Pepperoni and Cheese Crescent Roll-ups

Posted by ~*Miss Diggy*~  

These were very easy. I found that 1 teaspoon of shredded cheese was not nearly enough--I could not taste any cheese at all. Also, after 15 minutes at 375, the bottoms of the crescents were burnt. Still, I like the idea, so next time I will add... — Lydia's Mama Nov 17, 2009

Onion Roasted Potatoes

Posted by Carmen B.  

We loved these! I only had russet potatoes on hand, so that's what I used. Peeled them and used 1/4 cup olive oil. I'm not sure I had quite 2 lbs. of potatoes so they were a little heavy on the oil for me, but that was my fault. They had great... — Lydia's Mama Nov 10, 2009

Kittencal's Buttery Cut-Out Sugar Cookies W/ Icing That Hardens

Posted by KITTENCAL  

This was definitely the easiest sugar cookie dough I have ever worked with. My daughter was home sick from school one day last week so we made cookies all day. We made this dough ahead of time and popped it in the fridge to chill while we made... — Lydia's Mama Oct 28, 2009

Chocolate Covered Popcorn (Boy Scouts Copycat) Caramel Corn

Posted by wyojess  

I'm about to try it again, but so far this recipe has not been successful. I boiled the butter/brown sugar/corn syrup mixture for the specified 5 minutes, stirring constantly. Everything was going ok until I added the baking soda. Instead of... — Lydia's Mama Sep 21, 2009

We love these! I've made them about a zillion times now but I'm just getting around to posting a review. Everyone I've made them for has asked for the recipe. We do both the beef and the chicken. We've cooked the meat ahead of time and... — Lydia's Mama Sep 21, 2009

Bourbon Chicken

(1 person found this helpful) Posted by LinMarie  

This was great! I loved it so much I made it two nights in a row! The first time was a bit on the spicy side for us so I reduced the red pepper flakes to 1/2 teaspoon the second time around. I didn't have any apple juice, so I just used what I had... — Lydia's Mama Sep 13, 2009

4 Minute Spicy Garlic Shrimp

Posted by Chippie  

Om, nom, nom. SO good. Had some frozen, cooked shrimp that needed to be used and they worked perfectly in this recipe. Didn't have any Montreal seasoning so I substituted another seasoning mix that I had on hand and use often. I had about 24... — Lydia's Mama Apr 30, 2009

Thanks so much for posting an easy and tasty recipe for brown rice! This will now be my go-to recipe when I need a simple yet healthy side to go with meals. I halved the recipe (and decreased the onion to just a 1/4 of a medium one because I'm... — Lydia's Mama Apr 30, 2009

Blackened Chicken

Posted by SweetsLady  

I'm not sure what I did wrong, but this was just ok. I didn't find it to really have much spice at all and I also felt like the worcestershire overshadowed everything else. Thanks for sharing, though. — Lydia's Mama Apr 21, 2009

Citrus Barbecued Chicken

I'm giving this four stars because I personally thought the taste was just pretty bland. I felt that the amount of citrus was really overpowering and that's all I could taste. However, it was not good grilling weather here today. so I broiled this... — Lydia's Mama Apr 17, 2009

These were great. I drained and rinsed the beans to cut down on sodium and added about 1/2 cup of low-sodium, fat free chicken broth. With such a small amout of liquid, I only simmered them for about 15 minutes, but they could have used less as... — Lydia's Mama Apr 17, 2009

Creamy Tomato Soup

Posted by Nicole Brummett  

This was fab-u-lous! I don't think I'll ever be able to eat plain tomato soup from a can again. I only used about 1/4 of an onion, though, and I added some minced garlic to sautee with the onions. I used an immersion blender at the end in an... — Lydia's Mama Jan 25, 2009
