Cabbage Rolls - Real Hungarian Style

Posted by Redox  

I basically made this recipe as directed except that I layered the cabbage rolls in a crockpot with sauce in between layers, and cooked on low for 8 hours. Delicious! I used the optional sausage and bacon .... mmm. I did reduce the salt a little... — Margaret Joy Nov 9, 2009

Delicious! (and very easy!) This stuff is addicting. Just make sure the paper bag is air-tight or powdered sugar will rain down on your kitchen. — Margaret Joy Sep 20, 2009

Chinese Take-out Fried Rice

Posted by Gingerbear  

Yum! The secret is definitely refrigerating the rice the night before so it doesn't stick together. This dish was so tasty. Not quite the same as takeout, but close. I wish I had doubled the recipe! — Margaret Joy Aug 31, 2009

Mean Chef's Dry-Fried Chinese Eggplant (Aubergine) Nuggets

Posted by Sarah!  

This recipe is fabulous! The ginger is the secret I think. I also used some chopped garlic cloves. I served it over rice and couldn't have been more pleased. The taste is very ethnic, very different and very delicious! — Margaret Joy Aug 31, 2009

Inside-Out Stuffed Green Bell Peppers

Posted by taillights@insightbb.com  

Made this in the crockpot as others suggested. (2 hrs on high, then I stirred the cheese in just before serving). I cooked 1 cup of rice according to package instructions before adding it. I also added 14 oz. tomato sauce and sprinkled on a little... — Margaret Joy Aug 31, 2009

Pumpkin Apple Streusel Muffins

(1 person found this helpful) Posted by LikeItLoveIt  

These turned out great! Instead of 1/2 cup oil, I used 1/4 cup applesauce and 1/4 cup oil to cut down on the fat. My only complaint was that the streusel topping didn't last for all 18 muffins. It only lasted for 12.. Also, I baked them for about... — Margaret Joy Jun 6, 2009

Oatmeal Apple Cookies

Posted by Karen=^..^=  

These cookies were delicious! I made a few changes when I made them. I doubled the recipe and used 3/4 cup shortening and 3/4 cup butter instead of 1 and a half cups shortening (because I like the flavor of butter). I doubled the amount of baking... — Margaret Joy Jun 6, 2009

Low-Fat Banana Bread

Posted by SJG3483  

This bread turned out beautifully! Extremely moist, I thought the sweetness was perfect. I followed the directions and made one loaf. I didn't tell my boyfriend it was lowfat until it was halfway gone. He never guessed! — Margaret Joy May 28, 2009

Crock Pot Chicken Taco Meat

Posted by * Pamela *  

I have made this recipe several times, and was amazed at the consistency and flavor of the shredded chicken. Better than Chipotle or Qdoba tacos. Outstanding. Leftovers don't last long! — Margaret Joy May 21, 2009

Low Fat Brownies (Dense & Fudgy)

Posted by Mirj  

These were fabulous! I reduced the salt to 1/2 tsp and I also added 1/4 tsp baking powder just because. I baked them for the whole 30 minutes and they came out just like the title says: dense and fudgy! I actually prefer the taste and texture to... — Margaret Joy Apr 2, 2009

Stevia Coconut Peanut Butter Cookies

(4 people found this helpful) Posted by Roosie  

This recipe was great! I did use 2 and a half teaspoons of "stevia plus", because I don't have PURE stevia powder. Next time I think I will use 3 tsp, because it could use a tad more sweetness. I also used maple flavoring in place of the... — Margaret Joy Sep 27, 2006

Mocha Chip Cookies

(2 people found this helpful) Posted by ellie_  

Delicious! I couldn't really taste the coffee flavor. Next time I'll use 4 tsp. Here's what I did differently: I added 1 tsp. baking powder and 1\2 tsp. salt. These I mixed with the flour. I creamed the rest of the ingredients, then added the dry... — Margaret Joy Sep 2, 2006

German Chocolate Cake

(2 people found this helpful) Posted by Marg (CaymanDesigns)  

This cake tasted great! The 4 rating would have been a 5, but the frosting didn't work out for me. It didn't thicken on the stove even though I cooked it for 15 minutes on medium heat. I ended up added a bunch of extra powdered sugar to thicken... — Margaret Joy Jun 28, 2005

Pumpkin Oat Muffins

I'm giving this recipe a 5 star rating for the taste! Absolutely fabulous. Just what I was looking for! I did make a few adjustments, however. 1) I did not have pumpkin pie spice, so I used 1\2 tsp. cinnamon, 1\4 tsp. ground cloves, and 1\4 tsp.... — Margaret Joy Nov 8, 2004

Green Tomato Bread

(2 people found this helpful) Posted by MizzNezz  

This bread was pretty tasty for being made with green tomatoes! I didn't know what to expect, but I was very pleased with the results. One thing I did different was that I soaked the raisins in water for five minutes before adding them to the... — Margaret Joy Oct 25, 2004

Green Tomato Crisp

(2 people found this helpful) Posted by Rachel Savage  

I had never had green tomatoes before I tried this recipe, so it was definitely an experiment for me! I "mildly" liked it - wasn't crazy over it. I don't think I'll make it again, but it was OK. — Margaret Joy Oct 19, 2004
