

This was good and resulted in very moist, tender baked chicken. It did not really taste like cranberries at all, which I was disappointed by, since I love them. I think I will try it again with 1/2 the onion soup mix, and some cranberry juice... — CTRmom Nov 18, 2009

Kree's Delicious Apple Pork Chops

Made with water. Nice recipe for Fall. My family thought somewhat bland, even with all the salt. May try adding a splash of vinegar next time to counteract the sweetness. — CTRmom Oct 8, 2009

Autumn Pear / Apple Pudding Cake

(1 person found this helpful) Posted by Pa. Hiker  

I wanted a different dessert to celebrate the arrival of autumn and apples, not pie or crisp. This was perfect. I used Golden Delicious apples and didn't bother with peeling them. They were tender without breaking down too much, and very appley... — CTRmom Sep 28, 2009

One Bowl Brownies

Posted by Susan Lee  

Absolutely scrumptious, besides being quick and simple. I almost always double the recipe and bake it in a sheet pan since it seems I am usually making it for big family dinners, church gatherings, or parties that my teenagers are throwing. . — CTRmom Aug 8, 2009

Flank Steak Sandwiches With Onions and Blue Cheese

Posted by Hey Jude  

Wonderful. And yes, flexible. I only had three quarters of a pound of eye of round steak, so I used half the dressing to marinate. I used two demi-loaves of asiago cheese bread, Monteray Jack instead of blue cheese, and added some leafy lettuce.... — CTRmom Jul 9, 2009

Homemade Lemonade

(1 person found this helpful) Posted by ~jb4~  

This lemonade was good, but a lot of work. I had to squeeze 8 lemons to come up with 1 1/4 cups of juice, and since all that effort didn't produce much for the crowd we were feeding, I ended up extending it with Country Time lemonade mix. We loved... — CTRmom Jul 5, 2009

Kittencal's Famous Coleslaw

(1 person found this helpful) Posted by KITTENCAL  

Sorry, but our family didn't care for this particular dressing. As I made it, I kept tasting it. I was really pleased until the addition of the last three ingredients. I used the smaller amounts, and even skimped on the black pepper. But, after... — CTRmom Jul 5, 2009

Sauerkraut Casserole

Posted by DiB's  

My mother made this for us when we were growing up, and it was especially a hit with the teenagers. Now my teenagers and their friends all love it. We make the mashed potatoes using instant flakes and onion salt rather than regular salt. We use... — CTRmom May 22, 2009

Tomatillo Salsa

I am assigning no stars because I have not yet made this as written, but this is as close as recipezaar has to the recipe our friends Newell and Karen gave us for Salsa Cruda de Tomatillo, which is 5 star excellent. The only real difference is... — CTRmom May 22, 2009

Granola

My husband has made homemade granola for years, but when he found this recipe a few years ago the others were all forgotten. I can't believe we haven't reviewed it before now, because our family has been enjoying this recipe (sans raisins) for 4... — CTRmom May 21, 2009

Lemon Cake Squares

(2 people found this helpful) Posted by MaeEast  

Lovely. This is especially nice made with fresh Meyer lemons. I used real butter, and halved the sugar. Also, rather than the vanilla, I scraped the seeds from a one inch length of vanilla bean and added the zest of my lemon to the batter. In my... — CTRmom Jan 20, 2009

Chocolate Pumpkin Cake

Posted by Sherri L.  

I made this out of the magazine for my daughter's October birthday. This was GORGEOUS and tasted FABULOUS. I made it in three 8" layers. There was plenty of frosting to put 1/2 cup between each layer. It was difficult to get a rich orange color in... — CTRmom Jan 20, 2009
